The speaker Assembly Member Rivas shared some poignant words, noting “there are more kids right now with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes playing in the NCAA.” So thankful to see these bills go nowhere, but it’s also wild to see the sheer ignorance of those who are supporting them. AB 844’s author had trash talking anti-trans right wing activist
Matt Walsh speaking on the issue…as if that was supposed to add credibility to it?
And the Trump administration has done EXACTLY NOTHING for ANYONE, ANYWHERE, with measles.
But they've had PLENTY of time to play potty police!
Can't wait until the avian flu jumps species and a million MAGAs die the two months.
FAFO, I say.
You can fold, spindle, and mutilate public health staffing, leadership, and budgets all you like but pathogens DO NOT GIVE A FLYING FORNICATION AT A ROLLING BEIGNET ABOUT "saving taxpayer money" and "returning value to sacred billionaire broligarch job creators", they really just DON'T.
Well, you see, it was very very important that they get the totally and completely objective viewpoint of a self-proclaimed "theocratic fascist." That, coupled with his incessant and frothing bigotry qualifies him to speak on trans issues.
Interesting might have voted for him, as a Democratic precinct committee chair I might have even campaigned for him. Now in the 2028 primary, I will be anybody but Newsom, if we are still allowed to exist free and still vote as trans in the USA. #FUGN
Fuck this guy. You get canceled because you're garbage and he's now been emboldened to show off just how much garbage he's been hiding all these years.
Honestly, even aside from Newsome's transphobia, just platforming Charlie Kirk is a despicable act. Kirk is a cruel and bigoted monster, the very picture of a "garbage person," and his whole organization is made up of truly malicious people.
The “Governor” of California is NOT a Friend of The TRANS COMMUNITIES! He’s cut from the same cloth as Kristen Sinema and Joe Manchin! He’s more concerned about his Wealthy Donors than his constituents! California voters should make sure he doesn’t get another term! 👿
Newsom is a douchebag. We need someone in the governor seat with true support to the lgbtq, and everyone, not just a facade for elective reason... His facade is crumbling. A lot of elected democrats need to be sent back home, Shumer and Jeffries first on the list...
1. Newsom can go fuck himself sideways with a chainsaw.
2. Bill who? Maher hasn't been relevant since ??? and has ALWAYS BEEN a misogynist. Remember, misogyny is the root crime underlying ALL OPPRESSION, literally ALL OF IT. I would come up with a witty imprecation for Maher...but he doesn't deserve my wit. Bastard hasn't shared any of HIS in decades.
3. One cannot both GOP and human in the 21st century. If one chooses to GOPMAGA, it's like willfully transmogrifying into an orc, or at least, into a malevolent nearsighted ambulatory septic tank with delusions of independence. Or one could choose to human, which isn't as much fun for some as being part of a legion of malevolent and heavily armed goose-stepping skibidi toilets, but is certainly more rewarding in the long run.
Harrumph I say, in the appropriate dialect of liberal old lady high dudgeon.
I am deeply disappointed in Gov. Newsom’s recent stances on this issue. I hope he can change his mind. Absent that, I hope that the existing laws of the state, plus the positions of other state officials, might keep California in the safe “deep blue” category, especially in the face of a hostile federal gov’t. But no matter how I look at it, California just seems a little less safe now than it once did.
Horrible. Trying to play both sides. Hold him accountable for his wretched decision and now wants us to believe he's really a good guy. A lesson in holding steady with NO!
I guess Newsom wants a society with clean energy, immigration reform, greater access to healthcare, and I guess some other stuff, but he doesn't think trans people should be able to participate in that society. And then he wonders why we "cancel" him because, hey, he supports all the other stuff we want. Is this guy really that f'ing clueless?
Newsom is talking out of both sides of his mouth and has finally exposed himself to the thinking community. Thankfully he is surrounded by others who still have a moral compass, and who went to bat for Trans athletes. Gavin, how do you say "Last term?"
At least Newsom showed his true colors before he started his run for president. Both in his being anti trans and embracing/aligning with Kirk and Brannon

brilliant point to have on deck, next time i encounter a bigot!
I remember hearing that comment about measles - so spot on!
A not-directly-related but another comparison I like: There are more billionaires in Trumpsk's Cabinet than there are trans athletes in the NCAA.
(Trump+Musk = Trumpsk, as if that wasn't already clear.)

I’m with you. I was always hesitant about Newsom. Now I see why. Disappointing.

Kirk is a human shaped protozoan, or humonculous, of the sort casually identified as "maliciously unintelligent".
Well said.

Dear Gov. Newsom and the Republican Party:
Eat shit.
With all 𝘥𝘶𝘦 respect (read that: none), Trans Folks.
Newsom is a douchebag. We need someone in the governor seat with true support to the lgbtq, and everyone, not just a facade for elective reason... His facade is crumbling. A lot of elected democrats need to be sent back home, Shumer and Jeffries first on the list...

"1. Newsom can go fuck himself sideways with a chainsaw." ROFLMAO! I'll have to remember that one!
Edit: "Newsom can go fuck himself sideways with ELON'S chainsaw."
I like that too, except I think Elon's chainsaw is actually a plastic toy. LOL
I think I would edit to say, "a RUNNING chainsaw." ;-) Although that's already implied, I think it can be delivered with a smoother rhythm.
He's such a hypocrite. Can't have it both ways

Newsom is just one pretty-boy scum sucker. I suspect his political career is over, at least in the Democratic Party.

At least Gavin Newsom is alone on his position.
At least Newsom showed his true colors before he started his run for president. Both in his being anti trans and embracing/aligning with Kirk and Brannon
Yes, up until now, I was thinking Newsom would be a good candidate for President, not now!
