California Governor Gavin Newsom is set to launch a new podcast called “This is Gavin Newsom,” which will feature guests from the MAGA movement. In a recent podcast episode with conservative figure Charlie Kirk, Newsom expressed his belief that it is unfair for transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports. This stance has drawn criticism from within the Democratic party, with some viewing it as a departure from his previous progressive stance on LGBTQ+ rights. Newsom’s comments have also sparked backlash from LGBTQ rights groups and Democratic lawmakers, with some accusing him of caving to conservative talking points. However, Newsom is not the only Democrat to express concerns about transgender athletes competing in women’s sports, as others, including Rep. Tom Suozzi and Texas Democratic representatives, have also raised similar issues. The debate over transgender rights in sports has become a divisive issue in the political landscape, with Republicans pushing for stricter regulations while Democrats navigate the complexities of LGBTQ+ rights. Newsom’s podcast is likely to further ignite discussions on this topic as he engages with guests from the MAGA movement.
