Surprise, Surprise! After Decrying Men in Women’s Sports, Liar Newsom Has No Plan to Make Things ‘Fair’ – Twitchy

A month ago, California Governor Gavin Newsom upset the Democratic Party by saying men don’t belong in women’s sports.

He’s right (as much as it pains this writer to admit that), but this writer was also skeptical that Newsom actually meant what he said.

The Democratic Party isn’t the party of women. It’s the party of radical trans activists and their sympathizers.

So you’ll be not surprised to learn Newsom has no plan for making women’s sports ‘fair again.’

Gavin Newsom made headlines last month for saying it was “deeply” and “fundamentally” unfair for men to compete against women in sports.

Least shocking news ever.

Here’s more:

On March 27, U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon sent a letter to Newsom urging him to warn schools they could lose federal funding if they did not implement President Trump’s executive order requiring women’s and girls’ sports teams to be exclusively female. But during an April 2 press conference, Newsom dodged questions about McMahon’s letter and legislation on the matter. 

‘I haven’t even read it,’ Newsom said of McMahon’s letter. Asked about bills voted down in committee the day before in the California Legislature to keep biological males from competing in women’s sports, Newsom said: ‘I didn’t pay any attention to the committee yesterday.’

He then said he doesn’t have any policy proposal in mind regarding transgender athletes. ‘We tried to figure out how to balance this. Is there a way to make this work?’ Newsom said of the competing interests at play. ‘We literally were talking to some International Olympic Committee experts … We were trying to figure this out, and couldn’t figure it out. And that’s my point of view—that I just couldn’t figure out how to, quote, unquote, make this fair.’

The way to make it fair is to keep men out of women’s sports, regardless of how they ‘identify.’

It’s not hard, Governor Brylcreem.

Classic Newsom: sound outraged, say the right buzzwords, then do absolutely nothing. He’s got the spine of a wet paper straw and the policy depth of a TikTok comment section.

Remember when Newsom said wildfire management was a ‘local issue’ and shrugged?

Yeah, that.

He’s a smarmy lying fraud

He is.

Why isn’t the policy on sports that the government stays out of it? Sports have their own governing bodies, they’ve been dealing with edge cases forever.

Because Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, that’s why.

He’s all words and hair. No brain no guts.

Nailed it.

He is not truthful, and he is not competent. I don’t want him as President of the U.S.

He’s the best the Democrats have right now, too.

Absolute phony.

“But under pressure to do something about it, Newsom admits he has no actual policy prescription to address the issue of transgender athletes”

That seems to be a popular position Democrats often take. Announce unpopular things, then promise their base not to do anything about. https://t.co/cj7JNVmHBz

‘But he spoke out against it!’

As always. I’ll give Newsom credit for something though. He is a good liar. https://t.co/zR2jrJOiR3

A very good liar.
