Gavin Newsom Refuses to Condemn Trans Hormones and Mutilation for Children

Jonathon Van Maren-Blog : Jul 17, 2025  LifeSiteNews.com

California's governor is trying to make his views seem less extreme on gender ideology while turning the state into a transgender sanctuary.

[LifeSiteNews.com] As the New York Times reported earlier this month, the Democrats are still in disarray over how to deal with the fact that their transgender policies are wildly unpopular with voters—and, indeed, may have handed Donald Trump the presidency. Any Democrat planning to seek the presidency in 2028 must grapple with this question. (Screengrab image: via X-LifeSite)

That, of course, means California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has been desperately twisting in the wind in an attempt to find a way to make his extremist views seem relatable, or at least palatable.

In March, he interviewed conservative activist Charlie Kirk on his ambiguously named podcast "This is Gavin Newsom," and he appeared to moderate his position on trans-identifying males in girls' sports, calling it an issue of "fairness" and telling Kirk: "I completely agree with you on that. It is an issue of fairness. It's deeply unfair." He added that the issue is personal for him, because of his wife and daughters.

LGBT activists were furious, but they needn't have worried. In July, Newsom refused to comply with the Trump administration's directive that Title IX protections applied to female-only sports leagues.

Like other Democrats, Newsom is trapped between public opinion and his public statements affirming the transgender agenda as the great civil rights cause of our day. In a recent appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show, the serpentine politician visibly writhed as he attempted to slither his way out of a direct question from Ryan. Ryan asked him if, according to his values, eight years old was too young for sex-change treatments.

"I mean, look ... " Newsom paused, stuttered, pivoted to the personal. "Now that I have a 9-year-old—just became 9—come on, man. I get it. So those (questions) are legit. You know, it's interesting. The issue of age ... "

Here he stopped and stuttered again. "I'm ... as someone who's been so focused on equality, broadly, LGBT rights, particularly on gay marriage, the trans issue for me is also novel. It's over the last few years. I'm trying to understand as much as anyone else. The whole pronoun thing—trying to understand all of that. That was like—what the Hell? All that stuff. I get it." His Cheshire smile quivered, but the point was clear: He could not condemn sex changes for children... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
