California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom put distance between himself and his party, and found common ground with influential conservative activist and commentator Charlie Kirk, when the term-limited governor and possible 2028 presidential contender agreed that biological men in women's sports is "deeply unfair."
"The young man who's about to win the state championship in the long jump in female sports, that shouldn't happen," Kirk said California on Newsom's debut episode on his new podcast, "This is Gavin Newsom."
Kirk, a MAGA world rock star and ally of President Donald Trump and Donald Trump Jr. who leads the powerful Turning Point USA youth organization, asked Newsom, "You, as the governor, should step out and say no. Would you do something like that? Would you say no men in female sports?"
"Well, I think it's an issue of fairness," Newsom replied. "I completely agree with you on that. It's deeply unfair."
