Trans rights are human rights!

Gavin has drunk the Kool-Aid.

Fkn hell.

Democrats keep chasing the right, and it never works. Newsom giving Charlie Kirk a platform isn’t strategy—it’s cowardice. Centrism loses. Progress wins. Follow Bernie’s lead and fight for something, not just against the worst options. #FuckTrump

thedalyplanet.bsky.social•3 days ago

He’s running for President. First a chat with Charlie and then no trans kids in sports. He’s running!

tchristianphoto.bsky.social•3 days ago

He could've easily had the 2028 Democratic nomination, but he just threw all his future political potential into the trash.

densetsu-no-baka.bsky.social•3 days ago

Nah, he never had a chance if Tim Walz or AOC were to run. But yeah, his decision to so much as deign to acknowledge Kirk's existence as a human being instead of regarding him as the sentient human bile he is is beyond questionable...

tchristianphoto.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'd like to think that at best it's Newsom's attempt to reach across the aisle to find common ground with conservatives in an attempt to put an end to Trump's MAGA movement, but Kirk is indeed vile and the optics are utter shit.

maatkarma13.bsky.social•2 days ago

That part!!@ Dems except for Crockett, AOC and Green are the only ones fighting back. So sad. I'm tired of them normalizing this bullshyt.😡

ctryoverparty123.bsky.social•2 days ago

THIS IS OUR SELMA! Elected Democrats are asking We the People display our outrage by asking us to protest & put ourselves in the path of danger. THEY MUST WALK THE WALK, NOT TALK THE TALK. This is the time! Elected Democrats and Independents must be brave. WALK THIS BRIDGE WITH US!!!!!!

tjl77.bsky.social•2 days ago

I don't normalize bigotry against trans women either, but they sure shouldn't be competing in sports against cisgender women if they're 6'4" with 20 inch biceps.

applegrrl.bsky.social•3 days ago

Oh Gavin, the thing is, We The people don't want these people's opinion, perspective. Whatever. I get it through, you are telling us you don't want to run in 2028...got it.

spacemanspiff66.bsky.social•2 days ago

Fuck Newsom, let him never become US president and kick him out of office.
Charlie Kirk must be be treated as a pariah.

ljaypara.bsky.social•3 days ago

Fuck you Newsom. You will never have my vote again. A nazi sympathizer is a nazi.

I think that was his way to meet people where they are and go on the right to wake people up from the right wing BS. Actually listen to the podcast first and don't trust what fox reports on

sunraa.bsky.social•3 days ago

WTF

phatosas.bsky.social•3 days ago

Another example of how lost the democrats currently are.

marleymalone.bsky.social•3 days ago

Greasy Gavin is straight garbage!!!

nikkorf64.bsky.social•3 days ago

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social Should be ashamed of himself!

tdonogh.bsky.social•3 days ago

Really ashamed and disappointed in Gavin. Man, what a screw up decision… unless it’s not.

as-i-ampeterdavid.bsky.social•3 days ago

As I posted in FB yesterday to the rhetoric of djT saying WOKENESS is and, trouble, it’s gone! We have the know Wokeness is an awareness of INJUSTICE against RACE, SEXISM, LGBTG! Wake up!! djT does not want you (just your vote) and he’s for the rich!

kd1948.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes so disappointed hearing this!

dean3815.bsky.social•2 days ago

As a democrat I don’t agree with men in women’s sports let’s stop being so extreme , it’s not fair

I have started a petition in Maine to divide sports by age and weight. If we can get enough signatures we are taking it to Jared Golden and Janet Mills. We are trying to end this culture war with solutions and actions. Please help us get the word out and thank you both so much for your coverage

As I asked on Brittany's post, who pushed the Democrat's self destruct button. Along with the feeble ten, including Moskowitz, who censured Al Green it appears that some don't want the Democratic Party to ever be relevant in US government again.

daystander.bsky.social•2 days ago

So disappointing

densetsu-no-baka.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm not gonna dump on Newsom too much because he has generally been doing a great job, but I do agree that Charlie Kirk should not be given the time of day by anyone. He's unconscionable trash

bobtowers.bsky.social•2 days ago

It’s time for the Dems to pivot back to the center bc going too far to the left has been a disaster for the party. The Hillary and Harris campaigns were infuriating examples of this failed strategy. They’ll expand their tent by staying on the center-left part of the political spectrum.

quietmia.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Hillary and Harris ARE in the center and you are using the example of Gavin Newsom & a RWNJ extremist to make your point? Lemme guess….you’re a white guy. 🙄

eeheli.bsky.social•18 hours ago

What do you consider “too far to the left”?

Disappointing doesn’t even begin to describe this. I thought Gavin Newsom would be above this. Completely outrageous.

livedexperience.bsky.social•2 days ago

WTF Gavin, let’s get this right from the beginning; let’s not capitulate to racists ass 🤡🤡. The DEMs need to fight back hard. The time for being nice is over. We need to take a tank to a gun fight.
