  • The wing remains small, but it continues to push to grow its influence—and its most significant elected proponent is California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a likely 2028 presidential contender, who platformed Charlie Kirk on his podcast to declare himself “completely aligned” with the late far-right activist on banning trans athletes, vetoed multiple pro-LGBTQ+ bills in California, and on a separate podcast appearance appeared to entertain the idea that trans people shouldn’t transition before age 25.

    This is why it’s important. This isn’t an aberration. This isn’t a fringe. It’s a test balloon. This could be the future of the party unless it’s struck down with extreme hostility. The party as a whole needs to know that something like this is not something we ignore, but something we view as a red line. As a last straw. So no blame them as a whole. Let them know that anyone in the party who supports this thinking needs to be expunged.
