Newsom: Trans athletes competing in women’s sports ‘deeply unfair’

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, a defender of rights for the LGBTQ community, said his party was wrong in its support of transgender athletes participating in women’s sports.

“I think it’s an issue of fairness. I completely agree with you on that. It is an issue of fairness — it’s deeply unfair,” Newsom said in an episode of his new podcast “This is Gavin Newsom.” He was speaking with conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who asked Newsom if he would say “no” to men participating in women’s sports.
