the article has several other quotes from him, but that one is pretty much enough to tell you all you need to know.
my lawyer has advised me to state that I believe murder is bad. also, fuck Charlie Kirk, and fuck anyone who's working to whitewash his image.
Man Newsom is such a clown with this vanilla type statement. Bro is definitely gearing up to run for president
Lmao, as is his PR stunts about TRUMP, is going to help him win the election. and people in the cali, city subs are complaining hes ignoring CALI because of this.
The unfortunate thing about Newsom is I respected him as San Fran mayor. Not sure where he went off the rails.
Well, kirk got took care of the way his people would have taken care of people.
And, the 2A was used just the way he wanted.
Everyone should rejoice!
Gavin Newsom said that? Yikes
he has hosted right wingers on a pod-cast, not surprised, he represent the status quo of the racist old guard DNC(which was then a republican lite before they kinda trickled into the DNC.
Yeah, I'm not gonna vote for him
Newsom launched a podcast earlier this year.
if you were launching a podcast, you'd put a lot of thought into the first episode, right? it introduces the show to people, gives an example of what the rest of the episodes will be like.
Newsom's guest on that first episode was Charlie Kirk.
and it was a very friendly interview. Newsom said he "completely aligns" with Kirk on trans issues:
Newsom praising Kirk like this wasn't surprising at all, if you've followed any of the critical coverage about him. he's been trying out his "post like Trump" shtick which had a bunch of MSNBC viewers clapping like trained seals, but it can't cover up his fundamental character. he's allegedly a Democrat, but he's also a fucking vile excuse for a human being. he completely lacks any principles or morals and will do or say anything if he thinks it will help him get elected president.
There is nothing centrist about supporting his hate.
"The decline of American men" simply means these fucksticks are pissed they don't just get whatever they want. I have no issue with D/s, but that's a consent thing, not a default.
Like, my ex-wife still wears my substantial (1.5kg) wedding collar 14 years later, but I still respect her agency. And I did most of the cooking while we were together.
the only mention of "centrist" in the paragraph I quoted was "centrist columnist Ezra Klein"
so I'm not really sure what your point is. are you saying Ezra Klein isn't a centrist, but instead farther to the right?
