who said that nobody ░░░░░░░░ his office has ever ░░░░░░░░ that phrase BURNETT Right ░░░░░░░░ So that was put ░░░░░░░░ him All right So ░░░░░░░░ s also rewriting history ░░░░░░░░ bit on his stance ░░░░░░░░ transgender issues which he ░░░░░░░░ had a point of ░░░░░░░░ on on his podcast ░░░░░░░░ just two weeks ago ░░░░░░░░ s where he is ░░░░░░░░ Clip starts Newsom It ░░░░░░░░ out in 2014 years

░░░░░░░░ is an issue of ░░░░░░░░ And I think Democrats ░░░░░░░░ lost that Clip ends ░░░░░░░░ Now he didn t ░░░░░░░░ feel that way KACZYNSKI ░░░░░░░░ That s right And ░░░░░░░░ in that statement he ░░░░░░░░ kind of making it ░░░░░░░░ like he wasn t ░░░░░░░░ in this at all ░░░░░░░░ s like oh was ░░░░░░░░ 2014 years before I ░░░░░░░░ governor Like you mean ░░░░░░░░ you were the lieutenant ░░░░░░░░ when you actively defended ░░░░░░░░ praised that law And ░░░░░░░░ of the videos that ░░░░░░░░ found was actually him ░░░░░░░░ not just the governor ░░░░░░░░ the time Jerry Brown ░░░░░░░░ the California state legislature ░░░░░░░░ putting that in place ░░░░░░░░ the time Take a ░░░░░░░░ to this Clip starts ░░░░░░░░ Thank you for what ░░░░░░░░ did on civil rights ░░░░░░░░ students in our schools ░░░░░░░░ rights in this state ░░░░░░░░ ends BURNETT I mean ░░░░░░░░ so then there s ░░░░░░░░ Then there s transgender ░░░░░░░░ right Transgender policies The ░░░░░░░░ referenced your own reporting ░░░░░░░░ Kamala Harris s support ░░░░░░░░ those taxpayer funded sex ░░░░░░░░ operations for detained migrants ░░░░░░░░ Remember here when we ░░░░░░░░ that conversation Okay It ░░░░░░░░ the presidential campaign right ░░░░░░░░ moment here So here ░░░░░░░░ is talking about it ░░░░░░░░ starts Newsom Trump s ░░░░░░░░ you She s for ░░░░░░░░ them KIRK And Newsom ░░░░░░░░ KIRK again Newsom Devastating ░░░░░░░░ KIRK Devastating Newsom And ░░░░░░░░ didn t even react ░░░░░░░░ it which was even ░░░░░░░░ devastating Clip ends BURNETT ░░░░░░░░ he s referring to ░░░░░░░░ ad that they put ░░░░░░░░ using the clip from ░░░░░░░░ when you were here ░░░░░░░░ a handful of years ░░░░░░░░ though he agreed with ░░░░░░░░ Harris on this very ░░░░░░░░ KACZYNSKI Yeah And it ░░░░░░░░ been the law in ░░░░░░░░ to allow gender transition ░░░░░░░░ for prisoners since 2017 ░░░░░░░░ Newsom didn t speak ░░░░░░░░ or say anything about ░░░░░░░░ until now five years ░░░░░░░░ when it became a ░░░░░░░░ liability And in fact ░░░░░░░░ signed a landmark trans ░░░░░░░░ rights bill for prisoners ░░░░░░░░ affirmed their right to ░░░░░░░░ this type of care ░░░░░░░░ he approved a state ░░░░░░░░ expansion that also extended ░░░░░░░░ affirming care to undocumented ░░░░░░░░ So his record on ░░░░░░░░ is really not matching ░░░░░░░░ rhetoric that he was ░░░░░░░░ out in that podcast ░░░░░░░░ Podcast All right So ░░░░░░░░ s he saying tonight ░░░░░░░░ all this KACZYNSKI So ░░░░░░░░ reached out to their ░░░░░░░░ They declined to comment ░░░░░░░░ the record They sent ░░░░░░░░ on background comments that
