Gavin Newsom’s father went to war with shadowy Bohemian Grove over members’ X-rated antics

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s father once ruled that the super-secretive men’s club Bohemian Grove couldn’t bar women from working there — preventing members from going au natural at the exclusive redwoods retreat.

As a U.S. Appeals Court Judge, William Newsom an issued an opinion striking down a ban on hiring women at the 150-year-old club, saying it was no justification that members might be stopped from walking around the encampment nude.

He added that if the men felt embarrassed, they could use the enclosed shower and bathroom facilities.

The elder Newsom made the ruling in 1986, well before his son entered the California political arena and ascended to the state’s highest office.

Here’s what everybody’s missing about Newsom’s statement to ‘low IQ’ black voters…

Every election cycle, super-rich, out-of-touch white Dem politicians try to convince us that they’ve got some mega magical connection with minority voters. They claim to understand minority struggles, speak their language, and know exactly what these communities need. How do they know this? Well, nobody’s known until now. Apparently, wealthy white liberals understand black voters because they also have low SAT scores and can’t read.

Yes, you heard that right.

Gavin Newsom just announced this to the world.

At an event that was supposed to focus on outreach to black voters, Newsom twisted himself into a pretzel, trying to present himself as relatable to black folks. Instead, Gavin wandered straight into the kind of tone-deaf territory that has swallowed Dems whole for years. Not the open hostility kind of stuff, but something just as evil. That soft, patronizing vibe is called the “bigotry of low expectations.”

For readers who may not be familiar with the phrase, it refers to a mindset the left encapsulates, where they believe minority groups need special intellectual or behavioral allowances because they’re so unskilled and unable. They dress up this bigotry as compassion or empathy, or even “rescuing.” But the real world sees it for what it is: condescension.

And Newsom just handed that critique gallons of fresh fuel.

Here is the moment that’s making the rounds online. While trying to emphasize that he’s a totally-relatable-and-not-elite-kinda-guy, Newsom basically called all black people low-IQ dullards.

FURIOUS Sacramento Sheriff TORCHES Newsom’s “Elderly Parole” Scheme After Serial Child Rapist Set Free

Sacramento County Sheriff Jim Cooper erupted in anger this week after it was confirmed that convicted serial child molester David Allen Funston, once described in court as “the monster parents fear most,” has been approved for parole under California’s controversial Elderly Parole Program.

Funston, 64, was convicted in 1999 of kidnapping and molesting young children in Sacramento County in the mid-1990s.

A judge at sentencing labeled him a threat to society, and he received three consecutive 25-to-life terms, plus additional time, effectively a life sentence, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

But under California’s elderly parole law, which allows inmates over age 50 who have served at least 20 years to be considered for release, Funston was deemed “suitable for parole.”

According to KTLA:

Funston was eligible for a parole suitability hearing under the Elderly Parole Program because he was not on death row nor was he sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. Depending on an inmate’s sentence, their first Elderly Parole Program hearing is scheduled after they have been incarcerated at least 20 continuous years and reached the age of 50. Inmates are also eligible for the Elderly Parole Program if they were incarcerated for 25 continuous years and reached the age of 60.

Funston, as of 2026, is 64 years old and has served 27 years in prison, thus qualifying him for the latter category, as he does not have a sentence that makes him ineligible for the chance to be paroled.

During a press conference, Sheriff Cooper blasted the parole board and Governor Gavin Newsom’s administration for allowing such a predator to be reconsidered for release under a program that is sick and broken.

Newsom Lashes Out with F-Bomb After Getting Roasted For Telling Black Crowd He Can Relate to Them Because He “Can’t Read”

California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom came under fire for telling a black crowd that he can relate to them because he can’t read.

Newsom kicked off his book tour this weekend in the South and things went awry during his stop in Atlanta.

The tour for his new book, titled, ‘Young Man in a Hurry: A Memoir of Discovery,’ started in Nashville on Saturday.

On Sunday, Newsom told a predominantly black crowd in Atlanta that he’s a ‘960 SAT guy who can’t read.’

“I’m not—you know—I’m not trying to impress you (pointing at Mayor Dickens). I’m just trying to impress upon you that I’m like you. I’m no better than you. You know, I’m a 960 SAT guy. And I’m not trying to offend anyone—trying to act all there if you got 940—but literally, a 960 SAT guy,” Newsom said.

“You’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech. It may be the wrong business to be in,” he said.

SHOTS FIRED: Newsom Throws Shade at Kamala Harris Over Her Relationship with Married San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown

California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom is already gearing up for 2028 because he took a swipe at Kamala Harris over her relationship with Willie Brown.

Never forget that Kamala Harris launched her political career in the bedroom as married Mayor Willie Brown’s mistress.

Kamala Harris is best known for being former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown’s much younger sidepiece.

Mayor Willie Brown admitted in 2020 to an extramarital affair with Kamala Harris.

Brown also admitted to giving Harris her first official state job.

A December 1995 clip from ABC shows Kamala Harris with Willie Brown.

“Excuse me, are you his daughter?” a woman ask Kamal Harris.

Harris looks stunned: “No, I’m not.”

Newsom threw shade at Kamala Harris during a stop in Atlanta this weekend during his book tour.

Gavin Newsom was elected San Francisco Mayor after Willie Brown served out his term.

Newsom zinged Kamala Harris as he recalled the good old days of San Francisco politics and Willie Brown.

“And for those who don’t know Willie Brown, you wouldn’t know Kamala Harris without Willie Brown,” Newsom said.

Newsom Says He’s Like Blacks Because He ‘Can’t Read’ And Got Low SAT Score

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) needs to work on his pandering skills – after telling a crowd of black people that he’s just like them because he can’t read and got a low SAT score. 

“I’m not trying to impress you, I’m just trying to impress upon you, ‘I’m like you. I’m not better than you.’ I’m a 960 SAT guy,” Newsom told Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickins during a Sunday night event promoting his new book. 

“And I’m not trying to offend anyone,” the potential 2028 Democratic contender continued. “I’m not trying to act all there if you got 940 … You’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech.”

Of note, the average SAT score for blacks is a 907 out of a possible 1600, according to 2024 College Board data, while white SAT takers received an average of 1083.

Gavin Newsom Says We Can’t Have Voter ID Because No One Will be Able to Find Their Birth Certificate

California Governor Gavin Newsom recently appeared on Jim Clyburn’s podcast and suggested that we can’t pass the SAVE Act which would require voter IDs because no one, including him, would be able to find their birth certificates.

As an aside, why does Jim Clyburn have a podcast? Like, why is that even a thing?

Anyway, Newsom’s point is stupid, and so is Clyburn’s follow up. He falls back onto the ridiculous Democrat talking point about women being unable to get valid IDs because they changed their name when they got married.

Townhall reported:

Gavin Newsom Wants to Run the Country, but He Can’t Keep Track of His Own Birth Certificate

Democrats think that being ignorant of the law or just plain stupid means we can never enact certain laws, specifically laws that Democrats don’t like. The latest target of their feigned ignorance and stupidity is the SAVE Act, which would require voters to prove they are American citizens in order to vote in American federal elections. Democrats believe that not only are Black, poor, and women voters too incapable of getting an ID (something they need for almost every facet of life), but now they’re pretending they too just have no idea how to keep track of vital records like birth certificates.

Gavin Newsom wants to be the next president, but we don’t think that office should be held by someone who doesn’t know where his birth certificate is.

Newsom Gives $90 Million in ‘Emergency’ Funds to Planned Parenthood

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill on Wednesday giving $90 million in tax dollars to Planned Parenthood, marking just the latest infusion of cash from the Golden State to the abortion behemoth.

A release from Newsom’s office said the $90 million came in the form of “one-time emergency funds for Planned Parenthood and other clinics providing reproductive health care services.”

The purported emergency was President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” — called the “Big Ugly Bill” in the release — which defunded Planned Parenthood for one year.

“California is taking steps to ensure people don’t lose access to the range of services provided by Planned Parenthood,” Newsom said in a statement.

“As the Trump administration’s Big Ugly Bill punishes women and community health providers, California continues to stand in support of women’s access to essential health services and reproductive freedom.”

But California has already vowed $145 million for Planned Parenthood since last fall alone.

There are over 100 Planned Parenthood facilities across California — and Newsom’s release said California would assist them as women obtain purported “basic health care needs.”

Newsom, a likely hopeful in the 2028 Democratic presidential primary race, has signed several abortion-related bills in recent years.

In September of last year, he signed a bill allowing abortion pill providers to ship the substances anonymously — a bid to help the providers avoid lawsuits from conservative state governments.

Barack Obama Throws Gavin Newsom Under the Bus Over His Homelessness Scandal

Former President Barack Obama addressed the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles, describing the situation as a moral failure in a wealthy nation and calling for policies that combine compassion with practical solutions.

Speaking about conditions in the city, Obama said the issue demands both ethical clarity and political realism.

“The same would be true. Let’s say here in Los Angeles, around the homeless issue, I think morally, ethically speaking, it is an atrocity that in a country that’s wealthy, we have people just on the streets, and we should have a We should insist on policies that recognize their full humanity people who are houseless and be able to provide them the help and resources that they need,” Obama said.

He argued that efforts to address homelessness must acknowledge both the needs of those living on the streets and the concerns of the broader public.

“but we should also recognize that the average person doesn’t want to have to navigate around a tent city in the middle of downtown,” Obama said.

Obama suggested that public support for increased funding and services depends on presenting a strategy that balances compassion with visible order.

“and that we’re not going to be able to build a working majority and support for the resources that we need to help folks like that, whether it’s drug treatment or temporary housing or what have you, we’re not going to be able to generate support for it if we simply say, You know what, it’s not their fault, and so they should be able to do whatever they want, because that’s a losing political strategy,” he said.

Team Trump Catches Gavin Newsom in a HUGE Lie During Back-and-Forth as California Governor Releases Thousands of Violent Criminal Illegals Back into Society

No lie is too big for California Governor Gavin Newsom, even when such falsehoods have the potential to put the lives of Americans in danger.

The Department of Homeland Security on Friday sent out a press release on Friday, revealing that 33,179 illegals are in California’s custody, yet the state government is refusing to honor the ICE detainers. The crimes by these prisoners include 399 homicides, 3,313 assaults, 3,171 burglaries, 1,011 robberies, 8,380 dangerous drugs offenses, 1,984 weapons offenses, and 1,293 sexual predatory offenses.

This policy by California has resulted in 4,561 criminal illegal aliens being released since January 20.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem demanded that Newsom change course and cooperate with the Trump Administration on immigration.

“I am urgently calling on @gavinnewsom to agree to NOT release the 33,179 criminal illegal aliens in California’s custody back into the public without notifying ICE,” she wrote.

“The crimes of these aliens include 399 homicides, 3,313 assaults, 3,171 burglaries, 1,011 robberies, 8,380 dangerous drugs offenses, 1,984 weapons offenses, and 1,293 sexual predatory offenses.”
