Why is Gavin Newsom siding with Big Pharma – again?

Thursday, December 18, 2025, 7:41 am | Randy Thomasson

Big Democrat Gavin Newsom has hired two vaccine-addicted ladies who used to work at President Trump’s CDC. These leftists did not work for you, but for Big Pharma by ignoring the overwhelming evidence of vaccines’ lack of effectiveness and of vaccine harms.

So Newsom is brought them on and is paying them your taxpayer dollars to try to create a rival “CDC” on the West Coast, representing Big Pharma and receiving Big Pharma’s money.

Democrats like Newsom will never allow vaccine efficacy to be tested. And they’ll ignore vaccine-injured children. But Newsom is rallying the dumbed-down Democrat voters in his quest to become U.S. president. And he doesn’t want science or love or lack of campaign funds to get in his way.

You and I will never forget Gavin Newsom’s Covid tyranny, with his inhuman shutdowns and forced “jab or your job” executive orders. Newsom’s anti-people actions were NOT based on science.

Yet, true to form, Newsom’s office is crowing about his “dream team.” From his Dec. 15 news release:

“California is bringing on former CDC Director Dr. Susan Monarez and recent CDC Chief Medical Officer Dr. Debra Houry to launch the Public Health Network Innovation Exchange (PHNIX). PHNIX will work to move California and the nation forward.”

In the same release, Newsom uttered these lies:

“California remains committed to science-driven decision-making, nurturing healthy communities, and protecting individuals’ freedom to make evidence-based health choices.”

The 2025 legislative session brought out the RINOs

Monday, October 20, 2025, 11:41 am | Randy Thomasson

Many pro-family Californians don’t understand why most Republican legislators in the California State Legislature joined the supermajority Democrats in approving AB 715, which will purge the fact of only two sexes, the natural family, and more from California’s K-12 government schools. After all, this would be the 14th statewide school sexual indoctrination law — so why did 28 of 30 Republicans vote “yes”?

Given the anti-family agendas of these authors, Republican legislators should have been highly suspicious of AB 715. And if they didn’t read or understand this deceptive sexual indoctrination bill, they should have abstained instead of voting yes. Sadly, they didn’t.

AB 715 was dressed up as an “antisemitism” bill. But that was just the cover story.

AB 715 is a product of the so-called “Diversity Caucus,” and its top two authors are homosexual activist Rick Zbur, who used to head the state’s “LGBT” activism group, and “unlimited genders” activist Dawn Addis, author of AB 1487, the “Two-Spirit, Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex (2TGI) Wellness and Equity Fund” bill.

AB 715 will be used as a sledgehammer against conservative school boards by making Education Code, Section 220, which includes and promotes “gender, gender identity, gender expression … sexual orientation,” a huge eraser of anything in its path.

Here’s how:

STEP 1: Transsexual “rights” are already in Education Code, Section 220, which prohibits “discrimination” of “gender, gender identity, gender expression … sexual orientation.” And Section 220 includes “any other characteristic that is contained in the definition of hate crimes set forth in Section 422.55 of the Penal Code,” which includes these words:

(2) Gender.

(6) Sexual orientation.

Then these words are further defined in Section 422.56:

(c) “Gender” means sex, and includes a person’s gender identity and gender expression. “Gender expression” means a person’s gender-related appearance and behavior regardless of whether it is stereotypically associated with the person’s assigned sex at birth.

(h) “Sexual orientation” means heterosexuality, homosexuality, or bisexuality.

STEP 2: AB 715 orders K-12 school governing bodies that they “shall not adopt or approve” any teachings that “would subject a pupil to unlawful discrimination pursuant to section 220.” Because the word “discrimination” is not defined in AB 715, and can be very broadly applied to be anything that offends “LGBTQIA+” activists.

STEP 3: Leftist lawsuits will use AB 715 to purge anything in K-12 government schools that offends “trans” activists, who have and will cry “discrimination” over real science and real history about human physiology, the natural family, and American history. AB 715 can erase it all.  

Republican legislators didn’t connect these dots, but SaveCalifornia.com did, and the “LGBTQIA+” certainly will. Let no one be deceived… “LGBTQIA+” activists wanted AB 715 so they could sexually indoctrinate children all the more. 

For AB 715 prohibiting any material that “would subject a pupil to unlawful discrimination” can subjectively lead to purging K-12 government schools of any teaching or depiction of man-woman marriage, boys growing up to be men, girls growing up to be women, the Christian foundation of Thanksgiving and of the United States of America, and more. 

At its core, AB 715 will erase history and science for millions of California children.

What’s more, AB 715 pushes pro-“trans” “restorative justice practices,” where “restorative justice practitioners” make “offenders” take responsibility for their actions, to understand “the harm” they have caused, to give them “an opportunity to redeem themselves,” and to “discourage them from causing further harm.”

Again, if Republican legislators didn’t know this, they should have at least abstained on AB 715 once they saw the pro-perversity leftist Democrat authors and heard how the bill was sponsored by the pro-LGBTQIA+ “Diversity Caucus.”

Similarly, Assembly Republicans should have opposed AB 86, instead of supporting this extreme, school sexual indoctrination bill. Newsom’s veto of AB 86 is to their shame.

AB 86 by Democrat Party Assemblywoman Tasha Boerner would have required the California State Board of Education to adopt K-8 “health education … instructional materials.” All based on the anti-family 2019 curriculum frameworks requiring kids in grades 7 through 12 to be positively taught to accept masturbation, oral sex, teen fornication, homosexuality, bisexuality, transsexuality, abortion, and more.

This one-sentence bill reads: “On or before July 1, 2028, the state board shall adopt instructional materials for health education for kindergarten and grades 1 to 8, inclusive, pursuant to the requirements of this article and in alignment with the health curriculum framework adopted by the state board in 2019.” 

To understand how bad AB 86 was, connect the dots:

STEP 1: Pass AB 329 in 2015 and get the State Board of Education to implement it in 2019: AB 329 (signed by Gov. Jerry Brown in 2015 and implemented in 2019 through the new “sexual health” standards approved by State Board of Education appointees of Gov. Jerry Brown and Gov. Gavin Newsom) teaches children as young as 7th grade that any consensual sexual behavior is “safe” as long as you “protect” yourself with a condom, and teaches children that homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality is “normal.” AB 329 requires children to learn all kinds of sexual examples and practices: masturbation, oral sex, teen fornication, homosexuality, transsexuality, and unlimited “genders,” as well as promoting abortion. Under the guise of “health” education, AB 329, dubbed the “California Healthy Youth Act,” is mandatory for grades 7-12 and optional for younger grades.

STEP 2: In 2025, write AB 86 so briefly, yet so specifically, as to expand the indoctrination from older children down to the youngest students by requiring the State Board of Education to adopt “instructional materials for health education for kindergarten and grades 1 to 8” — in full “alignment with the health curriculum framework adopted by the state board in 2019,” thus providing all the sexual anarchy and experimentation of AB 329 from 2015 and from the State Board of Education’s 2019 “health” framework.

STEP 3: In committees and on the Assembly floor, “sell” AB 86 as a simple update that benefits the “health” of younger children. Present it as so “simple” and vague that only smart, caring, pro-family legislators want to investigate it and connect the dots (no Republican spoke against AB 86 on the Assembly floor).

Kudos to all 10 State Senate Republicans, who voted “no” on AB 86 on Sept. 9. But it’s a head-shaking shame that this evil bill passed the State Assembly on May 29 with the “yes” votes of 11 Republicans: Juan Alanis, Laurie Davies, Carl DeMaio, Diane Dixon, Stan Ellis, Heath Flora, James Gallagher, Jeff Gonzalez, Josh Hoover, Alexandra Macedo, and Greg Wallis.

The only logical conclusion is they were fools for not studying Democrat-authored bills but still voting for them, or RINOs (Republicans In Name Only) trying to curry favor with “LGBTQIA+” activists in their districts.

What to do about RINOs? Replace them by refusing to support them.

Having a Democrat win the seat for a term will allow you to help expose their evil deeds, and importantly, give you motivation to recruit and support a conservative, constitutional, pro-family fighter to win in the next election.
