President Donald Trump has threatened to fine California California Gavin Newsom over a transgender athlete competing in a girls’ competition.
“A Biological Male competed in California Girls State Finals, WINNING BIG, despite the fact that they were warned by me not to do so,” Trump wrote in a Truth social post early Tuesday.
“As Governor Gavin Newscum fully understands, large scale fines will be imposed!!!”
It comes after Trump threatened last week to pull federal funding in California if the state does not bar transgender students from participating in girls’ sports.
