California Governor Gavin Newsom has once again shown why he can be called a poster boy for the woke movement.
Newsom politicized a post that could’ve been a simple and sweet message to wish his wife a happy birthday. Instead, Newsom used a transactional term, “First Partner,” to address California’s First Lady, which raised mockery and eyebrows among many X users.
“Forever an honor to witness firsthand the amount of care, strength, and compassion you demonstrate every single day,” his post continued.
“Happy Birthday, Jen.”
It was nice of him to at least acknowledge her name, which for now, must still be allowed in leftist circles.
Happy Birthday to the First Partner of California, the outstanding mother of our four incredible children, and the love of my life, @JenSiebelNewsom.
I hope your day is just as remarkable as the work that you’ve done for California’s women and kids.
Forever an honor to witness… pic.twitter.com/PwHw6rOg0v

Newsom was predictably and roundly slammed for leftist pandering and ruining the moment:
Only leftists come up with these dumb names… “first partner”

Fact check: True.
It must be so annoying to be a liberal and have to say dumb crap like this

Vomit. First Partner’ is right. She’s his business partner in dismantling CA. From pushing radical policies in schools to profiting off the destruction of our children and families… they’re a team. And we’re all paying the price.

Total Clinton vibes.
“Partner”? — Is she a cowboy, trans or a business partner?

I think you mean “birthing person” not mother.

Every Californian cringes every time we hear “first partner”. I think it says something very dark that you would remove the honor of “wife” or “lady” and replace it with such a sterile term. https://t.co/mIYQHkMG7U

100% It’s very Orwellian, inauthentic and creepy.
Chest feeders. Birthing person. Partner.
The only time they feel comfortable saying “woman” or “lady” is when it’s a male demanding to be called one. https://t.co/nvaHVRxc7E

His wife has been reduced to “First Partner.”
Democrats have a fetish for erasing women. https://t.co/7Dwa1kLIZy pic.twitter.com/58UBFwDvbF
