  1. TLDR:

    * California Gov. Gavin Newsom is responding to Halle Berry’s pointed criticism of his decision to veto menopause care legislation two years in a row.
    * Speaking with members of the media at New Jersey’s Newark Airport on Thursday, Dec. 4, Newsom, 58, clarified his position on the menopause care legislation that inspired Berry’s criticism. He said that he’d spoken with Berry’s manager, and that the actress, 59, “didn’t know” that his administration plans to include funding for the proposal in his upcoming budget for 2026-27.

  2. Respin (a menopause care company that applies holistic and AI approachs) is owned by Halle Berry. In the proposed legislation, it includes funding for treatments outside FDA approved treatments, alongside cutting out tracking/reviews.

    Halle Berry is trying to shake down the government for some of that $$$ for her company. Very much a Trump Jr. move.

  3. We need to take a second to admire what a twisted world we live in right now, where no matter what side of the political aisle you’re on, your side’s politicians are beefing with Hollywood celebrities

  4. It doesn’t matter if she “didn’t know.” She was completely out of line. She hasn’t said a single thing about Trump and how he literally devalues women and treats them like objects but she has the audacity to say such a thing about Newsom, right before he comes out to speak. She was wrong and she owes him an apology.

  6. Attempts at conflict resolution without resorting to belittling, insulting, and becoming bullying and aggressive is a nice change to see

  7. Funny how he’s quick to respond to a celeb and not an everyday constituent 

  8. He didn’t just call her a mean nickname? Very unpresidential /s

  9. Newsom doing what he always does – Spinning!!

  10. Can he also explain why he was in New York talking, instead of in his home state after a mass shooting, and an ex-cop stabbed his son to death, occurring within days of each other? He does not care about us.

  11. Typical celeb: lemme talk about the one thing I’m interested in, without fully researching it, and dismiss every other issue in the world that the person you’re accusing of not performing enough miracles fast enough, has to also worry about.

  14. I keep seeing the same comments to the same posts. Reddit bots out en force for Gav

  15. You still devalue the homeless newsom every single day

  16. “Speaking with members of the media at New Jersey’s Newark Airport on Thursday, Dec. 4, Newsom, 58, clarified his position on the menopause care legislation that inspired Berry’s criticism.

    Lol so she literally went and attacked Gavin in a petty and impulsive manner, pretending to care about politics for the virtue points. Now it turns out she was never going to lose her funding, he just wanted other parts reworked, and neither she or her “team” bothered to communicate with him and they just “didn’t know.”

    Can’t say I’m surprised to see another celebrity cosplaying as some business activist and just acts like a child as soon as they don’t get what they want. I’d usually not care but she immediately jumped to being as hyperbolic as she could with “he overlooked women, half the population, devaluing us midlife.” Like, give me a damn break.

  17. He needs a better spin guy. This comes off as him calling her ignorant.

  18. Why reconcile, fuck her, she’s after the money, our money!

  19. She is greedy and selfish…that’s the motivation for her statements

  21. She knew the whole story. She’s just mad her healthcare company can’t take advantage of woman as easily as if he had voted the other way.

  22. He won’t be our next president, lol she thinks we’ll have another election

  24. Wait, does Newsom have a way that to explain that nothing he ever does is wrong? Shocked!

  26. Call me crazy but I’m going to go with Gavin newsome over a rich entitled celebrity that has never once talked out about politics or injustices in this country until right now. She only cares about herself and something he said or did offended her personally. Never once has she stood up for women’s rights before.

  29. True story: in 2000, Berry ran a red light, t-boned another car, and then fled the scene.

    Her relationship with the truth is strained, at best.

  31. He is a scumbag, a shitty Governor and a literal moron.

  32. Who gives a fuck about Halle berry? Of all the things I dislike about America I think #1 is how much stock is put into celebrities opinions. So many dumbfucks riding it out with Taylor Swift, with Kanye West, with Donald Trump, with Ronald Reagan. These people do not give a fuck about you.

  34. All Halle Berry did was trash herself. The garbage can is your new home now, hun.

  35. California has gotten worse since electing Newsom

  36. After researching a bit, I’m disappointed in Mrs. Berry. Trying to grift like Trump and his cronies. It’s unbecoming.

  37. Leveraging the ideals of a vulnerable population in order to profit off of a thing that is going to hurt overall healthcare costs/access for that vulnerable population is very… politician of Halle. How shitty of her to do this because she’s pissed about losing out on some dollars, this woman who has it all in a world where she is vastly outnumbered people who can’t take a shit without worrying about where they might be able to do it next. Greed just knows no bounds. Sick of these people.

  38. Halle could care less about women, she just wanted her grift pill passed and now she’s pulling a trump

  40. Wow a movie star being a ignoramus for their own profit? who could have guessed. Halle Berry has always been overrated imo. Worst casting for Storm.

  41. Halle Berry is a moron when it comes to health issues. She spent years claiming she had Type 1 Diabetes, then claimed she cured herself, then backpedaled and said she really has Type 2 Diabetes.

  43. No shit, she’s a literal idiot, grifter, and should stick to acting which she’s “okay” at.

  44. Aww babe, she fucked you. She reaps what she sows.
