California Governor Gavin Newsom has accused Elon Musk of estranging himself from his transgender-identifying son, Xavier, in a recent exchange that followed Newsom’s public support for transgender health care.
In a video message posted online, Newsom stated: “I assume you’re referring to my son, Xavier, who has a tragic mental illness caused by the evil woke mind virus you push.” He also added, “I have a trans godson. There’s no governor that’s done more pro-trans legislation than I have.”
Musk responded with: “I assume you’re referring to my son, Xavier, who has a tragic mental illness caused by the evil woke mind virus you push.” The billionaire noted, “I love Xavier very much and hope he recovers. My daughters are Azure, Exa (she goes by Y) and Arcadia, and they do indeed love me very much.”
