The internet went crazy mocking Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom's eyebrow-raising sitting style, with many noting that his extreme cross-legged pose was “crushing his testicles” and more.
It all started Wednesday on Channel X after photos surfaced of Newsom at the New York Times Dealbook Summit, where he took the traditional stance of seeing a woman's take on leg crossing on a whole new level. He didn’t just step over them, but literally formed a cross with his feet.
Apparently the Governor of California is taking a break from destroying the beautiful Golden State to destroy himself.

As you might expect, social media has exploded over Newsom's handling of his package zone.

“I wish Gavin Newsom was as angry about high gas prices and homelessness as he is about his testicles,” one person wrote.
Another wrote: “Not trying to brag but if I ever sat like Gavin Newsom my balls would explode.”

A third added: “I've never seen a man crush his testicles harder than this dude.”

Comedian Adam Carolla took the internet by storm with a post in which he compared Newsom's sitting posture to President Donald Trump's famous knee-high seat.
Language warning:
Trump's real ballroom is the room where he gives his balls, unlike leg-crossing pussies like Newsom and Obama. pic.twitter.com/fYozaDSNRE

“Trump's real ballroom is the room where he gives his balls compared to assholes like Newsom and Obama,” Carolla wrote.
Because you read RedState, you know we take great care in our reporting. So, we'd be remiss if we didn't note that Newsom apparently finds this way of sitting preferable, as we've seen several other instances of him doing this during interviews or speeches.
One was at the UN climate conference COP30 in November, the other at the Clinton Global Initiative in September.
Gavin Newsom flew to COP30 in Brazil preaching about climate change while ignoring the fact that the Palisades fire was caused by arson and not “extreme weather”. Is there a lot of hypocrisy?

So awkward.
