California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said the governor was denied entry into a venue at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Jan. 21, after being invited to speak at the event due to “pressure” from the Trump administration.

Newsom had been scheduled to speak with Fortune at the USA House, Davos, a privately organized event, at the World Economic Forum, which has been recognized by the U.S. government as the nation’s headquarters in Davos.

      It’s almost worse than him hating homeless and trans people. He doesn’t give a single shit about them. He’ll do whatever he thinks will get him votes. He’ll talk shit about trans people one day and talk about how he wants to protect them the next. I’m convinced that he doesn’t have a single belief that he wouldn’t give up to be the Democratic nominee in 2028, if we even have elections then. Nothing that comes out of his mouth is worth listening to.
