Riley Gaines' blistering takedown of trans teen athlete's 'evil' mom
Share this @internewscast.com

The mother of a transgender track athlete competing in girls’ sports has been labeled ‘evil’ by conservative women’s advocate Riley Gaines during a fiery interview with the Daily Mail. 

AB Hernandez, a 16-year-old who was born male but now identifies as female, is dominating rival girl athletes at a two-day state competition this weekend, sparking shock and protests.

This controversy surrounds the high school junior and has upset many, including former President Donald Trump, who has threatened to withdraw federal education funding from ‘woke’ California because of the situation. 

The U.S. Justice Department has announced it is investigating the Golden State for allowing trans people to participate in girls’ sports.

Meanwhile, Trump ally Gaines pulled no punches when she slammed ‘progressives’ including Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom – who she dubbed a ‘slimy car salesman’ and ‘spineless coward’ – for enabling biologically born boys to participate in sports alongside girls.

She also called out ‘crazy unhinged trans activists’ for creating chaos. 

Hernandez, who lives in Jurupa Valley, 60 miles east of Los Angeles, trounced her rivals during in sweltering heat on the first day of the California Interscholastic Federation games at Buchanan High School in Clovis, 13 miles north of Fresno.

She competed in the long, triple and high jump events on Friday, May 30, at the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) State Track & Field Championships and led all three events going into Saturday’s schedule.

Protestors were gathered outside the school stadium with some wearing ‘Save Girls’ Sports’ T-shirts. A light aircraft buzzed overhead pulling a banner that read: ‘No Boys in Girls’ Sports!’

CIF representatives at previous track meets have told girls to remove t-shirts with messages protesting the organization and have banned signs to quash protests.

Gaines hit headlines in 2022 as a competitive swimmer for University of Kentucky in the 200-yard NCAA freestyle championship against University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, a biological male who lives as a woman. 

The 25-year-old quickly became an outspoken critic against transgender athletes competing in women’s sport and has hailed Trump’s ‘Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sport’ executive order which he signed February. 

Gaines, host of the Gains for Girls podcast on OutKick, gave a searing indictment of Hernandez’s mother, Nereyda Hernandez, 43.

‘His mom is a pretty evil person,’ Gaines declared. ‘I believe she is using her son to live out some fantasy or dream that maybe she had. 

‘She has lied to AB in affirming his identity – the total façade – and in the process has harmed real women.

‘I have empathy for AB. He’s a victim as well. But that doesn’t give him the right to trample on women in the process to fulfill his happiness.

‘AB Hernandez is of course not the first boy to compete in the state of California – whether it’s track and field, whatever sport it may be,’ commented Gaines.

‘He is following the rules. So I don’t have any animosity or hatred or wish any sort of ill will on the boy. Ultimately, it’s the rules that are the problem.

‘Harm [is] being done because of his acceptance into women’s sports and women’s spaces.

‘That’s what has been relayed to me by many of the girls who have competed against AB.’

Hernandez’s mother recently posted to social media: ‘My child is not a threat; SHE IS LIGHT!!! As AB’s mother, I will continue to stand by her, proudly fiercely, and unconditionally.’ The Daily Mail has reached out to her for further comment. 

But Gaines proclaimed: ‘Sports are not about inclusion at the level he’s competing. It’s not about your feelings. It’s about winning, to put it as bluntly as possible. 

‘Women aren’t just a tool used to fulfill men’s happiness. That’s not what we are. Unfortunately, that’s what women are being used for again. But we say enough.

‘I’m not trying to rid anyone of opportunities. I believe every single person should play sports. But play in the categories that are safe and fair to everyone.

'He is following the rules. So I don't have any animosity or hatred or wish any sort of ill will on the boy. Ultimately, it's the rules that are the problem' Gaines continued; Hernandez pictured Saturday

‘We cannot prioritize inclusion over safety and fairness. That undermines the foundation of what sports were created to do.

‘That’s what we’ve seen a lot with this movement – women are just expected to roll over. Women are expected to be what they call inclusive and kind and allow these men into our spaces.

‘You have men who are described as AGP – autogynephiliacs – who are just men who are sexually aroused dressing as a woman, and we’re being forced to participate in that fetish.

‘And we are reprimanded if we even dare to question it. Women have had enough. We say no.

‘It’s not just women like me. I’ve talked to many women who are lesbians who say ‘We’re being used here.’

‘This seems like something that we see relatively often with this trans community, especially with minors who have transitioned.

‘You have one parent, or both parents, who look like they are using their child as a prop.’

She noted that so-called progressive states, most notably California, are in reality ‘regressive because they are destructive and harmful to women and girls’.

Gaines noted that girls feel threatened and parents fear they could lose their job if they speak out to much. 

She has spoken with some of the girls who have been competing against Hernandez and were pushed into second place. They ‘would be the rightful champion had AB not been competing’.

She added: ‘It breaks my heart. Hearing from them and what they have to say is the reason why I keep pushing forward [and] keep fighting this fight.’

One of the girls, who placed second behind Hernandez, told Gaines she felt ‘betrayed’ and ‘belittled’.

The distressed girl, she added, said the messaging from CIF and Newsom for not tackling the issue was ‘very loud and clear’ that she ‘wasn’t worthy of calling herself a champion.’

‘How could any person with a fifth grade understanding of biology hear that and their heart not break?’ asked Gaines. 

‘It’s about the next generation. It’s about protecting those girls. The girls are picking up on the discrimination that they are facing simply for being girls and participating in girls sports.’

Gaines believes, though, that voters showed their disharmony with trans issues by voting Trump into office for a second time last November.

‘People have had enough with the identity politics and with policies that harm women, with the harming of children, with the ridding of parental rights – California has been the nation’s leader on all of those things,’ declared Gaines. 

Former California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law in 2013 allowing students to participate in sex-segregated school programs, including on sports teams, and use bathrooms and other facilities that align with their gender identity.

A Republican-led effort to block that law failed recently in the Democratic-dominated state legislature. Another proposal that also failed would have required the federation to ban students whose sex was assigned male at birth from participating on a girls school sports team.

A Trump-appointed federal prosecutor for the Central District of California, announced an investigation Wednesday into CIF and the Jurupa Unified School District, which includes Hernandez’s high school, to determine whether federal sex discrimination law was violated by allowing trans girls to compete in girls’ sports.

Feeling the intense pressure from Trump, last Tuesday the CIF announced a temporary rule change to allow an extra girl to be in the medals in the three track events that include Hernandez. 

Riley slammed the CIF for ‘indicating that they would [still] allow the boy to still compete with the girls’.

‘It is common sense that boys and girls are different, that there are two sexes, that each sex is deserving of equal opportunities of privacy and of safety.

‘But now we have sitting Supreme Court justices who can’t even answer the question of what’s in a woman because they claim to not be a biologist.

‘Put your money where your mouth is,' she said Gaines of Newsom, pictured. 'If you say it's deeply unfair, do something about it. If not, then you continue to be the spineless coward that we knew you to be'

‘Put your money where your mouth is,’ she said Gaines of Newsom, pictured. ‘If you say it’s deeply unfair, do something about it. If not, then you continue to be the spineless coward that we knew you to be’

She added: ‘Fear is a large part of it.’ She pointed to the ‘crazy unhinged trans activists that I have found myself up against in many different scenarios. I’ve been attacked. I’ve had my life threatened by them.’

A proud Christian, she recalled five students recently being arrested in Portland, Oregon, ‘for wanting to end my life.’ Critics and trans proponents in Seattle threw human feces at her, she said.’

She described her anti-trans collaborator Trump as ‘the exact man you think he is’.

‘That’s why people are drawn to him, especially young people. There’s a sense of authenticity that you can feel, that you see on TV when you’re watching him, or when you’re reading his tweets.

‘I can attest to the fact that that is real. There is no face that he puts on. There is no wall that he puts up. What you see is very much what you get.

‘He has made it very clear his intention of protecting children, of protecting parental rights, of protecting the rights of women.’

She pointed to the Take It Down Act, proposed by Trump and First Lady Melania in May to protect women and children online exploitation.

Although Gov. Newsom recently called transgender athletes competing against girls’ ‘deeply unfair’ – a tougher tone than earlier comments – Gaines insisted he hasn’t done anything so resolved the issue.

‘Put your money where your mouth is,’ she said of the governor. ‘If you say it’s deeply unfair, do something about it. If not, then you continue to be the spineless coward that we knew you to be.

‘He’s continued to sit on the fence, wink at both sides, like he’s done on every topic over the past few years, including Covid. That’s what he does best. He’s like a slimy car salesman.

‘This will be made very clear to the rest of the public – which matters if he plans to run in 2028 for president, which I believe he has angled himself to do.’

Trump, however, is going to put Gavin Newsom in a position ‘where he can no longer sit on the fence, which I think is really beneficial for the American people to see’, she concluded.
