Albert Mohler: California’s Radical Experiment

Albert Mohler: California’s Radical Experiment

Author: Salem Podcast Network April 27, 2026 Duration: 1:00

California is governed by people whose moral sanity must be questioned.

Christopher Rufo, the City Journal recently published a piece with this headline: “California provides sex-change procedures to homeless illegal aliens”

The report looked like satire. Rufo and his co-author stated: “We discovered not only that the shelters were housing illegal immigrants but also that they were apparently housing a population of male-to-female ‘transgender’ illegal aliens, who had hoped to obtain ‘gender-affirming care.’ And, to our shock, they wrote “state and local governments are providing it.”

Providing it ... as in: paying for it.

It’s no accident that “a group of Hondurans who identified as transgender” end up in the same San Francisco homeless facility. Clearly: The words getting out.

The main point in all this is that the transgender ideology is marching onward, unabated

It’s yet another piece of evidence pointing to the great moral conflict of our age.
