SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Gov. Gavin Newsom is running for reelection in California, but his latest television ad is airing in Florida.

The 30-second spot scheduled to air on Fox News starting Monday takes shots at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and his policies, while drawing a contrast with California.

“Freedom, it’s under attack in your state. Republican leaders, they’re banning books, making it harder to vote, restricting speech in classrooms, even criminalizing women and doctors,” Newsom says while images of DeSantis and former President Donald Trump flash on screen.

“I urge all of you living in Florida to join the fight. Or join us in California, where we still believe in freedom — freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate and the freedom to love,” Newsom says.

Newsom has said he has no interest in running for president?

He misuses the word freedom a lot.

What an insane, delusional, deceptive human being.

Why stepping over feces and needles Outside your door, is a sign of a safe and vibrant and inclusive society. Some leftist writer at the LA Times, San Francisco chronicle, etc. Probably.

I grew up in Buena Park in 50’s-’60’s and loved living there before my folks decided LA was too congested and moved us to Norcal. Been back multiple times over the years and it’s definitely not the same place as it was.

Come to California. Bring your kids and kill them!

No thanks!

[Deplorable American1776]

Join us in California, because we need sane people to move here to improve the quality of politics here. 🤓

I wonder how many cities in Florida have "poop maps" like this one...

[Fresh Wind]

Ah, California, where hazmat suited workers power wash the crap off the streets every morning.

Haven't you heard? Water hoses are racist.

[Eleutheria5]

Either that, or he really believes all that he’s saying, a sure sign of idiocy.

[Gay State Conservative]

Sounds good to me! Entice all those sophisticated NY/NJ/CT/MA “progressives” living in Palm Beach,Fort Lauderdale,etc to move to Kalifornia. The decent,respectable people of Florida are winners and the elitists of Kalifornia see themselves as elitists too.

Add ‘comedian’ to newsom’s resume’...

You forgot the map legend: Each brown marker represents a turd (a feces ... not to be confused — though easy enough to do so — with a Democrat-Communis). You can see where they are piled up along Market Street.

[Joe Brower]

Wow, this is rich. What brass. Newsom doesn't know what the word 'freedom' even means.

On the other hand, anyone gullible enough to buy this line is welcome to move; a little deepening of the gene pool might be in order.

I urge you in Florida to join the fight.

They were only doing UNDOCUMENTED SHOPPING. They needed something for their baby’s MOMMAS. When you have 30 baby’s MOMMAS it gets expensive shopping for diamonds and Rolex watches. It was Mother’s Day shopping...
