AUSTIN, Texas - California Gov. Gavin Newsom is targeting Texas Gov. Greg Abbott by placing full-page advertisements in three Texas newspapers.

The ads, which ran Friday in the Austin-American Statesman, the Houston Chronicle and the El Paso Times, feature a modified quote from Abbott about Senate Bill 8, which bans abortion in Texas after six weeks.

The quote from Abbott reads "Our creator endowed us with the right to life. And yet…children lose their right to life every year because of abortion. In Texas, we work to save those lives." The ad then shows abortion crossed out with "gun violence" written above it, Texas crossed out with "California" written above it and Greg Abbott's name crossed out with Gavin Newsom's written below it.

Newsom has also previously criticized Abbott about his response to gun violence following the mass shooting in Uvalde that left 19 students and two teachers dead in May.

If he died his hair black, Newsom could be Justin Trudeau’s twin, in both looks, and socialist politics.

Guess who is running for President.

Yes. Notice how he uses Gov. Abbott's title, but not his own, as if he doesn't want people to think he is "just" a governor.

He also has no clue that anyone outside of his California "base" either has no idea who he is, or thinks he's an Andrew Cuomo-level freak.

“What is he trying to gain here?”

He wants to run for president, and having the scalps of popular governors on his belt adds to his resume. He is trying to help out the dress wearing dirt eater in Texas and DeSantis’ opponent.

If you want to really get under his skin Greg, ignore him.

He will just get crazier.

I sure hope the people in Texas are aware that Newsom is a certified deranged lunatic that makes BootyJudge appear to be smart.

"Just curious, using his personal funds or misappropriating public funds?"

....... Because he is pushing early and hard for the Top Spot ..... I'm beginning to think there is Soros money involved to push him as the Dem Candidate for President ....
