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.

Wow! Newsome, the Nuisance is really, really gunning to replace Slo-Joe as the Destructor in Chief of the US. Golly gee, think of his campaign slogans. “I can do for your country just what I did to California”!
Such a deal!
We need a law that before you can run for another office you have to give up whatever office you currently hold.
If he’s “Running” for another office he is cheating his constituents as he is not fully concentrating on the current office.
I suppose that Gov nuisance is talking through his hat, or, he thinks he is the President.
gov nuisance’s authority and scope of influence ends at the Oregon, Nevada and Arizona borders.
You are off base with Governor Abbott.
You must not know much about him.
Texas will NEVER be like CA. Period. End Trans.
Um, most Texans despise California. Even those considered left in Texas, most of whom are to the right of Republicans in most Blue states. (Austin, Houston, and Dallas proper - not the burbs - excepted.) All Newsome probably did is boost Abbott’s overall approval in Texas.
The target audience is suburban women voters
The only reason to buy the Austin American-Birdcage Liner is a TP shortage and running out of leaves and bark.
Looks like Governor Brylcream is running in ‘24.First DeSantis and now Abbott.
When this Chihuahua yaps the other governors should all use the same graphic by way of response - a collage of a half dozen pictures of homeless camps, public drug use and crime scenes with a big U-Haul superimposed in the center.
“California, there I go”
His constituents don’t care
Don’t know but I think he’s using campaign funds. On the one hand, a donor might not be pleased about their donations being used in communications that by definition aren’t going to help him get re-elected, since it’s out of state media. On the other hand, I think the real purpose is to raise his visibility in those states because he’s going to run for president
Newsom is starting a pissing contest with TEXAS....
NOT smart.
That is correct. He is all they’ve got (how pathetic is that?); I’ve felt this for a long time.
Complaints about the solar panels that are at the end of their useful life all over So Calif-——NO WHERE to take them-—cannot be recycled—no landfill will take them.
Newsom is an arrogant elitist twit. What do you expect when he’s related to Nasty
P. Lousy?
In my mind, letting the Left get away with using the term “gun violence” plays right into their dirty game of blaming guns for the evil actions of criminals instead of the criminals themselves!
What is “gun violence”?
Gavin’s just pissed that he’s losing his taxpayers and businesses to Texas in droves.
The China has way more money the soros
