Far-left California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is pushing a pro-abortion video ad that portrays an Alabama cop who pulls over a female, makes her take a pregnancy test, and handcuffs her on the hood.
Check it out:
“Alabama’s abortion ban has no exceptions for rape or incest,” Newsom writes in his Sunday X post. “Now, Republicans are trying to criminalize young women’s travel to receive abortion care. We cannot let them get away with this.”
Here are a handful of screenshots from the ad that spell it out:

According to Politico, Newsom’s ad targets a proposed bill in Alabama that would make it a crime for people who help minors get abortions without informing parents or guardians.
How are people reacting?
As you might imagine, quite a few responses from notable X users haven’t been too kind to Newsom:
- “This is unhinged even for you,” OutKick’s Clay Travis wrote.
- “Y’all want to kill babies so badly,” independent journalist Alex Rosen stated.
- “Please tell me this is a parody video,” “MAGA2024” activist Vince Langman added. “If not, it’s even funnier.”
- “This f**king moron just posted a video of a cop walking up to a woman’s car with a pregnancy test in his hand,” free-speech activist Philip Anderson noted.
Others couldn’t agree more:
- “This is total propaganda,” one user said.
- “Hyperbolic nonsense,” another commenter noted. “This is why we hate you. This is why we fight you.”
- “Gavin, maybe you should move to communist Russia where you would feel more at home,” another user suggested.
- “Democrats and especially Gavin Newsom love to plant fear in their base because they know that their base will fall for it every time,” another commenter observed. “This fear-based commercial is like an SNL skit.”
