https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/louisiana-request-denied-gavin-newsom-011246712.htmlCalifornia Governor Gavin Newsom (D) rejected an extradition request from Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry (R), who is seeking a Bay Area doctor accused of mailing abortion pills to the Bayou State.
On Wednesday, Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill announced an arrest warrant for Dr. Remy Coeytaux, a doctor who lives in Sonoma County. Murrill alleges that Coeytaux mailed abortion pills to a Louisiana woman, who ordered them online after learning she was pregnant in 2023.
We are going to continue to fight the illegal sending of abortion pills into Louisiana, she said in a video posted to X on Tuesday. Murrill said an extradition request had been sent to Landry, who responded, I am signing the extradition paperwork to bring this California doctor to justice. Louisiana has a zero tolerance policy for those who subvert our laws, seek to hurt women, and promote abortion. I know Gavin Newsom supports abortion in all its forms, but that doesnt work in Louisiana. We are unapologetically pro-life.
On Wednesday, Newsom quote-tweeted Landry and responded to the extradition request.
Louisianas request is denied, he wrote.

(44 posts)1. Question
How can you claim to be " unapologetically pro-life. , when you still have the death penalty?
The proper reply should have been "We are selectively, pro-life"!

Blue State Trifectas need to do when faced with Red State Magapubs trying to put their boots on our necks.
They get ALL of our tax dollars - they need to sit down, shut up and eat whatever shit sandwich we serve them.
