Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) trolled Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) with an AI photo, taking a swing at Cruz for a post about California gas prices.
Newsom posted an AI-generated photo on X depicting Cruz as a lap dog, doted on by Chevron.
The photo is in response to Cruz’s X post. He posted a picture of Chevron gas prices in Texas. He slammed Newsom, saying, “Hey Gavin—the problem isn’t Chevron, it’s California’s stupid energy policies…”
Newsom’s press office responded, saying, “Chevron Cruz is a good boy.”
The AI photo showed Cruz with a collar, dog tag, and a big bowl of kibble, while Chevron pats his head. The dog bowl said, “Chevron’s lapdog.”
Cruz’s AI-generated face had a happy and satisfied look, surrounded by money.
This is not the first time Newsom’s press office has trolled a politician.

In April, Newsom mocked President Donald Trump’s limited-edition passports and released their own design for the “BEST LICENSE EVER MADE,” complete with a picture of Newsom and a large mountain range behind him.
The Washington Examiner reached out to Cruz and Newsom for comment.
