"You supported an anti-abortion mayoral candidate in the last 30 days, " one wrote alongside a screenshot of her June 4 tweet, which read: "RICK CARUSO FTW [for the win]!"
"Did you mean to time this up to be exactly one month after this tweet where you endorse an anti-abortion candidate, " another vented.
Caruso is running for mayor of L.A. as a Democrat in the next election on November 8, and some future voters have expressed their disapproval over his seemingly changed beliefs.

In May 2022, the Los Angeles Times released an article titled, "Caruso donated to politicians opposing abortion in the past. Will that matter to L.A. voters?"
Within the piece, it notes how he is taking fire from fellow candidates and the political arm of Planned Parenthood Los Angeles over his previous financial support of politicians and causes opposed to abortion.
They have implored Caruso to clearly state and explain his stance on reproductive rights in writing and to issue a public apology for "the countless actions you've taken that put women's health and well-being at risk."

Caruso had written in a recent statement that he was "pro-choice, " adding that his position on the issue "has always been clear."
"We're not going to comment on any particular articles, " Caruso spokesperson Lex Olbrei doubled down to the L.A. Times when asked for clarification about his comments in a 2007 Los Angeles Magazine interview. "The bottom line is Rick has always been pro-choice and has always supported Roe vs. Wade."MSNBC’s Alex Wagner mistakenly reported on a fake statement claiming former President Donald Trump, who is banned from Twitter, would be welcomed back to the social media platform under Elon Musk, has learned.
“We will see about that ‘free-for-all hellscape’ promise and whether a certain Twitter account that once coined the term ‘covfefe’ is coming back, ” Wagner joked regarding Musk’s promise not to turn the platform into a “hellscape” following his acquistion.

“Side note, just a moment ago, Trump himself issued a statement congratulating Elon Musk on buying Twitter, ” Wagner added. “He says his account will be back on Monday.”
“Congratulations to Elon Musk on his purchase of Twitter. Many people are saying that change was needed, as the old management was too concerned with the woke agenda, ” the fake statement, which was also shared by a number of other journalists and Twitter users, read.
“I have been told that my account will be back up and running on Monday – we will see, ” the statement continued. “Happy to be able to engage with an African-American owned business!”

“In the rush of reporting on Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter we included some bad information about Donald Trump’s reaction to the deal, ” she wrote. “We regret the error.”
As previously reported, Musk’s Twitter takeover has sent social media into a frenzy ever since the 51-year-old billionaire first made moves to acquire the platform in April.
At the time, Musk criticized the platform’s permanent ban of certain users and suggested he would reinstate Trump’s account once officially acquiring the company.

“Permanent bans should be extremely rare and really reserved for accounts that are bots, or scam, spam accounts, ” Musk said in May. “I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump.”
“I think that was a mistake, because it alienated a large part of the country and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice, ” he added.
Trump’s account was permanently suspended in January 2021 following the attack on the United States Capitol building. The former president has since created a social media platform of his own, Truth Social, and has vowed not to return to Twitter even if his ban were to be reversed.
