Activist and actor Jane Fonda not-so-subtly dissed scandalous former California gubernatorial candidate Eric Swalwell in a new ad for his opponent.

“Some politicians are impossible to trust,” Fonda, 88, narrates over a photo of Swalwell in the 30-second spot for his top rival, Tom Steyer. “Tom Steyer is a different story.”

“Progressives like me trust Tom because he’s been on the front lines with us for over a decade,” the two-time Oscar winner says in the ad. / Stephane Mahe / REUTERShttps://thedailybeast-thedailybeast-prod.web.arc-cdn.net/resizer/v2/VKA2QBVYGJFUHBLPVKNUZB2UUY.JPG?auth=20e7b7547e68e04eca950a10e6bd8894d1c023a00cee8ab9d2bd1b9d8d1374c7&smart=true&width=5803&height=3264" width="5803" />
