Gov. Jeff Landry (R-LA) hit back at Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger after the rock star threw a jab at him.

At a Thursday night concert, Jagger, 80, made a quip that Landry wanted to return the world to the Stone Age, a common accusation against Republicans by their opponents. Landry used the wording to get in an insult of his own, hitting Jagger’s age.

Jagger didn’t specify what policies he was criticizing but may have been referring to the state’s strict abortion laws. Landry supported the near-total abortion ban, which took effect after the repeal of Roe v. Wade.
