Governor Gavin Newsom announced a new lawsuit against the Trump Administration this month – this time over the Administration’s recent foreign and economic policy decisions. What is behind this lawsuit and what ramifications could it have? Plus, what happens when one of the most powerful states in the country starts acting like its own diplomatic actor? I’m your host Tess Abraham, and we are digging into California’s escalating conflict with the federal government, what it means for the balance of power, and whether Newsom’s headline-making decisions cross the line from leadership into overreach, on this week’s episode of The California Conversation!
