California Governor Gavin Newsom ignited a nationwide firestorm after publicly blasting Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill in a shocking, unfiltered response that sent shockwaves across the political landscape. What began as a legal disagreement over extradition laws has now evolved into one of the most explosive interstate clashes in America’s modern abortion battle. The confrontation centers around Louisiana’s attempt to prosecute Dr. Remy Coeytaux, accused of mailing abortion medication across state lines in violation of Louisiana’s strict abortion laws. Louisiana issued an arrest warrant, demanding California’s cooperation. But California refused, citing its telemedicine shield laws designed to protect healthcare providers from out-of-state prosecution. WATCH
