Episode Details

Governor Gavin Newsom has brought in heavyweight lawyer Abbe Lowell to defend against a sweeping federal probe targeting his inner circle — a move he calls politically motivated, echoing Trump’s pattern of attacking opponents. Lowell, known for defending figures like Hunter Biden and Letitia James, is no stranger to high-stakes political investigations. The inquiry, which began in California, has already scrutinized Newsom’s former chief of staff — who recently pleaded guilty to corruption — and is now examining the finances of his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom. While Newsom’s team labels the probe a “fishing expedition,” the acting AG denies any political bias. As legal and political tensions mount, all eyes are on how this unfolding drama plays out.
