On Friday's broadcast of HBO's "Real Time," host Bill Maher reacted to California Gov. Gavin Newsom's (D) recent ad campaign in Florida arguing that California is more in favor of freedom than Florida is by saying that while Republicans are "taking away" people's freedom on abortion, and that makes it "kind of a new ball game" on the issue of freedom, Republicans can point to coronavirus restrictions and stated that he hasn't always felt free in California while he has "felt freer in Florida."
