Wow! Los Angeles County declared a local state of emergency in response to ongoing federal immigration raids. This allows the county to provide support (potentially for rent and legal services) to residents impacted by the raids. The vote passed 4-1.

Speaker Mike Johnson's goal with telling MAGA base that the No Kings rally is a Hate America rally and that it's filled with Antifa terrorists is to incite violence against the rally. He knows MAGA will commit violence. Then Trump can call out the military on Democrats to silence dissent.

Why is the U.S. Navy anchored at Venezuela’s coast?
The boats are NO where near the USA COAST so why attack them?

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?
