Newsom: They want to bring us back to a pre-1960s, maybe 1860s world. And you’re seeing it not just on voting rights—you’re seeing it on civil rights, on women’s rights, on LGBTQ rights. They’re censoring historic facts. They’re on a banning binge—Bud Light and Big Bird

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

For the second time in a little over a week, ICE officers reportedly shot someone in Los Angeles.

This time, it was a US citizen who ICE officers shot from behind after he warned them that children would soon gather for the bus where they had pulled over a vehicle.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

Elections should be decided by voters, not politicians rigging the game for Trump’s benefit.

That’s why Prop 50 gives Californians the power to decide if we’ll push back, temporarily, and ensure fair representation across the country.

I voted YES, and I hope you will too.

They are not the same.

Things are so mean-spirited right now, this made me tear up. In the gratuitously cruel age of Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and Mike Johnson, it's comforting to be reminded that there still are decent human beings that walk amongst us. Thank you, Heretic Coffee in Portland.
