If Majorie Taylor Greene really wants to move past the politics of hate and lies she should apologize to David Hogg and the other student survivors of mass shooting who she stalked and accused of being crisis actors.

Which would be the right, and politically smart, thing to do.

To Starbucks we say “No contract, no coffee.“ By leveraging our purchasing power, we can help create a more equitable workplace. Show your solidarity by refusing to cross the picket line. #BrewChange #NoKings☕️

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Ventura County is NOT listed as one of the CA counties the DOJ plans to monitor on election day. So far DOJ is slated to be in LA & Orange Co, Riverside Co, Kern & Fresno County. This smells like a voter intimidation & suppression attempt by the Trump administration. www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justi...

So the 🍊🤡’s DOJ will monitor polling places in CA on Election Day, Nov. 4. You know what that means? Get your ballot in the USPS mail ASAP or drop it in a secure ballot drop box located across Ventura County. Locate one near you here: clerkrecorder.venturacounty.gov/wp-content/u...

Donald Trump's puppet DOJ has no business screwing around with next month's election.

Sending the feds into California polling places is a deliberate attempt to scare off voters and undermine a fair election.

We will not back down. Californians decide our future — no one else.

Donald Trump's demolition of the East Wing is perfect symbolism:

You know when you watch a disaster movie… and the pres runs the country from a high tech bunker under the WH? That bunker is under the east wing. It’s called the Presidential Emergency Operations Center, or PEOC. And the ballroom is probably a cover for upgrades.

No one paid us to organize #NoKingsVenturaCounty. No one paid the attendees. We did take up a collection among the organizers to pay the DJ who was spinning sick beats, though. F U Mike Johnson! Ventura County No Kings was a joyful event as we stood up against tyranny. ✌️⚖️
Mike Johnson calls No Kings the "Hate America Rally" and claims "it was funded by George Soros and co-sponsored by the Communist Party and many other nefarious groups"
