Newsom: "This is a historically unpopular president. His policies are even more unpopular than him. In every core category he's underwater. He who promised to make us healthier & wealthier & we're poorer and sicker ... He knows he's lose midterms so he's trying to rig it before 1 vote is cast"

Philip K. Dick gets it right again.

Let's hear it for the vague blurs!
Tracy does the work, and would be fabulous on the Kenmore City Council!
For over a decade, Kenmore Mayor Nigel Herbig has been a leader on transportation, affordable housing, the environment, and government transparency. We are honored that he sees our campaign's values as those Kenmore needs to navigate the next four years together and for his endorsement! Thank you! ❤️
Merrick Garland will go down in history as one of the most feckless Attorney Generals in the history of this country.
My latest is about the latest revelations on the failed prosecution of Donald Trump, and why you should blame Merrick Garland more than the Supreme Court.
You Should Blame Merrick Garland
Garland's incompetence gave the Supreme Court the chance to set Trump free

Depends on many factors. Don't know off the top of my head.
I believe there are plans in our latest road standards, which would bring those changes when the road is redone, but I don't believe there are any short-term plans to make these changes, currently.

The White House plans to bar hospitals that treat transgender children and youth from getting any Medicare and Medicaid payments. The move would affect trans youth who have private insurance, too. n.pr/4qFa1mY
Trump pushes an end to medical care for transgender youth nationally

TBH I'm not sure there would still be a RapidRide program if Claudia Balducci hadn't been on the county council after 2020.
Girmay Zahilay promises to fast track the RapidRide R if elected Executive, which is otherwise currently set to be delivered in 2032 or later.
My guy Girmay doesn’t only take the bus, he wants to work with me to make them faster and more reliable! Grateful for his partnership on this to deliver on better transit service!

2nd in line to the presidency, yet consistently has no idea what’s happening in the country
Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos
Fight like hell. Neither he nor his ideas are popular, no matter what Fox News tries to tell you.
Trump is a paper tiger, he is not popular.

Call me crazy, but I’m starting to suspect that both of these companies could afford to be taxed a little bit more.

It’s crazy that this Vlad Guerrero guy has the same name as a guy who was also really good at baseball. Like what are the odds of that happening?

Even if you are leader of the free world, you don’t just get an MRI without a clear reason to do so.

There’s no such thing as a “screening” MRI.

Wishing MAGA "Christians" a very James 2:14-17 right about now
Whoever muzzled Walz on the Harris campaign should never work in politics again.

He speaks the truth in a plain way that speaks to regular people - something Dems desperately need to figure out how to do.
Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."
