🚨U.S. layoffs have soared to 1.1 million through October, the highest since the Great Recession. Tech, retail, and logistics firms are slashing jobs as A.I. reshapes work and the economy loses momentum.

Trump said we were “winning” the trade war with China. Then China threatened to cut off rare earth minerals—and suddenly we backed down. Americans are paying higher prices, no new jobs have been created, and China walked away stronger.

Speaker Pelosi set the gold standard for effective governance, always doing what’s right for California and our country.

This may be the end of an era, but the policy and infrastructure she shepherded, her legacy, and leadership all leave us ready for what’s ahead.

The Supreme Court today questioned Trump's use of emergency powers to levy tariffs.

Perhaps they're finally realizing what the rest of us already know.

I'm not a big Gavin Newsom fan but I do like the way he's fighting back.

I just didn't like the way he treats the homeless people and transgender people. He could do better. I do like that he is for Universal Healthcare and I would vote him as President over Shady Vance any day.

Today officially makes this the longest government shutdown IN HISTORY.

Republicans control the White House, Senate, and House. This is their shutdown.

STOP THE REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN.
Vote all republicans out every last one of them 💙
That’s just another day for this evil man. Can’t wait for karma to catch up with him 🙏🙏🙏

All the pearl-clutching about Zohran Mamdani--by right-wingers who elected a half-senile old TV star president--is very amusing. For once the shoe is on the other foot.
I’m rather they ALL BE VOTED OUT FOR GOOD
