Tim Walz broached the idea of having to call his National Guard to protect his state from the federal Gov't today.

Y'all ready for your state to have to defend itself from Trump Military tactics?

What's that called?

Congressman Doug LaMalfa was a devoted public servant who deeply loved his country, his state, and the communities he represented.

While we often approached issues from different perspectives, he fought every day for the people of California with conviction and care. He will be deeply missed.

Five years ago, our great American democracy was put to the test, and Donald Trump failed it.

The danger he poses was clear then, and it remains clear now. We must never forget that.

California is deploying new firefighting resources, technology, and prevention tactics following last year’s Los Angeles firestorms.

That includes a new five-engine strike team now assigned to the LA Fire Department and our first LiDAR-powered dashboard of forest conditions across the state.

I'm announcing a new executive order to further support homeowners, residents, and small businesses impacted by the LA wildfires.

Recovery isn't easy, but by cutting red tape and fast-tracking processes that once took months, we're delivering real, on-the-ground progress.

I'm announcing loan commitments from major lenders and expanded state mortgage relief for Angelenos whose home were damaged by last January's firestorms.

Deeply grateful to our partners for stepping up to help fill the gaps where the federal government is falling short.

In remembrance of last January’s tragic firestorms in Los Angeles, I have ordered all flags on state buildings to be flown at half-staff.

For the 31 lives we lost, the heroic first responders, and the resilience of survivors now rebuilding — California will not turn away.

The day the LA firestorms ignited, I issued an emergency proclamation to quickly unlock state resources.

Over the next 12 months, 28 executive orders followed to target aid, accelerate recovery, and cut red tape.

We will continue shaping recovery around real needs.

One year ago today, horrific firestorms tore through Los Angeles County.

The blazes tragically took 31 lives, destroyed thousands of buildings and homes, and displaced families and local businesses.

For almost a year, Donald Trump's personal police force has rampaged across America.

His administration has driven extremism and cruelty while discarding basic safeguards and accountability.

Now, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen is dead.

Alongside @padilla.senate.gov and @schiff.senate.gov, we sat with survivors of the Palisades and Eaton Fires at the Department of Angels memorial — listening to their stories, honoring what they've lost, and recommitting to the work still ahead.

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.

Trump scares the GOP aiming to motivate them to hit the ground running to win the midterms - says “they have the policy” (mainly refers to the border, “no men in female sports”, “common sense policies”), says if he loses he will be impeached, and essentially gives them the talking points.
