Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not.
He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.

Please use your phones to record politically/racially/sexuality/gender sensitive exhibits before the Trump administration desecrates them with its white supremacist heteronormative propaganda.
Because we will need to fix them when he’s gone to Hell.

Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.

Just a quick note: Federalizing the D.C. National Guard is not the same thing as “martial law.” I’m not saying that makes it good, but martial law is when the military *supplants* civil government, not just doing law enforcement. Don’t credit him with more power than he has (because he’ll take it)
