The underlying attempt to take away the mystery of life and diminish our power as people has further separated us from remembering & reuniting with the best of us - with our power to come together & claim the power of knowing we are not alone.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also.

Making people feel they need to carry citizenship papers.

Invading our state with military troops.

Trump and Texas moved first.

Now California must act to counter a corrupt president who's ordering up seats in Congress like he's ordering fast food. Shamefully, his GOP sycophants are delivering.

On Nov 4, voters choose our maps.

Vote Yes on Prop 50 on November 4th.
#YesOn50

California redistricting is because trump asked Texas to rig the elections.

I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

Remember, it was the Washington Post who gave Bondi a thumbs up to be confirmed. Democracy Docket made clear from day one that she was an election denying sycophant.

No surprise at their coverage of today. Support independent, pro-democracy media today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.
