Boycott Fox News and their major advertisers if they continue to advertise on Fox. They are a big part of this Trump disaster. They are the “trusted” news source for conservatives. I am so disgusted with their reporting and opinions of the murders in Minneapolis.

@schwarzenegger.bsky.social Governor Schwarzenegger, I received your No on Prop 50 mailer. I see no viable solution given while Texas and possibly other Republican led states are planning to rig our voting system. Politics is a dirty business, sometimes you need to get dirty.

I’ve lived through government shutdowns.
Under normal circumstances, I understand why compromises are made to keep the government running.

Trump is saying Americans shouldn’t pay more for drugs than those in other countries.
