Trump is on a slippery slope to a disastrous war with Venezuela. Trump must stop this escalation before it’s too late.

I'm filing a brief in support of the case against Donald Trump's illegal tariffs now in front of the U.S. Supreme Court.

California families and businesses shouldn't pay the price for actions that Trump never had the authority to take in the first place.

ICYMI — @govpritzker.illinois.gov just went on Fox and told them Trump is planning to steal the next election (that’s what the troops are really about), and said ICE is not going after “the worst of the worst” they’re “going after black and brown people because of the color of their skin”

BREAKING NEWS: The Trump admin just announced they are opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge for oil drilling.

This is exactly what Big Oil and Big Gas were hoping for when they donated hundreds of millions of dollars to Trump.

Now he’s handing them a blank check.

Social Security benefits are going up by 2.8 percent next year.

But Medicare premiums are going up by 11.6 percent. And the cost of food is skyrocketing, too.

Trumpflation is stealing your hard earned benefits.

Yes, Trump’s done enormous damage, but his neurotic preoccupations keep slowing Vought’s Project 2025 agenda. The liberation-by-king shtick is failing.

Instead, six in 10 Americans blame the GOP for the shutdown, the courts are checking him, and he hasn’t even wrapped Project 2025. trib.al/0oTTvbK

California is fighting back against the GOP’s attempt to defund Planned Parenthood health clinics by providing $140M+ to life-saving centers.

I refuse to let Donald Trump & right-wing extremists in Congress destroy Californians’ reproductive freedoms & health care access.

The grotesque metaphor of Trump tearing apart the figurative seat of American democracy

The horrifyingly haphazard manner in which he had the East Wing demolished, with no respect shown to history or the historic structure, is the poisonous icing on a rotting cake.
