In a healthy society children are protected by women who in turn are protected by men who in turn are protected by men-at-arms, and the latter tend to disappear. Let's never forget that.

The President can expect Oregon to stand up to him at every turn. We do not need or want military intervention in Portland.

Oregon will not allow the president to normalize the use of the U.S. military in our cities. We all care about public safety – and the U.S. military cannot be used as a tool in political theater.

🔴 From deterrence to provocation: NATO authorizes pilots to shoot down Russian aircraft if threatened during major new border drills. Loosened rules of engagement and UAV deployments signal dangerous escalation.

The line between defense and offense blurs dangerously.

While Trump and the WWE cofounder seek to demolish the U.S. Department of Education, California is generating K-12 test scores that get better and better.

With universal meals, added literacy resources, and more, we're helping students thrive in and out of the classroom.

Announcing news that California's test scores for the previous academic school year show continued progress among K-12 students, Governor Newsom signs legislation to help ensure educators have access to necessary resources for reading and literacy instruction.

I’m joining 10 AGs in pushing back against the Trump Administration’s baseless and unprecedented attacks on nonprofits’ freedom of speech.

We won’t stand idly by as President Trump weaponizes government and tries to punish those who don’t agree with him. oag.ca.gov/news/press-r...

Charities and nonprofits are woven into the fabric of American society, in every state and community. Any attempts to target nonprofits for simply fulfilling their missions, no matter their beliefs or worldview, is a gross violation of their and all Americans' First Amendment rights to free speech and free association.

In a country founded on the right to hold different opinions than the king, the President's shameless attempt to punish nonprofits and charities who may not co-sign his extremist agenda is deeply un-American.

Donald Trump is breaching the Constitution and breaking the law.

A show of force so he can militarize our cities because of the 2026 elections.

We need to stand up together and speak up.

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.

If the National Governors Association chooses to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.

We should be standing as one against the idea that Donald Trump can call up the National Guard against our will.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.
