Who else thinks that everything we’re experiencing with Ice and the National guard is because there were no consequences for the man responsible for the January 6th Insurrection.

San Francisco’s top cop said she’d consider charges against federal agents using excessive force as Trump threatens to send in the National Guard.

San Francisco DA says she ‘won’t hesitate’ to bring charges against federal agents

Her remarks came after Trump said he may send the National Guard to San Francisco.

My husband’s ballot came in the mail. Mine did not. I looked into why and…

I was purged from the voting roll.

You’re right Mr. Speaker, your party did defend this evil ideology this week. And it was sick!

Johnson: That is not the principles of the Republican Party. You want me to articulate them? We fought the Nazis, we defended that evil ideology.

Some one needs to tell speaker Johnson to just swear in Rep elect Grijalva because we all know that trump is on the Epstein list, why else would they be fighting so hard to not release it.

This is Rep elect Adelita Grijalva for AZ-07 tell your Rep to swear her in

I hate to say this, and most of you probably already know, but be prepared for mysterious bad actors to show up to No Kings protests and start trouble. The right needs to make the protestors look bad, so they will send fake Antifas to start violence and destroy things. It's their standard playbook.

He will not go against trump, the man is a coward and he’s afraid to lose the little bit of power that he’s wanted his entire life.

I sat in the room with Mike Johnson as Epstein’s survivors told their stories. He looked them in the eyes and promised accountability.

Now he’s blocking the vote to release the files. Swear in Congresswoman-elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social—now.

Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
