Republicans have ceded their constitutional authority over tariffs to Trump voluntarily. They could have ended it at any time. They could end it now. Trump is not on the ballot this Nov, but they are. The only way to stop this daily tariff drama and insanity is to vote them out.

California member of Congress (R) LaMalfa died in Jan 2025.

LaMalfa's term ENDS Jan 2026.

Newsom will hold the election to fill the vacancy in August. Leaving Speaker mini-Mike Johnson with 1 less GOP vote.

In the meantime, there is a June Primary election for the term that BEGINS in Jan 2026.
⬇️
Bravo, Governor @gavinnewsom.bsky.social. No reason to give Mike Johnson a hand up with his tenuous majority. Newsom has delayed the special elections in the late Doug LaMalfa's district to the last date possible.

Newsom knows how to fight these Republicans.

Gavin Newsom sets last possible date for special election to fill LaMalfa’s seat
Choosing the late date means Newsom leaves Republicans with a thin majority in the U.S. House for longer.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.

They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

Also, Christian nationalists Andrew Isker and C.Jay Engel imagine people on the right don’t attack police because they “have families and jobs and mortgages and something to lose.” J6’ers, Isker says, “walked into open doors in the U.S. Capitol.”

It’s wild how much ICE and CBP have lost moral legitimacy in this country.

A massive "Hands off Greenland" protest is happening right now in Copenhagen to demonstrate against Trump's threats.

"The aim is to send a clear and unified message of respect for Greenland's democracy," organisers said.

“Respect for Greenland, respect for Greenlanders, respect for Denmark.”

Respectfully, to say "we’re fucked" sounds too much like you're capitulating to an autocrat to me, and I don't believe that you are the type give in so easily, if at all. I'm certainly not.

2/ let's not forget this. this is all on SCOTUS. these tariffs are comically, absurdly illegal on their face. but even if SCOTUS strikes them down in the coming days they've allowed to be in effect for more than a year, reorder the US and global economies. a one year dictator mulligan isnt democracy

“That’s slavery.”

Civil Rights lawyer @oliverma2026.bsky.social (running for CA Lt. Gov.) reminds us ICE detainees work in for-profit prisons for $1/day just to pay for phone calls to their families.

Cruelty is big business.

ICE wants to turn this 470,000 square foot warehouse in Roxbury NJ into a mammoth holding cell.
Love our Jersey activists speaking out loudly against it
And the ALL REPUBLICAN Roxbury Town Council who voted unanimously to oppose it.
