One more time: As it’s not “weaponization of justice” for law enforcement to prosecute someone who committed crimes trying to rob a bank, it’s also not weaponization of justice for law enforcement to prosecute someone who committed crimes trying to overthrow an American election.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

We had a great meeting this morning--we talked about our meetings with our reps, canvassing for prop 50, our issues subgroups gave their reports, No Kings, and we had the amazing @chriswarcraft.bsky.social come talk to us about his campaign for CA Assembly District 72!

Republicans are lying about the peaceful No Kings Day protests because they’re desperate — the GOP is losing the shutdown fight while Americans reject Trump’s authoritarian takeover in huge numbers.

If you are someone that opposes renewables because you disagree with climate change, you’ve missed the main point:

Renewables are stand-alone better, cleaner or more sustainable way to power our homes, vehicles, businesses, supply chains.

It’s not political to not want cancer & premature deaths.
