Hey, remember last year when the US Marines broke protocol and fired live ammunition over the I-5 freeway, striking the VP’s motorcade? Yeah, he knows where San Diego is. 😑 calmatters.org/politics/202...

What went wrong when Marines fired over Interstate 5? California leaders demand answers
California lawmakers are demanding answers after a live fire event over Camp Pendleton Saturday led to a misfire that rained shrapnel on I-5.

Wait a minute. Did Trump just tell an audience in Nebraska that Iran could “take out San Diego,” the largest military city on the West Coast? Does the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps wanna weight in? Maybe @governor.ca.gov?

So, let me get this straight: Gavin Newsom interviewing Steve Bannon for his podcast is not OK. BUT… Bernie Sanders joining political forces with Steve Bannon is OK. The logic of the Left, man. It’s almost like it’s nonexistent. 🙃

Why is Bernie Sanders lecturing Californians about taxing the rich when his state‘s top marginal tax rate is 8.75%? As someone who earns over $1 million a year, he’d be subject to at least a 13.3% annual income tax rate if he were a resident of California. 🙃

It’s well past time disclosure laws for social media align with disclosure laws for print and broadcast, and this is a huge move in the right direction. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

California tightens disclosure rules for influencers who post political ads
A new law will allow authorities to impose administrative, criminal and civil penalties on social media users who don’t make clear when they’re paid to post.

When did it become acceptable to shit on the largest *majority minority* state in the country? Imagine saying something like “Nobody wants two Midwesterners running the country.” Do you see how stupid and prejudiced that sounds? cc: @sarapequeno.bsky.social As the kids say, cringe AF. 😏

Steve Hilton (an English white man) made an AI ad where his opponent, Xavier Becerra (a Mexican-American son of immigrants), is in a box being sold at an auction. This racism has been made possible by Tom Steyer’s racist dog whistle attack ads that received zero pushback from “progressives.”

If you ever feel compelled to think to yourself (or say out loud, for that matter) something like “this country will never vote for a California Democrat for president,“ I want you to change out California with “southerner“ or “Midwesterner,” and then ask yourself how fucking stupid that sounds.

You know you’ve made an impact on the world when everyone from the MLB to Webster’s Dictionary to (the official page for) Dr. Seuss to musicians of all genres and politicians of all persuasions honor your passing. How humbling it is to have shared this brief reality with such an incredible human.

My favorite part of traveling is the now common standoff between airlines making 20 announcements begging stubborn passengers to volunteer to check their bags at the gate with little to no success, leading to inevitable delays in boarding. Bag checked life is the best life.

Turns out, experience and knowing WTF you’re actually doing matter. Daniel Moraff, Leanne Fan, Morris Katz, and everyone over at Fight Agency spent months running cover for their handpicked poster boy of “white working class” grievances. Let this be a lesson for the rest of us.

Pro-tip for the future: A sure-fire way to avoid needing to have your Senate candidate drop out of the race due to credible rape allegations is to not elect that rape apologist mercenary with a Nazi tattoo and no political experience in the first place. 🙃

California is going to be carbon neutral by 2045 — largely due to our Democratic leadership (like Jerry Brown and Gavin Newsom) — while New York is busy rolling back their signature climate laws. But, cute story, Darializa. 😑

California has one of the most progressive tax structures in the nation and already has an additional ANNUAL wealth tax on everyone earning over approx. $750k - has since 2012. A national billionaires tax makes more sense so Nevada and Texas can’t be tax havens for tax-dodging billionaires.

I’m appalled how ignorant some of the most respected political journalists / commentators are of California politics. A man spends 24 years in Congress, 20 of those on Ways & Means, was Secretary of HHS *during COVID*, and was on HRC’s shortlist for VP… …and they still can’t pronounce his name.

CarrieOh @carrieoh.bsky.social · 04/06/2026
If you’re confused why many *online leftists* don’t see Xavier Becerra as progressive, it’s important to remember that they don’t view things like immigration rights, violence against women, abortion, voting rights, and marriage equality as progressive causes.

If you can’t properly pronounce or spell “Xavier” or “Becerra,” you don’t know enough about Xavier Becerra to have an opinion on California’s primary election. That includes well-known DC pundits and NYT columnists. Oh. My. God. Your ignorance of California is stunning. 😑

San Diego is facing a $140 million budget deficit *and* housing crisis, but just can’t bring themselves to tax the less than 1% of property owners who leave their secondary residential properties vacant for more than 182 days a year and don’t rent them out. 🤡

Do not fall for the Steyer campaign’s gimmick to “vote for Steyer because Becerra is in the lead.” Nothing is certain, and a man who has spent $200 million attacking the fellow Democrat doesn’t need anyone’s help.

A few data points ahead of tomorrow’s election: - Xavier Becerra has received almost 12k individual donations with the average donation being $365. - Tom Steyer has received about 225 individual donations with the average donation being $576k. [1/_]

The rehabilitation of George W. Bush‘s reputation by young people who’ve turned him into some goofy grandpa has always unsettled me. The fact that so many of them are now saying “well the Venezuelans are celebrating this” just confirms that leaving the children behind was the point.
