22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million to defeat Prop 40. Their combined wealth in January 2025 was $439 BILLION. By September 2026, it had grown to $722 BILLION. They're accidentally making the case for the billionaire tax better than anyone else could.

In important decision for separation of powers, court rules Trump cannot fire court-appointed US Attorney, which would circumvent Senate’s role of advice and consent. If Trump wants to replace him, Trump must nominate a confirmable candidate. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

While I am not a huge fan of NY Gov Horchul, this is clearly a master class lesson in how to slap Trump and the MAGA right upside the face. Appointing Letitia James to take over the investigation simultaneously signals faith in the person attacked by Trump and a commitment to uncovering the truth.

The Trump administration has delayed a final decision on Endangered Species Act protections for monarch butterflies, with a new deadline of June 6, 2030. Monarchs remain without protections while the decision is pending. The agency could act sooner, but this agreement allows years more of waiting. 😔

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Congratulations to the GREAT Boeing Company for producing a plane, the 737 Max, that was able to withstand G Forces and Strain far beyond what it was designed and expected to do. It was an amazing show of precise and powerful structural planning and design.
