Proud to announce in Davos at the World Economic Forum that California has surpassed 2.5M ZEV sales. While Washington now cedes the global clean vehicle market to China, California is ensuring American workers and manufacturers can excel in the industries that will define this century.

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis. It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents. This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

She nailed Jennings to the wall with this. Good for her.
Screenshot of an X post by Acyn. The post quotes a dialogue: “Jennings: Let’s not get our knickers in a twist here” followed by “McGowan” saying the attitude is “insane,” calling for bringing people down regardless of party, and alleging a “giant cabal” that doesn’t have to listen to the law. At the bottom is a TV clip still with a man on the left and a woman speaking on the right, with on-screen text including “SUDDEN REVERSAL.”

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
