Mr. Rogers was considered progressive (“woke”) by the standards of his day, but all of his ideas that were controversial 60 years ago are considered normal today. THAT’S THE ENTIRE POINT.

From my understanding of things, we want Prop 40 to pass, and both 41 and 42 to fail. Spread the word, California! calmatters.org/health/2026/...

The billionaire tax could be defeated by two other tax measures. Here’s how
Propositions 41 and 42 are counter measures that would kill Prop. 40 even if it passes. Polls show voters support all three.

Wait a minute. According to NPR, Paxton is using an AI generated version of his opponent in an ad? That is open to so many levels of abuse, if not outright fraud, I don’t even know where to begin. But hey, maybe if politicians realize they’re at risk too, we can actually get some AI laws passed.

I hate when one claims to be pro-law-enforcement and also wish to send the cops after people who have committed no crimes, but just happen to do something you don’t like. Doubly so for wishes to send ICE, because that’s a much more specific and disgusting kind of threat.
