Yesterday was an amazing day full of protest and resistance. The No Kings Protests in Roseville, Auburn, and Lincoln were the largest so far. Unfortunately, multiple attendees in Auburn were injured by someone firing a pellet gun at the crowd. @placerdems.org #NoKings #PlacerCounty #California

Here is the quote that I provided CapRadio yesterday regarding Kevin Kiley switching to be an independent: "Kiley has been an ineffective legislator as a Republican and will remain an ineffective representative as an independent. 1/4 #PlacerDems #CAdem #Democrats #Kiley #Republicans #Midterms

I find it disturbing that Trump blatantly used Putin's playbook for starting wars, which is to do so right after an Olympics. Putin invaded Crimea days after the 2014 Olympics and invaded Ukraine days after the 2022 Olympics. Now Trump does so in 2026. #Trump #Iran #war

The murders of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good need to be a wake up call for us all that this is becoming the new normal under the Trump Administration. The @placerdems.org stand in solidarity with those who find these killings to be horrific and unacceptable. #Democrats #CADEM #ICE #Trump

The Mayor of Lincoln, CA, is openly trying to teach students that the separation of church and state is a myth and that safety standards were lowered to hire African Americans. She also tried to diminish Martin Luther King Jr.'s accomplishments by calling him a Marxist. #Placerdems #Democrats

While a government shutdown is an unwelcome occurrence for federal agencies, that is not an excuse for the leadership of those agencies to act unprofessionally and engage in blatant lies and partisanship. Their responsibility is to serve the American people, not play blame games. #Shutdown

White supremacists from the NorCal Active Club marched at the courthouse in Auburn, California, at the Charlie Kirk vigil. While they hid their faces, they took this opportunity to openly promote their hateful views. #Placer #PlacerCounty #California #CharlieKirk #Whitesupremacy #Racism

If you are canvassing for Yes on Prop. 50 in Placer County this weekend, we are using the new PDI Mobile app. It has a BLUE background. If you are using the PDI app with the white or black background, it will not work. Sign up for a canvas near you! www.mobilize.us/cadems/ #PlacerDems #CADEM

Happy Labor Day everyone! This is a time to remember and celebrate everything that has been created by working people and the gains that we have made because of organized labor. We have a middle class because of unions. It is workers who fuel the economy. #placerdems #cadem #democrats #laborday

I finally have some time to post about the @placercountydemocrats.org's successful 12th Annual Roosevelt-Kennedy Dinner on August 8, which was a sellout event. We were honored to have Pro Tem Mike McGuire speak, as well as Betty Yee. #PlacerDems #CADEM #Democrats #CA03 #PlacerCounty

Breonna Taylor should be alive today. She was shot and killed while sleeping when officers fired into her home. By seeking a one-day sentence for her murder, Trump's DOJ is sending a cruel and disrespectful message: that they don't value her life or that of her loved ones.

I managed to get one selfie. Thousands of people showed up to the No Kings Rally in Roseville, CA this morning. The largest protest in Placer County so far this year. People are fired up and ready to take back their country. #placerdems #Indivisible #cadem #nokings #Democrats #placercounty

The Placer County Democratic Party condemns the incendiary rhetoric and the stoking of violence from Trump and Kiley

On June 6, Kevin Kiley called Newsom’s consideration of withholding taxes “seceding from the union.” A day later, Trump issued a presidential memorandum stating that “To the extent that protests or acts of violence directly inhibit the execution of the laws, they constitute a form of rebellion…”

ICE arrested Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, a Massachusetts high school student who was about to graduate. When enforcing a law does harm to a community instead of healing it, that law is unjust. #immigration #justice #resist #placerdems

Our "Representative" Kevin Kiley, refused to hold an in-person town hall. So we held our own and invited Congressmen Liccardo and Huffman, who weren't afraid to face their constituents. Over 700 people showed up. Thank you, Congressmen for showing us real representation!

#WhereIsKevin? Rep. Swalwell calls out Kiley for tweeting when he should be voting in the committee he sits on. What happens if people don't show up to their job? They. Are. Fired. #FireKevin

How is this acceptable behavior from a President of the United States? This is shameful and yet, most Republicans will remain silent as the White House's public statements devolve into nothing more than bullying and tantrums. #Easter #Trump #PlacerDems #WhiteHouse #Democrats #Republicans #lunatics

Instead of overseeing the return of the four U.S. soldiers who lost their lives in a training accident in Lithuania, Trump attended a Saudi Arabian sponsored golf tournament. That is where his priorities are. #Trump #democrats #placerdems #military #veterans #oligarchy #gop #Republicans

In 1785, Benjamin Franklin wrote that "it is better 100 guilty Persons should escape than that one innocent Person should suffer." The belief that people must be protected from an abusive government is fundamental to our nation's founding and is enshrined in our Bill of Rights. #democracy

I was at the International Women's Day Rally in Roseville earlier today, which was organized by the Placer County Democratic Party and allied organizations. It was a beautiful day and hundreds of people showed up to ask #WhereIsKevin?
