Protect democracy, our rights, the environment. Vote Blue! 💙 Lifelong Democrat. Originally from Pittsburgh, now in SF Bay Area. Proud cat lady. Will never understand why voters keep electing crooked lying Republicans who only serve themselves.

Apparently, billionaire influence is only bad when it's the other billionaire. Tom Steyer has spent more than $200 million trying to become governor of California, nearly three times more than all of his opponents combined. I wrote about why that should scare Democrats more than anyone.

Trump and Hegseth are asking for a record $1.5 trillion defense budget. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering right now.

Just unbelievable corruption. He said he would drain the swamp, instead he brought in the swampiest administration in history, declared himself Supreme Emperor of Swampopia, and ordered his justice department to essentially give his entirely family immunity.

For Trump and his friends: - A $1.8 billion slush fund, paid for by you. - A $1 billion ballroom, paid for by you. For you and other American taxpayers: - Millions kicked off health care. - Highest gas prices in 5 years. - Soaring costs for groceries and other necessities.

Republican C-SPAN caller: “It’s hard for me to say this, but I think if I can open up about it in public it might help others… I regret my support for Trump, and I should’ve known better. He’s a con man. A liar. The worst, most corrupt president we’ve ever had.”

Kamala Harris calls for an “expanded playbook” to strengthen democracy—including Electoral College reform, Supreme Court expansion, multi-member districts, and D.C./Puerto Rico statehood. Republicans spent years changing the rules to entrench GOP rule. Democrats are now talking about fighting back.

SEE HOW EASILY HE LIES The reflecting pool sounds like a disaster: holes and bubbling pain. Trump first bragged that he sent in a contractor he personally used before, a guy who “does pools.” Now suddenly it’s: “I did not know the contractor,” and the folks at Interior made the pick.

If you’ve been paying attention to what Chad Bianco and Steve Hilton have been saying about the unhoused in the debates, you would realize that homelessness will skyrocket in the state of California if either one of them become governor.

The same day SCOTUS dismantled the Voting Rights Act, I watched Kamala Harris take the stage at the Douglas Awards. She didn’t offer comfort; she offered real talk 🔥 “This is how they play. They are strategic. They think long-term and they are ruthless…we have to be ruthless too.”
