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.

“Trump is trying to tell you, you live in an authoritarian society now, and that he is the state,” Jason Stanley, ex-Yale professor now at the University of Toronto partly because of a far-right shift in the U.S., said of Trump's TV ads. “This is pure, pure state propaganda,” he told the LATimes.

ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying. The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened. This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.
