I can honestly say the worst possible time to get the flu as a political candidate is during holiday party season 😢😞🛌

Turning life into a casino is infinite disasters that are already happening. Every time I open social media, I get an ad for Kalshi asking me to waste money betting on nonsense. This is terrible for everyone. Gambling is not an asset class.

Today, I’ll be protesting the ICE recruiting event that Kevin Kiley, Roger Nielo, and Rosario Rodriguez are hosting at Jessup University. The secret police should not be allowed to recruit in California and definitely not at a Christian school.

More people working in professional industries need to understand: You are expendable and labor protections would benefit you. Even if you put in all of the hours, do all of the dirty work, and never complain, statistically speaking, you’re probably not going to make it. It’s a pyramid scheme.

Listening to alternative and punk rock songs from the late 90’s to 2000’s and paying attention to the lyrics … Hits different as an adult

These tech billionaires are all playing in our faces using AI slop to keep us mad at each other while they rob us blind. I’m angry but I still have hope for the future, and that hope is what drives me. Please help any way that you can. Don’t give hope. #ai #america #cali #future #democracy

Can we get some of that cancel culture for the ghouls running defense for pedophiles? Like Megyn Kelly calling 15 year old children “barely legal”

Trump and the Republicans are trying to starve 43 million Americans to end healthcare subsidies for 20 million Americans so they can give handouts to 1,000 billionaires.

They’re cutting #SNAP payments on Saturday. 43 million mostly working Americans won’t be able to afford groceries. I’m raising funds for the Sacramento Food Bank which can provide 3 meals for every $1 given. Please consider pitching in anything you can support.sacramentofoodbank.org/chrisbennett/

Here’s what’s at stake in the shutdown: If Republicans get their way, 50,000 Americans will die unnecessarily every year. 15 million will lose their health care. 20 million will see their premiums double. All so they can give a trillion dollar tax break to the 1%.

And JD Vance already showed he has no problem bombing a California highway to stroke his ego

Newly built data centers specializing in AI slop, plagiarism, and grift should not be allowed to drive up electricity costs for ordinary people. The reason Memphis is getting attacked by ICE is because Elon Musk is poisoning the air with his and people are protesting. #AI #Technology #Politics

I wonder which worthless political consultant came up with the whole “genocide is a legal topic that I can’t comment on” BS that every corporate Democrat AIPAC shill is parroting

Taking away access to healthcare and jacking up insurance premiums has a guaranteed outcome: PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE. Shutting down the government until Dems make sure the GOP can’t backstab them is the bare minimum to keep Americans alive. Longer term, WE NEED UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE. #shutdown

As a disabled army vet, I get my care through the Mather VA in Sac. They just told me I couldn’t get my Flu or COVID shots. One of the nurses said this was due to RFK Jr.’s new CDC guidance. Are you having issues getting your vaccines at the VA? #veterans #covid #healthcare #flu #sacramento

If I had a dime for every time, someone got upset that I’m skipping the line. There’s a reason why Democrats keep dying in office of old age. Our politics is literally those hermit crabs swapping shells. Stifling voices against genocide is why the Dems have zero young people showing up anymore.

A massive problem in business and politics is succession planning. People get power, they start to believe they are special, and they put no effort into helping the next generation. The end result is dying of old age and a mad scramble from leaderless organizations that perpetuate the cycle.

Demonizing empathy and giving everyone a gun is a recipe for mass gun violence.

Republican politicians are a bunch of sniveling weirdos who can’t win a popularity contest to save their lives. That’s why they use bureaucratic fuckery and minority scapegoating to tip the scales.

In case you didn’t know, Dr. do nothing AIPAC Ami Bera voted for Charlie Kirk day. Help me show him the door.

Men with fragile egos have to flex their power to make up for their impotence. Pete Hegseth is what happens when you put personal loyalty over competence

Almost every elected Democrat is pro-Israel and pro-genocide while less than 8% of the democratic base feels the same way. When our elected politicians refuse to listen to our demands, we need to replace them.

Fascist strongmen with fragile egos can’t take a joke. This country is built on freedom of speech. Boycott the cowards who are complying in advance. youtu.be/6um28AcAd9s

The things Israel does to Palestinians are a test run for what the President and ruling class will do to us. The working class (anyone who doesn’t own for a living) has far more in common with the besieged people of Gaza than we ever will with billionaire ghouls like Elon Musk. #gaza #israel

1/ Regardless of the California redistricting outcome in November, the most important thing is that we don’t let corporate Dems convince us yet again that they’re the only answer to the problems THEY created. They gave up on the working class, leaned into racism, and opened the door to fascism.

🎉ENDORSEMENT ALERT🎉 We are excited to support @chrisjbennett.bsky.social in #CA06 against AIPAC's Rep. Ami Bera! Chris says: "Ami doesn’t mind children being blown up or starved to death, despite being a pediatrician, because he loves AIPAC money. Let’s show him we wont let him get away with it."

Supremacy is the final form of mediocrity

ICE is just the HR recruiting department for slave labor camps. We need to end slavery in this country once and for all. No one should profit from forced labor, regardless of whether a person has committed a crime. #ICE #gestapo #politics #Democrats #immigration #Constitution #slavery #labor #crime

Netanyahu’s atrocities are not limited to Gaza. He has also unleashed terrorist settlers in the West Bank who attack civilians and recently beat a young American to death. Even Trump’s ambassador, Mike Huckabee, called this a “terrorist act.” NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

The only good #billionaire is a former billionaire. These people are not our friends. They would hunt us for sport if they could get away with it and that’s what they’re doing right now with #ICE. Help me make government work for all of us, not just wealthy ghouls. #politics #sacramento #california

#ICE is attacking day laborers here in #sacramento at the Home Depot on Florin road and have arrested an observer. Share with your networks and stay safe. #gestapo

For those just waking up: last night Republicans voted against an amendment put forward by Democrats that would have forced the public release of all the Epstein files

🚨 NEW via WIRED: Newly uncovered metadata reveals nearly 3 minutes were cut from the so-called “full raw” Epstein prison video released by the DOJ and FBI. When WIRED asked for answers, the DOJ said “refer you to the FBI.” The FBI declined to comment. Link: www.wired.com/story/the-fb...

#Republicans playing defense for pedophiles cus they know #Trump is one of them but they’re giving him 100% loyalty even as he crashes them into the ground. 80 year olds don’t live that long but the truth will still be there tomorrow. We won’t forget. www.newsweek.com/jeffrey-epst... #EpsteinFiles

This #EpsteinFiles controversy is as good a reason as any to come back over to the light side. I can’t speak for establishment #Democrats but I can tell you for certain that I’ll never hurt kids or let someone else hurt kids unlike these folks who killed the Epstein files under Dems and the GOP. 1/

#superman2025 is my new favorite movie and James Gunn is a national treasure. It’s time we stop letting the Lex Luthors of the world destroy our planet and murder people for profit. The only good billionaire is a former billionaire.

There’s two kinds of doctors: the ones who want to heal people and the ones who want to make money. The latter are the reason why we don’t have universal healthcare thanks to the AMA. You can tell, which kind Ami Bera is too since I’m an Army veteran who is more anti-war and anti-violence than him.

When my father was born in 1963 we created the first vaccine for measles and nearly eradicated the disease. Now, thanks to anti-vax grifters with brain worms like RFK Jr. running HHS, people are getting hurt for no reason. Please get your kids and yourselves vaccinated. Protect your loved ones.

Most of Trump’s admin makes sense in terms of blatant corruption to line their own pockets. RFK Jr. seems different. I know he’s making money off his antivax lies … but it seems like he also wants to help measles kill more children. Whatever the case, please get vaccinated. Don’t suffer pointlessly.

Rabid billionaires are looting our government and using anti-education and anti-science actions to do it. The result is Americans dying pointlessly. With HHS antivaxxers “handling” the measles outbreaks to numerous climate disasters to airplane crashes. Loyalty to Trump will not save us from death.

The Texas flood deaths are the direct result of Heritage Foundation attacks on education and their goal to privatize the government via Project 2025. Trump’s gutting of NOAA and FEMA are already giving us dead Americans. How many more have to die before Congress does their job and impeaches him?

The Nazis started with mass deportations. It was only once they realized it was too expensive that they then moved on to extermination camps. The biggest antifa organization in American history was the U.S. Military. As an Army veteran, I can proudly say: F*ck fascists.

It’s time we get money out of politics. No compromise can take place when one or both sides have sold their souls to the devil. Billionaires should not exist and the fact that they do threatens our democracy and way of life. Greed is bad. Anyone who tells you otherwise is just a greedy weirdo.

In economics, “Average propensity to consume” shows us that the more money you have, the less you spend and the less economic activity you produce. Every extra dollar in a billionaire’s pocket does almost nothing for the economy, especially when compared to money in the pockets of the working class.

1) They’re doing a victory dance over their destructive reverse Robin Hood bill but all is not yet lost. We can still fight back and we can still make our voices heard. Many hurt people are blaming those duped into voting for this and I understand. But these people will soon realize what that means.
