We can’t let MAGA extremists rig our democracy. California’s Prop 50 is the most important off-year election. Vote YES to fight gerrymandering & protect the House in 2026. Register, vote early, take action! #YesOn50 #DefendDemocracy #GaryLucks #YouAreNotAloneBook

Trump is pressuring Fed Gov Lisa Cook and Sen. Adam Schiff with false mortgage fraud claims. It is pure distraction. He was convicted on 34 felonies and civil fraud, yet accuses others of what he was found guilty of. #Hypocrisy #Democracy #youarenotalonebook #standuptotrump

We’re at the Oakland Farmers Market today with @ResistanceActionEastBay. The GOP’s Big Brutal Bill will gut Medicaid and food support unless we act. Make calls, write postcards, and help fight back. #YouAreNotAlonebook #ProtectMedicaid #ActivateAmerica

Trump-backed Republicans in Texas want to redraw maps mid-decade to gain 5 more House seats. No election, just manipulation. Blue states are responding. Eyes open. Voices loud. We are the cavalry. #VotingRights #FairMaps #TXpolitics #WeAreTheCavalry #youarenotalonebook #stoptrump #defenddemocracy

The reconciliation bill passed by a slim margin, but the 2026 budget still needs 60 Senate votes. They don’t have them. If Democrats hold firm, we can block ICE funding increases and ACA cuts. A continuing resolution would keep the 2025 budget in place. Hope is still alive. #ProtectOurCare #Hope

I wrote You Are Not Alone to help people understand what we’re up against and how we can push back against rising authoritarianism. I talked with @briancopeland.bsky.social about the stakes and the path forward. Watch here: youtu.be/08H8YgQM_d0 #SaveDemocracy #youarenotalonebook #briancopeland

Medicaid and food stamps are lifelines, but endless reporting traps people in cycles of fear and failure. Miss one update, lose everything. These systems punish the poor for being poor. We need safety nets, not snares. #Medicaid #SNAP #PovertyTrap #SystemicFailure #youarenotalonebook

We lost the vote in the House today for the unspeakable bill. Tomorrow is July 4th, a day that marks freedom from authoritarian rule, how ironic. This fight isn’t over. Real patriotism means showing up for justice and for each other. Stay strong! #DefendDemocracy #OBBB #YouAreNotAlone

The Senate just passed a brutal bill that slashes Medicaid and gives tax breaks to the rich. It’s headed to the House. We need vulnerable Republicans to stand up to Trump and stop it. Share this. Call your reps. #YouAreNotAlone #StopTheCuts #ProtectMedicaid

P3: Moreover, 4 of those justices were confirmed by a US Senate representing a minority of the US population.

P2: 5 of those justices were nominated by a president who lost the popular vote while justices Barrett and Gorsuch are illegitimate justices whose positions on the bench resulted from unfair, political maneuvers, hypocritically engineered by Mitch McConnell.

Illegitimate, Extreme Court: Today’s Supreme Court, ruling, limiting nationwide injunctions against a lawless president undermines fidelity to our constitution and separation of powers. 5 of those justices were nominated by a president who lost the popular vote.

No Kings Day - Protests Alone Are Not Enough

Here’s a message from me and our stellar volunteer Bill Lim, who curated this beach art call to action:

I was thrilled to be part of an early morning, political messaging project led by Earthscape artist, Andres Amador, and produced by Bill Lim. We were up early on San Francisco’s Ocean Beach before the tides came in.
