Starting January 1st, Californians will be able to buy five-packs of insulin pens via CalRx® for a maximum recommended price of $55 per pack. Every Californian should be able to access life-saving medications without breaking the bank.

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you. Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide. So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

🚨🚨🚨WA Governor Bob Ferguson responds to a letter he received from AG Pam Bondi in which she threatened to place him in jail. 🧯He is on fire! 1/2

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants. Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

My boss: so how's our fourth quarter looking? Me, the sales manager at the company that makes inflatable frog suits: well, you're never going to believe this, but

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Looking for one thing you can do right now to help protect the right to vote? It will only take a few minutes, and you can share it with all of your friends. joycevance.substack.com/p/a-thing-yo...

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

🚨”…The only way we win is if we stand up for others before that weapon is pointed at us.” Sound ⬆️ and pay attention! 1/2

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air. He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congress—everyone. Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.

I know this moment feels different. When we turn on cable news or open social media, it can feel like we’re so divided that persuasion is pointless. I represent people in red areas & blue areas, and let me tell you: while real disagreements exist, we’re not as divided as the algorithms make it seem.

Have you heard the good news? California finished a project that will create tons of clean renewable energy & help prevent evaporation and algae formations while keeping solar panels cooler & more efficient. This article made my day! www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol...

New Mexico's economy is a fraction of the size of New York City's. If they can enact universal childcare — and relieve working families of a crushing cost burden — surely we can too. It's just a question of political will.

🎉🎉🎉Shout out to Kaiser Permanente - they recently updated their website to say that they WILL be covering COVID-19 vaccines all of their members 6 months old and up!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you KP - let's hope their announcement kicks off more like it kp.org/covidvaccine

Great news. Let's do this everywhere. www.krqe.com/news/politic...

I don't want to start a thing so I'll just say that there will never be a good argument for privatizing USPS. That would be like privatizing libraries. The aim of services isn't to be run for profit, they are for serving the greater good, which USPS has been extremely successful at.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

California, Oregon and Washington announced yesterday they’ve created their own health alliance, saying the CDC has become “a political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science.” New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have now done the same.

Today, WA joins CA and OR in forming the West Coast Health Alliance to ensure our residents continue receiving science-based #PublicHealth recommendations. This partnership ensures our states will continue working with trusted medical orgs to protect our communities' health and safety.

New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

Just in case you forgot…

Little kids are having to use their bodies to shield friends from gunfire while armed soldiers are busy picking up trash.

🚨BREAKING: In a landmark victory for voters, a Utah judge struck down the state Legislature’s gerrymandered congressional map and reinstated the citizen-led redistricting reforms voters approved in 2018. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

I urge all Californians to vote to redistrict our maps in response.

Trump and JD Vance are vile predators who thrive on chaos. Trump’s a convicted felon, lifelong fraud, liar, loser, predator. MAGA idiots must be called out strongly. Stand up for communities, LGBTQ, and diversity—because when you don’t, they erase history and come for you.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: “Silence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it is…Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.”

NEW: “I’ve had enough…I’m refusing to back down.” Texas state Rep. Nicole Collier speaks to MSNBC from the Texas State Capitol. She is stuck there after the Texas GOP required police surveillance as condition for release. She is refusing to sign a waiver for the law enforcement escort.

This is full-on authoritarianism. Free Nicole Collier. #txlege

Putin told him to do this. That’s a very important piece of the story. Im not kidding. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This guy is trying to get a Nobel Peace Prize? When he's bringing war to the American people? He sent the United States Marines into the United States of America."

Newsom: “Wake up, America. If he rigs this election, you won’t have a country anymore.”

“To see so many people who frankly give a shit about their country, it really warms my heart. I’m trying really hard not to cry.” “Why this fight is so important is because there’s only one thing left for them to take, and that is our power.” - Texas House Democratic leader Gene Wu

You know what would actually reduce crime and homelessness? Universal healthcare, free education, affordable housing and a basic living wage. When people have their most basic needs met, they have happier and healthier lives. Those hoarding the wealth don’t want to give us those things.

We’re not done! I believe American ideals are still achievable despite the obstacles we’ve put in our own way. I still believe in the potential for us to become the more perfect union generations have dreamed of! I believe we’ve got a lot of work to do.

Everything is shit and fascism is here and we're not going to be saved; we have to fight it together. Go volunteer at a local food bank or library or something, joining existing networks will save you time and energy and show you how those connections look and feel if you need to rebuild them later

For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq. “If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.” National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC. A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.

A stronger case for why D.C. should become a state has never been made. Trump’s seizure of power today is based on false pretext and is meant to distract from Epstein. But it has real consequences. The people of D.C. should not be ruled by a tyrant. This is intimidation without representation.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

BREAKING: It’s official. The Trump regime will deploy the National Guard in D.C. Let’s be clear about what this is. This is NOT about homelessness or crime. This is an authoritarian regime using the US military to seize a Democratic city, terrorize its residents, and lock up Black & Brown people.
