California is the fifth largest economy in the world. The most populous state. The beating heart of the American economy. And California is not backing down.

This wasn’t just a security breach, documents obtained by NPR from a hotel guest who found them on a printer revealed something even more disturbing: a planned luncheon in honor of Vladimir Putin. The menu literally read, “In honor of his excellency Vladimir Putin.”

Yep, he has stolen 10 years of our lives and it infuriates me and it breaks my heart. 🤬💔

TACO was a joke about tariffs. Who knew it applied to Putin too? (Right. Everyone.)

King Charles refuse to host Felon Dump at Buckingham Palace for one simple reason - He's a bumbling Idiot who does not know how to follow protocol. 👍☺️ www.geo.tv/latest/61925...

OMG too funny 🤣🤣🤣 The truth hurts, Donny.

GOOD TWEET. GOOD MOOD. FIGHT.

What if this is not just about white washing history. What if this, together with all the other neo-Christian propaganda, is about grooming us. Slavery isn’t so bad if you have food in your belly and a chance to buy your way out.

Adams: There are a lot of people involved in the administration who criticize pharma, but have no problem promoting ivermectin and supplements. So it’s a little disingenuous to say those people are grifters but then say you should trust us, even though we profited off these unvalidated remedies

🔥 “If I’m willing to drive three hours to come here and talk, I’m gonna ask you to get off your phone and listen to what I have to say.”

Gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social’s social media team isn’t just throwing haymakers they’re out here landing combos 👀

47 is demented. Impeachment is necessary - he is a deeply flawed individual and dangerous. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #Pinks

THANK YOU NICOLE WALLACE ALWAYS APPRECIATE YOUR INSIGHT.🙏🏻 NO DOUBT YOU ARE ONE OF THE BEST.👏🏻👏🏻

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Wake the fuck up to what's going on in this country... We're going to put everything on the damn line... People haven't given up yet. We're going to do this. We can win this November. We can win next November, and then we can get this country back on track."

BRENNAN: Well that February meeting in front of cameras where Zelenskyy was dressed down-- RUBIO: Do you know how many meetings we've had since then? BRENNAN: I was just up in Alaska watching the one with Vladimir Putin where a red carpet rolled out. It was very different

In 1943, Noor Inayat Khan refused orders to leave occupied Paris, becoming the last radio link to London. Betrayed, tortured, and executed at Dachau, her final word was “Liberté.” Her defiance still asks us: when will we choose to stay? Read more: www.facebook.com/share/p/1B31...

Texas is redrawing maps 3 yrs early to cement GOP control. Trump told Abbott to “deliver the seats.” Newsom’s plan is a firewall, not a stunt—and agents at his event sent a chilling message: maps & muscle are the new authoritarian tools. Read more: www.facebook.com/share/p/15zo...

America is being cornered open.substack.com/pub/stevesch...

Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park. It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone. Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.

Why doesn’t Trump hire Americans?

Ocean Beach per SFGate.com drone footage

🏆 to whoever came up with and coordinated the No Kings protest at Ocean Beach, San Francisco. Don’t miss it…absolute fire.

MINNESOTA: “Shelter in place order in a 3 mile radius… white male, black body armor…” The 2 Democratic lawmakers’ spouses were also shot.

#ProudBlue Everyone protesting today, THANK YOU! Please be safe & peaceful. Let’s show the world that we do NOT have Kings here in America.

The first civilian detained by U.S. Marines in Los Angeles was an ARMY VETERAN on his way to a VA APPOINTMENT

In a decisive legal setback for Donald Trump, the full bench of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has DENIED the president’s appeal challenging the civil verdict in favor of writer E. Jean Carroll.

2 Minnesota state lawmakers were shot last night by a person impersonating a police officer. Zero tolerance for Political violence & domestic terrorism. It’s ok to disagree with someone politically, but gun violence is not the answer.

There is no bottom: 80 year-old veteran arrested, arms handcuffed behind his back, even though he is physically disabled for protesting Trump’s military parade. Pure evil!

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

It is easy to forget that when Paul Weiss and the other law firms that capitulated to Trump cut their deals they thought they would be viewed as savvy dealmakers. Now they look like craven fools and gutless cowards.

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

The bigger the lie, the louder she gets...

Republicans can only lose 3 Senate votes on Trump's Big Ugly Bill — and these senators are the most vulnerable in 2026: -Collins (ME) -Tillis (NC) -Sullivan (AK) -Husted (OH) -Moody (FL) -Cornyn (TX) -Ernst (IA) If they represent you, tell them to vote NO.  (202) 224-3121

BREAKING: The far right extremist group, Patriot Front, is marching in Kansas City, Missouri. Remember when MAGA claimed they were Feds and the FBI. Do they now claim that these people are being led by Kash Patel?
