When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

After he accomplished so much, given his age and the promise he had made to voters that he would be a one term president, Biden shouldn’t have run again. It was clearly his wife and the people high up in his administration who didn’t want to give up power. #following #news #universal #EconSky

Agree or disagree?

In all the dust up about Graham Platner, nobody mentions the existential reason why the Dems must recapture the Senate. As a lame duck, POTUS will replace Alito and Thomas with 2 forty years old and SCOTUS will destroy America for the next 30 years. That cannot happen. #news #following #EconSky

The entire campaign for Spencer Pratt in California is not difficult. He's an MTV reality TV star who knows the game, and he's backed by this: 👇🏼 MTV network is owned by the Ellison family. You know, CBS, Paramount. If you vote for him, you're voting for fascism.

This article in Bloomberg today about UBI includes a link to my recent article about the importance of universality. I hope it finds a few new readers as a result.

Why has he not testify yet? he will probably use the 5th anyway. We all know he played a major part in the Epstein files.

He told us he would be a one-term president. And those around him refused to acknowledge how he was aging. Kamala Harris had 107 days to run a national campaign for the presidency. Those are facts, too.

Kenny sold out Texas and Texans countless times, vote for Talarico vote for TEXAS

Another reason to make sure the Dems take back the Senate: They will not appoint the potential replacements of Alito and Thomas by 35 year-olds that he will nominate.

One day we will look back on the murder of “60 Minutes” as one of the travesties of Trump’s reign. In the meantime, thank you Scott Pelley for telling the truth. Thank you, former “60 Minutes” producers, correspondents, and staff, for telling the truth. And now, we should boycott CBS.

Thanks Texas! We are rooting for you & James Talarico! 4000 Texans gave Talarico a standing ovation, in a recent rally IN KEN PAXTON’s county! Why? Because Talarico is the real deal, a real Christian and an ethical, moral guy with character that WILL get affordability /solutions for TX

Steyer: This race really comes down to three people. A hard-right MAGA Republican A corporate Democrat, Becerra, who’s taking money from oil companies and tobacco companies. Me—I’m the person who’s promising change in California…

An article I've been meaning to write for years is how often I've seen basic income pilot participants compare UBI to breathing. At this point, I've seen it maybe 100 times. I've lost track. It's not just money. It's room to breathe again. It's the weight off your chest. It's the boot off your neck.

Steyer: Becerra is saying, “We’re not going to change anything.” And I’m saying that’s ridiculous. The truth is, we have to make California affordable for Californians, and we have to get back to the idea of a joyous state where we not only imagine the future, we create it—and we do it together.

CO AG Weiser: I don’t understand Governor Polis’ action to commute the sentence of Tina Peters. She broke the law. She broke her oath of office. She undermined election equipment at a cost of millions of dollars. I prosecuted her along with the Republican district attorney…

👇🏽

Look who supports Becerra: State Realtors association, the CA Chamber of Commerce, Pacific Gas & Electric, Chevron, McDonald’s, dialysis giant DaVita and one of the state’s largest oil drillers, CA Resources Corp. Guess how he will govern. Steyer is not beholden to anyone. #following #news #EconSky

If, like me you vote in person, tomorrow vote for Steyer because here is who owns Becerra: State Realtors association, the California Chamber of Commerce, Pacific Gas & Electric, Chevron, McDonald’s, dialysis giant DaVita and one of the state’s largest oil drillers, California Resources Corp.

No, but money buys you politicians and the people who support you include state Realtors association, the California Chamber of Commerce, Pacific Gas & Electric, Chevron, McDonald’s, dialysis giant DaVita and one of the state’s largest oil drillers, California Resources Corp. Nobody owns Steyer.

Steyer: I have a strong anti-ICE platform. I think they are a criminal organization, and we have a very strong plan when it comes to prosecuting them. You don’t have to trust me. The head of ICE went online to say that my program is unfair to ICE agents, and I took that as a huge compliment.

What does that have to do with governing CA? Look at who supports Becerra: PG&E, Chevron, the realtors. Who do you think will influence his decisions that will have an impact on our lives? His donors. Steyer is not beholden to anyone. #news #following #universal

Oh! My goodness! In a world where all standards of behavior have been obliterated by POTUS and his enablers (viz. Ken Paxton) the Dems have to be more catholic than the Pope? That’s how we lose in November. #news #following #EconSmy #AcademicSky #universal

Just look at who supports Becerra: PG&E, Chevron, the realtors, etc. Guess why? He will maintain the status quo and govern CA with his donors in mind, not you. Steyer isn’t beholden to anyone. #following #news #EconSky #AcademicSky #universal

Peaceful and persistent protests will win the day. But the nightly riots propagated by a different kind of protesters with counter-productive motives cannot and should not be tolerated. #news #following #econsky #academicsky #universal

Have you seen who pays for Becerra's ads? PG&E, Chevron, the organization of realtors - the usual suspects. So a vote for Becerra is a vote for the same-old, same-old. Steyer is not beholden to anyone.

Well then, the state troopers should be standing between ICE and the protesters with their backs to them, facing the illegal force of this corrupt administration. #following #news #EconSky #universal

Why don't you tell the American people EXACTLY what's going on in there? Just saying it should be shut down is not enough. I haven't heard one of the people who have had access like Sen. Kim describe any of the conditions he saw. Why? #news #following #econsky #academicsky

You don’t see the old guard of the DNC backing him. Where are Bernie Sanders and the congressional leadership? Only President Obama has given Talarico his support. #news #following #econsky #academicsky

Congressman Mark DeSaulnier who represents me in Congress came to speak to my group at Rossmoor for 1-1/2 hours. He went on and on about how the Dems need to listen to people and field great candidates but never mentioned James Talarico. The old guard will do us in. #following #news #econsky

Thank you for sharing this - the handwriting is on the wall.

The Dems need to heed what Mamdani is accomplishing in NYC. Here is a 34-year-old immigrant who is showing America how to govern. And let's see if they get behind Platner and Talarico because they challenge not only the disaster that is the GOP but the dinosaurs that run the DNC.

A lot of people are noticing who is backing Becerra (look at the bottom of his ads: PG&E et.al.), the usual suspects who had a grip on California for years. Guess who runs the state for their benefit when their guy becomes governor. Steyer is his own man. #following #news #Econsky #academicsky

I heard Blanche say during his testimony before Congress that he had met with survivors. Someone is lying and I have a suspicion of who it is in which case, he needs to be prosecuted because lying to Congress is a federal felony. Anybody, anybody? #following #news #academicsky #econsky

Mark DeSaulnier who is 74 years old and has served in Congress since 2015 just spoke to my group. When discussing the status of the Dem party and what it needs to do to win the mid-terms, he never mentioned James Talarico and the TX miracle he's creating. We're doomed. #news #following #econsky

That's because people can't bring themselves to vote for Becerra and they're still not convinced about Steyer. But just look at who pays for Becerra's ads, PG&E et.al. So it's his donors who call the shots but Steyer doesn't have any donors. #following #news #Econsky #academicsky
