We hosted another wonderful Veterans Town Hall and Resource Fair in San Ramon as part of our office’s ongoing effort to serve veterans both in Congress and here in CA-10 (1/2).

Deputy AG Blanche announced the firing of James Hundley shortly after he was unanimously chosen by judges to replace former Trump lawyer Lindsey Halligan. While the law says that the district court may choose U.S. attorneys, the Trump regime has insisted that the power lies only with them.

She is awesome to read

Les Wexner is not a credible witness. Not only did his attorney try to shut it down, but Wexner claimed he didn’t know Epstein well, and DOJ never contacted him. Well, sir, that is a lie. We have the receipts. ⬇️ Say it with me: this is a cover-up. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

To the Moon and back.

Trump claimed that if Republicans pass the SAVE America Act, they will never lose an election “for 50 years.” The legislation is at the forefront of the GOP's election subversion scheme. And if it becomes law, it could disenfranchise millions of voters in the 2026 midterms.

Can someone explain to me what the other "clashes" have been that comprise the "series"? The piece itself notes "Mr. Trump has had an extraordinarily successful run before the Supreme Court." What am I missing?

NEW EPISODE: Donald Trump isn't hiding his corruption anymore—he's broadcasting it. In this episode I explain how Donald Trump has fundamentally changed the rules of American politics by intentionally "saying the quiet part out loud." www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIMq...

Ron Cobb, 1968

Not enough people are talking about this: Donald Trump is suing his OWN administration for $10 BILLION in taxpayer dollars.

No one said that life was fair But does it have to be this evil? Diabolical illogical It'll leave you feeling feeble It ain't five-dimensional chess It's dementia doin' its best A-ring-a-ding-ding Ya got the mad king And he's mean when he's depressed

From climbing on roofs, to falling out of trees, to flying airplanes off of ships and rockets into space, I’m kind of shocked both of us made it this far. Happy Birthday, Scott.

This from the lawyer who successfully argued the tariff case before SCOTUS, casts huge doubt over the applicability of the statute the @POTUS is relying on to slap down a new 15 percent global tariff.

I had missed this in the midst of, well, everything else, but, great work from @marisakabas.bsky.social and @rcfp.org!

In Prague thousands of Czechs gathered in the city center for the "Together for Ukraine" rally to mark the fourth anniversary of russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Facing mounting setbacks to their nationwide gerrymanders, Republicans are dusting off a fringe legal theory to block voter referendums, court-ordered maps and other democratic safeguards that threaten their edge. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/to-...

Wow. What an incredible idea. We should write this system down on paper and call it, say, the Constitution

The average household lost more than $1,000 to Trump's tariffs. Now the Court has spoken: this was unlawful all along. The President owes you an apology - and a refund.

Why are folks not asking more questions about this FBI complaint in the Epstein Files? www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

I'm pretty sure there's not

🚨BREAKING: In a decisive win for voters, the Utah Supreme Court dismissed the GOP legislature’s appeal in the state’s landmark redistricting case — clearing the way for a fairer congressional map to be used in the 2026 elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Dr. Simpson nails the issue. RFK Jr's demand that all vaccines be tested against placebos reflects a complete disregard for medical ethics. Following the horrors of "Untreated Syphilis Study" at Tuskegee, researches NEVER deny care to study participants. It is immoral to do so, or to suggest it.

Far Side

We found the fraud!

Think of how bad things must be for a Supreme Court Justice to feel he has to explain why it's a good idea to have laws enacted by legislators instead of decreed by wannabe dictators

The groove continues because of this.

One thing to understand is that jackasses like me graduated from law school basically believing that, while nothing like <all this> was realistic in our lifetimes, if it did happen, then our Supreme Court with all its flaws would respond roughly like this judge did, maybe 9-0.

Another bombogenesis blizzard with 55mph winds and over a foot of snow? Sheeeeyat... I guess Winter missed us. 🙄 Also, since when does the Weather Channel get to name storms? "Winter Storm Hernando"? It's a Nor'easter, not a baby announcement. Dumb. ❄️💨🌨️ Stay safe, keep cozy, and F ICE!

When someone illegally takes your money, that’s called stealing. Donald Trump stole your money with his illegal tariffs — and you paid higher prices on everything from housing to groceries. It’s time for Trump to pay up and give back your money.

Dems should fill every empty seat at the SOTU with Epstein victims and survivors. They should be put at the forefront of every conversation and event until we see real accountability for what they’ve been through. You don’t get to victimize people just because you have money.
