This is an important watch. This was after Newsom's announcement about redistricting. They were in Little Tokyo, & border patrol was there, where Japanese folks were picked up & interned in the 1940's. That stunt from the news conference was a scare tactic by the regime.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.
For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.
The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

It’s not that we didn’t want the shutdown to end, it’s the fact that millions of people suffered throughout this shutdown and it was for nothing. That’s the most upsetting part.

My wife and I pay for life insurance even though we have never died. I pay for fire insurance even though my house has never burned down. That's not because we want to throw money at insurance companies. It's because THAT'S HOW INSURANCE WORKS.

We actually seemed to have some momentum from the election, and they caved. Why? Big donations? Just don't think they should have given in.

The Democrats are the only party that surrenders when they have the advantage.
Imagine Ulysses Grant after Vicksburg: “Well, they’re not giving in, guys. Let's just give them what they want and go home."
Snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
That's the real Senate vote headline.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
