A reminder tonight that Venezuela has nothing to do with fentanyl. The vast majority of the fentanyl supply begins as precursor chemicals in China, is manufactured in Mexico, and makes it to the U.S. by land, mostly smuggled by U.S. citizens hiding it within lawful trade and traffic at entry points.

If the president can magically claim that drug runners are “narco-terrorists” to justify killing them, what’s to stop him from declaring democratic lawmakers as “political terrorists” or legally protesting American citizens as “agitator terrorists” to justify their murders?

In October alone, the California National Guard seized over 1.2 million fentanyl pills — nearly $6.5 million in deadly drugs that will never reach our families or neighborhoods.
This work is saving lives, and I'm grateful for their commitment to keeping Californians safe.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

When a sitting president calls for death to lawmakers, it’s not a warning sign, it’s the emergency siren. He is talking like a dictator and telling you exactly how he plans to use his power.
This is how democracies fall and how dictatorships begin.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Yes!!!! This is exactly what Ds need to do. If DNC won’t, maybe local candidates, offices need to hear this. Let’s show our communities what Democrats stand for. Stop the blather and do the work. Smartest thing I’ve heard in months!
If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net
