Today, @governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom held productive meetings to secure funding for LA's recovery.
Trump turned his back on survivors by refusing to even meet with us.
His promise to ‘take care’ of survivors was clearly a lie.

Great to catch up with @repbradsherman.bsky.social about securing federal relief for the #PalisadesFire.
The Trump Administration needs to send our federal relief request to Congress so we can move forward on rebuilding and supporting displaced families.

We spent the last year asking our nationwide organizers what they want to see from Democrats in 2026: Nominate real fighters, secure stronger leadership, and demonstrate that the Democratic majorities of 2027 will not be held back by the 2025 status quo.
We are in a battle against fascism. We need fighters, not folders.
It’s time to turn the page in the Democratic Party.

Libraries and museums get federal funding back after Trump cuts
Earlier this year, the Trump administration gutted the Institute of Museum and Library Services, leading to canceled federal grants. Now, after a court order, those grants are being reinstated.

Some say it is illegal to arrest a sitting president. It is not. The president is subject to the law like everyone. That none have been arrested in the U.S. is only a policy internal to the DOJ based on the need for continuity of government operations--a policy that never imagined a criminal POTUS.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
