Today, local authorities confirmed the victims of the Stockton shooting were just 8, 9, 14, and 21 years old — and that the attack was likely targeted. Our hearts break for their families and the entire Stockton community.

This World AIDS Day, we mourn the hundreds of thousands of Americans lost to HIV/AIDS and stand with those living with the diagnosis today.
While the Trump Administration refuses to mark this day, California will never abandon our neighbors, friends, and loved ones affected.

The so-called U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba is serving in that position unlawfully.
She is an unqualified political hack and a complete disgrace.

Today is World AIDS day. Trump has refused to participate and ordered federal employees to not post anything commemorating the fight against the deadly disease.
This is despicable. The Trump administration is trying to erase #LGBT people.

The U.S. will not commemorate World AIDS Day this year. This action, along with recent federal funding cuts, could contribute to a resurgence of HIV/AIDS.

The Peoples WH no more! We must take it back from corporation lobbyists too big to fail!
A majority of corporations donating to Donald Trump's golden ballroom are represented by 3 lobbying firms — firms lobbying the government on a range of issues.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."
