California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

Right: JD Vance, "The reporting there is going to be a Qatari base on US soil, that's just not true"

If you can't trust the United States Secretary of War, who can you trust 🤷‍♂️

Here is how the media should be reporting this morning's news.

As part of a growing pattern of political retribution, Donald Trump's FBI has raided the home of a prominent administration critic. In this instance it happens to be John Bolton. The pretense is largely irrelevant.

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday.

This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Remarkable.

MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Over 2,000 peaceful protests happened in all 50 states. Millions marched against Trump’s fascist agenda.

#NoKingsDay may be the biggest anti-administration protest in modern U.S. history.
