Donald Trump knows his agenda is unpopular, so he’s trying to rig the next congressional election to save his current razor-thin majority.

California will do all we can to stand up against this assault on election integrity and our democracy.

Trump froze $300 MILLION in research grants to UCLA. This is a blatant act of retaliation against academic freedom and California's values.

We're taking them to court, and we won't stop fighting for our students and researchers. ✊

Trump shrugged off today’s disappointing job numbers by calling them “phony” and accusing the Bureau of Labor Statistics of manipulating data to hurt him politically. His solution? Fire whoever gave him numbers he didn’t like.

Last night, Republicans lined up to vote against releasing the Epstein files.

They'll pick protecting Trump over serving the American people.

This defeat is difficult to accept, but we must not let it silence us.

I will continue to stand with Americans as we stand against Trump’s attacks on us–because our efforts to build a more just nation have never been more important.

We, the people, still hold the power. And we are the TRUE patriots—fighting for freedom, not trading it for power.

This is OUR America—not Trump’s.
They passed their bill on the eve of July 4th, not to honor our country, but for Trump. That’s not patriotic. It’s sick.

True patriots fight for equality and freedom — they don’t sell it for power.

Watch @katiephang.bsky.social break it down. This is our America, not Trump’s. #WePersist

Just because we see something now doesn’t mean it wasn’t always there.

Right now, there’s a lot of debate about the overdiagnosis of mental illness, with no supporting evidence.

Let's stop questioning if mental illness is on the rise, and start focusing on why so many of us are seeking support.
