Firefighters from Mexico just arrived at LAX. They'll be joining 14,000+ personnel already battling the #PalisadesFire.

California is immensely grateful to our neighbors' support in the fight against the wildfires in Los Angeles.

It’s a small win but I appreciate the Supreme Court holding some iota of respect for the legal system.

In local election news where I live, the guy who refused to vote to change Nebraska’s electoral college rule is now running for mayor of Omaha. Who saw that coming except everyone?

Everyone knows by now that what they taught us in school about Thanksgiving was bullshit, right? A lie, because the truth was so horrific we’d question EVERYTHING about the founding of this country.

Book banning is real now, but whitewashing history was always real.

As an outcome of the cruel world of capitalism, my 66 year old mom is fighting for her life in the hospital but worried because she can’t work and support herself.

From a purely potentially naive level I truly wonder the level to which narcissistic politicians on the right will go along with unpopular measures knowing full well he’s no longer electable.
