Is Trump the new Lettuce?

Which will come to a demise first? Mango Mussolini's presidency or a head of lettuce?

Let's see if he beats Liz Truss' speed record.

Okay, at 7:15 p.m., EST, Fox finally has a mention of the Emails, but no mention of Trump at all in the headline. 😂

This must be as hard for them as when they had an on-air meltdown having to admit to their audience Barack Obama won re-election in 2012.

Even Newsmax is at least reporting the story. Fox "News' is silent.

You can imagine the discussions in the Fox Boardroom.
As of 4:30 p.m. Eastern / 1:30 p.m. Pacific

Passing universal health care legislatively in California would make Gavin Newsom a shoo-in for the Presidential nomination.

Or, we could put CalCare on the ballot in 2026.

Here is a map of the blue state trifectas before Tuesday. We can add Virginia now.

All 16 of these states need to have a universal health care plan ready to legislate when their legislatures re-convene.

The gutting of the ACA and Medicaid is horrific. Medicare and Social Security are next.

I don't want to see a single fundraising text or email.

I want to hear what the recently created blue state public health alliance is going to do to maximize the powers in the 10th Amendment to bring universal health care to the people in our states after the ACA collapses in January.

Someone put a single payer universal health care bill on the Senate floor and call it Trumpcare.

He won’t know the difference.

Republicans are absolutely terrified that the District of Columbia become a state as the Douglass Commonwealth, and its citizens, more populous than WY or VT, have equal representation in Congress.

They will do anything to prevent Black people from having the same rights as whites.

This Prop 50 county vote map is astonishing. All the swing counties voted Yes. Only the most solid Republican Counties voted no. Two of these (Stanislaus and Inyo ) are currently on 51% No, and may indeed flip to Yes when the mail-in vote in added. #California #Prop50

As big as that Prop 50 margin is, it is likely to increase even more as the mail in votes are added over the next few weeks.

Proposition 50 Passes in Landslide

We in California are going to be more California than we have ever been California before.

I love you, California! ❤️

Abigail Spanberger's win means Virginia will have a blue trifecta.

Welcome to the blue state alliance, VA. :)

If you in California are angry that Trump is intentionally starving people, raising prices on health care and food to pay for giant tax cuts for billionaires, sending troops uninvited to terrorize brown-skinned people in our cities…

and is now trying to rig the midterms….

then Vote #YESon50 today.

Trump is calling for the end of the Senate filibuster. For once I agree with him.

The Senate was never meant to be a “supermajority” body and both parties hide behind it to not deliver on their promises.

Let Republicans finally have to own what Project 2025 is doing to the American people.

So this blue state public health alliance that's formed....

When it is going to grow into a universal health care alliance...

A food security alliance...

An emergency management alliance...

I'd rather my tax dollars fund that type of alliance than Trump's fascism and golden ballroom.

Instead of seeing this period in history as an echo of Germany in the 1930's, it is also now starting to give off France in the 1780's.

Trump intentionally starving children while building an unnecessary golden ballroom is entering French Revolution territory.

It looks as if centrists have ousted the far-right Prime Minister in The Netherlands in today's election, and Rob Jetten is the frontrunner to become the new prime minister. He would be the first openly gay Dutch Prime Minister.

In this map, we see the OC Streetcar on the lower right, and the right-of-way it could be extended on to reach the coming Metro Gateway Line at the Pioneer station in Artesia. Should #OrangeCounty use that route, or extend it to theme parks, Anaheim station, and reach Pioneer another way? #transit
October 28, 2025 at 7:05 PM
When the @metrolosangeles.bsky.social K-Line gets extended to Torrance, it seems obvious it should close the gap to connect to the A-Line and perhaps even CSULB or Long Beach Airport. How would you connect it? #transit #losangeles #longbeach

Extend the Amtrak Coast Starlight north to Blaine and south to San Diego, speed it up significantly, and increase the frequency.
@amtrak.com

(Yes, this line could potentially extend to Vancouver and Tijuana, but that's up to Canada and Mexico, respectively).
