Newsom: He is a failed president. Who else sends ICE at the same time while having a conversation like this? Someone who is weak, broken. His weakness is masquerading as a strength. The most unpopular president in modern history.

Trump’s use of the military and federal law enforcement to try to intimidate his political opponents is yet another dangerous step towards authoritarianism.

This is an attempt to advance a playbook from the despots he admires in Russia and North Korea.

On November 4th in California, you will have the power to stand up to Donald Trump. You will have the power to stand up for people.

We're going to give the people of this state the power to stand up for democracy.

Remove AB306 text from the CA Budget Bill!

These rules would prevent cities and even the state from updating building codes for 6 years. They’re well intentioned, but the wrong approach. A great article by Florida building official Jeff Remas is the best explainer I’ve seen:

The new Senate bill doesn’t just gut renewables. It includes massive giveaways to the fossil fuel industry.

It exempts oil and gas drillers from paying corporate taxes. It gives coal companies a tax credit for burning more coal.

It uses your tax dollars to subsidize climate destruction.
The Senate is about to destroy clean energy to give tax cuts to billionaires
The bill could pass within the next 24 hours.

The entire R&D budget of the department of energy for renewable energy and energy efficiency is, or was, $3.5B. For the whole country! We should triple that number instead. bsky.app/profile/cost...
SpaceX gets a $5.9B contract.

All the renewable energy & energy efficiency R&D done by the Department of Energy is only $3.5B. Wind, solar, geothermal, electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, biofuels, weatherization, buildings, efficiency, state programs, manufacturing, everything. Total: $3.5B 🔌💡
