Song of the Day - crank this up. America is the land of immigrants yearning to be free, and no jack-booted thugs are going to take that away from us. Every member of Congress who voted yesterday to make ICE bigger than the FBI has shown their true colors. Now it’s time to show ours.

As an elected official, I took an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution. Unlike our president, I have no doubts about that and I don’t have to look into it - I will never forget raising my right hand and being sworn into office. @maddow.msnbc.com @ocregister.bsky.social @latimesphotos.bsky.social

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

Just say it - ITS ALL ILLEGAL. Impeach him and kick him out of office. We’re done.
The chaotic blitz by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency has triggered legal objections across Washington, with officials in at least a half-dozen federal agencies and departments raising alarms about whether the billionaire’s assault on government is breaking the law.

In Sacramento for a CalCities Community Services Policy Committee meeting. I never knew how many opportunities open up to participate at the county/state levels once you’re on Council. And for most of us, it’s a part-time job that we do out of love for our communities. It’s really quite amazing.

Absolutely. This is not a debate. This is our US Constitution.
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Written right there in the Constitution.

The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.
