my fellow Californians of good moral character…

trans people need you, *i* need you, to tell Newsom exactly what you think of him saying trans Californians (in a trans! sanctuary! state!) aren’t worth protecting

PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS SLIDE

Gavin Newsom is not coming to save you.

Gavin Newsom is a shithead.

If he lived in a Red State, he would be a far right Republican, because the only thing Gavin Newsom actually stands for and cares about is himself.

10 Democrats voted to censure him. They need to retire immediately.

We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Powerful.

Fuel up your cars tonight. Buy today anything you might need before Saturday morning. Tomorrow, don't buy anything unless it's truly local. Yes, it's a small action. But it's an action with financial consequences. And that's the only transactional relationship they understand.

Still.

Maybe it was always simply about firing people. For those who feel small & want power & control, firing people must bring such joy. He’s firing everyone he’s able to fire, putting his puppets in their places, & telling them to do the same. The trickle down? He gets his way in every scenario.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
