Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance.
Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for peopleβs wellbeing at every turn.
We have been sent here to fight for people.

STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that?

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

It seems clearβI think to everyone, nowβthat a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

Murray: I talked to a family thatβs paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. Itβs going to jump to over $1,800 per month.
Many people will turn away and not pay for itβobviously, theyβll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

Who will get elected to represent you and your community in government?
A YES vote means California will temporarily use new Congressional maps drawn by Democratic state officials to elect Congressional representatives in 2026, 2028 and 2030.
