Governor Newsom, I’m asking you to fast track this bill. Our democracy is hanging by a thread, and accountability cannot wait.

On Friday, we launched the signature campaign for Connect Bay Area, a five-county transit funding measure headed for the November 2026 ballot. I wrote the legislation, and @connectbayareatransit is collecting signatures right now to qualify this measure for the ballot.

It’s time to end federal impunity.

Right now, it’s all but impossible to sue federal agents when they violate your rights β€” unlike local police, who can be sued.

Today, the Senate votes on my bill to allow people to sue federal agents, not just local police.

We’ve had enough.

TikTok is now state-controlled media.

This morning I posted a TikTok about my legislation allowing people to sue ICE agents. It's sitting at zero views, and I'm not the only person this is happening to.

CEOs to Minnesota: β€œDon’t worry about the Gestapo literally executing people on the streets. Stop freaking out that they’re shooting mothers in the face, gunning down ICU nurses & kidnapping preschool kids. Just calm the hell down, take a deep breath & β€˜work together.’”

Translation: β€œWe send our condolences to the Pretti family for our untrained thugs executing your son. It was super β€˜unfortunate.’ But it’s not the thugs’ fault. It’s the fault of Minnesota for not tearing apart immigrant families & becoming an arm of ICE.”

Miller responded by calling Pretti a β€œterrorist.”

Bondi responded that they’ll withdraw from Minneapolis if MN hands over its voter rolls.

Hegseth said ICE are β€œpatriots.”

Noem lied that Pretti threatened agents with a gun.

This regime is rotten to the core. It needs to be removed root & branch.

Trump’s untrained Gestapo thugs murdered an ICU nurse in cold blood β€” a US citizen who worked at the VA & had no criminal record. He had a permit to carry & didn’t draw the gun. They simply murdered him.

They must be prosecuted. They must be accountable. The impunity must end.

Trump’s thugs shot & killed again in Minneapolis. They’re creating chaos & there’s no accountability β€” they don’t investigate & it’s almost impossible to sue.

It’s why I’m advancing the No Kings Act β€” vote next week β€” to let people sue federal agents for violating their rights.

End the impunity.

When ICE agents can rip children from their families without accountability, that’s not law enforcement, that’s abuse of power. The No Kings Act is about one basic principle: no one gets to kidnap kids, violate constitutional rights, and walk away untouched. In America, the law applies to everyone.

No one in America should be above the law. That’s exactly why we need the No Kings Act: to give everyday Californians a real path to hold ICE and other federal officers accountable when they violate our constitutional rights. Accountability isn’t optional, it’s the foundation of justice.

Opinion | Antisemitism is permeating everyday life Jewish people know what it means when threats are tolerated until they become irreversible.

Antisemitism β€” including extreme anti-Jewish violence β€” is real & growing. It exists across the political spectrum, from far right to far left. It’s called the β€œoldest hatred” for a reason.

It’s quickly becoming normalized. People become numb to it & tune it out. We must never let that happen.

. . . for constitutional violations the same as local & state officers can now be sued. It’ll hold this thug administration & its masked secret police accountable.

No more impunity. It’s time for accountability.

As ICE’s violent state of siege in Minneapolis continues let’s remember it’s nearly impossible to sue federal agents or the federal gov’t for damages for excessive force or illegal arrest.

I’m working to end that impunity loophole with our No Kings Act, SB 747. It allows federal agents to be sued …

They’re now telling their barely trained ICE recruits they can bust into someone’s home without a judicial warrant. Despite, you know, that Constitution thing.

This is exactly why I’m authoring legislation to let people sue their asses for doing unconstitutional shi*t like this.

Trump's federal cuts are threatening lifesaving scientific breakthroughs. That’s why I’m leading a plan to put a $23 billion science research bond on the ballot. The best part? My bill requires that the drugs developed with this public research bond must be sold at a discount.

I’ve been around & worked with local & state law enforcement agencies for a long time. I’ve never β€” not once β€” seen one refuse to investigate an officer-involved shooting, particularly a fatal shooting. It’s standard procedure & critical for public trust.

Not for this clown car mess of a regime.

Today, San Franciscans came together to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and to recommit ourselves to the work he started.

It was an honor to march alongside community leaders, labor, and neighbors who are carrying that vision forward today.

California bills would cut red tape for balcony solar and heat pumps State Sen. Scott Wiener wants to tackle energy affordability by making it easier than ever for households to adopt increasingly popular clean-energy tech.

Energy costs are through the roof. People need opportunities to lower their bills & take control of their energy future. Heat pumps & plug-in solar installations are key strategies. We need way more of both & I introduced two bills to help get us there.

β€’ Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.
