I think that if California was to leave the Union, we in Canada would welcome yall as a province of Canada. The state is beautiful and our values seem to mesh, people come first of all. Just a thought. Washington state and Oregon too.

They recovered over 180 bullet shells at the CDC. Debris from shattered glass is still being cleaned up. I am completely stunned at how quickly the news cycle has moved on. This was an act of terrorism targeting public health experts, and the response seems to be a collective shrug.

Mohawk Skywalkers: The History Stephen Miller Whitewashed The Kanien'kΓ©hΓ‘:ka Haudenosaunee ironworkers were vital to building Miller's favorite monuments to modern America

Stephen Miller tried to claim only real "Americans" built the Empire State Building, but he left out the true stories of the Indigenous ironworkers who actually did. The Mohawk Skywalkers helped shape America's skylinesβ€”and shatter the lie behind Miller’s whitewashed nostalgia.

Rogin: So even what Trump is talking about in that press conference is totally wrong. He's misinterpreted something that his own envoy misinterpreted. So this is the level of sheer incompetence and confusion and just total bizarre chaos that's surrounding this Alaska meeting.

6 days after Soviet troops invaded Czechoslovakia in 1968, a Prague paper published these β€œ10 Commandments”:

4. Don’t have
5. Don’t know how to
6. Don’t give
7. Can’t do
8. Don’t sell
9. Don’t show
10. Do nothing’

The military takeover of Washington is not a β€œdistraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

β€œIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Donald Trump is so scared of the American people holding him accountable for his catastrophic actions, he wants Republicans to rig the 2026 elections for him.

When Donald Trump needlessly deployed armed soldiers against Americans in Los Angeles, it wasn't just a disgrace β€” it was a massive waste of taxpayer dollars.

My office is filing a Freedom of Information Act request to uncover the true cost of Trump's political theater.

What separates us from these Republican states is that California trusts our voters. We don’t play political games.

That’s why we’re exploring a ballot measure to let voters temporarily adjust our congressional map if other states decide to manipulate theirs.
