Soybean Farmer: So now I've got a tariff war that's killing my market. I don't have any money from grain we're sending to other countries for USAID. I mean, I've got a compound problem. I don't know how you plan for next year because we don't know where we're at.

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

It's happening right in front of you.

Trump and the GOP are creating their own manufactured crises, lighting the Reichstag fires, blaming "them" for the violence (their critics), citing "left-wing" terrorism, all as a setup for martial law and the Insurrection Act.

It's happening in plain sight.

Two years after Hamas' attack on Israel, California mourns the lives lost on Oct. 7th and in the days since.

Peace and healing will come only with the safe return of all hostages — and with real action from leaders to deliver the justice that everyone in the region deserves.

Best Big City: Chicago Wins Award 9th Year in a Row Learn why Chicago was voted the Best Big City for the 9th consecutive year by exploring our vibrant culture, welcoming inclusion, and so much more.

BEST BIG CITY IN THE US 9 YEARS IN A ROW.

While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.

History won’t praise Democrats for playing by the rules if it’s the reason we lose our country.

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

She is not doing well

Donald Trump: “We’re going after the worst of the worst.”

ICE arrests two men at a Chicago area bakery. Workers, not criminals. And this is why they need the National Guard?

Brutal.

Former North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper raised $14.5 million during the first 65 days of his new Senate campaign — a record-breaking total for a Senate challenger in their first fundraising quarter in one of the most competitive races of 2026.

I forget-- who controls the White House, Senate, and House?

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations.

The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel).

"The party of small government,” folks.

This is so not normal. And so not right. And so unconstitutional. And if a Democratic president had the Governor of Illinois send IL national guard troops to Texas, @GregAbbott_TX would be having a meltdown.

Trump Is Effortlessly Destroying Washington’s International Influence With Congress compliant, the Supreme Court complicit, and media corporations compromised, Trump has forged a clear path to international irrelevance.

Largely ignored by a media overwhelmed by daily outrages from the Oval Office, Trump’s destructive foreign policy strategy has some truly serious implications for America’s role in the world.

Greta Thunberg is not in the Epstein files, but Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump are.

Border Patrol called anti-ICE protester ‘B****’ before shooting her: lawyer Lawyer says video shows agents provoked clash before firing, fueling scrutiny of federal use of deadly force.

#Pinks #ProudBlue
ICE agent called woman “bitch” before he shot her seven times. She was not brandishing a weapon as they claimed. Why won’t they release his name? Don’t let them provoke you. Record everything you can safely.

The Supreme Court appears ready to side with Trump in bringing back “gay conversion therapy.”

This practice involves physically abusing teenagers to try to turn them heterosexual, including with electric shocks and chemically-induced nausea.

Opinion | Six surgeons general: RFK Jr. is a threat to the health of Americans It was our duty in office to warn of dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

Padilla: Do you believe government officials are obligated to follow court orders whether they agree with them or not? 

Bondi: I wish you loved your state of California as much as you hate President Trump.

Padilla: I asked a simple yes or no question

Coons: “The department cut hundreds of grants totaling hundreds of millions of dollars…This was literally defunding the police…Can you assure us this process is going to be fixed going forward, so better decisions are made at the start and not just after appeals?”

Yes, Of Course, Trump Will Invoke the Insurrection Act

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.
