Democrats do not have the daily and persistent focus or courage to reject the status quo in order to meet the urgent needs of working Californians.

Oh please. You’re not Che Guevara.

You’re the ruling supermajority, grasping for credibility with vague outrage while the damage plays out in real time.

#CALeg is collapsing because you enabled every failure.

Expensive regulations have caused electricity rates to surge in the last ten years, making the cost-of-living crisis even worse for regular Californians.

Californians deserve better than more of the same failed policies from @governor.ca.gov & @assemblydems.bsky.social.

California’s high taxes and expensive mandates make our gas prices some of the highest in the nation.

@governor.ca.gov should stop gaslighting Californians and admit the truth – his failed policies are screwing Californians.

Newsom hasn’t take a position on the bills, and Gallagher said he would’ve shown or whipped votes if he made it a priority: β€œYou think he might have been here. You think he might have made some calls. But I don't see Gavin Newsom because he doesn't really believe that.”

@assemblydems.bsky.social killed two bills keeping men out of women’s sports and locker rooms.

Instead of standing for common sense, these politicians caved to the far-left radicals who run their party.

California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas has not spoken to the Capitol press corps since January 9.

He refused to answer questions from us after hearing on trans athlete-related bill.

Yes, I strongly encourage you to run against Tom Lackey for California State Assembly.

I wholeheartedly support your candidacy & will assist you in fundraising/knocking doors for your campaign against him in #AD34.

My god, does he hear himself?

The β€œlocalism is determinative guy” criticizing Dems for not making β€œany damn sense.”

The French Laundry guy wants to address elitism.

The β€œLatinx” and boys-in-girls-sports guy has thoughts about β€œtalking past people.”

Just zero self awareness.

It’s been two years since @gavinnewsom.bsky.social signed a bill to tackle his conspiracy theory about β€œgas price gouging.” Since then, things have only gotten worse.Β 

@governor.ca.gov should take off his tin foil hat and get rid of the taxes and mandates that drive up our gas prices.

Twitter is still the public squareβ€”the undisputed heavyweight champ. Messy, loud and transparent. That’s why we’re staying.

Sadly, @AssemblyDems bailed.

If you still want to engage on #CALeg β€” whether with those dodging debate or driving it β€” we’re here too.

California High-Speed Fail is demanding another $7 billion, despite spending $14 billion with little to show for it.

Looks like the Assembly Dems & Reps are having a little skeet spat (which... whatever) so that means a bunch of California legislators have joined Bluesky!

I've added them to my starter pack of sitting state lawmakers, which is now up to 39 out of 120 representatives

β€œDemocrats have criticized Republican members of Congress for not holding in-person town halls … Leveling that criticism β€œat the same time that you’re vacating the space where a lot of conversations are happening β€” I think that’s a bit hypocritical,” Gallagher said.”

Two years ago today, @gavinnewsom.bsky.social said he β€œbrought Big Oil to their knees” & ended β€œgas price gouging.”

Since then, the gap between CA prices & the national average has grown $0.16/gal.

Maybe the real cause is Newsom’s taxes & mandates - not his tin foil hat conspiracy theory.
