Reckless is the only way to describe Donald Trump's war with Iran.

He’s a wrecking ball president.

Don’t eat anything this strange man jumps out of the gutter and tells you to consume

The right-wing #ksleg freaks overrode the governor to once again humiliate Kansans with horrific national headlines about our great state.

It’s a good thing Kansans always fight back.

These people have spent the last year blithely drowning in a bathtub any kind of credibility that they’d need for natural disasters, emergencies, or unforeseen crises.

The jig is up! Go home.

And if you swap out “a government” with “your own citizens”?

You know, the reality of the last 12 months?

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

For almost a year, Donald Trump's personal police force has rampaged across America.

His administration has driven extremism and cruelty while discarding basic safeguards and accountability.

Now, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen is dead.

The Trump Administration's lack of duty, responsibility, or leadership to address the climate crisis is an abomination and a disgrace.

California remains a stable and reliable partner in low-carbon, green growth.

The 2019 story about the In-N-Out burger found on the street in NYC and the reporter retracing the Double Double’s adventure from California genuinely occupies so much of my brain space.

I think about it at least once a month.

TIME Magazine: "Trump loses Nobel Peace Prize he shamelessly campaigned for."

What a loser.

California Celebrates Italian American Heritage Month

Happy Italian American Heritage Month!

From the fishermen and vineyard pioneers of Northern California, to the Central Valley ranchers, to the SoCal trailblazers in entertainment, food, and more — the Golden State celebrates the contributions of Italian Americans to our story.

The Studio just won the most Emmys by a comedy series in a single year.

Through our California Film & Tax Credit, the Golden State isn't just strengthening the entertainment space — we're dominating it.

that wsj story now feels like a culmination of anti-trans panic that should prompt a reckoning in the mainstream media. was totally bunk, false, peddled. it’s the kind of thing that has led to reconciliation before, and it should now. news editors should be looking at themselves in the mirror

Four bowls of different mac and cheese. Headline: The Best Boxed Macaroni and Cheese

Macaroni and cheese traces back its origins to Ancient Rome. Its journey has culminated in one of the greatest contributions to the kitchen pantry.
We tasted 19 boxes to find the best boxed mac and cheese. nyti.ms/4gcuoCW

Hey, check out this thing I made!

You deserve a break on Sundays that doesn’t break the bank.

22 television projects set to generate an estimated $1.1 billion and employ 6,500 cast and crew across California.

🎞️ NEW: 22 new TV projects are going to be filmed in California via our newly expanded tax credit.

This means an estimated $1.1 billion in additional economic activity and 6,500 cast/crew jobs across the state.

The Golden State remains the beating heart of film and television.

A glimpse into Trump's make-believe world of "giant water valves" in Northern California…

I just signed the Election Rigging Response Act to put Proposition 50 up for a vote on November 4th.

The people of California will have the power to push back against Texas and any other state that obeys Donald Trump's demand to rig the next election.

On Monday, I gave Donald Trump a chance to back off on having his GOP lapdogs rig next year’s elections by further gerrymandering red states.

He instead chose personal power over our country.

This November, California voters will be given the option to fight back.

The Crazy The Country Needs: An Unfiltered Sit-Down with Gavin Newsom No talking points. No PR polish. Just a candid conversation about Trump, democracy, and why Newsom won't give an inch.

I got to talk with my Governor Gavin Newsom today.

We swapped the fancy PR backdrop for real talk about Trump, democracy, and why “crazy California” might save us all.

Getting content in front of people who won’t ordinarily get our stuff and consume it differently when it’s coming from someone they’ve already formed a connection with — it’s the whole ballgame.

Thanks so much to @barrettadair.bsky.social for her support setting this up starting early this year!
