(3,3) My question for everyone who is looking into the National Guard shooting is simple. How did the killer get his guns and what is your plan to stop future killers (American citizens or not) from acquiring weapons in a country that currently makes that easy?

We live in a time when you can be blown up because you โ€œmightโ€ be carrying drugsโ€ฆ

But if youโ€™ve been convicted of trafficking drugs you get a full Presidential pardon.

Support your local bookstores this giving season. Not sure they have what you want? Just call!

Itโ€™s easy to buy online, but how sad would you be if your local bookseller went out of business? Very sad, right?

Prop tax abatement/vacations are a good tool for encouraging new housing construction. We need this in CA.,

As the parent of three boys, not to mention a spouse/sibling/in-law/friend to some of the nicest and most helpful boys around, this is just effing nutso. WTF is a โ€œboy-friendlyโ€ space?

Home Depot could implement a policy requiring ICE to present a judicial warrant before operating on its property. Businesses are fully within their rights to decide who is allowed on their premises.

Mountain View schools prepare to cut $9M as revenue stagnates Faced with stagnating revenue and rising costs, the Mountain View Whisman School District is looking to cut costs by at least $9 million annually.

I think most people would be surprised that a school district where the median home sells for $1.9M would have budget struggles... but that's what happens in California with Prop 13.

Every working family in my district deserves a vacation more than the House Republicans who refuse to do their jobs, come back to DC, and work with us to end this shutdown.

Weโ€™re sharing this because everyone claimed Project 2025 wasnโ€™t real, yet here we are. Trump has also been talking more openly about a third term, and Steve Bannon said thereโ€™s a group actively working on it turns out, there might be one.

But Trump publicly said HE DID NOT want the SC to get involved. This is DOING what Trump publicly asked for.

โ€œAs vegetables prices keep going up and up, people will just substitute towards these very ultra-processed foods, which ultimately will have adverse effects on their healthโ€. Thanks, Trump!

US blue-collar job growth has completely stagnated, hitting the lowest level since the onset of the pandemicโ€”manufacturing is currently losing jobs at a rapid pace, and growth in construction/transportation has slowed to a crawl

Dig this guy's style. Chaz Langley, the man behind the camera, runs a great Instagram account if you like street style. Unfortunately had to clip the video bc Bluesky only allows 3mins (developers pls change this!)
