California is the fourth-largest economy, the most diverse state in the most diverse democracy, and a leader in technology and innovation BECAUSE of immigrants.

Immigrants are what make our state great and they are what make this country great.

The court just confirmed what we all know: The military belongs on the battlefield, not on our city streets.

End the unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles now, Donald Trump.

Refusing to do so will only confirm your authoritarian tendencies.

The country is watching.

NEWS: Judge rules in favor of California — Trump’s deployment of the National Guard is ILLEGAL.

“He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith.”

If you haven’t watched @governor.ca.gov Newsom’s address yet, it’s a must-see.

The founding fathers did not live and die to see this moment.

It’s time for all of us to stand up.” youtu.be/pXQQNUeb4Sw?...

Gov. Gavin Newsom made the case in a televised address Tuesday evening that President Trump’s decisions to send military forces to immigration protests in Los Angeles have put the U.S. at the precipice of authoritarianism. https://trib.al/EpbF098

NEW: @governor.ca.gov Newsom is delivering a major address tonight following President Trump’s illegal militarization of Los Angeles.

Trump’s chaos campaign in Los Angeles | Governor of California

New from @governor.ca.gov: Trump is deliberately provoking unrest — as our democracy hangs in the balance.

Here’s a recap of where we stand: www.gov.ca.gov/2025/06/10/t...

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.

Don't give them one.

Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

NEW: California is now the FOURTH largest economy in the world.

Last year, the Golden State's GDP topped $4.1T — surpassing Japan ($4.02T) and behind only Germany ($4.65T), China ($18.74T), and the entire U.S. ($29.18T).

Trump makes sweeping move to undercut state climate laws, including California's 'These State laws and policies are fundamentally irreconcilable with my Administration's objective to unleash American energy,' the president wrote. 'They should not stand.'

“California’s efforts to cut harmful pollution won’t be derailed by a glorified press release masquerading as an executive order.” — @governor.ca.gov www.latimes.com/environment/...

Tariffs are nothing more than a tax on hardworking Americans — driving up the cost of groceries, cars and essential goods.

California stands for the businesses and exporters that power our economy. There’s no economic growth in America without our success.

Los Angeles Wildfire Recovery — ✓ Initial Damage Assessments: Completed Ahead of Schedule. Hazardous Materials Phase I Cleanup: 84% of Parcels Assessed, 46% of Cleanups Completed. Phase II Debris Removal: Launched 35 days after fires ignited — fastest start in state history.

We're undergoing the fastest large-scale debris removal in state history, helping Angelenos build back faster and stronger.

I am grateful to the state and federal workers who are clearing debris at record-pace so survivors can begin the rebuilding process quickly and safely.

Recovering from the Los Angeles firestorms isn't just about LA emerging as one of the top cities in the world.

It's about coming back as the most important and essential city, anywhere in the world.

Happening now in Los Angeles: @governor.ca.gov Newsom announcing LA Rises — a new philanthropic initiative to help Los Angeles rebuild and recover from the firestorms.

More than 14,000 are now helping fight these fires and protect Californians. This is unprecedented.

I’m at Hollywood Hills this morning, where our extraordinary firefighters and first responders suppressed the #SunsetFire last night within a 50-acre footprint.

With more favorable overnight winds, firefighting aircraft were able to safely fly and help put out this blaze.

California is working closely with the federal government to fight these fires in Los Angeles.

We're opening 2025 with a bang — we’re moving into the track-laying phase for the California high-speed rail.

And there's more: California is also building towards connecting @cahsra.bsky.social with other projects, building a regional high-speed rail network.

Jennifer and I join the country and the world in mourning the passing of President Jimmy Carter, a tireless champion for human rights and democracy.

Our hearts are with the Carter family, their loved ones and friends, and everyone grieving this great loss.

Merry Christmas, California! 🎄

‘Tis the season to share joy and gratitude with the ones you love. Wishing Californians a safe, peaceful holiday filled with warmth, comfort, and joy.
