Lesser Evil is owned by Charles Coristine, the father of 19-year-old Edward Coristine, who is allegedly working as an engineer with DOGE, led by Elon Musk to reduce government spending, The Boston Globe reported. This company’s yelp reviews have been closed.

California farmers feed our nation and the world. But they’re facing water issues, tariffs, and workforce challenges – all while costs keep rising. As CA's first Senator on the Agriculture Committee in 30+ years, I'm fighting for them every day.

Am I having a stroke or did Trump just talk about the US “owning” Gaza? And maybe sending US troops?

I'm quite sure it's mainly Californian Republicans who are farming in the region Trump just stole their water from. I wonder how stupid they feel now after his uninformed and dangerous actions? youtu.be/8Y24Y7vJO64?...

We're living George Orwell's 1984: IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.

My GOP colleagues now say being born in the United States is not enough to establish citizenship but newborn infants must also show their “allegiance” to the country! MAGA diapers perhaps?

@spelllcheck.bsky.social are we all together on this, that we wanna survive to see next year?

"Sovereign wealth fund" is that pig latin for American tax dollars investing in "World Liberty Financial"? Watchout citizens he is getting ready to drink our milkshake.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

We are now experiencing a government coupe! youtu.be/UBmFx5rUglA?...

ICYMI: This weekend, I joined colleagues and community leaders to brief the press on Trump’s “Executive Disorders”—his illegal withholding of congressionally appropriated funds—and their impacts on public safety.

“This all fits in with the Project 2025 goal of shrinking the nonpartisan federal workforce and replacing those employees with political supporters, the types of people who will bend the federal government to Trump’s will.” @mollyjongfast.bsky.social is right, and it should scare you. bit.ly/3WLLJdH

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Asking tough questions is how you deal with politicians. Finding solutions is how you deal with voters

And this…

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Serious question: can the president just spend all his time in office suing people and then use the litigation as a "legal" way of accepting bribes via "settlements"?

Maybe lol nothing matters of maybe just maybe headlines like this in every state are politically damaging for Trump and the GOP. www.12news.com/article/mone...

Few material things can provide perspective. This does for me. Photo of Otto Frank, returning to his family’s hiding place. In 1944, an informant betrayed them and the family was sent to Auschwitz. His wife (Edith) was murdered, his daughters (Margot & Anne) died of Typhus.
