I have said for years and years that Newsom is a vile human who should be run out of the party. Here's just more proof. We cannot let this guy get the nomination for anything again ever.

"Hochul is dithering about whether to use her powers. AOC, in contrast, exercised her 1st Amendment rights to inform her constituents about their 4th Amendment rights. In doing so, she showed that the administration is tyrannical. She also showed that it’s weak — if you’re willing to confront it."

We applied for my son's passport 1/30 and it got here today. We paid for the 2-3 week expedited. They are at least still honoring those times. If you are applying, I recommend paying that extra fee. And the tracking system to see where it is in the process is still working.

Call and demand that all these databases be made public, minus any PII. And yes, this includes contracts for everything, including farmers and military and public health. Make them show us the supposed waste. Make them explain why we can't have it if this is just an audit.

Your daily "but what can I do" suggestion: A specific ask for our Congress critters. The DOGE twits are going into a lot of databases, including those for government contracts, grants and agreements. That is information that should be public anyway. 🧵
