Laguna Beach is an art colony. We support the arts. Chip Bok is the brilliant award-winning political cartoonist that created this artwork.

Donald Trump just fired a well-respected General who was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. And his Administration announced they’re replacing other officers, too. The purge of people of stature and independence goes on.

General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, wasn't fired by Trump because he "supports woke policies." He was fired because he's a Black man in the nation's top uniformed military post.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

When my class was elected in 2010, we cut congress’ own budget and our personal ones by about 10 percent. This one should cut theirs by about 20, and each office should lay off a couple employees. Same DOGE is requiring. Make every @gop answer

Well said.

This one weird trick could save the American people $8 million a day in perpetuity: cancel all government contracts with Elon Musk

Trump's federal funding freeze has stopped the hiring of thousands of essential, seasonal firefighters. Yes. You read that right. I'm demanding answers from the Trump administration ASAP. They must reverse this freeze.

Donald would flip his wig if he saw it.

Yaassss AOC! 👏

Today is the best day ever for Xi Jinping. Yesterday was the best day ever for Xi Jinping. Tomorrow will be the day ever for Xi Jinping.

Jeffries: The constitution requires the president has the responsibility to take care that the laws are faithfully executed. Spending agreements passed through the appropriations process are law. When those laws are violated, the constitution has been violated.

This appears to be an announcement by Musk and the attorney for the Stop the Steal domestic-extremist movement (Martin, now posing as a lawman rather than a criminal) that anyone who opposes the ongoing fascist coup will be arrested and jailed. We are getting ever closer to The Point of No Return.

Trump’s playbook is all too familiar: issue threats, escalate tensions, spark market uncertainty, then backtrack at the last minute and claim victory.

Sorry... why are we still referring to Cassidy as a doctor? Surely he lost that honorific today? After knowingly aiding and abetting a man whose anti-science quackery killed Samoan kids and will kill more in the years ahead? How is anything Cassidy did today acceptable under the Hippocratic Oath?

Dear DNC, DSCC, and DCCC: I don't want to see another fundraising text or email asking for a dollar of mine until I see an actual plan to meet this moment. Y'all had 11 weeks between the election and inauguration, and there's still no plan. There's no excuse for that. No plan, no donation.

America has been taken hostage by a convicted criminal who is supposed to be sitting behind bars.
