I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.

The unqualified Pete Hegseth fires a Black four-star general with a deep record of service. As if Gen. Charles Brown was just some D.E.I. hire. As if Hegseth is not some white hire, lacking in merit.

I just downloaded the 5 Calls app on my phone and used it to make a call to Sen Padilla, Sen Schiff, and Rep Tom McClintock on one of the topics listed. It worked flawlessly and made it so easy. I'll choose a different topic each day and contact the people it has set up. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There will be protests on Monday. Per the ACLU if you are stopped by police, you have the right to remain silent. You do not have to consent to a search. You have the right to record events. If your rights have been violated, capture badge numbers and get contact info from witnesses.

Trump's PR stunt releasing 2.2 billion gallons of central valley water still makes me furious. And his suspension today of the program training inmates to be firefighters just adds insult to injury. He will continue to harm California. 😡

Musk has hacked into government systems exposing the personal information of all who receive Federal monies, the largest security breach in history. I'm expecting to get an email any day from Trump offering free credit monitoring or it'll be a gold Trump protection plan that you'll have to pay for.

This guy should have no role in running our government. We didn’t elect him. He’s not a gov’t employee who is accountable. He hasn’t taken an oath to uphold the constitution or work on behalf of the American people. He’s in it for himself not for us.

For fucks sake. We didn’t lose because of the price of eggs. We lost because Republicans SAID it was the price of eggs. Now they’re dismantling government, stripping rights, starting trade wars and Dems are saying “look at the eggs!” Leaders lead! Stop chasing their bullshit! Focus and fight back!
