Our weekly roundup of California news for the pirate-minded voter. #VotePirate open.substack.com/pub/capirate...
AB 1382 would fine CA labs $5,000 per glow-in-the-dark rabbit. A rabbit bred the slow way for the exact same look? Totally legal. That's not an animal welfare law. That's a technology ban wearing one's clothes, against a researcher they've targeted before. capirates.substack.com/p/california...
California just made privacy the default. DROP wipes you from hundreds of data brokers in one request. AB 566 makes browsers ship a real opt-out signal. open.substack.com/pub/capirate...
We've published a response to the SF Standard opinion piece about Scott Wiener, and we've submitted it to the SF Standard to see if they will publish it. In the meantime, you can read it here. Calling It Antisemitism Is the Bad-Faith Move Here open.substack.com/pub/capirate...
They tried to rip 900 climate sensors off the ocean floor and call it savings. Both parties stopped them. The machine in DC is not omnipotent. New piece on what that proves — and why the California Pirate Party will be at Ephemerisle Jul 20–26. capirates.substack.com/p/they-tried...

The message from Washington is clear: frontier AI is infrastructure, and infrastructure answers to the state. The only rational response is to take your inference off their infrastructure. open.substack.com/pub/capirate...

Your government just called you a terrorist. Then they came for your guns. The White House named pro-trans advocacy a counterterrorism priority. One week later, the ATF proposed a perjury trap on Form 4473. This is coordinated. Read the full breakdown: capirates.org/2026/05/12/y...

CALIFORNIA! Democrats and Republicans have failed us all. The Pirates have a plan: Tax the ultra rich, UBI, a healthcare public option, fight corporatism, eliminate gerrymandering, clear term limits for Congress and judges, and abolishing ICE. Read more about our platform: capirates.org/platform/
If Gavin Newsom really wanted to affect the Feds ability to fund ICE he would incentivize California businesses to withhold federal income tax payments. capirates.org/2025/08/16/f...
Starting now, the US Pirate Party convention! Join us online. meet.jit.si/PiratesUnite...

Democrats are determined to live under a dictatorship. @davidhogg.bsky.social, if you are sick of a party determined to help install fascism then you should join us in July in San Francisco at the Pirate Parley pirateparley.org #VotePirate
A DNC panel voted on Monday to void the result of a vote electing David Hogg as vice chair of the party after the young Democrat criticized the party for being “asleep at the wheel” as the Trump administration moves the U.S. swiftly toward fascism.
It's too late for Republicans to break with Trump over his acceptance of a bribe from supporters of Hamas. And Democrats aren't pushing back in any meaningful way. It's time for a different tack on the seas of liberty. #VotePirate www.newsweek.com/trump-qatar-...
