We’re about two weeks out from Election Day. Here’s what you need to know: your Attorney General, Secretary of State, and local county clerks are working hard to ensure elections run smoothly across our state — and we’re prepared for any scenario that may arise. #OregonElections

The Melbourne Cricket Ground is absolutely more populated than the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Tx. #trumpsterfire #49erfaithful

I heard an ad this morning that essentially stated I need an AI defender from the AI that the technoratti want us to use. This insanity is brought to us by the fact that over the past 30 years our federal legislative body couldn't bring themselves to regulate tech. #dystopia

Fuck Rupert Murdoch and Lachlan for their work destabalizing America. Let's be clear on who the enemy is - Australian news moguls. #trumpsterfire #fuckfox

Once upon a time in America, the gov't and the private sector worked together because as one titan of industry said: "Never before has there been a more urgent need for creative scientists than today (1963)." Maybe it was all a dream. #trumpsterfire

CA leads the nation in scientific advancements & cutting-edge research. White House Office of Management and Budget new proposed rule puts all this in jeopardy & makes way for politically motivated decisions that serve the President over science.   They must rescind this rule immediately.

schiff.senate.govNEWS: As California Leads Nation in Scientific Advancements, Schiff, Lofgren, 42 Colleagues Urge OMB to Rescind Politicized Rule on Federal GrantsWashington, D.C. — U.S. Senators Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), U.S. Representative Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.-18), and 42 members of the California congressional delegation are demanding the Office of Management...

Today’s episode of “you can’t make this up:” Trump set out to prove voter fraud in the voting machines. And found not a single instance of fraud, so they’re pretending the study never happened

Were Mussolini, Ceaușescu, Stalin, [insert your preferred strongman here] around to see the dimishment of their "legacy"? At least Trump the Insult Comic gets the moment to see how much the taxpayers and citizens do not care for his personalization of DC. #freetheKennedyCenter #trumpsterfire

Kai closes her eyes to pretend the boos are cheers so she can support Dementia Grandad when he makes the claim that he got the MOST effusive greeting. #trumpsterfire

I now declare myself: i. The GOLD standard of employees; ii. The BEST mother, bar none, that my children have ever known; iii. The MOST gifted conversationalist that my friends enjoy; iiii. The PINNACLE of humanity on this Earth. #trumpsterfire

Gorsuch says SCOTUS is working and points to a 40% agreement stat among the justices. That means they don't have unanimity 60% of the time. That's not something "working" in my mind. It seems to me the aim should be closer to 60-70%. #trumpsterfire thehill.com/regulation/c...

thehill.comGorsuch says Supreme Court is ‘working’Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said the Supreme Court system is “working” in a Sunday interview where he reflected on the country’s founding principles.  Gorsuch joined Fox News’s Shannon …

To my friends in Cali (specifically SoCal) Fox News brought us two tours of The Dump administration. So please, say NO to Steve Hilton. #cali4ever #trumpsterfire

Stating that a politician's views align with a political philosophy (fascist, nazi) or using a term to describe a politician's actions (despot, tyrant) is not commensurate with a politician making statements to kill or harm his enemies. One describes and the other is a dogwhistle. #trumpsterfire

The lack of a strong democratic contender in the CA gubernatorial race is directly a reflection of party politics. The pipeline got stuck for decades as federal level folks refused to step down, and then state level folks got termed out. And county and city ppl didn't get a bite at the apple.

So ex staffer Nate Cavanaugh, with less sense and less brains, is in the AI space with his newest startup in LA, "Special." That's special, alright. With his DOGE hack record he totally should be involved in a technology that literally NO ONE can understand, including its creators. #foff

Justin Fox and Nate Cavanaugh are the same ages as my son. And if my son was as stupid on all metrics: history, logic, presentation and speaking skills, and friend selection, he'd be kicked to the curb. Sometimes dropping out doesn't make you Steve Jobs. #parentsdobetter #wedonthirethebest

These GOP clowns started this war, and now are trying to get the US taxpayers to pay a ridiculous amount for a WAR that never needed to happen. Fuck them. NO INCREASED $$ FOR TRUMP'S ILLEGAL WAR. #wedonthirethebest #trumpstercire

I have zero words for the malicious stupendous incompetence displayed by the current unserious administration. #wedonthurethebest #trumpsterfire

At least George Bush played at airing a primary justification for attacking Iraq weapons of mass destruction and secondarily claimed the winds of democracy would flow through the region. Neither of these notions stood the test of time. This Grandpa is just barking mad. #trumpsterfire

Last week, the Supreme Court ruled Donald Trump illegally taxed Americans to the tune of $175 billion. I’m cosponsoring @wyden.senate.gov’s legislation to require that Trump refund those tariffs. Mr. President, give American consumers and small businesses back the money that you owe them.

Putin has been trying to seize control of Donbas since 2014, and still has not succeeded. So now he is begging Trump to give it to him. What an incredible achievement of Ukrainian warriors.

The Epstein Survivors Superbowl ad did not play in our area, which makes me wonder if that was declined by our broadcaster or if it was targeted to only some areas of the country. If it was a broadcaster choice then there's some work to be done. #wedonthirethebest

If memory serves, Google displays google searches on a giant wall in the HQ. All search terms entered in the moment scroll by on this giant wall - words in motion. Coordinating search terms would be kind of fun. Epstein, US Police State, Free The US, to name a few. #trumpsterfire

America is at war with its citizens. Believe the pictures and not the GOP talking points. #wedonthirethebest #trumpsterfire

Telling lies about what we clearly saw will not somehow make the protests stop. It has the exact opposite effect. Stand up and fight back! #wedonthirethebest

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social The Dems need to show stiff resistence to this administration and cut off funding its immoral and illegal tactics. Too many needless deaths and destroyed lives in pursuit of a political agenda. #ripreneealex #wedonthirethebest

I can't understand anyone who thinks our tax dollars should go to support state sanctioned occupation of our cities and the murder of our citizens. This way madness lies. #wedonthirethebest #trumpstergire

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

I'm utterly disturbed by the US invasion of Minnesota. This is their "test" for subduing the US citizenry in advance of provoking a Civil War. Stand up, fight back. They aren't expecting that. #wedonthirethebest #trumpsterfire

"Once these tools are unleashed [ex. overriding the independence of the Fed], they are used by both sides,” Justice Kavanaugh warned. CORRECT. Which is why the hands off GOP should considering fettering their demented leader, cause payback's a bitch. #trumpsterfire
