Trump says let Iran "take out Los Angeles or San Diego"

The top 0.1% of Americans now hold more than six times more wealth than the bottom half.

Californians deserve better.

If you live in California and are confused about the upcoming elections please vote Yes on 40. No on 41 and 42. I’m a teacher of 25 years. We need to vote yes on 40. It’s a one time tax on those earning over 1 billion dollars. The rich people are paying for the “no” ads.

Trusted media outlets are coming together to urge you to vote No on Prop 39 to prevent legitimate ballots from being rejected.

What a sad state of affairs when a president can joke about letting Iran “take out” Los Angeles or San Diego and it barely makes news. Can you imagine the outrage if any other president said that? America – we can do better than this.

Californians' lives are not expendable in Donald Trump's unhinged, reckless war in Iran. This is yet another callous comment from the tyrant in the White House who dragged the American people into a war that we do not want.

Jimmy Kimmel took aim at Donald Trump after the president invited Iran to bomb California. "That’s one of the craziest, indefensible statements I’ve ever heard even this maniac make." Watch: rollingstone.com/tv-movies/t…

I share this gentleman's sentiments.

IMAGINE IF PRESIDENT @BarackObama OR @JoeBiden SAID THIS ABOUT ANY AMERICAN CITY FOR THAT MATTER. IT'S NOT ONLY WHERE IS CONGRESS, IT SHOULD BE WHERE IS MEDIA? WHERE IS PRESS? WHERE ARE OUR COURTS? WHERE ARE PROTESTS IN THE STREETS IN EVERY CITY?

Statement from 43 Members of Congress from California regarding Trump’s attacks on Los Angeles and San Diego:

Real wage growth was negative for the fifth month in a row in August.

Privilege does not see itself. That is why it is privilege.

Robert De Niro: “Every day there’s a new atrocity adding to the climate of outrage and sorrow. Unspeakable cruelty, unprecedented corruption, blatant disregard for human life and humanity, malignant narcissism, the lies, the stupidity. As horrific as all that is, his hoarding of the Epstein Files is its own category of evil. The abuse of children is a crime that belongs in the lowest circle of hell reviled only by the vermin who protect them. They sicken me. The 3.5M files in the Trump-Epstein Bookmobile tell only half the story. One man is standing in the way of releasing the rest: Donald Trump”

Thirty-plus years later, and nothing has changed at Cornell. It's a odd culture this frat thing, all good to hang out with your friends and party etc but this is just a sausage party with secrets.

ICYMI. Reporter: "Isn't there concern that this slippery slope to socialism inevitably ends up as full-blown communism?" Classic AOC response... WATCH: #DemsUnited

Private equity is a literal vampire /devil. The private equity business model ought to be outlawed.

A few things I found while building the 2026 Midterm Candidate Due Diligence site. Ken Paxton Jr. has raised over $87M from outside groups for this election, AIPAC looks to be buying MD candidates, and AI and Data Centers are buying Darline Graham. Jeff Yass and Miram Adelson lead the individual contributors with Elon Musk in the top 4. And nationally there is $1.75 billion in outside money this cycle. It's getting messy in the Midterm streets. But you no longer have to be blind to who owns your candidate. You can look each candidate up by state and district. Link to the site is in my pinned post. I hope you all are enjoying it!

I'm voting YES on Prop 40, the California billionaire tax. Here's why.

Here's a parody about the price of gas having soared (with everything else) since the Iran war, called "Gasoline". It's adapted from the classic "Jolene" by the incredible Dolly Parton who sadly died a few weeks ago, but left an incredible legacy of music, generosity & heart ❤️
