Attorney General Bonta Opposes Federal Effort to Strip Housing Support for Mixed-Status Immigrant Households Tens of thousands of Californians are at risk of eviction OAKLAND — California Attorney General Rob Bonta today co-led a coalition of 22 attorneys general in submitting a comment letter opposing a pro...

The Trump admin is attempting to strip housing support away from American children and families who live with an immigrant family member.

We’re opposing.

Attorney General Bonta Secures Critical Win in Nexstar/Tegna Merger Challenge, Court Orders Titans to Halt Merging Court grants states’ request for a preliminary injunction OAKLAND — California Attorney General Rob Bonta today issued the following statement after the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of...

We’ve secured a court order halting the merger of Nexstar/Tegna while our case continues — a critical win.

This merger is illegal, plain and simple. The federal govt may have thrown in the towel, but we’ll keep fighting for consumers, for workers, for affordability, and for our local news.

It’s comedically deranged to put the central sections of two incredibly long light rail lines on that a single street-running track though. I generally know the specific series of events explaining why this sorta makes sense, but it’s wild to spend billions building around an operational nightmare.

Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor penguins at risk of extinction Record low levels of Antarctic sea ice is having grim consequences for penguins yet to grow waterproof feathers

20 years ago,“March of the Penguins” created a bit of a conservative cultural moment by showing male and female Emperor penguin partners enduring incredible hardship to hatch and raise a single chick, while making no arguments about climate heating. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

it’s true that overall likes are way down on bluesky over the past year. however, if you look closely at the data, that’s mostly an anomaly resulting from the fact that your posts specifically have gotten worse and are dragging the vibe down.

I hope this is driving home to folks that anti-DEI/anti-woke are functioning mostly as a way to make racism more palatable by framing it as a kind of defensive reaction to an imagined unfairness.

Strange to frame this as a US missile “hit a sports center and school,” seeing as the story itself says that we apparently “killed at least 21 people, including young girls playing volleyball.”
