Notice how the most celebrated and successful space mission in *decades* was run by at least 50% “DEI hires”—not all white men? And not even all Americans. Maybe diversity *is* strength . . .

Chad Bianco is polling No 2 in the CA governor’s race and loves to talk about “waste, fraud, and abuse.”

In 2023 - total compensation as Riverside sheriff was $593,518, a huge leap over his predecessor’s salary and much higher than the current governor’s salary.

Does waste include his bloated pay?

“.. He fought back tears as he explained what was there before: two wooden shelters, an outpost to make cheese, sheds for his equipment. The horse paddock was spared, but the chicken coop was gone.”

Say it again for the people pretending not to hear:
you don’t get to blame ghosts of presidents past.

There is only one president right now and this is his terrible, horrible, no good, very bad mess. 👇

Insider trading by the President would not be an official act, therefore he'd have no immunity if charged.

“I am political,” Ms. Rachel told me of her new effort to free kids from ICE detention.

“It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love … and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border. Mr. Rogers was very political.”

Hey #California

This guy is the sheriff in my county.

You very, very much do NOT want him as CA governor.

In June 2024, this county sheriff recorded this short, jaw-dropping vid, in uniform, in his patrol car, and then proudly posted it himself:

This is why California Dems are freaking the F out. Chad Bianco is polling number 2 in the latest poll for the governor’s race.

Not only has he seized more than 650,000 ballots from last November’s election, he’s an election denier and had ties to the Oath Keepers, which he acknowledged years ago.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance.

But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain.

He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again.

He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Alexi Pretti was a loved and respected nurse helping critically ill veterans.
He was beaten and murdered on the streets of Minneapolis by paramilitaries in the employ of Donald Trump.
This is not a nation that can be trusted at any level.
