I also feel like Justin Bieber signing the Anne Frank guestbook saying he "hoped she would have been a belieber" is something I think about a couple of times a year....

A lot of people talk about courage in public life. This is what it looks like in practice. Proud of my Governor.

this will sound mean but PLEASE get over things faster. You don’t want to waste your good years being angry, bitter, and sad.

Hindutva (right wing Hindu nationalists) are on an incredible losing streak in America: ❌Raja Krishnamoorthi ❌Shri Thanedar ❌Jenifer Rajkumar ❌Rakhi Israni So thankful for @Hindus4HR @HfHRAction SACRED and all our progressive South Asian allies.

Dems like Shri Thanedar, Raja Krishnamoorthi, Jenifer Rajkumar lost their Primaries despite the backing of wealthy Desi donors & likely because of their lack of progressive alignment. Progressive Hindu orgs supported their non South Asian opponents in these races who all won.

Y'all the funniest part of this quote from our DA is that they have second-year attorneys prosecuting life cases... SECOND. YEAR. ATTORNEYS. Give me a break. capradio.org/articles/2026/1…

JUST IN: A federal judge is encouraging his colleagues to call ICE officers in for live testimony on the witness stand, concluding that without direct scrutiny and cross-examination, routine lies will go unpunished. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

Just watched an immigration court hearing for a detained 15 yr old that started out with the judge asking about his Halloween plans & ended with her ordering him deported. The lack of justice for immigrant kids right now in our immigration courts is stunningly diabolical.

Honestly, things are tight with this mortage --but gotta make one last donation to @MaiForUs. The @hasanthehun stream was absolutely wonderful. Ignore the rhetoric, watch the video. Because why is @DorisMatsui loaning herself $7mil to buy her seat?

It’s pathological and it’s probably slowly killing us.

The way a lawyer can be having the worst week of their life and still show up looking composed to advise somebody else on how to solve their problems needs to be studied.

There's not enough immigration attorneys to help all the folks getting detained in Sacramento right now. There never were. How can we address this? We don't have time to wait for folks to graduate.

🚨New $50,000 Reward🚨 It's been fifteen years since these murders but I still have faith that somewhere there is a kind soul that has information that can provide justice for these families and our community. Truly appreciate the Governor's staff that reviewed this case and recommended it for a new $50,000 reward that might prompt someone to come forward. Thank you to all the local media outlets that helped keep this story alive today. Share if you can.🙏🏾

Won an award and the happiest person at work for me is going to be that security guard who sees me work random days/times/holidays for the past 4+ years.

Male attorneys already trying to mansplain to me their theories on why I got the award (not merit, obvi).

"Within a year, they would hand over the equivalent of 10% of Ingram to ICE." “For context, I’ve deported like 6of their family members, and they’re still friendly to me,” he says. “So I’m not the monster they make me out to be.” What an absolute piece of trash. Blood money.

Yo @ChocFishCoffee! Making folks buy something before letting them use the restroom is so offputting. The more good will you earn...the more future customers. Do better.

You guys, the post-conviction case I had on the top of my to-do list--the governor granted him a pardon. I'm not crying, you're crying.
