I understand, and don't necessarily promote what Schiff did..however, who ever is running this state will need to combat far worse tricks and underhanded tactics from maga. She needs to learn how to do that, then she will be ready.

How do you combat your opponent taking corporate money and then basically giving $10 million of it to the Republican "opponent", who is not even really running, so that you can coast to victory? Schiff and Padilla are both moderate pro-'Crypto Bros' who cannot be trusted. Both have helped Trump!

Let me put it this way...whatever Schiff threw at Katie isn't anything like what the republicans will throw at the next dem candidate in this state. I'm looking for the candidate that "can" combat it, because they will have to.

So, you are voting for mild-mannered Padilla over Porter because even though his is a moderate pro-Crypto bro, corporate-money-loving centrist, he is a man and therefore, is more likely to be able to "combat" against Trump? He has literally done nothing to stop Trump yet and he's a Senator!

Actually, I did't say I was voting for Padilla...I said I was considering him and like "most" of what he's done as a senator.. It's too far away from election day and too many candidates to set my vote in stone. You're assuming a lot. My mind is still open and I'm watching what all of them do.

Agreed but since I am very much a left progressive, Katie Porter is much more to my liking than a moderate like Padilla. And your mind might still be open but when I start seeing the same BS we saw with Clinton and Harris (Not "executive"-material), I suspect closed minded misogyny for many.

Wow. Ben and Jerrys continues to be run by people who give a shit I see. I understand the reluctance of pols to criticize Israel because it has long been an ally of the US, has supported women's rights and gay rights, etc, and they want to be clear that they support Am Jews but it is getting absurd.

Yep. She is so much more of a fighter.
