Say the outlet that CEO wants to bring back Serfdom and feudalism mixed with cyberpunk dystopia.

Hmm, can Politico do a profile on the fraudster in the White House? Why is it journalistically OK to call this guy a fraudster, but not the president?

Because if this guy sues they'll run to Trump to stop the lawsuit.

Politico part of MAGA propaganda machine now. Lots of Californians are talking about or wanting us to secede. But we’re not looking for some unelected messiah like maga.

Tech corporations need a developing country for cheap labor. Im sure they dream of hoarding the coast & eliminating labor laws in their very own country. California is halfway there.

The petition is out now but it won't get the signatures. The petition has to be downloaded, printed and mailed. But there's NO doubt in my mind that CA voters would want to see this on the ballot. The people behind this are, as shown here, a joke. Evans is the closest to legit. It's a shame.

So...this is a big deal for those of us in California. It's an idea people want to see but those behind aren't reputable enough to make it happen. And I think the idea of a state considering what it would take to secede from the U.S., which most Californians support, is a little newsworthy, no?

Wait,,,what!? @jkkeck.bsky.social

Same as me except for the fraudster part. I want to make all the blue states (as well as any others who want to join as long as they pay their own way) a different country.

Hey 🖕 @politico, you're FoxNewsFakery on the corrupt left. You may as well rename your bullshit outfit "Corrupt Predator Cuomo Owns Us." No one buys your dirty lies. Zohran was referring to a cop who cried when Biden won in 2020. Fuk you & your dishonest censorship. www.politico.com/news/2025/07...
