I wonder if the past few days will cause a Nobel moment for Shitler. Will he understand how many people look forward to his death, and change his ways in his remaining time? I suppose that would require a conscience and shame, of which he has neither? I do remain hopeful.

It’s likely CA GOP is responsible for mailers sent to Californians falsely claiming League of Women Voters opposes Prop 50, re redistricting. LWV’s statement below, they are taking a neutral position. Please spread the word. Stop the GOP disinformation. Vote for Prop 50 #Prop50 lwvc.org/prop50/

I've been hesitant to support you running for president (mostly because of losing you as governor) but after seeing how you have stood up to Shitler, WITHOUT putting your finger to the wind first, I am ALL for you running in 2028. Keep up the good fight.

What is needed are people with advanced understanding of finance and corporate financial structure to develop these ideas and make suggestions to the powers-that-be and also to be able to explain them in simple terms.

I'm all for any incentives (carrots or sticks) that compel companies to 'do the right thing', because companies (corps, not always small companies) will always try to maximize profits. If setting up incentives/penalities to pay a living wage, makes them do so, great...etc.

The national public school meal debt is estimated at $176 million a year. Personally, I believe we should have Universal Free Lunch in all 50 States for grades K4–12. Children shouldn’t go hungry because their families are poor.

I would go to a university that has the equipment to engrave a grain or rice. I would then have them engrave the commandants on a plaque, so small that it would be apparent that I complied, but all but impossible to read. When confronted, I would point out that I followed the letter of the law.
