@Lanier4SF @MattMahanSJ Nah, people will keep moving out because it's still the same Democrat bullshit.
English
Californians have voted with their feet, more people have moved out of the state than into the state over the last decade. @MattMahanSJ as governor will turn this around with his focus on "good governance." He has a track record ➡️ reducing unsheltered homelessness as mayor of San Jose.
Mayor Matt Mahan@MattMahanSJ
I know that government can make people’s lives better because I’ve experienced it firsthand. That’s what we need to focus on, and that’s why I’m running to be your next governor.

@curtis_yarvin Science is not a thing to believe in. It is a method of empirical investigation, which you have clearly not bothered with to reach these nonsensical conclusions.
English
Note that since we are all identical (under the skin), and all born with an identical soul from the standard Antechamber of Souls, the same lives would work well for all of us. Yes I am a Liberal and believe in Science

A nice adaptation of Rawls’ veil of ignorance. For an even wider perspective of your fortunes, draw a marble not just from the pool of 8 billion extant humans, but from the 100 billion humans who ever lived.

The Government of Spain demands the opening of Hormuz and the preservation of all the energy sites of the Middle East.
We stand at a global tipping point. Further escalation could trigger a long-term energy crisis for all humanity.
The world should not pay the consequences of this war.

@Chris_arnade @_parody_burner Meet Mary Fong Lau. She wiped out an entire family by driving her Mercedes into a bus stop at high speed. Got probation and a suspended license for 3 years.
English
@_parody_burner Yeah dude. this would be like if a driver with 30 prior at fault felony crashes was let go because of restorative justice

Every transit nerd — the urbanist who tell us over and over how much they love public transportation— has to realize until you stop this sort of crap, and make stopping it your number one goal, you and all your train love are doing nothing but annoying everyone else.

Insane Chicago train rider swinging what looks like 2 hammers says he is going to kill white people, and adds that he got out two days ago.

@ZavalaA According to Google search he's slumming it in a ~$45k electric Mustang. That's his daily driver. Fun car is a ~$150k '67 Corvette.

Tom Steyer has big plans for corporate taxes and new California spending if elected, but how will he protect taxpayer money against waste & fraud?
TS: I'm the cheapest guy you've ever met
AZ: Give me an example
He says he has one pair of sneaks and a "cheap" car:

@brianschatz Its also a lack of money at this point. I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the ENTIRE federal discretionary budget ($1.8 TRILLION) is borrowed money at this point.
English
For the amount of money the Pentagon is requesting for this insane war we could eliminate hunger in America for a decade. The problem in our country is not a lack of money, it’s a lack of moral clarity.

@latimes Show valid ID at the polls. Super easy. Solved the problem for you.

@MattMahanSJ The second you grow the balls to point out that "Sacramento" is 80% Democrat in this context is the second you get my vote. i.e. never
English
In San Jose, our gift limit is $50. In Sacramento last year, lawmakers raked in $1.2 million in gifts and travel. Spa days, luxury golf clubs, box seats — perks that may improve their lives, but not yours. We need to rein in special interests and remember that the only group without a lobbyist in Sacramento is the people.

@ZavalaA @AsmwomanMacedo As someone else pointed out, isn't then quite morbid that Farmworker's Day falls on the birthday of the alleged rapist that we can no longer name the day after?
English
Assemblywoman @AsmwomanMacedo says renaming Cesar Chavez day to Farmworkers Day will be a rare bipartisan moment at the California State Capitol next week.
Will lawmakers look further into UFW and allegations?
She says she thinks this is just the tip of the iceberg.
English
@marcjoffe It's a bit like being forced to keep a smart phone for authentication. It will be necessary to eat the cost of the system to maintain official correspondence without a sufficient replacement. Like a smart phone, that also unfortunately means a lot of junk.
English
Even if it raises the cost of sending a first class letter to over 90 cents, the Postal Service will continue losing money.
Let's face it fellow boomers: surface mail is going the way of the land line and casette tapes.

@CleanLAwithMe meanwhile, a few years back people were calling the cops on their neighbors if their lawn irrigation dribbled a cup of water onto the sidewalk.

Is this legal in Los Angeles? I’ve seen many places where people open the fire hydrants around the city.

@aodanhill This is actually exactly how it goes in reality as well. People play at being socialist.
English
Socialism failed so miserably whenever it was tried in real life that socialists are now role-playing on Minecraft to try to establish their first successful economy. Impressive.
Jacobin@jacobin
Against the odds, the denizens of Minecraft’s socialist Xeroist Republic of Zilatra have worked together to overcome a hostile player base and an in-game economy that rewards competition, exploitation, and greed: jacobin.com/2026/03/the-mi…

@Rickisback_ON_X We know the state is corrupt as hell at many levels, but we not only need the proof, we need it over and over to drive this corruption out of here.
English
For those that missed it, because the MSM is not reporting it: The Special Election in California last November, where Prop 50 passed and the redistricting is occurring, is under investigation. Apparently several Advocacy groups obtained information online that shows there were approximately 50K more ballots counted than what the SOS reported.
The AG, Rob Bonta, attempted to put an end to the Investigation being run by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. Bonta sued and the judge denied his motion to quash the investigation. The judge further ordered that a Special Master be appointed to count the ballots.
It continues..............

@HSRail To be fair they're going pretty slow most of the time, so they have issues on both stances.
English
“It’s not about how fast you go, it’s about how slow you don’t go,” said David Fink, administrator of the FRA.
It’s another way of saying: We’ll never have high-speed rail. We’ll never have what’s common across the world.
We must raise expectations.

The entirety of Cuba is without power except for the Cosplay Socialist Influencer hotel and Cubans are pissed.

Aquí están las ratas comunistas que los vinieron a #Cuba a explicar la transición energética y que lo estamos mal, y que todo es culpa del bloqueo o sea la energía solo para ellos. En el hotel gran Bristol. #MeResingoEnTuRevolucion

@MattMahanSJ @bilalmahmood I realize this has become some bizarre trend among liberal politicians of late, but I went back and notice that we didn't hear a peep from you at Christmas. Care to explain this inconsistency in religious well wishes?
English
Eid Mubarak California! @bilalmahmood and I wish all our neighbors who celebrate, a Ramadan filled with peace, love, light.
English
@katieporterca Uh, what power does the Governor of a state have to abolish a federal agency?
English
I’m not just running to be California’s first woman governor. I’m fighting for things that the other candidates in this race haven’t even mentioned—from passing free universal childcare to abolishing ICE and protecting immigrant families.
Katie Porter@katieporterca
From being the first single mom of young kids in Congress to running to be California’s first woman Governor—my mission hasn't changed. California deserves a Governor who understands the daily battle of affordability because she’s lived it.
English
@jenvanlaar Or as I asked in another tweet: will we be taxed for out-of-state mileage?
English
How do they propose to charge people who don't live here but drive in to visit?
Supervisor Jim Desmond@jim_desmond
California politicians just moved AB 1421 through the Assembly — a bill that orders the state to build a mileage tax system by 2027. Not "study." Not "explore." Implement. That means tracking every mile you drive — then taxing you for it. On top of gas taxes. On top of registration fees. On top of sales taxes. On top of local transportation taxes. This is a commuter punishment aimed straight at working families who drive to work, drive their kids to school, and drive to pick up groceries. Sound familiar? SANDAG tried this exact scheme right here in San Diego County. Residents found out. Commuters spoke up. Small businesses pushed back. They backed down. We stopped it once. We'll stop it again.
