The @XavierBecerra is leading CA gov’s race, and gaining, despite @TomSteyer dropping $150M+ while every rival attacks Becerra nonstop. That wasn't supposed to happen. Voters are consolidating behind an experienced Latino Democrat with deep California roots. Money and attack ads were supposed to bury him. They haven't. 1/5

.@TomSteyer offered money for endorsements when he ran for president. Will be interesting to see the full accounting of what was paid for this round….

Remember, this isn’t the first time Steyer tried to buy influence. He used this unethical billionaire tactic to try to buy his way into the White House. He failed, so he’s trying to buy California’s governor race. Repeat performance of #SteyerTheLiar. nbcnews.com/politics/2020-…

I've been blocked by Elon. An honor, sir. I'll make sure the Martian atmosphere returns the compliment.

So, the DSA and League of Enshittified Voters have endorsed Steyer. The billionaire, with habits of a crazy person (like drawing Hegseth tattoos on his hand during debates) and no government experience. Fuck that. No Kings. No Boliburguesía either.

"Mr. Espina acknowledged... the campaign had paid him but said he did not think he needed to put a disclaimer... because he wasn’t being paid to post. Instead, he said, he was hired as a consultant with expertise on Latino issues." Oh, honey... nytimes.com/2026/05/16/bus…

You can believe he is different based on the fact that he is paying you to post on his behalf and no one else is. I guess. We’ve reached the point in politics where, like so much in society, you can pay to manufacture “authenticity.” Personality laundering.

@DalyPolitics @kenbensinger @TomSteyer I know that @XavierBecerra will always put California first and not his own pocketbook or investments. Enough of the faux Billionaire progressive trying to buy the Presidency (2020) and Governorship (2026)…find another side-hustle.

@RicTorresII @kenbensinger @TomSteyer Xavier Becerra is an establishment, statis quo, barely competent, pro-corporate, pro-Israel, milquetoast centrist. And you know it.

Paid influence is increasingly rampant. I found out that: Tom Steyer paid TikTok star Carlos Espina $100K to endorse his campaign Jessica Reed Kraus was paid to attack an NYT reporter on X Dom Lucre was paid as much as $15K to support Trump's BBB nytimes.com/2026/05/16/bus…

Buttigieg on Sean Duffy: "I love roadtrips. I love America. I actually took a taxpayer-funded roadtrip lasted about 7 months. It was in Afghanistan. This is something very different. To make roadtrips unaffordable and then go around celebrating your own roadtrip is actually what people are so frustrated about."

The sky's the limit with this President! Please share my latest syndicated editorial cartoon. Catch more at GoComics.com/laloalcaraz

He compromised all his values and voted for RFK Jr and still lost his senate seat.

This is a must read. Billionaire @TomSteyer's campaign is a bridge too far for the Democratic Party. Please take note @GovPritzker. Thanks, @madrid_mike for stitching it all together so well.

@RebeccaKKatz Fixed it.

Bro killed everyone's motivation 😂

Tom Steyer will buy an influencer, buy an ad, buy whatever it he can — and then dress it up like a movement. This house of cards scheme might be illegal. It’s definitely an insult to our intelligence.

“I have a Latinx friend” - Tom Steyer

Looks like Billionaire @TomSteyer's Paid Informant Program may have set up @foosgonewild to catch an @FPPC case...if Lil Mister E needs counsel...he should reach out to Stanford Law Graduate @AGBecerra...😉 #TSEW #PIU #TSEW

@marindatanow Say it ain't so, brother @AdrianSaenz...porfis #BecerraEra
