I’ve made up my mind for 2026. I vote for @ASDem. Both on @KQED’s Political Breakdown and this @PodSaveAmerica video, he provides the most sober and honest analysis of the Governor’s race, strategy and messaging. A must watch. youtu.be/BbtfVVu_Bok?si…

As CA AG, @XavierBecerra was a hero of the Democratic resistance, suing the Trump administration more than 120 times. But critics say that on some issues closer to home, he sided with powerful interest groups, including law enforcement and oil. kqed.org/news/12083992

There's arguably no more relevant experience in the California governor's race than Xavier Becerra's time as Attorney General. So how did he do? from @mlagos kqed.org/news/12083992/…




We asked @GavinNewsom former campaign manager @ASDem to size up the current governor’s race. @GuyMarzorati @KQEDnews podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pol…


Dana Williamson, Newsom's former chief , will plead guilty to 3 counts including one related to conspiring to steal campaign funds from a dormant account of Xavier Becerra's. Factual basis for the plea says she made false statements to XB abt the funds politico.com/news/2026/05/1…
