Keep a close eye on the price of canned goods – it’ll probably go up soon thanks to Trump’s import tax hike on steel and aluminum, which is needed to manufacture cans.
These tariffs are not strategic. Instead, they’re squeezing American businesses and families.

This isn’t meant to ensure public safety; it's meant to scare and intimidate people. And if Trump can do this in California, he can ignore the wishes of *any* governor in *any* state. That’s why we all need to stand up against this unprecedented abuse of power.
Marines are trained for combat – not crowd control, de-escalation, or community policing. So this increases the potential for escalation, poor judgment, and excessive force against Americans who are exercising their constitutional First Amendment rights.
First off, military personnel – including the National Guard and Marines – should not (and under current legal authorities cannot) be used for civilian law enforcement. This represents a serious erosion of the civil-military divide and sets a dangerous precedent.
Deploying Marines to LA isn’t normal. It’s a gross abuse of power similar to what we see from dictators around the world, setting the stage for martial law or full-on authoritarianism.
These immigration raids don’t define us, but our response to them does. I was proud to have dinner at Buona Forchetta to show my support as they deal with the fallout of the raid where agents threw out flash bangs in order to arrest restaurant workers — not hardened criminals.
We can’t take the bait. Donald Trump wants to create public unrest so he can invoke martial law.
Deploying the National Guard to LA is an unnecessary escalation. No one wants their community to become militarized — it raises the potential for people to get hurt and erodes public trust. President Trump, don’t do this.
Yep ⬇️
We need a smart, systematic overhaul of our government – but it’ll take much more than a billionaire *allegedly* on ketamine with a chainsaw to do it.
I’m glad that Kilmar Abrego Garcia will finally have his day in court, which is what everyone in our country – regardless of their citizenship status – is owed.
But the Trump Administration must still answer for failing to uphold the initial court order.
No one is “choosing” to lose their health care but Speaker Johnson and congressional Republicans *are* choosing to give massive tax breaks to the rich and kick people off their insurance.
Trump & RFK’s deep cuts to public health are hurting our daily lives.
Practical, impactful programs like low-cost community swimming lessons to reduce drowning have been eliminated.
We deserve a government that protects us from *preventable* diseases and injuries.
Once again, Republicans in Congress and the Trump Admin are straight up lying to you about their budget bill.
Most adults on Medicaid who CAN work ARE working – and most of the rest are caregivers, students, or have health issues.
Millions of Americans WILL lose coverage and people WILL die.
Firing and then rehiring government workers with critical jobs, like weather forecasting – where’s the efficiency?
One of America’s greatest strengths is that we welcome the best and brightest from all over the world and encourage them to drive innovation – often right here in San Diego.
Trump’s attacks on science will hold us back while other countries race ahead.
Senator Joni Ernst seems to think killing constituents by ripping away their health care is a big joke.
Republicans in Congress have sacrificed so much of their humanity to Trump’s cruel politics that they have literally forgotten that KILLING PEOPLE IS BAD.

Harvey Milk was a selfless patriot, devoting his life to serving his country and fighting for LGBTQ+ rights. He’s earned his recognition in our history books and on this Naval ship. Removing his name during Pride Month is wrong, but we won’t let it erase his legacy.
The average cost of daycare for a toddler and an infant in California is now $39,300 per year.
As the cost of everything continues to rise, we need to increase our investment in child care to address our broken system.
If the Senate passes Republicans' budget, it would be devastating for millions of family caregivers and their sick or disabled loved ones.
Medicaid coverage for transportation, meal support, and in-home care is a lifeline. We can’t let Republicans rip this away.

Riot gear, smoke grenades, flash bangs, and mass arrests are dangerous and unnecessarily escalatory. Bystanders and families easily could have gotten hurt.
This is unacceptable.
