BREAKING: Gavin Newsom has broken Donald Trump’s hold on America. New polling shows Newsom skyrocketing as Trump flails. Wow.

Today, I'm delivering to the Legislature the 2025 State of the State. On our state's 175th anniversary, Californians remain steadfast in defending our democracy. Powered by our indelible Golden State spirit, we'll continue to be brighter and more prosperous than ever.

This is the richest country on earth. 800,000 Americans should not be homeless, and 20 million more should not be spending over half their incomes on rent or a mortgage. We need to invest in affordable housing, not Trump’s massive tax breaks for billionaires.

Today, I had the opportunity to meet with the Brighton Park Neighborhood Council and other leaders to support their critical work during this uncertain moment. Let's stand together and we'll get through this, Illinois.

Trump just got BOOED in Washington DC as he entered a restaurant for dinner. The American people hate him!

Protesters chanting at Trump at the restaurant

Kennedy: I don't hate anyone but Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez is a creation of the media. She checks all the boxes. She's young, she's liberal, she's attractive, she's ethnic. Her problem is that she's shallow as a puddle

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, JB Pritzker just announced he is ready to take Donald Trump to court over his sending the military to Chicago. This is the energy we need right now.

To my Republican colleagues: You are lawmakers. Write some laws—help people. Do your jobs. Don’t just hand the pen to Russ Vought and call it a day.

Rep. Moskowitz: "So you're telling me someone 22 years ago went back to the future and forged his signature when he was a Democrat, and somehow this person knew he would become a Republican and become president 22 years later?...We should immediately open up an investigation!"

.@JamesTalarico: We have a lot more work to do if we’re going to defeat the billionaire megadonors who have taken over this country, but this is an incredible start. This is truly a campaign of, by, and for the people

Host: New Mexico is set to become the first state to offer free universal childcare. The state's Democratic governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, announced free childcare for all families, regardless of income, a move estimated to save families $12,000 per child each year

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk: "Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is blaming Charlie Kirk being shot on President Trump and January 6th.

Charlie Kirk (2023): "I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe."

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

TO MY GREAT FELLOW AMERICANS…

BREAKING: Democratic leadership just came together and delivered the most powerful rebuke of Donald Trump’s dangerous and divisive rhetoric we’ve seen. We need more of this.

Obama did it Better: After Dylann Roof murdered nine Black worshippers in the Emanuel AME Church, President Obama told America the victims' families prayed with the killer in court. Unlike Trump, he sought to unite, not divide. That's leadership.

The murder of Charlie Kirk is part of a disturbing rise in political violence that threatens to hollow out our public life. A free society relies on the premise that people can speak out without fear or humiliation. No more political violence.
