Team Newsom: Gov Newsom on Colbert

 


THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Governor Newsom has received a lot of feedback on his recent social media posts on Twitter and TikTok.

Democrats love it. Fox News cries about it relentlessly. But what they don't get is the irony of it all -- that it is putting a mirror up to the absurdity of Donald Trump.

Watch this clip from Colbert last night.

Thank you,

more news about groundbreaking this fall. — Barack

Image
Dear friend, Yesterday, I visited Jackson Park, the future home of the Obama Presidential Center, and surprised some of the Center’s future neighbors.  Take a look. We can’t wait to bring this Center to the South Side. For Michelle and me, this project is about more than building a gathering space and museum—it’s an opportunity to bring jobs, investment, and economic opportunity to a neighborhood that’s given us so much.  But we also know that to be successful, this project needs to not just be for the community, it must be built in partnership with the community.    That’s why, this week, I spent time with local business owners at South Shore Brew coffee shop and got to hear from them directly about their hopes for the Center.  I also stopped by the Wolfpack youth football team’s practice and talked to some of the kids who use Jackson Park every day. I came away certain that by working together, we can build a space that will act as an economic catalyst for the...

Barack: Obama Presidential Center is coming...

Image
Dear friends,  When Michelle and I first began thinking about what the Obama Presidential Center could be, one thing was clear to us both: We didn't want to build only a monument to the past—we wanted to build a Center for the future. We hoped to create a place that would nurture and inspire the young people who walked its halls and played in its parks. A place that would invigorate the community that gave us so much. A place that could anchor Chicago as a destination for anyone who wanted to make a difference.  That's why what happened this week is such a big victory. After a thorough review, a judge dismissed a lawsuit against the City of Chicago that sought to prevent the construction of the Obama Presidential Center in Jackson Park. It's a win that will benefit the whole city.  The campus we've got planned will be far more than a museum—it will be a tribute to Chicago's rich history, its defining legacy of progress, and its extraordinarily bright future. I...

Patrick: New Deal origins

Image
I challenge my opponents in this race for U.S. Senate to say: “I oppose raising the Social Security retirement age.” Friend -- Republicans have a dangerous plan in 2016: Reshape Social Security from its New Deal origins into a shadow of its former self. How? Chris Christie, Marco Rubio, and other Republicans are proposing raising the retirement age. These vicious cuts to Social Security hit middle class folks the hardest. As the next United States Senator from Florida, I’ll fight to preserve and protect Social Security. You have my word. Today, I’m challenging the Tea Party candidates who will enter the U.S. Senate race over the coming weeks to join me, and say: “I oppose raising the Social Security retirement age.” If you agree, please sign my petition: Sign my petition challenging my opponents to keep their hands off of the Social Security retirement age >> The Tea Party has manufactured a crisis in Social Security so they can push through radical reforms tha...

Al: Between 1977 and 1980, members of the U.S Armed Forces were exposed to nuclear waste.

Image
robert, Between 1977 and 1980, thousands of members of the U.S Armed Forces were given a duty: Help clean up nuclear test sites in the Marshall Islands. Dressed in t-shirts, shorts, and boots (aka, without protective gear), those service members did their job. Now, about 40 years later, many of those brave men and women face serious health problems. Cancer rates among these veterans is around 35 percent.  And for some reason, they cannot get the compensation they have earned. Congress needs to step up.  Veterans who become ill because they did their duty to this nation should have access to the quality health care they need. They’ve earned it. Today I’m joining with Congressmen Mark Takai, Ted Lieu, Brad Ashford, Mark Takano and Mark Pocan to tell Congress to right this wrong. And as we all know, a grassroots movement is always stronger when we act together. So today, I’m asking you -- will you click here and add your voice? This is an outrageous and inexcusable oversig...

Chris: Why I filibustered

Image
Why I filibustered for gun violence prevention Friend --  I was the Congressman from Newtown, Connecticut when tragedy struck Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14th, 2012. As long as I live, I’ll never forget the scene at the firehouse when twenty-six families were told they would not be reunited with their children and loved ones.  For years, Congress has failed those families and the victims of gun violence all across the country.  That is why yesterday, starting at 11:21 a.m., I decided to stand on the Senate floor and talk for as long as I could about the need to prevent gun violence. And with the help of more than 30 of my colleagues, we demanded immediate action to make our communities safer from gun violence:  I can tell you that as the hours progressed, my colleagues heard your calls for change grow louder and louder. And after almost fifteen hours of filibustering, I was proud to be able to announce that Republicans had agreed to our demand for ...

Barack: US and Cuba relations

Image
Yesterday, after more than 50 years, we began to change America's relationship with the people of Cuba. We are recognizing the struggle and sacrifice of the Cuban people, both in the U.S. and in Cuba, and ending an outdated approach that has failed to advance U.S. interests for decades. In doing so, we will begin to normalize relations between our two countries. I was born in 1961, just over two years after Fidel Castro took power in Cuba, and just as the U.S. severed diplomatic relations with that country. Our complicated relationship with this nation played out over the course of my lifetime -- against the backdrop of the Cold War, with our steadfast opposition to communism in the foreground. Year after year, an ideological and economic barrier hardened between us. That previous approach failed to promote change, and it's failed to empower or engage the Cuban people. It's time to cut loose the shackles of the past and reach for a new and better future with t...

Mary: Typical Conner

Image
Friend, I was so proud of my husband, Conner, after he won the nomination for Senate. Typical Conner -- he didn’t want to stop and rest once he won -- he wanted to get to work. He immediately set off on a 24-hour road trip to listen to the voices of Arkansans. That’s the man I know. The dedicated, hard-working man who’s a wonderful father, a caring husband, a stellar prosecutor -- and who’ll be a U.S. Senator who really understands the needs of our state. But first we need to get him there.  So Team Eldridge is kicking off our Strong, New Voice Campaign to raise $5,000 by noon tomorrow to boost Conner’s chances. Will you chip in $5 or whatever you can? Born and raised here, Conner and I have always loved this great state and the people who live in it, which is why we chose to make a life and raise our three boys here.  Our roots are as deep as Conner’s commitment to fighting to make life better for all Arkansans. When I think about the kind of state and country Arkansans w...
