Donald Trump was all for early, absentee, and mail-in voting as long as it helped him and Republicans. Now he’s flipped, parroting Putin, a foreign dictator who has no place in America’s democracy. Trump doesn’t want fair elections, he just wants elections he can rig.

Release the files.

As the former U.S. Ambassador to Hungary, I witnessed firsthand the early rise of Viktor Orbán and the consolidation of power that followed. Yesterday, the Hungarian people made their voices heard—choosing a new path that puts democracy, accountability, and the future of their country first.

The long weekend is a great time to fill out your ballot, California! Voting is one of the greatest pleasures of American democracy, and I encourage everyone to participate and be part of the voices that shape the future of our great state.

This month, I read ‘Heart the Lover’ by Lily King & it took me back to late nights writing creatively, finding my voice, & falling in love with storytelling. It reminded me why a liberal arts education matters: it teaches us how to think deeply, feel fully & tell our stories. Highly recommend! 📚✨

For this month’s book club, I read Governor @gavinnewsom.bsky.social’s autobiography, Young Man in a Hurry. The book offers an insightful look at his life, with a detailed first-person account of the challenges he faced. I highly recommend it and look forward to hearing everyone’s thoughts on it.

I saw the authoritarian playbook up close as Ambassador to Hungary. Viktor Orbán was calculated. Trump is reckless — tanking the economy, targeting workers & going after California, the state that gives America its biggest paycheck. His power games are hurting lives & livelihoods for Americans.

California, we are one day away from Election Day! Your ballot must be postmarked by Election Day, so today is a great day to drop it in the mailbox or return to it to a vote center. In order for democracy to work, we all need to participate, so be sure to go to vote.ca.gov to make your plan.

Honored to have the support of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi — a mentor, a friend, & one of CA’s greatest leaders. As Treasurer, I’ll invest in affordable housing & infrastructure to create jobs & tackle our housing crisis head-on. Grateful for her confidence as we keep fighting for CA’s future.

Democracy is under threat, and Americans today have fewer freedoms than generations before. But we will never back down. This is America. We are a nation of rebels, and we the people—not one man—will shape the future.

You can’t outplay this bad habit, no matter how much you grind. #fyp #gaming #cs2 #mindset #gamingperformance

Very impressed with Unreal Engine 5.6's updates for translucency and refraction. So many choices now !

We are seeing people exploit international war crimes for their own political gain. A video circulating online doesn't show the full statement I made. It was edited to take out what I was responding to, and tries to discredit my work fighting for Palestinian rights. It is beyond is unacceptable.

“We've managed to confuse Putin, he has no idea what we will do,” Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski said during the GLOBSEC Forum.

L’abordabilité est la priorité absolue de nombreux Canadiens et Canadiennes, et notre nouveau gouvernement libéral travaille sans relâche à faire baisser le coût de la vie.

HOW TO WIN A TRADE WAR ...Part 2 of my chat with Richard Quest on @cnn.com about our book

Pahahaha 🤭😂 Das war jetzt klar oder?

today we moved some of the tadpoles, only little ones I could find with my son moved them into the South pond that we covered with wire mesh. Don’t worry the frogs won’t drowned. We put burlap on the sides and we will have PVC pipe running out of the pond that the frogs can climb into.

Just Like they hid for a while the CIA Reagan Iran-Contra Scandal, the Media is hiding “Hondurasgate" now, involving a highly coordinated plot between the United States, Israel & Honduras to destabilize progressive governments in Latin America & restore a convicted drug trafficker to power

#OxfordStudy goes by #Eurogamy in sociology and it's related to #InternalizedRacism as shown by Sociologist Karen Pyke. 2 Asian American authors where 1 of them are queer push the Oxford Study Narrative while an Asian makes a movie about wanting to be white. #FightAsianHate

Segal then said that while she is no longer the President of the ECAJ bcoz of her now “independent” role, she “can’t be removed” from ECAJ because of a “technical” matter, before admitting she has hired an ECAJ “specialist” to work in her office.🤦‍♂️ Unbelievable. #auspol
