Fire and animal evacuation info, esp. Northern Cal: BE READY, and have a plan for your pets! Generally pro-compassion and civil rights.

Remember: Republicans in Congress can put a stop to this at any time.

@SPaulsonKTVU How far north? Flooding concerns for lower Russian River region?

This didn’t get enough media attention when it happened so I’m posting it again. The Biden’s were not only innocent, they were framed. And the GOP knew it and amplified the lie anyway.

@SPaulsonKTVU 1.32” at my location in Guerneville as of 10:00am.

@SPaulsonKTVU Thank you, Steve! Guerneville so far: .26” between midnight and 8am, very little in the last couple of hours. “Backing off a bit on rain totals” sounds good to me! We had over 13” in the last storm system.

Heavy rain has already fallen north of San Francisco, and it's going to continue (even intensify) between now and Friday night. In fact, an *additional* 6-12 inches, locally 15+, could fall across portions of northern Sonoma & Mendocino Counties next 72 hrs. #CAwx #CAwater [2/4]

Residents can get help evacuating large animals due to the #mountainfire by calling Ventura County Animal Services. https://t.co/xzwZZzckqR

How much do you think undocumented immigrants pay into Social Security? And how much Social Security do undocumented immigrants receive?

This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala

Hey CA peeps…

Please don’t make the mistake of thinking that since we’re a blue state, your vote doesn’t matter!

Yes, the EC is bullshit; but in order to win back the House — which we absolutely MUST do — flipping those congressional seats in CA is ESSENTIAL!!!

Please, please, PLEASE VOTE!!!

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

Putin is an enemy of the United States. He is also an international war criminal. Imagine American businesspeople calling Hitler during World War II. Or Stalin during the Cold War.

Do you have an Evacuation Plan in Place? Remember the “Six P’s” and keep them ready in case immediate evacuation is required.
