The Republicans attacks on the No Kings protests are sickening.
To them, only pro-Trump speech is protected. If you oppose Trump - you "hate America" or you're a "terrorist".
What they're trying to do is simple: suppress turnout this weekend. Don't let them win.
We demand @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris avert the impending Middle East war by ending Israel’s genocide in Gaza now.
The long-feared regional war is looming in the Middle East and could easily spin out of control into a wider conflict. The Biden-Harris administration is pouring gasoline on the fire by sending massive arms and troops to back Israel, whose aggressive actions have long been pushing for expanded war.
The Biden-Harris administration must stop this at once and fix the crisis at its source - by ceasing all weapons and support to Israel until it ends its genocide in Gaza and agrees to negotiate a settlement for Palestine and the region consistent with international law and the rulings of the International Court of Justice.
After Israel’s back to back assassinations in Beirut and Tehran last week, Iran has met with allies including Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Yemen and Iraqi militias to plan joint action against Israel and US bases in Iraq and Syria. By responding with warships, destroyers, fighter jets and potentially land-based missile defense and troops, the US is proposing to take direct part in the imminent war that could easily go nuclear.
Some Israeli leaders have already suggested using nuclear weapons. Such a war could trigger nuclear winter - a reduction in sunlight due to debris from nuclear explosions suspended in the upper atmosphere for years, which can cause global famine with the potential to end civilization as we know it. By funding and arming Israel, and refusing to rein in its rampage, the Biden-Harris administration is now putting Americans and the world in the crosshairs of Israel’s genocidal aggression.
The US must not be dragged into a disastrous regional war by an Israeli government seeking cover to continue its genocide in Gaza.
It’s long past time for the US to end the genocide in Gaza that it is enabling. The US is providing the vast majority of weapons being used by Israel in Gaza, as well as financial assistance, intelligence and diplomatic cover. By halting all support for Israel’s genocide, the US can make an emergency diplomatic appeal to Iran and allies to hold their fire.
By allowing Israel to determine US foreign policy in its most basic form - in matters of war and peace - the Biden-Harris administration has effectively handed the role of Commander in Chief to Bibi Netanyahu. This is an intolerable betrayal of the American people and it must come to an end.
We encourage all people of conscience to vehemently protest the US rush to war, call for an end to aid to Israel until it ends its genocide, and demand peacemakers rather than warmongers at all levels of government.
Unbelievable satellite imagery of one of the most intense March cyclones on record for California with the eye of the storm making landfall near San Francisco.
Amazing.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay2023! This year's theme "DigitALL" highlights technology and education for the empowerment of women & girls. Let's celebrate all women, including those at CAL FIRE, who serve on the front lines and behind the scenes. Together we are stronger!
Now is the time to prepare! An atmospheric river will impact the San Francisco Bay Area & Central Coast late this week with the heaviest rainfall currently expected to occur Thursday into Friday. As such, a Flood Watch has been issued for the region. #CAwx#BayAreaWX#CArain
Colder air tonight into early Wednesday will bring very cold conditions across the region. Temps 28-32° in the Freeze Warning, temps 33-36° in the Frost Advisory. #cawx#BayArea
#MarinSnow is falling on Mount Tamalpais right now. San Francisco’s Leigh Stewart showed up to the Bootjack lot ready to enjoy it. Send us your pics and videos. Photo by @sherlavars
A wet and rainy period may return for the West Coast later this month into early February. While it's too early to speculate on timing and amounts, now's a good time to make sure storm drains and gutters are free of debris. Stay tuned & keep up with forecast changes. #cawx
Absolutely brutal conditions at California ski resorts today with winds roaring up to 100 mph and wind chills as low as the -30s.
@MammothMountain leads the country with 509 inches of snow!

Northern California is expected to see the most widespread flooding yet from the extraordinary series of storms that has blasted the state - and perhaps some of the worst flooding in years - putting cities and counties on continued alert for disaster.

@elliemcohen1@NWSBayArea Thank you for posting! I am disheartened and frightened by the comments on Nextdoor about how this storm "wasn't a big deal" and the warnings were exaggerated. PLEASE -keep giving me (a critical thinking individual) and my community these warnings. I wish to survive.
