California is ready to fight.
I just called an emergency special session to help bolster our legal resources and protect our state against any unlawful actions by the incoming Trump Administration.
Whether it be our fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, or climate action -- we refuse to turn back the clock and allow our values and laws to be attacked.

"Separation of children from their parents is a profoundly traumatizing event. Systematic separation of children from their parents, 'it wasn't happening.' But it was happening."
SEPARATED, @errolmorris' film about Trump's family separation policy, is in theaters now.
Jimmy Kimmel tears up while talking about Donald Trump’s victory:
“It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hard working immigrants who make this country great, for health care, for our climate, for science, for journalism, for justice, for free speech”
American voters fucked around — and now they're about to find out. As Steve Bannon admitted post election, Trump will implement the fascist manifesto Project 2025. The U.S. is about to become as cruel, barbaric, medieval and sadistic as any authortarian country in the world. 🥺👇
“Every American knew, or should have known. The man elected president last night is a depraved and brazen pathological liar, a shameless con man, a sociopathic criminal, a man who has no moral or social conscience, empathy, or remorse. He has no respect for the Constitution and laws he will swear to uphold, and on top of all that, he exhibits emotional and cognitive deficiencies that seem to be intensifying, and that will only make his turpitude worse. He represents everything we should aspire not to be, and everything we should teach our children not to emulate. The only hope is that he’s utterly incompetent, and even that is a double-edged sword, because his incompetence often can do as much as harm as his malevolence. His government will be filled with corrupt grifters, spiteful maniacs, and morally bankrupt sycophants, who will follow in his example and carry his directives out, because that’s who they are and want to be.”
As Donald Trump readies to return to the Oval Office, U.S. retailers that depend on foreign suppliers are prepared to pass along the cost of his proposed import tariffs to consumers, potentially leading to higher prices for a range of products. https://t.co/dyB72RLgEm

He's got the senate, he's got the house, he's got the Supreme Court, and he's got the Presidency.
He can do what he wants now. There will be no checks and balances.
The dictatorship is here.
Some will applaud it, but even they will suffer under it too.
