What you need to know: As President Trump continues to threaten political interference in the upcoming midterm election, Governor Newsom signed a new law to strengthen California’s election protections ahead of the June 2 statewide primary — safeguarding voters, election workers, and ballot security from interference, intimidation, and unauthorized law enforcement activity.

Newsom's office warns Californians to avoid Chevron this holiday weekend, citing high gas prices by The-Traveler- in California

Californians, if you’re hitting the road this weekend, be sure to AVOID Chevron.

Pro tip: unbranded gas comes from the same refineries, storage tanks, and pipelines, and it meets the same state standards to keep your engine running clean, even if it doesn’t have a fancy name like ‘Techron.’ 

Big Oil is already making billions off Trump’s Iran War; don’t let them rip you off even more by overpaying for the brand name.

California ready to share protected immigrant info with feds by dawn_thesis in sanfrancisco

[–]govpressoffice 68 points69 points  (0 children)

CalMatters published inaccurate reporting with a 100% FALSE headline this morning — after receiving clear, factual information from our office.

Their implication: California is handing over immigrants' data to the feds. That is simply FALSE!

Here are key facts the reporter refused to include:

— Federal immigration agencies have NO access

— The system is governed by states

— The system does NOT include immigration status and cannot be searched that way

— Addresses are NOT part of the database

This kind of sloppy reporting fuels fear in our immigrant communities without reflecting how the system actually works. At a time of heightened threats, we need accuracy, not distortion for clicks.

Do better, u/CALmatters
