Good for our Maine governor, Janet Mills, for standing up to him. But count me among the state's progressives who think she is far too conservative regarding guns. I like Shenna Bellows, the current Secretary of State and a recently announced candidate for governor next year, a lot better. #Politics #Democrats #Democracy #Maine #Guns #US #USpol https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/us/janet-mills-donald-trump-maine.html?unlocked_article_code=1.-04.cyfP.6gORzp8pK6kh&smid=url-share

The Trump Admin is moving full speed ahead to find solutions to problems that don't exist.

1. #AntiChristian bias. There are #Christian churches all over this nation. But you can't create a #Theocracy without making laws that will give certain Christians extra rights.

2. #Guns #2Amendment. There just are enough ways in the US to get our hands on guns to slaughter children.

California folks:

Your Assemblymember is going to be voting on AB 1127 to ban the sale of dangerous convertible pistols that can be turned into DIY machine guns.

Glock, the multibillion dollar gun manufacturer, refuses to design their firearms so that a person can't turn them into DIY machine guns.
Instead, the company’s pistols can be converted into machine guns with just one simple step—adding a tiny piece of plastic called a Glock switch.

Give your Assemblymember a call.
Tell them to vote YES on AB 1127.

“Police have shot a man dead outside a railway station after reports he was carrying a firearm. There is not believed to be any further risk to the public at this time." On the other hand gung ho police with guns might indeed be a further risk to the public. #Police #Guns

"I wish white Christian Conservatives had the same passion for migrant children, school shooting victims, sick toddlers, young black men, Muslim families, LGBTQ teens, the environment, and women's autonomy over their bodies that they claim to have for embryos."
