The top #Democrat on the #HouseOversightCommittee launched an investigation into Donald Trump Jr.’s relationship with a Russian #oligarch who paid for much of Trump Jr.’s wedding earlier this year.Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., sent two letters on Monday to the #WhiteHouse and Trump Jr. requesting records related to Trump Jr.’s financial relationship with the oligarch, #UmarKremlev.

Whistleblower: Before ( 2023 ) & After ( 2026 )
==========================I used to laugh at the people who said, "Both sides are the same."
In 2023, I was a #programmer with #federal #clearance, working for the US Department of #Veterans Affairs, through #AccentureFederalServices , through a contractor ( #GrayDigital ), when I called out #corruption & became a government #whistleblower
I have been #homeless since 2023, hounded by the law, a dozen rides in the back of cop cars, usually handcuffed. Kicked out of hospitals, banks, libraries, stores, & buses. 5 arrests ( 4 under #Biden, 1 under #Trump ), faced #police brutality, spent 6 nights in jail. The last arrest was extrajudicial, and I was not even brought before a judge after spending a night in jail, just told to go away.
I slept outdoors in winters without warm clothes, in muddy orchards, in rain, on cold concrete city pavements, in sweltering heat. I was denied public defense in #courts, though I told judges I was homeless and food insecure. I fought in court, representing myself, while homeless. All charges were dropped. It was whistleblower intimidation. I had committed no crimes. I was assaulted in the streets by the security guard of a #Catholic charity. I have eaten out of garbage cans, & several times, gone hungry for 2-3 days at a time.
In December 2025, I moved to #Tokyo to avoid persecution, though it followed me here. I'm homeless and hungry here as well, probably because the #Japanese government is reluctant to grant me #political #asylum.
Every #Refugee Assistance Organization I contacted in Tokyo has turned me away.

Our shitstain of a #mayor tried to stop a #voter-approved project on a major pair of one-way streets because it took them from four lanes to three. That space was reallocated to trees on both sides, better #busStops, and a #bikeLane that was separated from traffic.
Before he was mayor, he represented me in #state #government. He ran as a #Democrat — and he's sooo awful that the local #Dems censured him. I screened him for that race, and our organization endorsed a real Democrat.

RE: https://xoxo.zone/@davidcelis/117054792127968357
I seriously suspect certain #Democrats could gain a lot of support from demographics that have a disproportionate share of otherwise Republican-voting or non-voting people by committing to using all legal and budgetary tools of state power to restore the supply and reduce the price of PC and laptop DRAM (and SSDs too) for individuals and for organizations other than the hyper-scalers.
Potential policy actions include using (perhaps after amending) the CHIPS and Science Act, using the Defence Production Act, starting and funding FTC and antitrust investigations, and even creating a state corporation to build a chip fab specifically for RAM and SSDs in standard PC and laptop forms.
I could see Rep. #AOC and Sen. Elizabeth Warren successfully using this to direct attention and votes away from Republicans, even well outside #NY14 and #MA (respectively). A couple others who would be credible to advocate the federal government intervene to redirect semiconductor supply away from enterprise AI (HBM) and back toward general computing (DRAM) could include Joyner Kiros (already opposed to AI data center construction), and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed (already opposed by the entire oligarchy; he could address semiconductor hoarding both as part of his populist economic messaging and as part of the cost, through hospital hardware prices, of healthcare).
Combining and connecting RAM & SSDs with related issues of #rightToRepair, #rightToOwn, #privacy, land, water, electricity, pollution, noise, underhanded municipal interference, creative and intellectual labor theft, and opposition to the AI, cryptocurrency (in fewer places), and #surveillance (in more places) industries, several Democratic candidates could make headway with a demographic of voters who usually lean highly libertarian or politically disaffected—voters who heavily favored Republicans in 2024 due to Elon Musk’s aggressive anti-establishment electioneering (which they now realize was disingenuous). Right now, most of that base is feeling betrayed and irate, as the hyper-scalers are interfering with their passions, their property, their jobs, and their businesses.
Places which could be swung with such an expanded hardware-focused platform, where parts availability and affordability is addressed as part of R2R, may include #TX10 (home to a lot of tech manufacturing and a large population of hardware engineers and technicians who despise corporate anti-repair, including #LouisRossmann himself), and perhaps #NC13 (where a candidate would need to focus specifically on hardware price-gouging and the right to repair as matters of autonomy, while avoiding anything too "over-regulation" sounding).
#OR05 (a right-to-repair battleground with many independent repair professionals and DIY enthusiasts who view anti-repair as an assault on private property) already has a Democrat, but perhaps Rep. Bynum could secure support of a demographic of voters who might otherwise lean R by addressing this issue. Similarly, #NC02 (home of #GamersNexus) currently has a #Democrat, but perhaps Rep. Ross could meet with Steve Burke (whom I'm guessing is a constituent of hers) on GN and discuss this.
And then there's the "AI" industry and data center backlash, where, depending on riding, voters could be swayed with varying emphases. Land, water, and drought issues may reach voters in #TX21 and #AZ01; noise pollution and underhanded municipal interference in #VA10 and #GA06; creative and intellectual labor theft in #CA30 and #NY10.
To gain effective rhetoric, candidates and their staff could study a bunch of recent GamersNexus reporting, especially the #GNCA videos, and read the popular comments on those videos from fans. (I'd suggest @davidgerard as a source, but I'm guessing he's from the UK. AFAIK, Steve Burke is American. I'd volunteer if the #NDP or #GreenParty wanted to run on this issue. @avilewis?)
For examples of this messaging in practice, already credible voices for a #consumerRights focus include Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (a R2R champion in #WA03 who could appeal to libertarians, PC builders, and rural tech-hobbyists who voted Republican in 2024 but despise corporate infringement on private property), and Sen. Ron Wyden (a long-standing advocate for consumer privacy and digital rights in #OR — a state with a lot of tech professionals and digital sovereignty advocates).

The Senator Who Used to Be Cory Booker
We taught at Rutgers-Newark in the same years, before he was mayor, before the Senate, before the rebranding. We shared a building lobby on University Avenue. I never shook his hand. I did not need to. Everyone on that campus knew Cory. He pulled the air toward him when he walked through a door, a Rhodes Scholar, a Yale-trained lawyer who had chosen Newark when he could have chosen Manhattan or Washington, a young man who spoke about education the way ministers speak about scripture. Students mattered to him. He believed a city scarred by Sharpe James and three decades of municipal corruption could be reformed from inside its worst housing project, into which he had moved on purpose. I watched that man hold a room without effort. He had a builder's mind. He had, in the older sense of the word, character. […]https://bolesblogs.com/2026/05/21/the-senator-who-used-to-be-cory-booker/

The top 7 contenders for #CaliforniaGovernor will debate at 6PM PT (9PM ET) on CNN.
The #California “jungle primary” system, could result in no #Democrat on the ballot in November.
All candidates run on one ballot in June, with the top 2 advancing — regardless of party.
A crowded Democratic field [dummies] risks splitting the vote & opening the door for 2 #Republicans to finish as the top 2, shutting #Democrats out of November’s general #election in a decidedly #BlueState.

The #Trump admin has withdrawn all #federalized #NationalGuard #troops from US cities, after its repeated attempts to surge forces into #Democrat-run #states encountered #judicial roadblocks.
The pullout was quietly finalized late last month, occurring with no public acknowledgment from the #WhiteHouse or the #Pentagon. -
Trump’s push to deploy #troops in #Democrat cities has been met with legal challenges at nearly every turn.
#SCOTUS in December refused to allow the #Trump admin to deploy #NationalGuard troops in the #Chicago area as part of its crackdown on “#immigration”. The order was not a final ruling but was a significant & rare setback by the high court for trump’s efforts.
In #DC, district AG Brian Schwalb sued to halt the deployments of >2k guardsmen.

So I was going to say that the one thing I agree with Speaker #MikeJohnson about was that what happened wasn't unexpected, that #Democrats won in "blue" States last night, but I just looked something up...
#Virginia isn't a blue state. It's #Governor #elections seem to follow a trend for the past couple cycles of them voting for the party that will win the next Presidential election.
And #AbigailSpanberger didn't just win, she won by a double digit margin.
So I'm going to say what I said before, that we shouldn't assume this is going to be the norm, and we still need to get out and fight, especially since we are going to need Democrats to get well over 50% in some of these elections in order to overcome anti-democracy efforts...
But that double-digit margin? That's Hope right there. That's telling us that we are definitely capable of doing this: our work will pay dividends.
And that #Mamdani win? That's telling us we can beat the corrupt #Democrat establishment that got us into this mess.
