It's been an eventful week! We've had launched submarines (no, not that kind; the footlong kind with rosemary parm bread) and Governor Newsom emerging as our savior.
Yes, we got both kinds of heroes.

The Boost We Need
I don't know about you, but I've been living for California Gov. Gavin Newsom's trolling.
Finally! A leader who can push back in the exact way that is needed. The cutting humor, the satire, the trolling, the responses from the trolling! And the memes! Oh my! We need a good laugh and a big boost of "Yes We Can!"
The governor is giving it.
These tweets have been coming fast and hard from Newsom's socials, thanks to Camille Zapata and her team at the governor's press office.
Not only his trolling, but his very real ballot measure to ask voters' permission to redraw California's Congressional districts before they are due. Fighting back. It's what he does.
And other baiting...

MAGAts are flipping out over the spoofs. They are at the same time crying, "It's so disrespectful! This is awful!" and "He's copying Dear Leader!"
They forgot the number one rule: Do not feed the trolls.
And then there's the memes....
Oh my lordt. The "Am I doing it right, MAGA?" trend is sending me!

There's more, compiled by this brilliant creator. Follow her on Instagram!
Here's a piece from Politico about the trend.
And then there was the guy in Washington, D.C. who threw a Subway sandwich at an ICE officer and ran off in his pink button-up and khaki shorts.
The officers wayyyyy overreacted and made a spectacle of this poor man. He was chased down and arrested, charged with a felony. He was a DOJ employee; he was fired.
Here's the original video:
Jeanine Pino in her best TV voice said "We are going to back the police to the hilt." It makes me so sick when they say that, after this scene:
Hey fascists! We will never forget January 6.
On the other hand, maybe they will be able to indict a ham sandwich!
