It’s Time for New Leadership for our CA-4 House Seat
I don't know the challenger (and recommend folks find more info on them), but I do know that when I contacted Mike Thompson to ask that the US stop supporting the State of Israel given overwhelming evidence of genocide, he responded with a boilerplate email supporting the State of Israel.

"Second Print & Zine Fest at Third Space Art Collective. thirdspacedavis.org/zinefest2026. The event will be on May 2, 12-4pm. There's a form on the page for folks that would like to sell prints/zines, due April 17. We'll also have a print show for the April Art About, and we'll have some workshops at Delta of Venus in April."
Heads up to folks in the Davis/Sacramento area:
Nugget Market is now using facial recognition surveillance in its stores according to someone who posted to a campus list I'm on.
Another reason to join Davis Food Co-op (although I hear the security presence there is also up...but at least Co-op members have the ability to vote a board out and give feedback that is listened to). #DavisCA #Privacy #Surveillance
"The annual Eugene Lunn Memorial Lecture will be delivered by Pulitzer prize-winning historian and journalist Anne Applebaum on Monday, February 9, 2026, from 4-6 pm at the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art. The event (including reception) is free and open to the public.
Her talk, “Autocracy, Inc. — or Democrats United?” is based on her most recent book, the bestselling Autocracy, Inc. (2025)."

UC Davis Aggies should join the Davis Food Co-op (they have a student membership). What gigantic grocery store would provide for the community like this?
You don't have to be a member to join this holiday meal, but if you can afford to be a member, you're supporting this and other things at your community cooperative grocery.
"We will also have a coat drive at the event. Anyone who needs a coat or two is welcome to take one.
If you are not able to attend during the event hours, we have partnered again with Davis Night Market. They will be collecting leftover food from the meal and distributing it at Central Park later that evening."

ATT has been trying HARD to mess up landlines in the Davis area to get people to voluntarily dump them because they resent meeting their CPUC requirements. I wonder if that has anything to do with this?
"Aggie Alert: Due to a technical problem, UC Davis emergency dispatchers cannot consistently hear incoming calls from landlines. Dispatchers are returning all calls, but callers are urged to use cellphones while we work to resolve the issue. More info: https://www.ucdavis.edu/warnme " #DavisCA #California
