Would be nice to send this article to all the generals and admirals gathering at Quantico next week to hear from Pete Hegseth….

Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.

What they want is Dems to join them in dabbling their fingers in the blood. There are absolutely no circumstances under which anybody loyal to the Constitution should vote to fund a government controlled by Donald Trump. They are covering their own asses by demanding that line not be clearly drawn.

Pick a city in Mike Johnson's district. Use labels to print a message about the Epstein Files on postcards (example: TELL SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON TO STOP BLOCKING THE RELEASE OF THE EPSTEIN FILES), and send it to a couple dozen business or home addresses. Include Johnson's local office phone number.

All quiet in my SE PDX neighborhood. Here's a look at what's going on this weekend around our "war-ravaged" town:

The War Torn Streets of Portland Oregon. The POTUS has declared War on over 50% of this country. We Are All Portland. Time is up Fuck This Nightmare

Some critical context about Trump's troops to "war-ravaged Portland" that most folks don't know: Any conflicts there between protesters and ICE agents are happening because ICE agents ARE PROVOKING THEM (From that "radical left-wing group," the Portland Police Department) bsky.app/profile/mock...

Troops to Portland? Illegal and absurd. But the absurdity is the point. Trump policy is to ignore real threats to US security coming from abroad and use the armed forces to pursue imaginary threats from within, thereby creating an atmosphere suitable for personal rule. (1/2)

🚨Empty Seats for Netanyahu Most of the UN walked out as Netanyahu vowed to “finish the job” in Gaza. The world’s patience with war crimes is gone. Diplomatic isolation looks a lot like an empty hall.

😕🇺🇸

I’ll be in Portland today watching a soccer match, eating dinner outside (it’s a beautiful fall day here), maybe going to a bookstore because life in Portland is totally normal. But in case I’m met with the “full force” of the US military during my regular rounds, it was nice knowing you all.

War ravaged Portland.

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

We only need to get independents to swing the outcome of the midterms and 2028. We no longer need to care what republicans think they are too small to win an election alone.

Weird how this comes on the same day new Epstein evidence is released by House Oversight.

🚨🚨 NEW DOCUMENTS FROM EPSTEIN'S ESTATE DETAILING HIS DAILY SCHEDULE: They show meetings with Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, and a potential visit to Epstein’s Island for Elon Musk. Prince Andrew is listed as a passenger on Epstein’s jet. DOJ must release the Epstein files NOW.

WTF 🤬

At the UN, Colombian President Gustavo Petro compared Donald Trump to Hitler & urged criminal charges over U.S. missile strikes that killed 17 people near Venezuela. He accused Trump of “murder” for targeting unarmed migrant boats instead of using lawful maritime arrests.

😕 This is the “Trump Health Care Tax” @mcuban.bsky.social told Kanew Dems need to talk about more directly

A government that is closed for business is not available for a floor vote to release documents relating to the sexual abuse of children involving the nation's powerful people. These shitheels will close the doors on the United States and go home rather than spill out the dirt.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

This isn’t planning. It’s pressure. You don’t summon every general in the U.S. military without a damn good reason. Here are the three scenarios that fit.🔥👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Every time someone says 'left‑wing terrorism is the big threat,' this analysis pulls back the curtain on how 75 years' worth of data show that the real terrorist threat comes straight from the right: https://americanmanifesto.news/warning-we-will-be-decimated-if-we-stays-quiet

Don’t come to America ice is domestic terrorism bsky.app/profile/till...

WATCH: “I want the American people to know that when you stand up to a bully, you win. Do not back down. Do not bend. You allow them to go and wage their threats. If everybody starts to bend, for sure, what is left of our democracy will be gone,” says Rep. Jasmine Crockett.

If you voted for him, you've done this.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

This is what Ice is doing in front of the cameras, imagine what they’re doing when no one is filming

ICE Agent Drops Gun and Levels it At Shocked Rush-Hour Crowd TRIGGERED The man who captured the video said the scene unfolded in the midst of rush-hour traffic just outside Washington, D.C. www.thedailybeast.com/ice-arrest-g...

Listen up folks.

So Trump is just going to put farmers out of business and give them corporate welfare? While sending $20 billion to Argentina? This is the Golden Age?

The white supremacist conceit that everyone in antiquity was living under some kind of global jim crow segregation is just complete bullshit news.harvard.edu/gazette/stor...

This is hilarious! 😅🤣 Jimmy Kimmel and Robert de Niro on Trump's new censorship regime! 💥 It's a must watch! [SOUND ON 🔊]

Stanley Cup finals: 2.5M NCAA Men’s Final Four: 15M World Series: 15.8M NBA finals: 16.4M Oscars: 19.7M Jimmy Kimmel: 26M

Murphy: "The point is to get a few of Trump's political adversaries in jail, but the real point is a tried & true tactic of despots all over the world, which is to just harass & intimidate their political opposition so that protesters don't show up, candidates don't run. That's how democracies die."

WATCH: “Let’s be honest - they’re not showing up on HBCU campuses to debate. They’re showing up to agitate our children and incite a response from us.” Reactions to the Tennessee State agitators who showed up uninvited— who now claim they didn’t know it was an HBCU 🤔🙃

Wake up, America, or I fear we may not have elections in 2028.

Thanks, Boss: “We’re desperately in need of an effective alternative party, or for the Democratic Party to find someone who can speak to the majority of the nation. There is a problem with the language that they’re using and the way they’re trying to reach people.”

I try to avoid conspiracies, too, but this story does seem sus.

“.. Tesla’s European Union sales in August decreased by 37% year over year ..” @barrons.com $TSLA www.barrons.com/articles/tes...

Sinclair Broadcasting has long used their affiliates to post propaganda. Their stance on not airing Kimmel is nothing new. Most of us have probably forgot this gem from nearly a decade ago. m.youtube.com/watch?v=hWLj...

Yes, Mr President, we are still talking about the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Bernie is right again. The scale of wealth for the 1% is unimaginable as the essentials of life (healthcare, affordable housing, groceries!?) become unattainable for the rest of us. Trickle down my ass. #TaxTheRich #PayALivingWage www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8SGLTac/

Very harrowing article by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor 'Bannon advances a vision of the United States as a bunker in its own right, one in which Ice agents stalk the streets, workplaces and campuses, disappearing those deemed enemies of US policy and interests.' www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Jackbooted government thugs declaring in advance that they will break the laws of a sovereign state. thehill.com/national-sec...

This really pisses me off, bunch of A$$e$
