The 1997 Flores settlement says children can only be in immigration detention for 20 days. A new legal filing shows that kids at CoreCivic's detention facility in Dilley, TX have been there as long as 323 days, & includes firsthand accounts of the abuse guards are inflicting on children.

Very important piece by Cerin Lindgrensavage and @davidasuper.bsky.social. This behavior by the administration is not only illegal, it is anti-constitutional. thehill.com/opinion/cong...

Portland City Councilor @councilormorillo.bsky.social is extremely good at her job. She’s finding agreement in a strongly divided council and getting demonstrable results for Portlanders. We are so lucky to have to have her!

We need a range of solutions to address car dependency and create safer streets. It's a toolkit that involves: Redesigning roads to slow speeds and impose consequences for dangerous driving, improved infrastructure, expanded public transit, better driver education, and enforcement.

If I am grievously injured or killed on my bike, please politicize my death. No ghost bike— street design and policy changes that actually keep cyclists safe

Senator Ron Wyden has always been one of the Senate's fiercest defenders of privacy & civil liberties. So when he says Congress shouldn't be expanding surveillance partnerships with Netanyahu's government... I pay attention.

Everyone involved who decided to do this ought to be prosecuted for misuse of public funds. That goes for our entire government and the hundreds of thousands of crimes committed so far

Serial killers.

Crazy idea: POTUS shouldn’t be able to make billions of real US dollars via crypto while Prez

Ossoff: "The abuses of federal power, the misconduct is unprecedented. That's why Donald Trump so deeply fears his impending losses in these midterms, because he recognizes that when there's a change in the balance of power, there will be real accountability imposed"

The news should be covering ICE like a serial killer on the loose

once again saying: Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

vote no this is so irresponsible

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

100 years ago Oregon Electric ran 33 trains a day between Portland and Salem

💯💯💯 I would personally LOVE to own a home on a dedicated bikeway. I’ll be there are tons of Portlanders who agree with me. The 7th Ave “greenway” feels like a fucked up version of Mario Kart, not a safe, welcoming, bike-and-ped-first street

continue to think the easiest short term thing we can do to finish strong is to try to offer more gap financing for stalled apartment developments. prosper had the right idea here and we should do more of it prosperportland.us/our-work/len...

You could get mad about dead senator discourse *or* you could enjoy this video of sea lions who have retaken an island with a decommissioned lighthouse off the coast of Oregon and now use the staircase as a giant slide.

In case you missed the hearing today: The government argued that because the Supreme Court eliminated the right to an abortion under Dobbs, that also means the government is free to tear gas you in your home— consequences be damned. This federal govt is actively hostile to your health & safety

really think that if democrats hold any chamber of congress next year that a condition of passing a budget is the removal of russ vought, who has a genuinely tyrannical vision of presidential power and is a focal point of the lawlessness of the trump administration

Today the 9th Circuit will consider if the government has a right to deploy tear gas at innocent people in their homes. I would argue the government does not, and must not, have this right. Read more from OPB: opb.org/article/2026...

“The right to not have the government repeatedly inject poison gas into one’s home is implicit in the concept of ordered liberty." www.opb.org/article/2026...

pham’s law: for every problem in oregon there is a khanh pham bill that would have fixed it

ICE shot and killed a man in Houston with no criminal record who was not even their target. They pushed him off the road. And now he is gone forever. ICE is a domestic terrorist organization. We need to abolish ICE now and stop Trump’s murderous thugs.

No on 1 This is why

with a few changes to local building codes and state directives on local zoning, oregon could begin to build hundreds of these beautiful, affordable, accessible multifamily homes around every major transit station in the greater portland region. all eyes on the 2027 legislative session

More homes, more neighbors, more welcome! @portlandneighborswelcome.org chatting housing bonus alignment tonight 🏘️🏡🏬

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

See you tonight!

Every cyclist death is heartbreaking, but it hits even harder when it's an advocate like this. It's infuriating and saddening. These deaths, especially on roads that are known to be dangerous, are simply policy choices.

Pretty great write up. I love the Blazers. That doesn't mean our state should get ripped off in this deal.

Me Too did not go far enough.

Excited to see City Council finally let this plan to build a new, housing-rich, transit-rich Lloyd District move forward today. Let’s tear down these empty parking lots and build housing and public parks!!! 🏗️🏡🏘️🌱

The only question in front of City Council today is “was the Design Commission correct that the Lloyd Center master plan meets the applicable design guidelines?” I’ll be disappointed if the council doesn’t vote 11-0 that it was. Every other talking point is distraction.

Huuuuge hell yeah: Hood River’s “new e-bike library and rebate program grants participants a free, two-week test drive for daily transit, pre-curated to match their lifestyle.” Once the trial is up riders can purchase the model they borrowed w a $500-$2000 discount 🚲✨💨

Biked to a lunch meeting today that just tipped me over 24 hours of riding time in 2026 🎉 My ebike has helped me avoid 160 miles of car trips so far this year, and that’s even with being out of the game for six weeks with a broken arm. Can’t wait to update these stats later this year! ✨🚲 🚲 🚲✨

Taking away power from the people we elected, and giving to an unelected board, is pretty bad actually

At its heart, this is a story about sprawl and the lack of a public square in many cities and towns. Places with parks, plazas, and places people can access for free often have outdoor concerts, movie screenings, or just ways people can socialize and have fun without having to pay for it.

We recently reached a $7 million settlement with a property management company for driving up rent prices, which impacted over 1,600 properties across Oregon. When landlords keep prices artificially high for working families, we’ll use every legal tool to hold them accountable.

I was rooting for this guy from day 1, not least of all bc running a brewery is tough as hell and Maine Beer Company makes phenomenal beer
