Most of the COUNTIES with the highest violent crime rates are not major metropolitan areas. We seldom see this data bc most published lists only show CITIES, and exclude anything <100,000 pop. This skews public perception and feeds the false narrative that cities are inherently more crime-ridden.

Like Portland, Bluesky is a "war ravaged" wasteland, filled with antifa terrorists.

Impact of Community Masking Ecological studies consistently show that community-wide mask mandates were associated with a significant reduction in the growth rate of new SARS-CoV-2 cases. gemini.google.com/share/773a86...

The 🦆ing pussies running around like it's a war zone to pull some poor Latino dude on his way to work out of his car while sitting at a stoplight. My left tit is harder than this 💩. This is high schooler picking on 8 year olds levels of weak and pathetic.

This is the second shooting in less than 24 hours. The other one took place in North Carolina. Republicans only care to politicize the left, however, we have NO common sense gun control. Democrats have spoken about this for years and Republicans refuse to do anything about it. Never normalize this!😢

not now responsibility, the people in my phone need me

Articles of impeachment, please.

#Pinks #ProudBlue Every article I can find says trump will lay off more workers if the government shuts down. This is a lie. Trump is going to lay off 300,000 more federal workers whether there is a shut down or not. It’s already planned out in Project 25. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Think it’s very important we situate their claims to desire a “post-racial” nation within their demands to eliminate any policy which would actually address the material effects of racism. They’re wanted a code of silence around systemic racism, because Obama won an election.

I wonder how many white people said "and I'd better not ever hear another word about racism ever again!" when they heard that Obama won. These are some damn hard headed folks.

We’re “post racial” as long as Black people do worse than us is gonna be the bargain they offer And I’m disgusted by how many people are setting up to accept it

Amid an ongoing wave of conspiracy theories and bogus claims about Jan 6, I’ll note this from our reporting: Rioters made all kinds of claims and defenses in court … and jurors convicted 100% of the defendants who went to trial 100%

2020: Biden, 51.3% popular vote, 306 EV; Trump, 46.8%, 232 EV 2024: Trump, 49.7% popular vote, 312 EV; Harris, 48.2%, 226 EV

Look everyone. It is election season NOW. If you live in NC, SC. VA, CA, CO, GA, NJ, NM, NY, RI, TX, WY, Il, FL, KS...and soooo many more states then you can be participating in early voting, requesting your mail in ballot, or checking your registration for Nov 4. Right now.

Another example of Ezra Klein believing and repeating complete nonsense because he consumes huge amounts of right-wing propaganda

The correct answer is no, it violates the posse comitatus act.

True story - I was in Portland from August 2020 to Jan 2020 less than a mile from the protests and there was no anarchy. I saw a broken window once. I saw like 8 cop cars and over a dozen cops once break up an attempted protest of about 10 people across the road from Skidmore fountain. That's it.

Portland ICE facility last night.

“At one point the narrator compares critics of Israel to former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke.”

yeah they’re not gonna seat anybody after the midterms without extreme public outcry and we should be prepared to supply it

Non-violence is the morally superior choice both because it values human life AND because it works. This video series is excellent watching for anyone who needs a primer on non-violence. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Hey Portland - here's what me and some friends did the last time the feds were sent in. @wyden.senate.gov do you remember this? This is how we win - by serving each other. It seemed to help last time. Go down to Skidmore fountain and ask for Marty - he can tell you. youtu.be/DVHtqGX6Qmc?...

Well, if we’re going to prosecute people for lying to Congress…

👍🏼👍🏼

I already feel it with the tariffs…

Once again, the moderate position is for ICE to be abolished and Border Patrol to be gutted, and massive civil rights prosecutions leading to prison time. Anybody running on anything less is kicking the can down the road.

Reminder that when Border Patrol agents were caught posting sexually explicit and racist comments on Facebook, they were allowed to keep their jobs cnbc.com/2021/10/25/b...

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

The South Korean Ministry of Defense has awarded medals of merit to 11 officers for disobeying direct orders of superiors during the martial law fiasco, orders that they deemed to be contrary to the constitution and endangerment to democracy. www.chosun.com/english/nati...

"Republican-controlled states have higher murder rates" Crimes per 1M trips * NYC: 1.3 * Dallas: 38.0 "Texans 17% more likely to be murdered than Californians" "being within California’s borders 40% less gun violence" "Liberal policies, like California’s, keep blue-state residents living longer"

Happening now in war ravaged Portland: the city's Parks and Recreation Department (the most subversive of all government entities, is giving away trees.

While Stephen Miller claims that Democrats calling him a fascist constitutes incitement, there are hundreds of examples of Miller publicly calling Democrats fascists.

Re: the male loneliness epidemic, there is *still* not enough emphasis on how many heterosexual girls and women are staying single out of self-preservation, because the sexual norms that many heterosexual boys and men have adopted are exceptionally dangerous.

Multiple organizers I trust who have been a regular presence at Broadview are advising folks not to protest there tonight. For a number of reasons, they are worried that fatal force could be used against protesters tonight. They are calling for folks to regroup and return Friday morning.

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

they are who we thought they were

Why the sudden urgency behind the WH power grab & flex? Could it be because every admin policy initiative is failing and unpopular? Or because bad as things are now, they're about to turn much worse for most Americans & Team MAGA wants to intimidate them into not complaining?

These people have been trying to trigger a race war for decades. I think it actually says very good things about Americans - particularly African Americans - that they're having to go to these lengths to get it to pop off. I just hope it doesn't devolve into them hunting down innocent people.

When I say that we have a whole lotta people who want credit for being the kind of person who never put in the work to be that kind of person, this is what I'm talking about. "We don't need to make progress - we just need to tell everyone how much progress we've made!" These people have brain damage

Lying to Congress? You mean like saying you won't make it harder for Americans to get vaccines if appointed United States Secretary of Health and Human Services? Or you won't overturn Roe v. Wade if appointed to the Supreme Court? That kind of lying?

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Has anyone collected the vile statements congressional Republicans have made calling for the murder, assault, deportation and/or imprisonment of their colleagues? Seems like there’s a lot of this coming straight from the GOP but the nation is more focused on ordinary liberals on social media.

When I was near downtown Portland in the fall of 2020, a huge number of police and squad cars rolled up across a highway from us. There were 8 cops cars, each with 2 cops there to chase away a group of maybe 12 protesters. It was ridiculous. I don't think Americans have understood how unfree we are

“A Portland Police Bureau assistant chief said in court recently that federal police were “instigating” some of the clashes between officers and protesters outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in South Portland.” www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Snipers pointing at Federal officials? Not worth military action. People peacefully standing against government kidnappings and extraordinary rendition of legal Americans? Kill them all.

What is "full force." Is "full force" shooting Americans? Is full force using Abrahms main battle tanks? Is "full force" carpet bombing protests? Is "full force" nuking the city? Explain to me what "full force" means.

“Moderation is censorship” was 2018-2023 “Media literacy is censorship” was 2024 “Transparency is censorship” is 2025+ “Curation is censorship” is 2026 Frame Game (Mike Benz) and the other far-right propagandists are already laying the groundwork. That’s why they’re going after the DSA now too. 🧵
