What was being "reported" in Portland earlier this year was insane. I guess I'm Antifa now.

Remember those idiotic Trump 45 covid press conferences when we were all sitting at home terrified? More of the same in Trump 47, only now it's lies about how prices are not rising, there are more / better paying jobs than ever, and starting a war to distract from it all. WORST President EVER. EVER!

This picture makes me sick to my stomach for many reasons. USA collaboration with Russia (NOT a negotiation or for peace). A Land/power/resources grab. #Ukraine not even at the table. I’m ashamed. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/w...

Looking forward to a deeper dive into Democracy Docket's legal efforts to counter the egregious and unlawful actions of the Trump administration. This President is causing tremendous damage and it's shocking that so many citizens remain unaware of the dangers.

I'm in Berlin, visiting the Museum of Terror on the site of former Gestapo HQ. The parallels between the Nazi takeover of Germany & then much more offers unmistakable parallels to what we in the US are experiencing. What is important: that we are NOT intimidated, silenced. Tipping point is now.

Gee thanks Mr. President. You've given us dangerous rhetoric, masked "police" grabbing people without regard for criminality, grocery inflation, constant lies & an unstable financial market. No wonder the broligarchs are grabbing everything they can. Life is about to get hard and THEY will be ok.

All I see is a frail, angry old man who needs a haircut. He’s been picking on Ukrainians, Hispanics & now Somalis. Sick. These groups are not our enemies - his GOP enablers are. The dumb way-large-too red hat, is it covering roots from his silly yellow dye job? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

It's appalling that a US President is proposing a "Peace Plan" to benefit Russia, which is stealing a neighboring country's territory, attacking apartment buildings and murdering families. Trump sees nothing wrong with this? www.nytimes.com/video/world/...

“If I got shot in the head at my neighborhood protest by federal agents, then nobody is safe from reprisal," Laurie Eckman said in a statement.

Remember how only just last month Trump gleefully hinted at his long relationship with El-Sisi? He just can't resist boasting about own past crimes. Trump is thrilled with having gotten away with collecting $20 Million in cash - over 200 lbs in US Hundred dollar bills. Bill Barr protected Trump.

You HAVE to read this book! Jessie Liu, then US Attorney close to the case of Trump's receipt of $10M from Egypt, was moved out of her job by Bill Barr. Not allowed to transition in a way to preserve and pursue their sensitive work. Her successor had one question "Who else knows about this case?"

Yesterday ICE arrested a 17 year old student here in Oregon. They broke his father’s car window to pull him out. When told that Christian Jimenez is a US born citizen, the reply: “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Omitted from the Mueller Report was a telling detail: when the multimillion -dollar Russian troll farm learned that their efforts to help Trump win the 2016 election were successful, they popped champagne and declared "We made America Great." Sickening details, also about $10M Egyptian illegal cash.

Surreal and distressing that there is a "US-Russia" plan for Ukraine, siding against our European allies and what is obviously just and right. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/w...

I lucked out last night and was able to purchase the only remaining copy of "Injustice" by @carolleonnig.bsky.social & @byaaroncdavis.bsky.social at Powell's Bookstore last night.

Contact your Senators & Representatives to make sure they work to INSURE that Epstein files are genuinely INTACT when released to the public. Don’t fall for the trickery of the Trump administration @repdexteror.bsky.social @repbonamici.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

What do we do? The normal thing would be to talk to people who are on the “other side.”But I can no longer be friends with anyone who thinks these ICE actions are ok. It’s evil. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/o...

We were being warned about the dangers of Christian "Conservatism" back in the 1980's the GOP has been diabolically ingenious about exploiting, thereby enabling fringe ideology that should have nothing to do with governance.

This year I've increasingly noticed NYTimes articles not enabling reader comments. Subtle censorship is still censorship. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

Orvis attributes the store closures and job losses to rising prices as a result of US tariffs. Our President thinks that tariffs are good for business. He may be sucessful at grifting, but he is a failure at business. www.oregonlive.com/retail/2025/...

My brother wanted to find official data about his property after a big forest fire. This is what he found on the Forest Service / US Dept of Agriculture website instead. Idiots in the White House shooting themselves in the foot.

Here’s a site taking action by publishing ICE identities. Friends and neighbors know that they are bad actors and identify them. Can you help? Here’s the Oregon list - it needs to grow! icelist.is/ice/category...

And WHICH companies benefit the most from #ICE detentions? Trump donors, no surprise.

Was near this Portland intersection yesterday. What was there? A few wet pedestrians without umbrellas. @timothysnyder.bsky.social writes that our city is accused by Trump as a threat, a reason for attack, as a site of “war.” He’s been learning from Putin. snyder.substack.com/p/how-war-be...

How is this okay anywhere, for taking a picture? It’s not. ICE agents broke the car’s passenger side window, opened the door and got Berenice Garcia-Hernandez out of the car. How can any Trump voter think this administration is doing the right thing? www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Just got a survey invitation from @washingtonpost.com I'm done with the sycophantic support of a criminal government, loss of principled journalists, both-siding, and general untrustworthiness. I'm sad about this - was formerly a favorite newspaper.

What good does it do if cities and states adhere to our legal process, pursue and win court orders if the Feds ignore the order?!? www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1...

Seriously, how can anyone remain a subscriber of the Washington Post? Its owner is shamelessly aiding and abetting this dictator wannabe. Opinions from the WaPo editorial board is now only propaganda.

Portland ICE protester on horseback, expressing concern about ILLEGAL arrests of citizens and legal residents. Says his uncle, a US Citizen, was arrested. Will they pepper spray his horse? Because Federal Agents ARE deploying chemical agents, sometimes with zero provocation. youtu.be/g8cAJc_XyFk

Proud of Portland

Thank you @wyden.senate.gov I'd also like to see reporting on Trump's $10M campaign cash infusion from Egypt. Money he retrieved from the campaign, because he called it a "loan." This is why he was praising the Egyptian President only last week. Not only did they help him win, but he pocketed the $

Requesting public records is called "improper intrusion" by the White House. This is straight out of the narcissistic playbook! It's known as "Projection" when they accuse you of exactly what they are already doing. @maxbernstein.bsky.social

My Portland Halloween decorations

It's almost like they're trying to tell us something... ht: @magacultslayer.bsky.social

I was genuinely horrified to find www.WH.gov linked to our www.whitehouse.gov site, so I DM’d them:

I'll be there!

Our "war-ravaged Portland" airport is among the most beautiful in the world. Helsinki's airport is pretty gorgeous too.https://youtu.be/6tTvID8Q1nY?si=BroLnlq2SNZ1tYb1

The back and forth concerning troop deployment into peaceful Portland... makes me feel angry & sick. But not as miserable as those grabbed off the street by masked forces in unmarked vehicles - their families must be so worried for them.

Thanks a lot to our blowhard lying President who is rejoicing about this Federal Government shutdown. Travelers are wondering how airport security might be affected, but there is no way to know until we get there. I recognize it's puny concern, given the craven actions of GOP.

Stay strong Ukraine.

The only law breaking I've seen today in NW Portland has been shoppers bringing their dogs into the grocery store. This guy wants to be an outlaw too.

Thank you @tobiasread.bsky.social for protecting Oregon voter data. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

I’ve found a replacement engine case for my 1967 Beetle, which was manufactured in July 1966. A beautiful H00 serial# case to boot! Next: get it machined for a 1776 rebuild. Possibly shipped off ton California for rebalancing. I’m pretty excited to begin working on this!

A waste of time, but I wrote to The White House today: I want the updated COVID vaccine. Cannot believe that the guy who helped speed up vaccine development in 2020 hired the guy who will kill access to life-saving vaccines. So many things to be alarmed about. We cannot even list them all. #vaccines

#Ukraine thinking of you today, and every day.
