things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

The 1988 murder of Ethiopian immigrant Mulugeta Seraw by neo-Nazi skinheads shocked Portland, but white supremacist violence had been roiling the city’s counterculture for years before the killing.

the Black Panthers were right

2788 families in oregon were served eviction notices in january; a record high, nearly twice pre-pandemic levels. if you're an oregonian looking for a thirty-second activity to shake your fist and demand policymakers stick up for tenants in these wretched times, here's a really easy action alert:

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

Sight in San Francisco (from a friend)

Trump just wants to be racist, eat fillet o' fish, and pick out the ugliest possible marble for his ballroom while Miller is trying to get his school shooter manifesto put into the CFR and Rubio is trying to get Trump to sign an EO that just says "invade cuba"

Organizing creates the conditions under which electeds make decisions. The DA is elected. Do NOT leave more problematic/conservative electeds out of your organizing plan because they seem unmoveable. You will end up expecting perfection of your friends and nothing of them, that hurts the cause.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

why the fuck are George Conway and Bill fucking Kristol the people offering an actual democratic strategy

they should give Bondi the voter rolls but with everything redacted..

We cannot allow the clarity and consciousness produced in these horrific moments of struggle to be co-opted by elites in the policing industry or Democratic establishment in service of any agenda other than reducing the size and power of the government’s capacities for repression and violence.

She has to give the magas a little story they can repeat to sleep at night because abducting toddlers and executing mothers and nurses in the street is something any good person would protest.

If you’re a democrat making a single fucking peep about our dictator’s foot soldiers requiring more training, you need to be slapped

The arc is long, assholes

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

it's never the crazy weird conspiracy theory weapons. they are poisoning you with toxins they are well-documented to have. they are beating you with ordinary sticks and shooting you with ordinary guns the only conspiracy is how they gained legal immunity to do this

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.

Gavin Newsom doesn’t belong in the White House, his social media does

sure but in this particular case you don’t really need to pop the pimple if you remove the entire ass

seriously dudes

For when they tell you ICE can be reformed if they just have more training

The last statement from the defendant a jury will hear is him calling his victim a "fucking bitch" as he films her car crashing.

ICE shot a legal observer in the face in Minneapolis. Abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of their deputized terrorists.

I knew it was wrong then, but what I didn’t understand was that I was about to watch hundreds of thousands of civilians—and thousands of my peers who were shipped off to foreign soil—be killed, maimed, and horrifically traumatized, all for the low price of $8 trillion. Regime change the USA.

cool okay well we’ll hang onto the frog costumes and next time you need to look like a pathetic loser just let us know

A mom in Portland has been separated from her child since June bc ICE kidnapped her. The only thing standing between her & her baby right now is a $7,500 bond. There's 5k to go. PLEASE let's do this. Many hands make light work. This is literally the reason for the gd mfing season gofund.me/3e980d9d3

The democratic coalition is either going to reform as an anti-corruption workers’ movement or it’s going to lose forever.

And with the City of Portland sitting on millions in unused funds that could be used, among other straightforward things, to keep people facing emergencies and tragedies in their homes. Oh, and a mayor obsessed with cots.

Should Democrats move to the center to chase the median voter? It's the wrong question. paulwaldman.substack.com/p/pundit-bra...

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Okay, if the GOP is suddenly onboard with releasing the Epstein files, now do this one. Haunt your congressional representatives’ phone lines and dreams until it’s all laid bare, my friends.

Journalists: I’m begging you to have a response to this. I’m begging you to demand your employers have a response to this. To hell with access. This is a threat.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

I got federal charged for dancing across the street from ICE in my neighborhood on Indigenous People's Day. Here is the feds evidence photo they are using against me in court. I really really need a good lawyer but I cant afford one. Cash app $cozca Venmo @cozca503 Working on a go fund me.

in the year of our lord 2025 you can legitimately find yourself wondering whether people are talking about the president or a member of insane clown posse

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

in light of sandwich guy I am contractually obligated to remind you that jurors can always prevent a conviction by choosing to say "not guilty" 🙂 the power to refuse to convict is espech important rn given the Trump admin's rampant criminalization and repression of dissent (and other freedoms, too)

This person took this when they called the race

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the sandwich artists who prepare the sandwiches, and the attorneys who defend the right to wield them. These are their stories.

an aperitif for madame?

You can have democracy or billionaires, not both.

The Electoral College is DEI for Red States.

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

drive the elite cowards out right along with the fucking fascists
