Hey PdX... ICE just rolled out over a dozen rented SUVs (at 8:30 on a Sunday).

Trump on Portland: "It's like the movies you see for the kids, I guess not only the kids, adults also, where you have these bombed out cities and these bombed out people. It's like, worse than that."

Tarrio is in PdX, be wary!

Things are likely to be spicy in BridgeCity, if you are going to music festivals.

From people I know in PdX Heads up, Joey Gibson, and known Proud Boys have been seen downtown. They have folks in all black act like they are against ICE, but then get into vehicles with Joey and co. If you see them, RECORD THEM. It looks like they are trying to cause trouble and violence.

Calling it a night for protesting in front of HBPD, thank you to everyone that showed up. We’re going to make it a nightly thing for as long as ICE and the National Guard are in LA, so if you didn’t make it this time, I’ll see you next time!

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

David Huerta, the local president of SEIU United Service Workers West, was injured and arrested by federal agents in the midst of a fascist and chaotic immigration “enforcement” event on Friday in Los Angeles. Since then, the current admin is “deploying” to provoke unrest in California.

I have no respect for ANY athlete that visits this White House. You are unAmerican if you do so, as is anyone who supports or enables this administration. Let me repeat that. You actions are in *direct* opposition to the Declaration of Independence.

63 studies: women who assert their ideas, make direct requests, and advocate for themselves are liked less. They're also less likely to get hired—and it hasn't improved over time. When will we stop punishing women for violating outdated gender stereotypes?

A thing people can do to make sure their fellow Americans know what is going on is hand out flyers at transit hubs, malls, etc with some data points and the URL/QR codes to more resources. And high school and high ed campuses

Colorado…

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means. He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education. This is eugenics.

Forcing therapists back into the office to conduct therapy in cubicles? Gutting SAMHSA, an org responsible for funding 988, treatment courts, & evidence-based training resources, among many other things... Trump's attacks on mental health treatment are dangerous! www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbcE...

Trump is now demanding that the Governor of Maine apologize and “never” challenge him again or else the entire state will face consequences.

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...

Anyway it’s so weird that all these end stage things are happening but all we still have to do regular chores and get dental care and stuff

First they came for the Palestinian protestor and I said “hey you Nazi fucks, you’re being Nazis, everyone else we need to shut these motherfuckers down RIGHT now” because I actually paid attention to the poem

Please do not allow this critically important story to get lost in the avalanche of Trump's chaotic news cycle. Human lives will be lost due to these fascists!

This is what one of my Senators will be doing on Tuesday instead of attending Trump’s address.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

They’re cutting Medicaid

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

There are a few places in this country that serve as testing grounds for conservative tactics, places where you can see the future before it arrives elsewhere. Coeur D'Alene, Idaho is one of those places -- I've written about it before This video should scare the absolute shit out of everyone

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

The reply-firing scheme is an excuse, but the data (ALL actions taken by the US government in the last week) are also really valuable, and will be sold the second those emails arrive.

First design sketch for a fourth block print in my series "Making Art For A Change". Series began in 2020; is a three way exchange: Patron donates to worthy cause - I send an original print - Worthy cause gets more donation than I could do alone. We each do what we can...

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

Sister Devilyn Carnate of the Portland Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence Order of the Benevolent Bliss said being part of the protest in Salem OR felt “amazing.” “The Sisters historically have been an organization that bears witness and holds space for communities that are marginalized.

Trump's Gaza plan is to round up the survivors, march them across country to some desolate place in a foreign land, and then take their property for "redevelopment." Who came up with this, the Bureau of Indian Affairs? If Trump offers you blankets, make sure you've got your smallpox vaccination

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Community health centers are now starting to shut down across the country because of Trump’s executive orders. These centers serve 1-in-5 rural patients in America.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

Knowing the names of the an unelected oligarch’s underlings who are destroying the government from within is a crime now, apparently.
