I head home from Tacoma soon. Are there supplies I need to bring back to assist with the siege?

So I don't even watch Kimmel, but most folks are trying to catch what might be a red-hot monologue. KATU once again, showing its a$$.

If the Nexstar deal goes through, three of Portland’s four major local broadcasters will be owned by media companies that offered anticipatory obedience to the president.

BREAKING: Our opposition and upset over Jimmy Kimmel being taken off air have led to Kimmel coming back. Let's organize that much noise for reporters like Mario Guevara detained (despite being here legally) for filming police & ICE:

Deadline executive editor Dominic Patten said that he's hearing Disney may back down after public backlash over the yanking of ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.
