As of tonight, the Ellisons also own TikTok. So now our media is almost fully controlled by fascists. www.npr.org/2025/12/18/n...

Happy EPSTEIN Files Release Day Eve for all those who celebrate!!! 👍

Tragic, eerie, hard to process. youtube.com/watch?v=fouk...

Trump not only wants to destroy American Democracy, his alliance with Vladimir Putin will destroy Democracy around the world. ~Rob Reiner.

Rob Reiner was found dead in his Brentwood home alongside his wife Michele Singer. The deaths are being investigated as a homicide. Reiner was finishing a project called "The Spy and the Asset" a documentary about Putin & Trump. RIP Rob & Michele, you will be missed. ❤️ variety.com/2025/film/ne...

So well said. I’m appalled and distraught. He and his father were 2 of my favorite follows back on Twitter. It was so sad when Karl Reiner died, but this is a whole other level.

For those of us in the US this is helpful to fully understand the scale of what Russia wants to permanently steal from Ukraine. Russia is already the country with the largest land mass yet Putin believes he is entitled to more.

Yes trump wants to be evil like Putin, but don’t tell me Putin has nothing on him when this is how the two look after their 2018 Helsinki meeting.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

Most accounts on Twitter turn out to be Russian MAGA bots. Here’s why Bluesky has an intellectual diversity problem

This person has been pushing Kremlin talking points since the 1980s. Funny how little attention this gets 🤔

The British press doesn’t mince words. 🇬🇧

None of this trump and Epstein stuff is surprising and yet seeing it in print still feels jarring. it’s easy to be cynical but we absolutely don’t know what will break through until it does.

It’s almost like the people who are pushing fossil fuels and opposing renewables don’t actually care about jobs, energy costs, energy security, health, the environment, etc. They’ve made it a culture war issue, but it’s not about tree huggers vs capitalists or any of the other false dichotomies.

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.

Business rent is way too high on Mag (not Miracle) Mile so companies are just shuffling around. H&M moved two blocks down the road to save cash. He's blaming "murder and crime" in one of the safest parts of the city because the real problem is "landlords." Almost like that's the whole gambit.

Agree that we all need to look beyond US main stream media, now more than ever. While major news outlets were already consolidated into large corporations run by billionaires, things have gone from bad to worse with right-wing activists like Larry Ellison, taking over large pieces of the info-sphere

Alex Karp and Peter Thiel are two of the worst people on this planet running one of the most evil companies to ever exist—we should do whatever we can to make Palantir go bankrupt.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

After abolishing the Electoral College & ending Citizen's United, nothing would be better for this country than public testimony about January 6th from Jack Smith. A guy can dream, can't he? shorturl.at/o0qwt

This ad paid for by Canadians played during the World Series on FOX. If that isn’t chef’s kiss after an 11-4 trouncing of the vaunted Los Angeles Dodgers I don’t know what is. Thank you Blue Jays. Thank you Ontario. Thank you Canada. 🇨🇦👨‍🍳💋 ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️ ❤️🍁🇨🇦VIVE LE CANADA 🇨🇦🍁❤️

One of the main many reasons, I am not active on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

No Kings protest - Portland

The PDX frog is the croak heard around the world.

Joining all the terrorists at the Hate America rally #NoKings

Harrisburg, PA — there are so many older women in banana suits at the Capitol holding antifa signs and none of that sentence would have made sense to me 10 years ago

Unbelievable that the clarinet player from this band was arrested while peacefully playing music across the street from the ICE facility in Portland. This regime really is using our tax money to go after dangerous criminals.

"Record leap in CO2 fuels fears of accelerating global heating" [Gosh ... didn't see that one coming at all!] www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Tomorrow about a third of Perseverance rover staff will be laid off, despite the mission being the penultimate step in a decades long effort to bring samples back from mars. Reckless, needless budget cuts intended to hinder the pursuit of knowledge.

Russ Vought is now officially using the government shutdown as a pretext for his continued attempts to permanently gut the civil service. The executive branch cannot unilaterally reduce agency funding that Congress has allocated: This is a serious separation of powers issue.

📣The Freedom Frogs are multiplying‼️ This is the way Portland 🫡❤️🐸 Video @oregonian.com

Violinist serenading the peaceful crowd with the theme to Schindler's List 🎻 Another beautiful & peaceful night elsewhere in Portland, under a gorgeous & powerful Harvest Moon except for the droning of the occupation helicopters #Portland #ICE #PortlandProtest #Violin TikTok by @samanthamichelle888

Thoughts and prayers to Cosplay Cop Kristi who had to brave the dogs, farmer’s markets, capybaras, and marathon runners of Portland this week.

Portland is so good at trolling these fascists. I ❤️ Portland

Portland is so peaceful Republicans had to go all the way to South America to find photos from years ago for their bad memes.

With #Portland a #LivingHell worse than WWII, those of us still here are resorting to scavenging food from the wilderness.... we will suffer through with Five pounds of beautiful, fresh Golden Chanterelle Mushrooms. #pdx #ice #fakenews #portlandoregon #Oregon #Chanterelle #wildmushrooms #foraging

There is zero reason for troops to come to Portland. As someone who lives here, things are perfectly calm and we are having a beautiful fall.

Apparently creeping fascism is going to keep creeping. No end in sight.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Things are so dire here in PDX that my children were forced to go apple picking with me today. Please send help before we’re forced to head into a corn maze next weekend or ride around in a trailer full of hay pulled by a tractor. These are desperate times for the war weary people of Oregon.

Yup! PDX has an effect on people. They’ll form a band, or take up skiing or camping or hiking, etc., etc..

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.

Oregon AG Rayfield: I know for a fact, from talking to cities across Oregon, that if you pick up the phone and ask, “What could be helpful?” the answer would not be the United States military.

Scoop: Trump lost the legal battle over halting the offshore Revolution Wind project after Orsted, its developer, brought reams of evidence to court alleging the government was lying about military security concerns. It’s a sign truth can empower companies Trump targets. Via @heatmap.news

She knew how dangerous and compromised he was and she warned us.
