There are at least 10,000 Amcits in Qatar alone, and the US government is saying we are on our own

*Just in the LAST WEEK*: - Prisons are experimenting on trans prisoners to "cure" them - Kansas revoked every trans Kansan's driver's license - Scouts agreed to ban trans kids - Texas declared all health services stop helping trans kids - SCOTUS declared it legal to out trans kids to abusive parents

GENDER-AFFIRMING CARE IS HEALTH CARE. Thank you to the NY Attorney General’s Office for affirming our community.

peggy flanagan’s campaign manager on twitter reporting that angie craig is down 13 points in the minnesota senate primary with 75% of voters saying that her vote for the laken riley act is disqualifying, which would certainly explain her suddenly apologizing for it just days after standing by it

The Speaker of the House defending the outsourcing of the decision to go to war not just to the executive branch but to a foreign government. Article I Crisis on steroids.

It's a start! Thanks to the over 200 Oregonians who took action last week to testify or write to the governor's data center advisory council last week to make your voices heard! Because of your actions, we were able to win this 1.5 yr moratorium on data center tax breaks.

If no one rode the train, they’d tell us that’s why they are cutting the train. Now that everyone’s riding, they have to avert their eyes and straight lie wretchedly.

It is unconscionable that our state legislature’s Democratic supermajority is considering taking money that ensures that kids can walk to school safely and redirecting it to fund our state’s largest source of emissions and child mortality.

They’re trying to ratfuck us again. Slipping in changes to gut safe routes to school, Amtrak and bike/pedestrian Stone Age. Republicans want to turn us into a dying state with no services. We have to fight back Please fill out testimony tonight if you can. A simple oppose to what’s in this post

I am supremely impressed by the ability of Revoke group members to resist new information and learn absolutely nothing in service of remaining maximally disruptive and creepy

let’s just say there’s a reason my goal is to canvas for a legislative primary at least once every week until the election in may

why did legislators drop this at the last minute, leaving transportation groups scrambling to respond? maybe because they realize how bad it looks that they’re literally planning to spend bike registration fees on highway maintenance

lots of reasons to dislike this, but one particularly concerning issue raised by @aortarail.org is that we’re cutting funds that we use to access federal matches for the amtrak cascades line, making the real lost funding even larger

folks, SB 1601 is bad news. from the @portlanddsa.bsky.social ecosocialist working group newsletter, it would result in the following cuts:

look, I've heard people claim that Al Gore would have invaded Iraq and that Hilary Clinton would have put anti-abortion justices on the Supreme Court. 'the imaginary version of the Democrats in my head' is always going to win for some people really committed to the 'both parties are the same' crap.

"we fight to win" then it shouldn't be hard to articulate a win condition

A democratic cacophony here in downtown Portland at the antiwar action

We get what we pay for, and we pay for part-time legislators.

I wish Oregon had a legislature capable of governing.

Me looking at the Oregon legislature like 👁️👁️

The New York attorney general's office has ordered NYU Langone to resume gender affirming care for trans youth due to violating New York Human Rights law. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/02/n... Bypass here. archive.ph/4NboB

Hi. You cannot be a moderate if you sit down with white supremacists and nod solemnly while they whine in bad faith about trans people. C'mon now.

incredible, he did the joke

I’ve started unfollowing activist accounts on social that are using all their energy to try to make you and fellow progressive Councilors ICE permit “inaction” the biggest thing in Portland left politics. Clearly they’re “eat your own” activists that understand neither process nor power.

There is a real enemy to fight in this moment, and it’s not each other. To me that’s the greatest tragedy of this time because I don’t know how we overcome this if we don’t work together.

I’ll be honest I thought it was dangerous when right wing folks were filming, felt less concerned when I realized it was revoke people, but a random man you don’t know with his face half covered following u/ filming you while you’re alone is not awesome. Some folks walked me to make sure I was safe

I started getting followed on my way home from an anti-war rally by a guy who was filming me so I assumed he was a right wing agitator and then he was a revoke person…demanding I answer why I support keeping the building open (I’ve never given a statement either way bc it’s a quasi judicial matter)

It’s beyond weird, folks

I truly hope this reaches the eyes of anyone who might be thinking of doing something like this. DO NOT FOLLOW WOMEN. DO NOT FILM THEM WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU THINK OF THEIR POLITICAL POSITIONS.

Just in time for tomorrow's Oregon Joint Subcomm on Capital Construction, let's oppose the transfer of bicycle tax revenue et al. from the Multimodal Active Transportation Fund to highway maintenance! @ortrailscoalition.bsky.social makes your testimony easy: mailchi.mp/oregontrails... 1/4

uh UH UHHH

Just to recap from my soda-straw perspective: My government started a war of choice that led to my home being bombarded by missiles and drones depleting our air defenses which they refuse to resupply while telling us to evacuate after our airspace was shut because their war put us in danger

Gallego: "Young American men and women are dying because of these idiots"

I'm just glad I live in a state with a Democratic supermajority, where our legislators can scramble together millions at the last minute for the important things, like an arena renovation that will benefit a billionaire

Haha! They’re throwing Vance under the bus.

Two days into the war: - three F-15s shot down - U.S. embassy in Saudi Arabia in flames - six U.S. service members confirmed dead; more wounded - State Department tells Americans to flee the entire Middle East

They're calling it SuperBenghazi.

a sole owner LLC guy whose only customer is his mother does not have anything useful to say to me about working people tbh

BC will no longer be aligned year round with the US states in the Pacific time zone, because of our stupid trade war with Canada

Seems like the Trump administration’s staggering idiocy just got six U.S. service members killed - who never got advance warning from their own leaders to take cover. www.cnn.com/2026/03/02/p...

i did not think i had anger to spare this week, but the thought of raiding Portland's democratically created climate fund to give a cut to a sports team owning billionaire is making me realize otherwise.

this one fucked me up so much. guy turns his life around after a drug conviction, becomes a happy, beloved, pet rescuing houseboat dad who undersells his mechanic services so poor folks can afford them. ICE grabs him one day out of the hospital for heart problems which then kill him. horrifying

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

Minnesota would like a word.

I really don't think "There are so many antisemitic podcasts out there that you just can't help but appear on them" is the defense they think it is.

This is a much better use of our tax dollars than propping up sports franchises

This makes it even more infuriating.

every time i think i've lowered my expectations enough to read the news with a still jaw they find a way to crawl under the bar

Texas AG Ken Paxton has declared that it is illegal for mental health providers and therapists to treat trans youth. It means that trans youth will be denied access to any mental healthcare that isn't conversion therapy. Paxton also threatens parents of trans youth with child abuse investigations.
