@jonathanmaus.bsky.social New diverter just installed at critical juncture of Caruthers and grand, where there are chronic camping and junk RV problems. Awesome that it didn't take two years of outreach and public meetings to make this happen.

‘86’ has meant remove or refuse service for decades — restaurants, bars, everyday slang. It doesn’t mean violence. ‘47’ = Donald Trump as the 47th president. ‘8647’ = kick him out of office. Calling that a death threat is either ignorance or intentional spin.

8647

Part of pushing back against car culture, driverless or otherwise, is pushing back against the idea that everyone has a right to be dropped off directly in front of their destination.

It can't be an invasion unless it takes place on the mainland. Otherwise, its just a sparkling intrusion.

@repdexteror.bsky.social I listened in to your town hall phone call. I think the only reason the listeners voted yes on your poll is because you asked the question in a confusing way. People don't support funding DHS while mass deportations are happening.

I think the World Cup should be relocated to Spain, France, Germany and the UK ⚽️ 🇪🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇬🇧

Fuck ice. I track ice. I watch ice. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/t...

So the military mobilized untested anti drone technology against a helium balloon near a commercial airport, causing the airport to shut down without warning. They then made up a story about Mexican cartel drones. This is like the three stooges version of the 99 red balloons anti nuclear war anthem

But are they actually working toward an Olympic medal? Most are just competitors in a sport that they work at day in and day out. Olympics are important, but no one is doing it solely in pursuit of an Olympic medal.

@jonathanmaus.bsky.social opportunity to discuss transportation funding prioritization and the political relevance of bicycles gets hijacked by people who eagerly jump in to air a laundry list of unrelated political grievances. The comment section is broken. bikeportland.org/2026/02/06/d...

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Rep Ilan Omar is physically attacked with a chemical substance while delivering a speech. Coincidence that earlier today Trump was attacking her with rhetorical slurs? www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/u...

BIG CHANGES NEED TO HAPPEN BY #MIDTERMS 🗳️ WATCHING ALL IN HOUSE AND SENATE. AMERICANS WE MUST VOTE OUT ALL COMPLICIT LAWMAKERS WHO ARE SILENT. 🤬

With government killers marauding US streets, countries should boycott the World Cup games scheduled to be played in the US, argues @edgeofsports.bsky.social. Now a leading German soccer official agrees. https://bit.ly/4aga5TQ

Everyone still think athletes will avoid DHS (ICE, CBP etc) racial profiling? #WorldCup ⚽️

Please read.

This is ok tho

they are murdering unarmed people in your state and you just want them to go do that to people in another state? this whole government, even the Democratic Party is illegitimate

Breaking News: Federal agents shot two people in Portland, Oregon, local officials said, prompting calls to end an immigration crackdown in the city.

We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

Puta la migra

i really think there is legit political space for running on "we are going to dismantle ICE"

The Epstein file is the only thing Trump has ever taken his name off of

They are blowing up boats for drug trafficking. Then he is pardoning a drug trafficker. Illogical.

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice. 🫶

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Listening to not just bikes eviscerate John Forester and the vehicular cycling "movement" brings to mind a number of frequent Bike Portland commenters who complain that the new SW 4th Ave bike lane won't allow them to ride their bikes in 3 lanes of car congestion. @jonathanmaus.bsky.social

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar? I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔

After striking out with the Nobel committee, Trump looks poised to receive a newly created "peace prize" from the most corrupt sporting organization in the world. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

No, Mr. President. You do not have the right to take away student debt forgiveness from teachers, nurses, veterans and other public servants if they do not show loyalty to your right-wing political agenda. This is a democracy, not a dictatorship. Rescind this illegal rule.

@jonathanmaus.bsky.social Looks like the fourth Ave bike lane is finally open for business.

It fuckin rules that every 6 months they bring our big boy president to the hospital to make him do the Junior Jumble on a Friendly’s placemat and then he spends the next several weeks bragging about how he found “TITAY” on the word search and it’s not even one of the words they ask you to find.

@nerd4cities.bsky.social you should team up with a geologist to do a video on why it is a terrible idea to do a Tesla loop or any underground transit in Nashville or anywhere that has karst geology. This is going to be an ecological disaster and it could lead to massive surface property damage.

Idea: let's start a class action lawsuit to go after Trump for destroying the White House. The class is the American people.

Cartoon by John Darkow.

What the hell is wrong with this country? Where are the leaders we elected to govern? How is Trump being permitted to just trash our constitution and national reputation? Ice is empowered to terrorize immigrant and citizen alike for superficial reasons, military being deployed in peaceful cities...

Wow.

TUNE IN: I’m holding the Senate floor to protest Trump’s grave threats to democracy. We cannot pretend this is normal. youtube.com/live/bE37g0m...

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

So. Trump posts AI video in which he shits on America Now, Trump tears down part of the White House after promising not to, to make room for one of his tasteless, ugly, gaudy, badly-built white trash crapshacks

BREAKING: new racist Republican groupchat has been leaked to Politico featuring texts from Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel. Ingrassia’s texts include vile pro-Nazi & racist messages targeting Black people, Chinese people, and Indian people.
