Trump is launching an authoritarian takeover of Portland hoping to provoke conflict in my hometown. I urge Oregonians to reject Trump’s attempt to incite violence in what we know is a vibrant and peaceful city. I will do everything in my power to protect the people in our state.
The Associated Press@apnews.com · 12mo agoBREAKING: Trump says he'll send troops to Portland, Oregon, as he expands military deployments in U.S. cities.
As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 12mo agoTrump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland
Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."
It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.
I imagined the Chatsubo in 1984. 41 years later I opened its door. Neuromancer is in production.
Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).
It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill. People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games. They know exactly what is going on. Defend Medicaid. Vote NO on Cloture. NO on bill.
Struck by how Trump proposed policies favoring the rich at the expense of everyone else, while Kamala aimed to ease burdens for most; raising taxes on the rich while expanding child tax credits, capping drug costs, and offering $25K homebuyer subsidies. Yet, Trump still won by over 2 million votes.
This is such a great point because here we have the world’s richest man and the president of the United States and they’re both idiots, and there’s a cognitive dissonance where one can argue “they can’t be idiots, look what they’ve accomplished.” But yet still they are idiots
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social · 2y agoThey need him to be a genius because they cannot handle what it means for them to be tricked by a fool.
The geniuses at the Democratic Party settling on “maybe we were too woke” rather than “a cabal of billionaire pedophile Nazis are stealing your money and taking a sledgehammer to your future” is astonishing. Just one of those things
Headed to Colombia 🇨🇴 for a stretch. Gonna be sporting the 🇨🇦 flag and using my Canadian passport.
Democrats need to hand the party apparatus over to AOC yesterday if they want a chance in this fight.
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.
