Portland isn’t “war ravaged”.
Chicago doesn’t need “saving”.
Tylenol doesn’t cause autism.
People still care about the Epstein files.
Escalators breaking down is not news worthy or an emergency.
Medbeds are not the answer.
Keep resisting fascism. Ignore the distractions. Fight back.
I wonder how many people fully appreciate that Trump just falsely declared the blue state of Oregon to be in a state of Rebellion against the United States so he could deploy active-duty military from the Department of War to kill American citizens
Meanwhile, he *pardoned* the January 6 terrorists
The last time Trump sent Feds to Portland; I was an emergency dispatcher for the city/county.
It radicalized me; what I was seeing/hearing/dispatching didn’t match the narrative.
Proud Boys/Patriot Prayer were the REAL issue.
Abolish ICE.
Oh, and there’s this: gizmodo.com/donald-trump...
There is absolutely zero need for this costly show of militarized force in Portland.
📌 Armored vehicles with federal agents arrived at the federal building in Portland.
He didn’t end 7 wars or win 2024 by a landslide.
There is no war in Portland.
Tariffs don’t build strong economies.
Vaccines save lives.
Tylenol is safe in pregnancy.
Crime is not skyrocketing.
Facts are not partisan.
The only thing unhinged is his grip on reality and the danger is real.
Fight back. Don't give up
"It's absurd to think that … the government of the United States that [the people] pay for, that they vote for, is really in service of one man. ... He is using every arm of the government to create pleasure for himself … and also to seek vengeance upon his enemies."
Must read👇👇👇
As bad as the ICE attack on these protesters was
Just imagine what might happen in Portland
With Donald Trump authorizing the National Guard to use “full force”
Alex Acosta remains defiant defending his decision not to prosecute Epstein.
He “essentially said he didn’t have faith in the victims, their stories and their ability to tell their own story and their own testimony, which is deeply disturbing to all of us sitting in there,” said Rep. Maxwell Frost.
Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.
Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
People have power. Ask Target
We saw picture after picture of NatGuard and Marine vehicles. DHS did that ridiculous horse-and-tank raid on a ... soccer field.
All of which was in a really small pocket of the giant sprawl that is LA.
But it looked total and intense, bc they didn't film the hundreds of non-invaded sq miles.

Personally I am unfamiliar with any legitimate activity that requires switching license plates, which by the way is illegal.
You can see the ICE agents in their minivans then the LAPD cars in the back appearing to block the Dodger Stadium parking lot entrance.
When I asked an LAPD officer if they are blocking ICE from entering the parking lot she said “put it this way. The Dodgers don’t want them coming in.”
More American children and teens die from firearms than any other cause, but there are more deaths — and wider racial disparities — in states with more permissive gun policies, according to a new study ohiocapitaljournal.com/briefs/guns-...
“Running the government like a business” is just another way of saying that we should privatize government services afforded to everyone.
You know who would love that? Wall Street and big corporations.
Don’t buy into the myth. https://youtu.be/hqn1uD_B70U?si=aClsRAYTJHYGXpB4
It shows a jeep driving through the parade, next to stands that are 25% full at most
Look at the stands for Trump's military parade/birthday party.
Please keep your eyes on Portland Oregon right now
There's a riot declared near the ice facility in Portland and DHS agents have pulled lethal guns on protesters with live ammo at least four times the last half hour
Lee J. Carter @carterforva The history of Nazis holding rallies in left-wing areas of Weimar Germany, instigating street fights, and then telling the press that only they could save Germany from the "violent communists" seems like an important thing for people to be studying right now.
Trump is and always will be a little bitch !!!
#FuckTrump
Call all your reps and senators, national and state. Your governor. Especially if they're GOP. Remind them that when political assassinations are happening, NONE OF US are safe. Scripts and ☎️ @ 5calls.org.
Eisenhower was generally opposed to military parades, believing they could make the U.S. appear weak and were unnecessary displays of power. He preferred to focus on the costs of military spending and the importance of peace over showmanship.
more from @inthesetimes.com: "And when a state labor leader observing the raids got swept up in the brutal immigration crackdown, it sparked nationwide action by labor unions against federal raids, detentions and deportations."

They are not hiding their intentions.
There’s the Kristi Noem version—then there’s the truth.
WATCH: Sen. Alex Padilla’s first interview since he was forced out of a federal building press conference… for daring to ask questions.
