They’ve long had it out for Portland.

This is a clip from my now-infamous 2020 conversation with the Portland DA

And a link to the story I wrote after Andy Ngo seemed to take it to heart.

Russ Vought claims to be a Christian. 🤔

He plans on destroying OUR government by causing trauma to Federal workers

I don't think that is very Christian like, seems EVIL to me.

As a CF parent I would love 5 minutes in a room with him .

Thank you @repsuhas.bsky.social

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

We really need to spread this everywhere. This story is breaking through, even to MAGA folks. ICE is out of control, waging indiscriminate violence. Even on members of the clergy.

There’s a brutal hypocrisy in Peter Thiel, a man who sees himself as Aragorn, yet appears to the rest of us as Sauron. Tolkien had a loathing of technology and ‘machines’ that would horrify him if he were alive today to see what one of his so-called admirers has produced.

#DemVoice1 #DV1

The news today about "Atomic bombs" is so horrifying one is stunned. The utter folly of these lunatic physicists to consent to do such work for war-purposes: calmly plotting the destruction of the world! Such explosives in men's hands, while their moral and intellectual status is declining, is about as useful as giving out firearms to all inmates of a gaol and then saying that you hope "this will ensure peace".
Well we're in God's hands. But He does not look kindly on Babel-builders.

ICE agents in Chicago kidnapped WGN-TV camera operator Debbie Brockman, loaded her into a van with a New Jersey license plate. @booker.senate.gov Can you help explain? @jbpritzker.bsky.social did anyone give permission for ICE agents from NJ to invade Illinois?

In the poll — which sampled 2,295 U.S. adults on Oct. 6 — a majority, 60%, said immigration agents arrest American citizens often

Is ICE wrongly arresting US citizens? Here’s what Americans say in new poll

The survey also asked respondents if ICE agents are using the appropriate amount of force.
