I don't love putting this on people's TL but they are trying REALLY hard to turn my city into an example. Every sneering mention of Portland is meant to entice someone to go off the deep end and commit some atrocity, so they can justify military occupation. They're trying to kettle an entire city

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

The Trump administration has been spreading anti-vaccine propaganda for months. Tonight, Trump's physician announced he just received a flu shot and a COVID booster.

Nearly 70% of Americans think the Trump economy is on the wrong track

And that was earlier this month, with record stock market highs, before Trump decided to crash everything again

Nearly 70% think the Trump economy is on the wrong track

The polls reflect the economy far better than the stock markets. The disconnect is fueling Trump's drive for dictatorship.

Hoover did everything wrong.

Shooti @bambooshooti.bsky.social · 5h

Some 500,000 Mexicans entered the U.S. during the 1920s. Businesses wanted the workers, but tensions in local communities increased. When the stock market crashed in 1929, those tensions reached a boiling point. Hoover called for deportations in his first State of the Union Address in 1930. /4

Interpreting Republicans.
"The economy" = "I want to steal!"
"The immigration problem" = "I want to steal!"
"Healthcare" = "I want to steal!"
"Democracy" = "I'm tired of stealing, I want to rape now!"
