Really enjoyed chatting more with @tressiemcphd.bsky.social about how the federal government is weaponizing private data. Privacy has become a life-and-death issue, and I have a plan to rein the government in. Thread:

This is so sad, no more Lloyd Center? I started going there when I was a kid.

OTOH, it's been at least a few years since I was there last.

Oregon Congresswoman Andrea Salinas‬ actually shows up for her constituents. I'm one of them. Thanks, Congresswoman! #OR06
I voted NO on today’s spending package. I won’t vote to give another cent to ICE while they keep terrorizing our communities and violating our rights.

Epstein Files: “Some suggested the Clintons ‘caved’ to Congress’ demands. More likely they’ve set a precedent that requires people with far stronger linkage to Epstein—& their wives—to testify. If they don’t, the GOP-led investigation in Congress will face claims that it’s trying to hide the truth”
Today was one of those days where it was difficult to keep up with everything of significance that happened. Here’s a little help that should get you up to speed on at least some of it. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Portland: Our war zone yesterday. 👇
“It’s just weird to see a toddler in a pink onesie getting their eyes washed out from tear gas, you know?”
New — I spoke to eight people who were present at the ICE protest on Saturday in Portland, Oregon when federal agents deployed tear gas and rubber bullets into a crowd of families, children, elderly and disabled people, and their pets.

You have my word—I’m a hell no on any funding for ICE. My district has made it clear—ICE’s flagrant lawlessness, cruelty and lack of leadership at the top must end.
