This is absolutely Stephen Miller. I agree 💯
I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.

ICE arrested someone at Home Depot in The Dalles this morning. Protest there 2 - 3:30 pm tomorrow (Sunday). Home Depot's policy is to help ICE kidnap people. Bring your costumes, signs, peace, love & fighting spirit. Show you care & see you there💙🐸

It’s getting real for Home Depot. The flash mob is only the warm up, the nationwide boycott hits on November 27th.
Chant: “Tax the rich tax, the motherf*cking rich.”

This works a lot of the time. I don’t miss Amazon.
People may be unaware, but *a lot* of the sellers on Amazon have their own websites, with better prices and selection. They just aren’t allowed to mention or promote it on Amazon.
If you find something you want on Amazon, do a search for the seller and see if they have a non-Amazon site.

These yellow signs are making a splash in our small Oregon town (including my front yard). It’s by far not the only thing we’re doing to protect our neighbors, but it sends a message.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

This is such excellent news — thank you, thank you Senator Merkley. 👏👏👏
HUGE NEWS! Because of Democratic pressure, Oregon SNAP recipients are reporting their cards have the FULL November benefits!
Everyone who called out Trump for using hungry children and seniors as a bargaining chip has WON with tremendous results!!

Did I want to live through the last 10 months to see this day? I did not. Did we have to in order for this day to come? Maybe, unfortunately, that’s what it finally took. I hope this is the start of everything better.
I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

This is so good. Join us on Saturday, wherever you are. It will be fun, and it will make you feel a little better about things.
one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

I would just like to know if there is anyone besides billionaires, MAGA especially, but really anyone, who truly believes life is better now than it was a year ago.

So agree. And also, if she were a man, she’d be called persistent or determined instead of annoying.
Greta Thunberg has more courage & moral clarity than any world leader I have ever seen.
Bar none.
Period.
That tiny 22 year old is often accused of being annoying, but what she is, is unyielding to moral ambiguity. If it’s wrong, she says so until someone listens.
She deserves the Nobel Prize
