What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy

Gov. Gavin Newsom: ‘I disagree’ with calls to abolish ICE
The 2028 presidential contender came out against calls to dismantle ICE after an agent fatally shot a Minneapolis woman.

Ack-ack!
So I found out this is one of the ICE agents involved in this incident.

Left a message with Wyden (again).

Talked to a very kind staff person with Merkley. They appreciated the hydration reminder.
Im going to hit these numbers again and firmly ask (demand) that:

Abolish and prosecute are the bare minimum expectations and must include ICE, CBP, and DHS.

Schumer's proposal is NOT ACCEPTABLE and he must step down

No government is better that the current government

They stay hydrated
Wyden in DC
(202) 224-5244

Merkley in DC
(202) 224-3753

I'm also inclined to request that they push to have Schumer step down as leader. He is not meeting the moment.

Good morning.

I have got about 12 more ounces of coffee to finish before Senators Merkley and Wyden hear from me.

Nothing short of ABOLISH AND PROSECUTE ICE is acceptable.
January 29, 2026 at 10:15 PM
No.
WE BELIEVE that ICE/CBP/DHS should be ABOLISHED and PROSECUTED.
Jeffries: "We believe there should be a prohibition on ICE deporting or detaining American citizens. We believe that ICE should conduct itself like every other law enforcement agency in the country. We believe ICE shouldn't run around with masks ... "

27% is too damn high.
Pew has Trump's approval at 37%. And:

"Only about a quarter of Americans today (27%) say they support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, down from 35% when he returned to office last year. That change has come entirely among Republicans."

North Portland, heads up for some action tomorrow (Friday, Jan 30) at George Park. This was on IG and appears to be student led, though I cannot confirm the organizers.

I'm planning on checking it out if you want to meet up. Meet at 11, walk at 11:30, line up on N. Lombard.
