Yes. And Congress is in recess because Mikey Johnson doesn’t want a vote on releasing the Epstein files

Rage without action rots.

Many versions of this and it’s been attributed to multiple people but the message seems appropriate.

Which one is the terrorist?

The ones carrying signs questioning our government?

Or the non-uniformed , unidentified, masked people carrying weapons and grabbing children and people from their jobs, their homes and places of worship, zip tying them, often beating them, and disappearing them?

This can’t be a surprise to anyone. They’ve been leading up to this for a long time.
They want to suppress your voice and your vote.
The whole damn country needs to get out on the streets and protest.
Peacefully.

They cannot stop millions of us.

Epstein files must be really bad.

BREAKING: Stephen Miller—both Trump Administration capo and de facto head of DHS, ICE, and DOJ, has just declared that peaceful protesters are "street terrorists." Under an executive order signed by Trump just days ago, that means he is saying that all protesters in America can be arrested on sight.

There is a one block area in Portland where there are peaceful protests.
Trump wants to outlaw protests or anyone or anything that disagrees with him.
Hence, the “war zone”.
Again, NOTHING is burning and there is no violence in Portland.

By the way, RELEASE EPSTEIN FILES.

The video trump is using to justify his military deployment to Portland are from what took place after the George Floyd murder.
Portland is not burning.
Protests have been peaceful.
He is trying to incite violence. And I fear he may get his wish.
But remember who caused it.

I never thought the US military would be ok with deploying troops to US cities, not to assist with disasters, but to intimidate those who disagree with the president.
Generals and top military leadership, you have a choice.
Defend the constitution and US citizens.

Dear Generals of the U.S. Military,

Are you ok with the military being deployed to cities, not to assist with a natural disaster,but to intimidate and arrest citizens?
That is not protecting the constitution, the country or the people.
That is waging war on all of those things.

Please help us.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down.

The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed.

And they get another vacation

Another peaceful day in Portland, Oregon.

And the war rages on.

I echo these sentiments : we don’t need you and don’t want you here Donald.

So looking forward to flying knowing that air traffic controllers are not only dealing with outdated technology but also being forced to work without pay because Republicans want to take away your healthcare.

One of two things is true. JD Vance is incompetent and aware OR JD Vance is a liar.
Undocumented immigrants cannot sign up for healthcare.
GOP wants to cut off funding for ACA. Trump wants to fire federal workers rather than protect your healthcare.

Yep. Better call in the military to thwart this peaceful demonstration at the ICE facility in Portland.
A dozen or so protesters yelling at ICE agents.

What a whiny,weak man-baby.

I think he’s sinking further into mental decline.

Family intervention.

“Oregon is our home. It is not a military target. Any deployment would be an abuse of power and a misuse of federal troops," Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek said she told President Donald Trump on a phone call Saturday.

Neither Portland or the federal buildings in Portland are under siege.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs.

2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar.

3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Energy Secretary Chris Wright on Fox: "We're announcing today expanded programs to help the American coal industry. We're helping it because for years it has been under assault. It was out of fashion with the chardonnay set in San Francisco, Boulder, and NYC ... coal just makes the world go round."

NEWSFLASH:

ALL THE MOST POWERFUL MEN ON THE PLANET ARE IN THE EPSTEIN FILES.

I don’t even need the files to tell me that. All I have to do is look at how people are acting.
