Grateful to join the rally to Free Hernan yesterday and to stand in solidarity for the collective demand of our elected officials, community and labor leaders, and neighbors to immediately bring Hernan Elias Escobar home and with his family. 1/🧵

As a reminder, when Jack Posobiec was in the US Navy, they assessed his full capabilities and concluded that he was best suited to collecting samples for urinalysis

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

Why aren't we holding them accountable 👇

Why aren’t we holding them to account? 💯 They sold our democracy and our children’s future—and we paid for it. It’s time for nonstop protest, citizen audits, and real accountability. Jail the guilty. We shouldn’t have to do their jobs while they vacation.

Hey, you guys? Is it a good sign or a bad sign if the prosecution is just getting its hands around the evidence *after* it criminally charged the former FBI director?

Anna Bower @annabower.bsky.social · 13h

At one point during the hearing, the judge asked the prosecution why the case can’t be tried before mid-December.

Lemons replied: We are “just getting our hands around” discovery in the case.

There’s lots of it, he added, and it includes a “significant” amount of classified information.

Trump’s attempts to crush the Constitutional rights to free speech and assembly in Democratic cities are straight out of the authoritarian handbook.

I will fight to protect the fundamental rights of every Oregonian and every American.
