Portlanders will not be cowed by this administration. When undignitaries like Kristi Noem visit for their photo ops and get mocked by people in animal costumes it’s because that’s the level of respect they deserve. Doing the work of mass deportation is the least honorable thing a person can do.

How many felons do you think are working for ICE at this point? I definitely think it's a a non-zero number. If they weren't a felon when they started, I suspect many of them are...now.

He wouldn't know. He hasn't visited most U.S. cities. Has he visited most U.S. states? Or, just the swing states? Does he even know where Portland is located? I doubt it.

Who’s playing 2020 videos of Portland for Trump and telling him they are current? How stupid or just a fucking moron he is. Portland is beautiful. Not on fire. No riots. Grandpa has lost all reality (or he’s lying like the lying liar he is) Or…both #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Trump’s Gaza peace plan does not resolve all the issues, @yair-rosenberg.bsky.social argues. "But Trump is counting on the force of his personality, the exhaustion of the parties, and the momentum created by the initial agreement to ultimately end the war entirely."

The Gaza War Isn’t Over Yet. But It Could Be Soon.

Trump may have ended the Gaza hostage crisis. Can he end the Gaza war?

The war in Gaza ended 6 to 9 months ago. It’s been pure genocide—a straight-up slaughter-and-starvation campaign—since then. Under no circumstances should anyone pretend that Netanyahu is still fighting a “war” just so that Trump can get a photo op and say he “ended” it.

Do better, corporate media.

Jordan knows a lot about covering for a sexual abuser from his time at Ohio State.
It should be no surprise that his party is refusing to seat a Democrat who will sign the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

youtube.com/shorts/LMkGM... #ProudBlue. Just a view of “Hell Hole” Portland where the entire city is “ Burning Down”. Trump will see this video and swear Portland has been invaded by large green dinosaurs. Whatever the senile old bastard sees on TV he believes.

And now for a report from the hellish war-zone that is Portland

Trump: “I don’t know what could be worse than Portland. They don’t even have stores anymore”.

Portland: Busts out the inflatable frog, raccoon, bear and unicorn for a late night dance party.

This isn’t a city of dangerous criminals.

It’s a city of artists. Of writers. Of weirdos. Of resisters.
