As we prepped for a move, many folks said "I'm trying to figure out what my last straw would be."

Everyone I speak to in America has the same sentiment: "yeah, but it's not in MY city."

You mean it's not in your city YET.

Who in Seattle or Austin or Orlando thinks they're gonna run this play in Portland and then go "well, guess that's enough!"

Feels like a situation where -- and look, I'm just spitballing here -- the media could take some reporters and cameras to various parts of Portland and report what they see rather than just do stenography for someone with a long history trying to game the system with lies and exaggeration.

The protests are on one block. Nothing is burning down. His justification for sending in troops is all based on lies.

Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

Wait till you get to the "untie our troops hands" bit on rules of engagement ... utterly terrifying.
