There is only one source of violence and unrest in Portland - it's the Trump's goons force disrupting normal life.

The blocking situation is out of control. Someone put me on an mis/disinformation list and then blocked me. I am not sure if I would get in trouble for sharing their handle, but I deleted my post before I checked DM’s and without regard to 1k reposts… because I don’t care. This pisses me off.

CajunBlueAZ ⚜️🇺🇸 🇺🇦 @cajunblue.bsky.social · 23h

Sorry folks. As it turns out, the video of the Portland police officer, was not speaking to an ICE officer. I deleted it.

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

Bondi claims that the ICEBlock app was "criminal in that people were posting where ICE officers lived"

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Pope Leo tells US bishops to address Trump's immigration crackdown

Pope Leo told U.S. bishops visiting him at the Vatican on Wednesday that they should firmly address how immigrants are being treated by President Donald Trump's hardline policies, attendees said, in the latest push by the pontiff on the issue.

This picture is haunting. But look in that man’s eyes. He doesn’t look confident whatsoever. I’m not saying they aren’t dangerous, but they’re in way over their heads. From Trump all the way down to the most inept ICE recruit who just got off his couch last week to play Mortal Kombat IRL.

Pick your battle because it’s one or the other. Either we shut everything down with a general strike and protest every day or we let assholes like this terrorize us. Which do you want?

Every time you try to ignore the Epstein list, it posts a selfie.

Social media post:
Mike Johnson: "When the simple truth is on your
side, you have nothing to hide from."
Governor Newsom Press office
Then why are you hiding the Epstein list?

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Arrest any members of ICE involved and move to ban them from the streets of America.

Adam Cohen (My Personal Views Only) @axidentaliberal.bsky.social · 21h

Thus far, ICE and CBP in the Chicago region killed an immigrant

Shot a woman 5 times-after allegedly taunting her, saying “Do something, b****”

And shot a priest-who wasn’t remotely a threat-in the head

So when does Governor Pritzker deploy the National Guard to protect citizens from these thugs

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants
