@oregonian.com Can you fix your headline? City councilors’ only role was to show up and speak.

Is Roblox one of the donors? I saw them named initially but current lists do not include them.

Is Roblox actually funding the demolition? This post is the only place I’ve seen them listed.

It’s DEEDS that matter, not words.

Your state, county, and local city police departments continue to aid ICE with violent crackdowns on journalists and peaceful protestors at Broadview.

Warrantless home invasions and kidnappings of brown people continue unabated.

What will you DO about it?

“They had the black people in one van, and the immigrants in another van.” The kids were “zip-tied to each other.”

No fascism with my favorite franchises, please and thank you

Screenshot of Disney plus cancellation page. Reason stated for cancellation is “You removed a television program because the Trump regime wished it. I don’t support fascism. It’s too bad you chose to.”

Remember when this administration alleged that Kilmer Abrego Garcia was a member of MS 13 and produced a badly photoshopped image of his knuckles with a MS 13 tattoo as ‘proof’?

Why would you take anything this administration “alleges” about anyone else at face value?

They're turning this into their Reichstag fire and they're openly admitting it.

On Monday, two senior administration officials, who spoke anonymously to describe the internal planning, said that cabinet secretaries and federal department heads were working to identify organizations that funded or supported violence against conservatives. The goal, they said, was to categorize left-wing activity that led to violence as domestic terrorism, an escalation that critics said could lay the groundwork for crushing anti-conservative dissent more broadly.

Some of the highest-ranking officials in the federal government used Mr. Kirk’s podcast, “The Charlie Kirk Show,” to lay out their plans.

I just saw a comment that said "I don't support what happened to Charlie, but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie."

THAT ... that's what I've been trying to put into words.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s social media posts have been trending lately, and it’s all thanks to a Latina leading his digital strategy.

Camille Zapata is the head of Newsom’s press office. She and her team have met Trump’s all caps posts with similar tone and cadence.
