Primaries are there for a reason. I'm not interested in "vote Blue no matter who" especially as its given us people like Fetterman. Push to make Democratic candidates better or replace them.

And with that, I think its time to drop Platner.

Trump’s construction of the Epstein Ballroom continues today. Can only imagine he’ll be renting it out for many junior proms.

And they laughed when he said "The old ballroom could only hold 88 people." Why aren't the media reporting this and explaining what it means?

Street Roots is better than most journalism outlets, including The Guardian.

At this point he has to prove he's not Fetterman.

At the very least, he has to prove he's not Fetterman. Not looking good.

Look I am just saying that if we simply threw women, Black folks, immigrants, LGBTQ people, Muslims and other minorities under the bus we could go back to discussing the class-based white people politics that I, a white male pundit, am most comfortable discussing. Is that so hard?

I don't think the Portland Police want troops here any more than we do. Having said that, I'm still confused by the new face of the Portland Police. A new chief isn't enough, we've had those before and the union just ignored them. Maybe it's Hardesty suing cops *individually*? I don't know.

People should absolutely be writing about how ICE's occupation of their cities is transforming life in these places, and they should be publishing it in print on paper - not just social media posts. There needs to be a record of this. Things are changing in measurable ways for the worse every day.

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

3 people taken from a house on Whipple near Montrose who were working on it. Neighbors filmed and shamed the officers. This is tough but neighbors came together to patrol, maybe we prevented more abductions. 💔
