You gotta admit spelling his name wrong in the headline definitely tips their hand.

CBS News would never put a thinly sourced 'story' by a rookie blogger like this on it's air. Until now. The Free Press isn't a journalism outlet, it's bloggers aren't reporters. This piece is more NYPost than Tiffany Network but I guess that's the goal.

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

A friend ran the Chicago marathon today and said he couldn’t count the number of FUCK ICE signs along the way.

His job at Jubitz is basically professional nepo, so he can rant without fear of consequences.

He won't be running for office again until he gets """"assaulted""" on Tri-Met because a Black woman spoke to him.

I'm a big Okapi booster because their cups are so high in quality and so no plastic at all and you get a depressed contract legal professional friendly 2 weeks to bring them back.

Rest in piss, fire season.

So...ya reckon the PNW-wide burn ban worked? You know, the no loss of human life thing, it might have been worth it. The fact that everything was flashing red but we had summer rain to speak of.

That's a pretty good dodge. Y'all done good.

Dear @gavinnewsom.bsky.social – You've been my Mayor, Lt Governor, and Governor for 21 consecutive years. As you can see it's not difficult to do right by trans people. California doesn't proper from bigotry. San Francisco is enriched by trans acceptance. Please just take a stand for the truth.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Who would have guessed that people who chose to become cops AFTER a national reckoning with the inherently racist and violent nature of the job would then proceed to be racist and violent?
It's almost like Ted Wheeler and Rene González knew what they were doing by recruiting so heavily post-2020.

The PPB tenure of the 7 PPB officers involved in the last 3 deadly force/in custody death incidents:

2.9 years
1.7 years
1 year
6 years
2.92 years
2.53 years
1.83 years

DPSST records show that none of them have worked at any other law enforcement agency in Oregon.

RIFs at CDC.

Destroying the Epidemic Intelligence Service, NCIRD, NCIPC & a dozen other areas/divisions/branches will cause enormous harm and suffering to America, and indeed to the whole world.

Call your Reps about it.

Then call them again.

Remember that if the Democrats take power again, they will go into great detail telling you why they can't do things.

You will tell them that Trump did those things, and they will say he broke the law.

You will then ask why he hasn't been arrested, and they will be very quiet.

a vpn alone won't save you. use one anyways.

watch for unusual signal strength in places where it's shit. verizon has a bad dead area on powell in the 20s and up in the park blocks by/behind PSU. question more than 2 bars there. goose hollow is bad on AT&T, etc.

ICE spent $800K on vans with stingray tech that collects data from all nearby phones, even yours. These devices mimic cell towers to track locations and intercept communications. Oversight and transparency are needed now.

I suspect you're right. There's a lot of AI corpo dipshit money behind Vivek; there's gonna be a lot of whoit hate money behind whatever opposition coalesces.

The GOP could be fragmenting. Or it could somehow stay together through an election. I love this fucking timeline.

This government is a well-oiled machine that’s definitely not suffering from internal power struggles hastily papered over as technical mistakes

The employees "were sent incorrect
notifications, which was fixed last night and this morning with a technical correction," a senior administration official said. "Any correction has already been remedied."

He believes the Armageddon will be ushered in by an antichrist-type figure who cultivates a fear of existential threats such as climate change, Al and nuclear war to amass inordinate power. The idea is this figure will convince people to do everything they can to avoid something like a third world war, including accepting a one-world order charged with protecting everyone from the apocalypse that implements a complete restriction of technological progress. In his mind, this is already happening. Thiel said that international financial bodies, which make it more difficult for people to shelter their wealth in tax havens, are one sign the antichrist may be amassing power and hastening Armageddon, saying: "It's become quite difficult to hide one's money."

The people who founded this country mentioned both Muslims and Hindus explicitly.

Vivek is a dipshit. But he's a dipshit who has every right to be here no matter what a bunch of baby Nazis think.

Maybe he'll learn from this. Or maybe he remains a dipshit. But you too can grow, Vivek.

We shouldn’t hold our breath for some mythic future moment of contrition from people who were arguing in bad faith the whole time. “Making America Great” wasn’t ever their goal. It was always a euphemism for white nationalists to direct state violence at real and perceived enemies. Masks are off now

Portland is decidedly not on fire but a bunch of people are wearing gang clothes today that say MARINERS on them.

We have been randomly high-fiving in the WinCo, though.

Dear WH Press Corp
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Start demanding answers. Portland isn’t on fire. Chicago isn’t at war. Seattle isn’t thanking him.
ANTIFA isn’t assaulting ICE agents
Hold him accountable for the lies.
Refuse to ask anything else until he answers these.
Demand the proof
