I just got home from shopping in “bombed out” #Portland and I didn’t see one fire, or fight, or any boarded up windows! Just a vibrant colorful city filled with awesome restaurants and stores, all open for business! Even saw some new ones I want to check out!

Is Portland Burning?
No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

TODAY! Trump has once again tweeted a video of a magazine cover mocked-up to show him being elected president again & again into the distant future.

THIS was his response to NO KINGS? Is he TRYING to make our point for us? Not only does he think he's KING, he's a mad king.

Big Reminder:

We haven't even scratched the surface of Epstein's "tax shelter” businesses.

Senator Wyden said this week they have new evidence to report.

This will undoubtedly qualify as the crime of the century, and Trump is going to be shown to be a central participant.

Been saying this since the day of. Kirk was flogging him for the Epstein files chicanery. So he was suddenly more useful as a dead hero than a live traitor to the perfect God King Trump.

⚡️'He's going to take something' — Trump says Putin has 'won' territory in Ukraine.

"He's won certain property," Trump told Fox News, indicating that Putin would lay claim to Ukrainian lands as part of a U.S.-brokered peace deal.

Can’t pay federal workers. Can’t reopen the government.

But sure, let’s buy Kristi Noem TWO private jets. Republicans have lost absolutely all touch with reality.

The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million.

This comes as Americans can barely afford groceries.

Cancel SPOTIFY.

They are running ICE ads.

F them.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts
The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

This can’t be said often enough: Trump is selling out his most loyal voting block while bailing out somebody else’s.

📍Keep an eye on this: Trump’s intentionally sabotaging U.S. farmers. His billionaire buddies will benefit by acquiring their land on the cheap.

UPDATE: Jon Karl just failed to ask Speaker Johnson about Trump’s AI video.

Here let us help: “Mr. Speaker, do you think Trump posting a video of himself dumping literal shit on Americans helps or hurts his @nobelprize case? And do you still plan on leading that charge?”

To everyone claiming there were no arrests at the "No Kings" rallies yesterday, this is simply not true.

No, a Trump supporter was arrested for trying to use a gun against people exercising their First Amendment rights. He was arrested and his tacky Jeep with Trump flags was towed.

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire.

He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify.

If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens?

You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate?

Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

This is sick. Several of the MS13 gang members Trump traded to Bukele so he could have access to CECOT prison for deportees were actually COOPERATORS with law enforcement. He betrayed them. wapo.st/4nbNiM4
Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal
To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

My humble request would be that all those U.S. journalists who spent the last week credulously reporting on Trump's "success" in the Middle East simply because he gave a grotesquely premature victory lap unanchored by any actual accomplishment retire permanently from the practice of journalism today

The rule that the Speaker of the House has sole discretion as to when members of Congress are sworn-in to office is obviously flawed AF.

Once election results are recognized and certified, any active judge should be allowed to swear representatives into office.
