What's the difference? Why did she have to fall all over herself to apologize back then in 2017, when this orange idiot gets to declare war on our own cities TODAY and everyone is either silent or defending him?

Yesterday, I visited the Portland ICE facility. Our communities deserve transparency, due process, and to know what’s happening beyond ICE walls. I will continue these oversight visits for every single Oregonian who demands answers.

POV: You’re doing something so despicable and cruel that you need to spend nearly a million dollars on an ICE propaganda video to convince people to snatch families off the street. Trump is spiraling and the American people are waking up. Stay loud. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump's ICE Spent Half a Million on Tricked-Out Trucks for a Hype Video
It should probably come as no surprise that Trump’s admin would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on new trucks to showcase on social media.

Texas is stealing 5 seats—more red states are lining up. California can’t carry this fight alone. We need more blue states stepping up on redistricting. If you live in a blue state, contact your governor now Here’s why 📌CA: Up to 5 seats possible 📌IL: 0–1 seat possible 📌NY: 1–2 seats possible

Chaofeng Ge, a 32-year-old immigrant from China, was pronounced dead last week after he was found hanging by the neck in the jail's shower. Ge had been held at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center for five days. Moshannon is operated by the private prison company GEO Group and is the largest ICE jail in the northeastern U.S. The number of people detained at immigration jails has now surpassed 60,000 — a record high.

In the 50s/60s, America saw unmatched GDP growth, booming wages, and a thriving middle class—while the top marginal tax rate was 91%. If we truly want to “Make America Great Again” economically, history shows the way: invest in all, and ensure the wealthiest pay their share.

My hunch (and it’s only a hunch) is that city leaders in Kerrville and county leaders in Kerr County had WEA alerts on their phones deactivated, were not using NOAA Weather Radios and were depending on “X” to get their warning info. SM is a very bad method to obtain critical life saving info.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.
