Portland's famous Unipiper was spotted at the Portland ICE protest where he played his bagpipes in front of Santa, Mr. Potato Head, Garfield and more -- all while surrounded by bubbles. More on how the tone of Portland's protests has shifted: www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/1...

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like if a US exchange student in a foreign country (say, Turkey?) was imprisoned for six weeks because they wrote an op-ed in the student newspaper it would be a huge domestic story and an international incident.

Corporations who donated to Republicans were more likely to get tariff exemptions during Trump's first term. Now, tech companies like Apple are getting major tariff carveouts. Who donated $1M to Trump's inauguration? Apple CEO Tim Cook. It's crony capitalism.
