I used to like Target, for some things. Now I never go there so some of this is easy to do. I've always disliked Home Depot, so that's easy too. One can't always avoid Amazon, but for a week I certainly can.

Joint Statement from Goodlander, Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Deluzio, and Houlahan

Is it dawn or dusk? Have we found the daylight, or a flashlight? Or is it simply we see a bit better now?

I found this quote:
"In dark ages people are best guided by religion, as in a pitch-black night a blind man is the best guide; he knows the roads and paths better than a man who can see. When daylight comes, however, it is foolish to use blind, old men as guides."
-- Heinrich Heine

ICE detentions at Lane County Jail set a dangerous precedent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement violated the intent of Oregon’s Sanctuary Law with its unauthorized entry into the lobby of the Lane County Jail on Oct. 15 to detain several individuals who w...

Evil is as evil does. This is an example of evil.

Exclusive: The old MSNBC relaunches into a new media world The network, now called MS NOW, is in the midst of its biggest gamble since it launched in 1996.

As someone who "cut the cable" about 20 years ago I found this mildly interesting.

The Trump regime has fired an estimated 70 immigration judges since February. This is happening as immigration courts face a record backlog of cases.

Remember: it was never about legal immigration. It was always about cruelty.

Democrats lean toward digging in on shutdown fight Coming off Tuesday’s election victories, the party wants to keep fighting for health care subsidies.

Hmmm... Is my party finally becoming a chordate? Perhaps developing a backbone? I so hope so! We have to stop fighting fire with gasoline.

Trump’s withholding of SNAP is truly evil. This level of cruelty is beyond comprehension.

Oregon SNAP recipients will receive November benefits today, DHS says People in Oregon who receive SNAP food assistance will receive 100% of their November benefits on Friday, Gov. Tina Kotek announced.

Evil is as evil does.

"The Trump administration on Friday morning asked a federal appeals court to block a judge’s Thursday order to distribute November’s full SNAP benefits amid the shutdown."

America!
We don't have money to buy food ( the money is already set aside and appropriated by Congress) we can't pay Air Traffic Controllers...
But....
We can give $50,000 signing bonuses to Klan members that are willing to kidnap Americans that speak Spanish.

Former US Vice President Dick Cheney dies aged 84 One of the most powerful vice presidents in US history, Cheney played a key role in the decision to invade Iraq in 2003.

About damn time! Worst shadow-president we've ever had!

WooHoo! As of a few minutes ago I finally have a home internet connection. It's slow, but better than the sub-1Mbs connection my phones "hotspot" setting provided. Now I'm up to the speeds of 25 years ago with an ADSL connection, 15Mbs. And it seems much more stable.

Climate disasters in first half of 2025 costliest ever on record, research shows LA wildfires and storms this year cost $101bn, new study by non-profit resurrecting work axed by Trump says

Major disasters caused $101 billion in damages in the first half of 2025 — the costliest six month period on record.

How do we know? A nonprofit had to take over NOAA’s work tracking disasters, which Trump gutted.

What else doesn’t he want us to know?

Very concerning, if true.

Oregon’s Merkley holds Senate floor overnight in Trump protest U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley began speaking on the Senate floor just before 6:30 p.m. Tuesday against what he called President Donald Trump’s authoritarian actions, and remained there Wednesday morning. Aid...

Excellent!

I'm so glad to have moved to Oregon! All should demand their senators and representatives speak out on the floor and affirmatively vote against the fascist agenda Trump's puppeteers are orchestrating against our country!

WTF (What The F***tards!)
Talk about unprecedented attempts at intimidation!

Not what I was referring to, though that is also untrue. If all you want to do is rant and fight I have no interest in a discussion with you.

Ad hominem - Wikipedia

Yes, your personal attack is an ad homenium response to a legitimate opinion brought to the discussion.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_homi...

Ad hominem attacks and sowing division with your potential allies is a poor strategy for change. As to a month, I just saw this a few minutes ago.

The difference being, there were no "Jackbooted Thugs" on the left. That was part of the lies that got us into this mess. The "Right" tries to force everyone to live like them. The "Left" demands everyone make their own decisions on how to live. Public space should support the latter.

That is fallacious. It's not compliance, it's a job assignment. Your job as a citizen in a democracy is not merely to vote, but to follow-up that vote with communication with both the people you voted for(the assignees) and your fellow citizens (your partners who assigned them)

"No Kings" protests draw huge crowds across U.S. More than 2,700 events were planned across 50 states.

I'm happy this morning. More than 7 Million patriots joined in the No Kings protest!

No Kings!
Peaceful Protest!
A demonstration of American values!

They could, but as Christ is not referenced in the Old testament, wouldn't that make them a different form of Jewish?

Thank you for saying this Professor Carroll! It is so true that Christian Nationalists don't act like Christians/ It's almost like they never read the New Testament.

An actual hero!
