“Riots Raging”: The Misleading Story Fox News Told About Portland Before Trump Sent Troops After reviewing coverage from the network and hours of social media videos that preceded Trump’s decision, ProPublica found that Fox’s portrayal of “Portland rioters” routinely instigating violence was misleading.

NEW: ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.

The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

"We have a need for an enlightened, watchful articulate opposition. We have no need for semi-secret societies who are absolutist, dictatorial and would substitute for a rule of law and reason an indiscriminate assault on the institutions that must be held sacrosanct."

Guard deployment to Portland stays blocked as 9th Circuit considers review of case • Oregon Capital Chronicle The appeals court on Friday paused any order allowing troop deployment until the 29 judges of the court decide if a “full court” review of an earlier decision is warranted.

No National Guard troops can be sent to Portland before Tues. evening, until all judges on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decide whether to review a 2-1 decision made earlier this week that greenlit Trump’s attempted deployment of 200 Oregon Guard. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/10/24/g...

Censorship has no place in a free society — in or out of prisons.

Here in Portland, ICE dragged and slammed to the concrete a blind man; in NYC they're dragging off street vendors. This is nothing new:

Ten million protest in the streets against Trump but ZERO rally for Trump. Please tell us again how Trump legitimately won all 7 battleground states!

Facts!

This is absolutely not surprising.

I, Gavin Newsom, Governor of the State of California, do hereby proclaim October 13, 2025 as Indigenous Peoples’ Day.

California again proclaims this day as Indigenous Peoples’ Day, the seventh formal celebration of the strength of culture and the memory of land that endure for all Indigenous people who now call California home, from those who originate from and maintain deep relationships with these lands and waters, to those who have carried the gifts of their languages, cultures, foods, and families across oceans, borders, and generations. On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we resoundingly cheer the indomitable fortitude, cultural vibrance, and adaptability of Indigenous peoples from across the globe who call this place home, even as their souls resonate with lands and waters of their ancestral homelands. NOW THEREFORE I, GAVIN NEWSOM, Governor of the State of California, do hereby proclaim October 13, 2025 as “Indigenous Peoples’ Day.”

This Indigenous Peoples' Day, California celebrates the contributions, cultural vibrance and adaptability of all Indigenous people who now call California home.

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Trump from deploying federalized National Guard troops into Chicago.

This ruling reinforces what we already knew: It is illegal for the president to use manufactured emergencies to send soldiers into our cities.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Tweet from Alex Tabarrok reads: “Sergio Garcia, celebrated Chef who came to the US before ICE even existed. Deported after 36 years. The picture tells you a lot about the decline of the Republican party.” Attached photo shows Sergio Garcia standing with Laura and George W. Bush outdoors. The photo is signed: “To Sergio Garcia, With best wishes – George & Laura Bush.”

This was never about deporting criminals. It’s about Stephen Miller’s campaign of ethnic cleansing.

As the Trump administration dramatically reshapes the U.S. public education system, ProPublica’s reporters are investigating how these changes affect people across the country.
