JP Morgan AND Chase? Oh boy.

Pretty ironic from the guy who was Epstein’s best bud for more than a decade and has a public track record of abuse and harassment of women.

As one does.

honestly one of the most striking things about epstein's emails is the fact that the man, described in many places as "a genius," is essentially subliterate

Hmm, 3 or 4? Had my wedding reception at one 😊

They cleaned up Pusher Street a few years ago, so it’s changed. I think there were hay days several decades ago, but it had gotten too rough.

And I’m an Oregon> Denmark transplant, so I see much less of Oregon and the PNW than I would like. I did those rites as a child and have also spent a considerable amount of time on the coast with family as a kid and an adult. It was the only place we went on vacation. Love it.

Well they are both really stunningly pretty. Cannon Beach is better known because it’s straight out 26, while Pacific City is more off the beaten path, not directly on 101.

The rocks in Pacific City and Cannon Beach are both called “Haystack Rock”, at least colloquially.

Maybe you’re kidding, but this is definitely Pacific City. You can tell by the rock’s shape.

Spanberger will be the first female governor, following 74 men…

Mamdani was the first Muslim mayor after 111 mayors.

Ghazala Hashmi, Virginia’s lieutenant governor-elect, is the first Muslim woman elected to statewide office anywhere in America.

Good times.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

Always good to recognize a fellow Battlestar Galactica fan

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

I have a lot of respect for Dickerson, so this doesn’t surprise me.

Wait until he hears that Reagan didn't trust the Russians.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

So you would be for proportional representation across the board in America?

Great, let’s do it.

He *still* doesn’t know the difference between the two meanings of “asylum” 🙄

Head of the U.S. Military’s Southern Command Is Stepping Down, Officials Say

Whether he jumped or was pushed, this seems like a big deal. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/u...

They are terrified of the No Kings rallies and doing everything they can to discredit them.

If you're on the fence about going, just think of how much it'll piss off these assholes.

lmao. #Portland - the one in America? Why...
did they run out of organic CBD-infused, cage-free oat milk? Are there not enough people posting van life content? A shortage of flannel? What KIND OF emergency requires the National Guard?😂 Morgan Evelyn Cook

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

Also a non-felon, but now I’m just shooting for the stars.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

A Federal Judge Shows How the Courts Should Deal with Trump’s Lies District Court Judge Karin Immergut’s opinion shows that courage in judging doesn’t require rhetoric or defiance—only the quiet insistence that facts still matter.

“Deference” implies giving the president the benefit of the doubt. But where there is no doubt, there can be no benefit. Immergut refused to credit assertions with no basis in the record. She didn’t grandstand or sermonize; she simply applied the law to the facts.

There is no “Secretary of War”.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

Do not be silent.
