'No more walking on eggshells': Hegseth vows to lift guardrails on military hazing, harassment ABC News obtained memos filed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that showed he is reviewing military policies on hazing and harrasment.

Thank you to the hundreds of military commanders summoned to Fat Man and Little Boy's psychotic Ted Talk for not giving Pete and Trump the applause they so desperately wanted. Sadly, these two idiots with fundamental, immature misunderstandings about the military are also the ones who issue orders.

ICE TV Commercial Fails To Attract Any Police Officers A spokesperson for the Denver Police Department told CBS News Colorado that the ad campaign has had no effect on staffing levels.

Don't forget: "I was following orders" isn't a defense, it's a confession. While responsible law enforcement and military training installs mental roadblocks and self-awareness, recent ICE ads make the recruitment in The Parallax View seem subtle. Trump may pardon Kristi Noem. He won't pardon you.

Federal agents knock down elderly couple during Portland protest An 84-year-old said she sustained a concussion and was hit with a projectile after she and her husband, a Vietnam vet, were knocked down by federal officers.

"It was totally unprovoked. It was people like us, our neighbors. There were families, there were several veterans. With no warning the feds charged into us, knocked us down and sprayed us. I was hit in the head with a projectile."

‘That’s Enough To Call Up The National Guard?’ Trump-Appointed Judge Skeptical Of Portland Occupation U.S District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, was brimming with skepticism...

"Really? A social media post is going to count as a presidential determination you can send the National Guard into cities? Is that really what I should rely on as a determination?" No decision yet, but predictable details from Friday's hearing over the deployment of the National Guard to Portland.

BLM timber sales in Oregon and Washington are now closed to the public An environmental advocate in Southern Oregon said a new policy excluding the public from federal timber auctions hurts accountability and transparency.

With the public now effectively, and illegally, shut out of timber sale meetings, as illustrated by KS Wild's George Sexton at a BLM Medford meeting, everyone in our regional conservation space must realize direct action to preserve our forests will be the inevitable, unifying demand on all of us.

What MAGA means to Americans Ten years after Donald Trump launched the Make America Great Again movement, a poll offers some insight into what the slogan means to Republicans and Democrats.

It's not difficult. It's a cult.

Trump’s Argentina bailout sparks fury among farmers, Republicans The proposal to provide Argentina billions in financial support has drawn scrutiny from farmers and their Congressional allies.

If Republicans are "America First," why are they bailing out Argentina's healthcare system but not our own? Would some reporter start asking these questions? How about asking Republican elected officials, "Do you support the partisan messaging on government websites in defiance of the Hatch Act?"

Trump and Republicans dealt polling blow in government shutdown standoff More voters blame Republicans than Democrats in Congress for the government shutdown, according to a new poll.

Please, no more Hakeem Jeffries Tweets. Democrats must continually, nonstop, press home the obvious, self-evident point that demands constant repetition: Republicans are in charge of the federal government — the ENTIRETY of it. Therefore it's a Republican Shutdown. See how easy that was? Repeat it.

Trump administration gave Oregon governor 12-hour deadline to mobilize troops, memo shows Records released Wednesday offer more context to the national guard deployment being planned in Portland.

Addled with dementia and cognitive failure, Trump is delusional. He could get on his Qatari bribe jet and fly out to Portland to see for himself how nothing is going on, but he doesn't want to see reality. None of them do, especially Stephen Miller — now the de facto dictator of the United States.

Please share this with your networks. Americans need to know NOTHING IS GOING ON IN PORTLAND except whatever Stephen Miler is whispering into Trump's ear. They're manufacturing a crisis. They're LYING. Thirty percent of the country may cheer this, but the rest are getting fed up with Trump's chaos.

Apparently military brass are now referring to Trump and Pete Hegseth as Fat Man and Little Boy after their weird, immature, ultimately despotic waste of time on Tuesday. If the shoe fits. But it's still terrifying these impulse-driven assholes have access to nuclear weapons.

Take a good look. This is the homepage of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development lying to you on your dime, blaming the "radical left" for the federal government shutdown despite the fact Republicans control THE ENTIRE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. This goes beyond autocracy straight to 1984.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." Get familiar with it.

Only a full-on federal invasion and occupation by Dementia Don, our agitated, sundowning president, can save our beloved community from our complete lack of civil unrest or riots, capable police department, great coffee, restaurants, access to the outdoors, desirable quality of life — and brunch.

Cheering Comey indictment, Trump predicts ‘there will be others’ The president ripped his former FBI director as a liar while suggesting more of his political opponents could face charges.

Weaponizing the Justice Department to persecute perceived enemies, complaining about late-night comedians, bitching about escalators not working, and threatening to invade American cities. What a crybaby. The goddamn President of the United States is such an embarrassment and a disgrace, every day.

Sinclair Will Preempt Jimmy Kimmel’s Show When It Returns To ABC But Says Discussions Are Ongoing With Network The station group says that it will run local news programming

KATU-TV in Portland used to be owned by Fisher, which was acquired by Sinclair in 2013. Sinclair says they won't run Kimmel on their ABC affiliates, including KATU, so we're boycotting EVERY ADVERTISER on KATU during that timeslot. Way to push people away even further from broadcast TV dummies.

Trump aide Homan accepted $50,000 in bribery sting operation, sources say In the alleged scheme, Homan promised immigration-related government contracts when he joined the Trump administration in exchange for the money.

We better send this guy to a secret prison in El Salvador or Uganda until we can figure out on what's going on. No need for due process, after all, Trump "border czar" and ICE chieftain Tom Homan is ON CAMERA TAKING A $50,000 CASH BRIBE from an undercover FBI agent in a Justice Dept. investigation.

City to File Land Use Violation Against South Portland ICE Facility The city of Portland on Wednesday announced that it is planning to file a land use violation against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Southwest Portland this week.

"Following an investigation, the City of Portland will send a violation notice this Friday for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in South Portland, launching a process to determine whether the site's detention practices comply with the conditions of the site's land use approval."

Disney Faces Protests for Benching Jimmy Kimmel Amid Pressure From FCC, Station Affiliates and Trump Disney faced the consequences of its decision to yank 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' off the air as protestors gathered Thursday in Burbank and New York.

Disney parks are expensive, overrated hellscapes, but even if you enjoy them, you can't go to them anymore or their stupid cruises. If Bob Iger wants to cut deals with Nazis for an America where a comedian can no longer tell jokes that hurt the president's feelings, f___ him, he can eat his cash.

Vance Says ‘Left-Wing Extremism’ Must Be Dismantled After Kirk Death While Hosting Podcast From VP Office Trump has suggested he could announce new investigations into left-wing political groups in the wake of Kirk’s death.

Is there a more unremarkable, useless man than J.D. Vance? A man who has done so little, excelled at so little, and stands for so little but his own ambition. Not even rising to the level of banal, but evil nonetheless. If it weren't for Peter Thiel he'd still be nothing. Go back to Middletown.

Dear Democratic candidates: some free populist advice. Make trust busting a component of your worldview. If you're running for a local seat don't emphasize it over roads or parks, but if you're running for Congress be clear: we're going to split monopolies and companies apart with too much power.

ABC suspends Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show indefinitely over his remarks about Charlie Kirk’s death ABC has suspended Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show indefinitely following comments he made about Charlie Kirk’s killing.

The network that had the guts to produce The Day After 40 years ago is now afraid of Trump. Pathetic. They will use Charlie Kirk's reprehensible murder as cover for anything they don't like. What a cowardly era of panicky billionaires and pusillanimous corporations who don't deserve your business.

Sign of dictatorship: the junta cancels anyone who ridicules them. Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel are going to have a pretty amazing TV network with Jon Stewart when they come together. Who would've guessed it would be the comics, not the "news" media, that would speak truth to Trump's regime.

After Kirk's killing, a growing conservative campaign seeks to get his critics ostracized or fired A campaign by public officials and others on the right has led just days after the conservative activist's death to the firing or punishment of teachers, an Office Depot employee, government workers, ...

The right began building their own weird alternate reality after the election of Obama in 2008, and since then they've built an entire house of cards on a warped, funhouse mirror version of real life. They've convinced themselves of this reality. Now they're trying to force it on everyone else.

Charlie Kirk’s killing, and Trump’s response, are a danger to liberalism The president is seizing a national tragedy to threaten a crackdown on his opposition.

None of this is red vs. blue state, left vs. right, etc. These folks aren't "conservative," they barely believe in democracy anymore. The Constitution, to them, is an impediment to their worldview. Either you believe in the principles of a democratic republic or fascism. Shouldn't be a tough choice.

For the record.

My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers.

I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."

WaPo columnist says she was fired over ‘unacceptable’ Charlie Kirk social media posts ‘The Post accused my measured Bluesky posts of being ‘unacceptable’, ‘gross misconduct’ and of endangering the physical safety of colleagues — charges without evidence, which I reject completely as fa...

What is anyone trying to accomplish with this ridiculous, and downright delusional, whitewashing of Mr. Kirk? The last full-time black columnist at the Washington Post was fired for a post that quotes his own words. So the right wants to lionize him without anyone looking at what he actually said?

Breaking the Cycle of Abusive Media and the National Falling Out So many of our neighbors have been robbed of their ability to discern, to be rational, to evaluate, or see cause and effect due to non-stop exposure to Fox News and rage-fueled, angry right-wing media...

Like the Hearst Press that manufactured America's war with Spain in 1898, right-wing media figures angle for a reaction, not accuracy. They're not reporting "the news" or concerned about being clear — they just want you to tune in tomorrow. And millions of Americans, every day, dutifully comply.
