In Ironic news: Iceland is freaking out about… checks notes…
Ice! 🧊

It’s funny. But there’s truth here.
The Atlantic circulation is in danger of collapse in the next couple of decades due to global warming, as per many new studies… 1/

This lab is key for tracking deadly waves. Its sensors are about to go offline. After NOAA cut funding to the lab that’s been monitoring seismic activity for more than 25 years, nine stations tracking tsunami-causing earthquakes for the agency will go offline by the end of the mo...

Trump is forcing NINE lifesaving tsunami monitoring centers to close by the end of November, just four months after a Pacific-wide tsunami warning. 🧵

When minutes of early warning saves lives, we can't afford to cut corners.

I’m demanding answers about why these funds were denied, and I will continue to push for modernizing and fully funding NOAA’s Tsunami Warning Centers so we’re ready when disaster strikes.

They vote for John Thune because he is tall and white, not because he is smart. Someone is going to have to sit him down and explain that it falls to him to go to the White House and explain to Trump it is time to play the old sick card and resign. Trump is done.

ICE sprays large canister of pepper spray directly into family car—hitting 1 year old baby.

"They were simply shopping at Sam's Club," said man who took video.

"ICE agents drove by and sprayed pepper spray directly inside—where their baby and 16 year old sister sat."

If I'm doing the math correctly, Musk's big pay packet yesterday could have made each of these now-dead people millionaires instead.
He is among the sickest men the world has ever produced.

TACO is NOT building a ballroom.

He is building a bunker.

Booze Allen is not an architecture firm.

It’s a defense contractor.

This is the ad Donald Trump woke up furious about.

Would be a shame if it went viral.

Half of Oregon could see more logging, grazing under federal wildfire bill The Fix Our Forests Act passed out of a Senate committee Tuesday, and now heads to a full vote

Some environmental groups are warning that a federal bill intended to prevent major wildfires could effectively increase logging, cattle grazing and mining on federal lands — which make up half of Oregon’s land base.

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?

📣The Freedom Frogs are multiplying‼️

This is the way Portland 🫡❤️🐸

Portland, Oregon, two blocks from ICE. Perfectly peaceful! It’s been like this for years.

Homeland Security on X: "WATCH: @Sec_Noem addresses President Trump’s cabinet on the work DHS is doing to remove criminal illegal aliens and improve public safety in Chicago, Portland, and across America. https://t.co/NKjGrF59KX" / X WATCH: @Sec_Noem addresses President Trump’s cabinet on the work DHS is doing to remove criminal illegal aliens and improve public safety in Chicago, Portland, and across America. https://t.co/NKjGrF59KX

If you have to say that the people who actually live and work here are lying to justify your version of reality -- that's delusion. We won't stop telling stories of the REAL Portland.

AP: Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar

Children around the world have died because Trump and Musk needlessly destroyed USAID. These are some of their stories.

If this was a no, it would be really easy to say no.

Bondi’s ad hominem attack on Whitehouse is WAY more of an answer than she realizes.

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying any National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon.

The president cannot keep playing whack-a-mole with different states’ Guard units to get around court orders and the rule of law.

What was unlawful yesterday is unlawful today.

Listen for the latest update on today’s developments regarding the president’s unlawful attempts to deploy National Guard troops to Portland.

Two blocks from Ice in the South Waterfront. Crows and Kingfishers are the most you will hear.

All of Southwest Portland is currently impacted by the circling helicopters for hours and we need to sleep! There’s a bunch of elderly and disabled people that live down here that are now impacted far more than the single ICE block.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

Come join me and my fabulous daughter Rebecca Skloot in a book launch for Dancing in the Cosmos: New and Selected Poems and in a talk with OPB's Dave Miller at Powells Books downtown Portland, October 30th!

Yet more of the levers slipping into the hands of the few.

My neighbor in Orlando mentioned this EXACT concern to me last night!

Meet Sergio Gor — Or Should We Say Sergey Goryachev? Trump’s Top Hiring Official May Be a Russian Spy Every day it gets harder to deny the truth I’ve been shouting from the rooftops: Trump has surrounded himself with foreign operatives, oligarch enablers, and compromised loyalists.

It’s because he’s from Russia

‼️‼️

This is maddening and would be a tragic loss for our country and the planet.

In the end, probably just cooler to have Marilyn Monroe sing you Happy Birthday
