@sanders.senate.gov: "Trump is a pathological liar. He will say anything at any time to serve his own purposes... He says he's for affordability but he gives tax breaks to the rich, sees healthcare costs soar, groceries soar, gas prices soar, etc."

Portland ICE facility behind me. No agents came out during the protest. I hope they at least saw my sign from their windows!

Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Have you met with any citizens arrested and detained by DHS?

Noem: *dodges*

Blumenthal: I’d like to introduce you to three individuals who were wrongfully arrested by your department.

Detained citizens: *stand*

Blumenthal: U.S. citizens shouldn't be arrested.

President Trump was supposed to be talking about the war he's started in Iran that's already claimed the lives of four service members. Instead he's talking about ballrooms and curtains.

It's clear he can't be bothered with the safety of our troops.

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

We love our Ford Mustang Mach-e. Have had it for three years now. Not as affordable as the Ioniq 5 but not as expensive as the BMW either.

Skis? Check. Poles? Check. Knitting needles? Naturally A number of Olympic athletes have turned to knitting during the heat of the Games, including Ben Ogden, who this week became the most decorated American male Olympic cross-country skier.

NEW: As expected, SCOTUS invalidates tariffs. Billionaires don’t like it when you mess with the markets. Alito, Thomas, and Kavanaugh dissent. Importers will now get refunds on costs they’ve already passed on to us, making the rich even richer.

Your link is not the same as the account in the post. @the-downballot.com is the right one.

Trump has suffered major losses recently β€” in both federal courts and the court of public opinion.

It's why he lashes out at the media, spreads lies, attacks his political enemies, and tries to rig elections.

These are the actions of a tyrant with his back against the wall.

Be warned.

I thought so as I saw the same photo on FB. I didn't read your post right. But yeah, I agree Diane is doing great.

If either of you are in OR I’m happy to help out sometime. I’ve been knitting for a couple of years now and have made cardigans, sweaters, hats, and shawls.

That looks good! I like to use what is called a cable cast on but long tail is good when you are just starting out and are only doing a small row of stitches.

#GoodNews: Portland is upholding its land-use violation against the South Macadam ICE facility.
The city found detainees were held overnight
or beyond the 12-hour limit at least 25 times.
ICE must fix it by March 16β€”or face monthly fines and a lien.
Accountability matters.
