Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by βexecutive orderβ a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

Dearest Portlanders,
Pray, enlighten me: what spell has the PDX airport carpet cast upon your hearts? Is it woven with magic? I am but a bewildered out-of-stater, eager to understand this curious affection.

Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people.
Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead.
Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just.
Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.
