#WarRavagedPortland

Dishonest, unserious, fear mongering, performative bullshit. Perfect for unserious, fearful people who want to be fed bullshit.

Loving New Yorkers instead of hating on us is so refreshing.

😭😭😭

Amy Klobuchar is all of us right here. SMDH 🤦🏽‍♂️

The same thing was being said prior to the election - they’re acting like they can’t lose

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

It’s elon, so ewww & weirdly gross

Soybean Farmer: So now I've got a tariff war that's killing my market. I don't have any money from grain we're sending to other countries for USAID. I mean, I've got a compound problem. I don't know how you plan for next year because we don't know where we're at.

Jack Smith didn't "tap" anyone's phone. He got phone records of potential insurrection suspects via lawful grand jury subpoenas. Just so happens some of those suspected of participating in January 6th were republican members of congress. If you don't want you phone records subpoenaed...

Yes, just so! "Originalism" (distinct from just the historical mode of argument) is a philosophy of language as much as one of law,* & it is deeply wrong about the nature of language

*it's actually bad that a supposed interpretive method is a "philosophy of law" at all

Please be mindful of your Jewish friends today. This isn’t actually the day we Jews are in mourning for the heinous acts of October 7. We are using the Jewish calendar. It happened the morning of Simchat Torah, which is a week from today.

This is what ICE is doing to protesters at Broadview while complaining about the protesters trying to protect themselves

“.. On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart ..”

Words & Phrases We Could Do Without ‘Armed Conflict’? Trump declares war on all of us

We face an open open question as to whether the president, anywhere, anytime he pleases, can execute or round up people he says are terrorists—without due process. That we are even entertaining such a discussion tells you how far Trump has damaged democracy open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

They’re liars—and bad at lying.

These photos of “war-ravaged Portland” are from other countries.

Not Portland.

If it weren’t so dangerous, it would be laughable.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Ms. Martinez’ lawyer says body cam footage shows the agent turned into HER car and yelled “do something bitch” before firing shots.

Trump's invasion This weekend marked a major escalation of his campaign of terror.

"Simply put, one state cannot invade another. This is something so central to American democracy that you don’t even need some sort of legal explanation as to the underpinnings."
