YouTube video by Oregon Public Broadcasting Federal officers escalate tactics against ICE protesters in Portland

youtube.com/watch?v=NQtm... 3 min report from OPB in Portland…love the classic Portland protester guy with a bullhorn using vicious language like “What is your issue?”

Portland saw first hand some of the biggest BLM protests. That may have inspired the Portland folks this year.

Portland people were gassed in the streets all Saturday night. Bravo.

I think this is the truth. Not sure todays Americans are willing take chances and risks of an intense strike and protest that goes on for days or longer. I hope America proves me wrong. We need more energy. BLM brought that energy. Maybe they were more motivated than the rest of us.

Where have all the backyard birds gone? Many common bird populations are declining, leaving not only quieter forests but emptier backyards across North America.

Cool. Hot rock.

A new volcanic eruption in Iceland fills a small valley with lava. Bright orange lava spills out of a vent at the center of the photo and spreads out toward the camera (a drone above the landscape). In the background are numerous tall, rocky hills, the tops of which are illuminated by the just-setting Sun.

E Pluribus Dumdum

It’s ok to applaud, really.
If you want to….if you don’t you can even walk out.
There ends your career.”
-Dictator Trump

I watched the Navy/Air Force game yesterday, and they are still running official ads toting the diversity of today's military. In fact, most of the ads are very deliberately diverse even if the main selling point is "the Army also needs geek skills, we have amazing technology you can play with".

a witch is standing in front of a window and says " fly my pretties " ALT: a witch is standing in front of a window and says " fly my pretties "

Hegseth to the troops

White supremacists hate diversity so much they're always marrying their cousins... incest: guaranteed minimum diversity.

Cadets in the audience receive a small stipend/pay. They are not being paid. Their professors- both civilian and military are not being paid. Those that maintain the grounds, prepare the food: not being paid. But the two people standing in front of them, are being paid. To spew nonsense.

They are all lusting for power.... greed.

Donnie the Divider is his boss... so...

same speech different day... if he really believes strength is unity why is he dividing us.

i wonder if all those young white men that voted for trump are getting nervous now

when do the armed forces rebel against this dumbass fratboy?

He’s a racist through and through.
All non-whites must have felt trampled on and threatened.

Coming from a DEI hire this is rich.
