Thanks to the Port of Portland for the great tour of PDX! @councilorgreen.bsky.social and I learned more about the Port’s aviation, marine, and industrial operations, and also got to ride in one of the Port’s fire trucks.

Marco Rubio condemning Germany for surveilling the Nazi Afd saying they are popular because the country's "deadly open border policy." Germany retorts that they have leart from their history that rightwing extremism must be stopped..

The Port of Portland is a great partner with the City of Portland, investing in our region and welcoming visitors to our beautiful and recently enhanced Portland International Airport.

10) I joined Councilors Pirtle-Guinney and Smith and our teams on a tour of the airport. It was honestly the most fun tour I've gotten to go on as a City Councilor. I saw the plane that the door fell off of, and I got to shoot the fire hose on a firetruck. The 8-year old boy in me was thrilled.

It Was an Ambush Today marked one of the grimmest days in the history of American diplomacy.

Today was a grim, terrible day for the United States and the cause of democracy. Putin, along with other dictators around the world, can finally look at Trump with confidence and think: one of us.

BY EMAIL Re: United States v. Eric Adams, 24 Cr. 556 (DEH) Mr. Bove, I have received correspondence indicating that I refused your order to move to dismiss the indictment against Eric Adams without prejudice, subject to certain conditions, including the express possibility of reinstatement of the indictment. That is not exactly correct. The U.S. Attorney, Danielle R. Sassoon, never asked me to file such a motion, and I therefore never had an opportunity to refuse. But I am entirely in agreement with her decision not to do so, for the reasons stated in her February 12, 2025 letter to the Attorney General. In short, the first justification for the motion-that Damian Williams's role in the case somehow tainted a valid indictment supported by ample evidence, and pursued under four different U.S. attorneys is so weak as to be transparently pretextual. The second justification is worse. No system of ordered liberty can allow the Government to use the carrot of dismissing charges, or the stick of threatening to bring them again, to induce an elected official to support its policy objectives. There is a tradition in public service of resigning in a last-ditch effort to head off a serious mistake. Some will view the mistake you are committing here in the light of their generally negative views of the new Administration. I do not share those views. I can even understand how a Chief Executive whose background is in business and politics might see the contemplated dismissal-with-leverage as a good, if distasteful, deal. But any assistant U.S. attorney would know much i i red oril, in this ily. wing the perset arthro he Reside is ving to, give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me. Please consider this my resignation. It has been an honor to serve as a prosecutor in the Southern District of New York. Yours truly, Hagan Scotten Assistant United States Att…

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.
