Feels like a situation where -- and look, I'm just spitballing here -- the media could take some reporters and cameras to various parts of Portland and report what they see rather than just do stenography for someone with a long history trying to game the system with lies and exaggeration.

What happens then is anybody's guess.
Immergut states for the record that she is basing new TRO on all of the reasons that were in my prior opinion granting first motion and the same reasons and apply...The deployment of the federalized military is ultra vires and contrary to law, she says.

I have just read all the declarations in the Escobar Molina case here in the District filed on October 3. Absolutely terrifying. Must read if people want to understand what ICE and the Feds are doing in this city.

Now a U.S. president is deploying Texas troops to other states to dominate and intimidate those states, and Abbott is complicit.
Important to keep in mind that while the Republican-state governors sending their National Guard into Democratic states definitely think of this as conquering US, a victory for the Confederacy, those National Guard are probably pissed they are being sent away from jobs/family for this absurd mission
