FINALLY!
"People talk about tariffs as a ONE TIME effect-but only if you hit the whole thing at once. It's a multi-time effect if you take that price & migrate it into prices over 18mos.

That means prices KEEP GOING UP month after month"
-Gary Cohen, Vice-Chairman IBM

KAINE: Were you instructed by the secretary of HHS to not speak to senators?

MONAREZ: I was instructed to not speak directly to senators

KAINE: So Senate-confirmed CDC director instructed not to speak to senators

Thanks, Trump: ICE Just Gassed a Public School Into Submission Portland charter school faced fallout from chemical munitions federal riot cops fired at ICE protesters

Portland was the testing ground for masked men in plain clothes disappearing people into unmarked cards during his first regime and outrageous chemical assault on peaceful protestors continues still. This is recently. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Sorry to drop my ladylike demeanor, but this is f*cking sick and repulsive.

Portland Oregon is with you all the way Chicago 💙

Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next.

This is what dictatorship looks like.

A behind-the-scenes look at what may be driving down Portland's gun violence Despite a new report indicating a decline in homicides and other violent crimes in Portland this year, community organizations say there's more work to be done.

Community organizations like Love is Stronger GV is working to disrupt and prevent gun violence. A recent report shows that Portland experienced a 51% decrease in homicides and a decline in other violent crimes this year. katu.com/news/local/a...

50 times!!! Job growth under Democratic presidents is 50 times higher than under Republican presidents!!

We are very far off the cliff here folks. 🇺🇸

Never let Chief Justice Roberts live this down. The demolished rubble of the republic is buried at his feet.

You are living through the unthinkable: the president of the United States using the military to seize domestic power. The greatest crisis of executive power in American history, at the hands of the worst, most corrupt, and most unfit president in American history.

The military is not a police force, and should never be deployed in American communities against their will. That the President doesn't understand this (or simply doesn't care) shows just how grossly unfit for office he is.

NEW: Jack Smith’s lawyers write to the Office of Special Counsel to say that they’ve read news reports about an investigation into Jack Smith, but no one has actually reached out. “The predicate for this investigation is imaginary and unfounded.” 1/

"For those people out there who ... say, 'Well, I just don't like those people either' ... You could be next. ... This is not about any one individual, this is about our rights as Americans, and our right to have a justice system where choices about prosecuting are made without fear or favor."

Paxton tells Texas schools to follow Ten Commandments law despite court ruling Attorney General Ken Paxton's guidance comes days after U.S. District Judge Fred Biery sided with 16 families who sued their school districts to stop the law from going into effect.

My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery."

Congratulations @taylorswift.com.br and @traviskelce.bsky.social on your engagement.

Now, onto other matters. I am still waiting for the release of the EPSTEIN files.

ICE tried to deport Kilmar Ábrego García to Uganda — a country he has zero ties to.
U.S. law requires deportation to a nation of citizenship or residence. Uganda is neither. This isn’t immigration policy — it’s ILLEGAL, authoritarian, police-state abuse of power.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf.

Turning the military on citizens.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

The thing people point to as "crime in cities" is mostly visible poverty on the streets. The way to solve this is housing, not cops. This is a true thing Democrats can talk about and solve w/o giving air the bs crime narrative.

the core issue here is that crime rates are down exponentially from where they were just a few decades ago:

you’re asking Democrats to make “effective plans to deal with crime” that *largely only exists in the deluded minds of brainwashed MAGAs, most of whom don’t live in cities*

This made me laugh, thank you. & there is no shortage of $hit to talk about;) can end up I being a very lengthy conversation

This should be a headline in every newspaper and on every local channel in the Portland region. F'ing awful.

I moved to Portland in 1997, when summer temps in July were in the low 70's. No one had AC. Now you need to have AC or you can die of heat stroke.

Good morning everyone

She tried to tell America

Portland Grade School Says It Was Forced to Move Due to 'Unsafe' Tear Gas, Munitions from Neighboring ICE Facility "We have been impacted mostly by chemical weapons," an administrator for the grade school said this week amid its forced relocation due to ICE agents' use of dangerous munitions

An elementary K-8 school in Portland is having to do an emergency move to a different facility because of tear gas from ICE, and finding munitions on their playground. 2 weeks they’ve been in school.

At what point will it be enough?

And at what point is this too much?

What is it called when government owns the means of production again?
