Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

War-ravaged Portland

Our Secretary of Defense almost certainly has more threatening/extremist tattoos and has more credibly been accused of sexual assault than almost all of the people being sent to El Salvador. No exaggeration.

Russia can stop the war any time by leaving Ukrainian land.

Sign of the day…

For folks asking if I'm going to attend Trump's joint address to Congress next week: no. Instead, I'm choosing to hear directly from Oregonians and will be hosting an open-to-all town hall on Facebook live. Oregonians can submit questions in advance here:

As someone who's actually read the Bible, it's getting increasingly hard to fathom what part of the New Testament they could even be grazing over on Sundays that jibes with any of this.

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Spineless Trump sycophant and Putin apologist Marco Rubio terminated U.S. support for restoring Ukraine's energy grid moments after President Zelenskyy was kicked out of the White House.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws

Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds.

Gov Mills: See you in court

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The higher costs from Trump’s tariffs will be felt by the nurse in Philomath and the firefighter in Coos Bay. Not by Trump, Elon Musk or their billionaire buds.

Congratulations, Trump. You’ve gotten Canadians, who normally are just passive-aggressive if we hate you, to be openly rude.

💥 New Zealand knows what’s up!!

It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

Canadian hockey star speaks out:

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, or scream... or all of the above.

For some reason I’m just tempted to stand at a roadside and any time a Tesla drives by me give it the same salute Elon did at the inauguration. (I used to want one too!)
