Local News Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?'

I have been haunted by this statement all day www.kgw.com/article/news...

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

As she should.

Pretty clear that a lot of people jumped the gun on the motive behind Kirk’s assassination. The shooter:

1. Grew up in a Republican family
2. Donated to Donald Trump
3. Loved guns
4. Was steeped in Groyper culture

This isn’t a simple “raging leftist hated Kirk” scenario.

The Murdoch Settlement reminds me of my favorite thing in the family's battle: the transcript of Rupert's attorney trying to undermine son James' ability to run Fox News by pointing out that he didn't understand Fox News' business model was telling viewers what they wanted to hear, not the truth.

you may not know you need this but trust me you need this

Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.

My incredibly smart brother, @billyray5229.bsky.social, interviewed @govpritzker.illinois.gov on Monday night in L.A. Here's a link to their talk in all its glory. At the very end (1:09 approx), Billy gives a speech we all need to hear. TY for protecting democracy: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gmu...

Slavery was bad.

A screenshot of the White House retweeting Energy Secretary Chris Wright saying: We're on it! Thanks to President Trump's leadership, America's energy security is stronger than ever before. This was in response to Trump saying: To The Department of Energy: DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!! And I mean NOW!!!

“We’re on it”? What do you mean “we’re on it”? DRILLING FOR OIL ISN’T SOMETHING THE DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY DOES. EVER. WHAT ARE WE DOING. *throws things*

No.

The squeaky tank was the last straw.

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

It's less annoying to listen to the sound of the saw.

max lays on the floor at his house and looks up at the camera with some side eye. he does not look remotely contrite. maybe just a little sleepy.

This is Max. He snuck out in the middle of the night and walked 5 miles to get a breakfast burrito from a store that gave him one once. They hadn't opened yet when he got there, but Max was found the next morning thanks to his GPS collar patiently waiting outside for his well-earned snack. 14/10

Having the President declare (or at least intimate/suggest?) that CA residents are engaged in "a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the US" by engaging in protest is ... very bad. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!

Helllooooooooooo!

I did not, in my wildest dreams, see the Hunger Games franchise ever being eclipsed by an American government in real life... but if my friends at Lions Gate want to make this sequel, I am in.
