Portland Pride Month rules

I agree. They are trying to start a conflict. They will continue to make more violent arrests of the most vulnerable until we react w/violence and then he will declare martial law.

it's so chilling how censorship of atrocities is now automated

Every one of these covid-revisionism pieces consists of people lying to your face about events that you remember www.persuasion.community/p/frances-le...

Fairly sure a bunch of petty bourgeoise business owners who got told to close their businesses for a week and the people they donate to are all responsible for trying to rewrite history on what happened during COVID.

Dozens of protesters, many in wheelchairs, protested proposed cuts to Medicaid during a congressional hearing.⁠ ⁠ The #BigBadBill will reduce Medicaid spending by $625 billion over 10 years & leave millions uninsured, ☎️ your Senators & say “Hell no!” 202-224-3121

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer. Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer. We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is. It will never reach you.

To elaborate on this, I’ve seen a trend of people just refusing to consider the veracity of historical media whatsoever; invoking the existence GenAI as a reason for why they can casually discard any media at all as untrustworthy, without attempting any kind of verification of the media

"Most everybody knew Elon was exaggerating what he could do," said Rep. Moore of Utah. If everyone on Capitol Hill was aware that Elon was exaggerating, why didn’t GOP members speak up? We do not need leaders who are afraid to speak honestly in front of the camera. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

A father screams for his child from a tiny interview room within a basement waiting room inside LA federal building. The space is not a holding area. No food. No water. No diapers. Those initially detained include a 2-year-old US citizen and a woman with high-risk pregnancy.

As best I can tell, the only source here that claims Musk physically assaulted Bessent (the yelling has been widely reported) is Steve Bannon, which means it should be taken with an entire salt mine's worth of salt. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Calling 911 on masked men in unmarked vehicles running around with firearms sounds like the exactly right the thing to do.

People who say they cannot understand the cult of Trump simply need to look at the cult of Cuomo. Mirror images.

Former FBI agent Mike Feinberg is set to join @lawfaremedia.org under our Public Service Fellowship program, which offers fellowship opportunities for departing national security officials and government attorneys. givebutter.com/f7fpQk/annab...

Veteran FBI agent resigns after being told to expect to be demoted. His offense? Being friends with a Trump critic. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/05/u...

So interesting that @theguardian.com covers these stories but US news media takes a pass? Like US readers wouldn't want to know the new Gestapo was organizing and training in their communities, supported by the Kremlin no less? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Awww you guys - the Acting Director of ICE is really upset that we keep accurately refering them the American Gestapo and calling out their kidnappings. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

I said healthcare is a human right and now Elon Musk is posting about “suicidal empathy” at 3 am:

Reagan Was Wrong: Government Can Be Great, Actually www.commondreams.org/opinion/gove...

If you see a genocide paid for by the American government and perpetrated by a military that has 23,000 American citizens in it using weapons manufactured by the American military industrial complex as "not our problem" because the victims are Palestinians, you don't actually understand fascism.

I’m 25% Scottish and proud (Left arm, nose and heightened ability to spot an idiot)

Why did your police help ICE then?

I’ve said it before but it is embarrassing that so many intellectuals spent years in small factional battles over the propriety of calling this fascism.

I/my dept used to be in charge of all communications for our boat, and I held a TS-SBI security clearance and was granted the highest level of trust. So these stories make me scream out loud w rage and pain; this is SO very wrong, and heads SHOULD roll! But won't, bcz they're DOGE bro's!

you know who else are people with families???

It's funny that Fender's Jaguar line was originally supposed to be their budget line, but then inflation got them to create the Squier line, and *now* they have a new even cheaper and worse QC line with the Squier Debut.

Bondi DOJ has a problem. On left: DOJ Indictment and Detention Memo allege Abrego Garcia lied to officer by not revealing he was coming from Texas On right: DHS Referral Report: "Subject stated he was driving 'three days ago' (11/27/2022) from Houston, TX to Temple Hills, MD (via St Louis, MO)"

Abrego Garcia could ask for a bail hearing to cross examine the government on this pretty basic discrepancy. Suggests a real rush to charge in order to have a political face-saving way to bring him back. Of course, legally his due process rights were already violated, per the Supreme Court.

TRUMP: "I'm banning people in other countries from coming to the United States. So there!" PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES: "Who said we wanted to go to your shithole country? Thanks to you, it's now a scary, extrajudicial mess. Hard pass!"

Since Kash Patel almost certainly knows if Donald Trump is in the Epstein Files, his refusal to simply say "Elon Musk is wrong" is rather telling.

It is very telling that the juvenile catfight between Donald Trump and Elon Musk isn't a disagreement over how to make America great again. It's all about THEM. Because that is the only thing they ever really cared about--themselves.

In 1964, a White Christian Nationalist named Dallas "Rocky" Roquemore who trained young fascists to be guerrilla fighters against the "internal Communist enemy" thot it would be a funny "prank" to surprise his brother-in-law by pretending to be a home intruder. His brother-in-law shot & killed him.

30 telecoms masts AND ~15 various electrical grid units have been sabotaged last months in south-east Sweden. The sabotages are concentrated along highway E22, ie one of the main routes needed to reinforce Gotland in case of conflict. Ports are along this route, with the main one in the middle.

We will not negotiate with the armed terrorists in uniforms.

Political reporters across the nation sigh with relief that they no longer have to cover the fact Trump is a pedophile now that Musk has deleted the tweet.

Very good news 🔥🔥🔥🔥 As a result of a Ukrainian kamikaze drone strike, the Lukoil oil refinery located in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, was completely destroyed. - Visioner

Georgia peeps have lots of events happening outside of the big No Kings rally in Atlanta. I love the names of some of these events in smaller towns like Valdosta, Statesboro, McDonough, and Woodstock. The link to see more locations and RSVP in the comment

"These are real people with real families" cool when they come home do they tell the kids about how they busted up an elementary school graduation that day
