Hard to overstate what a debt of gratitude this city owes Commissioner Hardesty, on so many fronts

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

The Democratic Party needs to get out of this woman's way.

Fyi for folks in Portland, OR - if you think you see ICE and/or anyone you know is detained, call the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition hotline: 1-888-622-1510. It’s answered every day until about 8pm!

Absolute asshat
