Translation: "Let them eat cake" apnews.com/article/trum...

Wanting more babies is one thing, cutting social services is another. I see these two things as mutually exclusive. Seems to me an increasing population for a country sliding into a callous indifference for civil liberties sets the stage for nothing good. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

Two headlines from the NYT. One answers the other: "Law Firms Made Deals With Trump. Now He Wants More From Them" "Why Harvard Decided to Fight the Trump Administration" www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...

A typical southern republican doing the hard work and reaping the payoff. Oops, just read that as "typical MAGAt republican". And thanks to Massa Trump, who cares if she pays the taxes on her filthy lucre? Not this government. apnews.com/article/gree...

As my good friend Forrest Gump says, "Evil is as evil does". A fine example of a foul soul, or which there appears to be many. But not most; FU MAGAts, the shelves will eventually be restocked: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/u...

I don't have much but I have some. Should Abrego Garcia and family decide to sue I will gladly contribute for the lawyer.

I dearly appreciate Rep. Jasmine Crockett (one of the few excuses for Texas). She'll have to revise her observation of "MTG as a Bleach Blonde, Bad Built, Butch Body". Have to work in "piggy greedhead". A true member of the MAGA team (MAGAts). apnews.com/article/gree...

So very proud to be a citizen of the Pacific Northwest. While the MAGAts try, we fight back. Thank you Governor Kotek. www.koin.com/news/oregon/...

Ellis is a grand example of the courage, patriotism and conscious that elevates us. A combat veteran facing the actions of dangerous idiots that have done little to nothing for our nation. Donating to The Equality Legal Action Fund today. Thank you Jo Ellis! equalityactionfund.org

O dear lord! They're overdosing their children on Vitamin A! Are these people out of bleach? Fluorescent light hard to shine on the liver? Remember, MAGAts: ivermectin is best administered via the rectum. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/25/h...

A typical Republican. Roughly translated: "eff-u, American -and especially South Dakota- taxpayers. Suckers."

Is it the Musk/MAGAt belief that people with food insecurity make for a more efficient government? If a MAGAt government can't help feed people, what's the point? www.kptv.com/2025/03/28/o...

Sure, they're Satans Little Angels, sowing distrust and division with lies. Sure, they enjoy inflicting suffering on their perceived enemies (a.k.a. Americans). But let us not forget the threat of their astounding incompetence.

Do NOT take the bait Trump is tossing out right now. Stay on Signalgate.

👌

Actual Trump Derangement Syndrome: Believing the most ludicrous lies put forth by Putin's Puppet. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Measles has fallout, and not always reported is the effect of a measles infection on the fetus. On this as with so much else today, I'd like to see the reactions as MAGAts, christian nationalists and other assorted fools face facts (as if they could). apnews.com/article/meas...

I do not appreciate the Dems who voted with MAGA and their masters. It should be noted that no senator from the Pacific Northwest were a part of this shameful crumble of courage. www.newsweek.com/full-list-de...

In this instance I'm fine with it. Thank god I'm not a politician, especially one such as this. I wouldn't know what to do without a spine.

I was (and will be) an elections worker. There is no threat to the integrity of Oregon's elections -- other than the interference from the MAGAts. 1) What is the need? (the DMV was a tech error, not fraud), 2) How much $$ to set up these reports? Fiscally responsible? www.kptv.com/2025/03/12/o...

Interesting: an old-guard republican with the ability to see -and provide- insight. This time. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/o...

Kool-Aid has no nutritional value: The MAGAts who voted for the barking yam believed the economy was in bad, bad shape. Prior to this current idiocy the U.S. economy was ranked as healthy, even vigorous. Once the economy has tanked into a recession, will the MAGAts think everything's just swell?

"Only fools or kremlin tools" is a nice little rhyme that benefits from being the truth.

Have to wonder what percentage of the MAGAts can afford one?

And very much along these lines: I've never been screwed over, assaulted by Black people, the ones so many fear. No, when I've been screwed over (more than a few times) it has been by a white guy.

So sorry to have to acknowledge the cowardly Democrats. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Voting to censure? SHAME! thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Cadet Bonespurs strikes again! www.cnn.com/2020/09/05/p...

True here in Portland!

Here in Portland we give a sh*t. How about you and your town?

On my way!

Epiphany! Nationalist christians measure their success by the misery of others, and gauge their self-worth by how many of the 10 Commandments they've violated. Or so it seems.

Again, NW Oregon is where I belong. It helps that both Wyden and Merkley are stand-up guys. How did yours do? www.lcv.org/congressiona...
