I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
NEW: ICE tackled + arrested Juanita Avila, an Oregon shop owner who is a legal permanent resident and had her green card in her pocket.
When she asked through sobs why they didn't believe her, one masked agent replied: βBecause they lie all the time.β
Video + interview with her and her daughter:
Surely this is not shocking, but Rogan had most of the big anti-trans scientists that my reporting found to be in the Epstein files on his podcast.
Krauss even tried to connect Epstein to Rogan at one point.
Great reporting and a good opportunity to reup for the public that my office has produced a series of reports, documents and letters that makes the economic case for why it's such a crucial program, while debunking claims or intimations that the tax was driving people out of the county.
amber glenn being asked about her opinions on heated rivalry and the first thing she says is "i want yuri heated rivalry" she's the realest to ever do it
DID YOU KNOW that the City of Portland extracts $10 million a year from downtown property owners in order to partially subsidize the cityβs most active lobbying org?
Honestly I'm going into that rotation silent and seeing who pops first, also I wanna see mouse light up
Two screenshots against a background of evergreen needles dripping with rain. The first is a map of the US showing COVID transmission, with states colored pale yellow to maroon depending on severity. Oregon is pale yellow, which means βVery Lowβ. Text warns that this data is based off February 14th. The second screenshot is text that reads, β63% of Oregon community wastewater treatment centers were positive for SARS-CoV-2 on the most recent sample.β
Itβs Wastewater Wednesday! How are COVID levels? Weβre using two sources to help us keep track of the country and our state of Oregon.
Thank you to @michael-hoerger.bsky.social for the map and graph, and OHA for continuing to track data coming from our wastewater treatment centers!
Happy Kristi Noem Getting Fired Day!

No, they should channel their anger into getting challengers lined up to primary incumbents who refuse to fight like our futures arenβt on the line.
Recently donated to the NSLU layoff fund. The week after they implemented wage increases, New Seasons laid off a bunch of workers. This will hopefully help them a bit. New Seasons continues to be scummy.

I'm a classy guy Newsom you're gonna need to do more than that to get a shred of pro-Palestine kudos from me.
BDS bill in California, protect trans people, and stop persecuting homeless people and we can talk.
One of the architects of the bill, Senator Kate Lieber, acknowledged anger from opposing voices. She said folks should channel that into helping defeat the "no gas tax" ballot measure, which blames for creating ODOT's $288 million budget hole.

while pushing through this disgrace of an amendment, senator lieber admonished her republican colleagues and then immediately promised to work with them next year on a bipartisan transportation package. embarrassing performance at every level from legislature dems
Whither the popularists
This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

perfect representation of the vicious asininity of our persecution and the banal mechanisms of its implementation: these regular-ass people, the staff at the dmv, dutifully inflicting whatever absurd degradation they're told, no matter how blatantly, cruelly pointless. would you do that? will you?
time for the kotek campaign to do a serious course correction
Per Cassie Wilson email, SB 1586 (the bill that would make 1700 acres of Wash Co farmland available for development for industry and data centers) is DEAD
The bill also doesnβt touch the millions of dollars ODOT intends to use for bonding to pay for another $160 million allocation towards the doomed, $2 billion Rose Quarter Freeway Expansion.
These cuts to Safe Routes were a deliberate political choice.
And I don't just mean he didn't write about it in the NYT (which of course he didn't until that July piece about the election) I mean he didn't talk about Palestine he didn't post anything if you were following him it's like it wasn't happening
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
It's really weird watching a Jamelle Bouie discourse that doesn't mention the original Jamelle Bouie shit which is that after October 7th he just shut the fuck up about Palestine until 2024 when mainstream Democrats started saying it was ok to talk about
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
people love to say "you should read conservative opinion pieces too" and every conservative opinion piece is like "corporations should have the right to vote but minorities shouldn't. source: I made it up"
Minnesota Rep. Angie Craig, who is running for U.S. Senate, says she regrets her vote on the Laken Riley Act.
"These past few months β and that regret β have only strengthened my resolve to stand up to the Trump administrationβs cruel immigration policies," Craig writes.
rep angie craig, running for US senate, spoke to UMN student dems in last night and finally had to address her vote in favor of the laken riley act! she was asked if she regretted it, or if her opinion had changed, and she said NO
even after all the terror ICE brought to MN!
Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller. First panel, Nancy talking to a logger sawing a tree and pointing to a carved piece of trunk. Nancy: Can I have that piece? My boy friend carved it. Logger: Sure. Second panel, Nancy is watching the log burn in the fire place. Nancy: I'm mad at him.
Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.
pundit brain among regular people is a scourge.
