There are places where Trump, as president, has broad freedom of action. And there are places where Trump, as president, has been able to act unilaterally because the main point of opposition, Congress (and SCOTUS), support his program. (1/?)
That’s hard to find for Trump.
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.
The Oregon Department of Justice submitted multiple videos as trial exhibits that show federal officers using force against what appear to be nonviolent protesters outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building on various nights since June.

OK, I looked it up. Comes from 4chan, of course. “The term "foid" is shorthand for the incel slang term "femoid," which is used to describe women as inhuman, robotic beings.”
Public nudity is a protected form of protest in Oregon. As long as you aren’t being “lewd,” it’s OK.
Amazing Emergency Naked Ride. Here’s the moment thousands of riders rolled through the protests at the ICE facility and cheers erupted. 😮💯
Portland Mayor Wilson says he's interested in taking over the lease of the city's privtely-owned ICE facility -- a suggestion that came from DHS. (And he rejects feds' ask for "free speech zones" where ppl can be penalized for protesting outside of.)
he's going to come after you either way, so you might as well act with integrity
I think you’re showing former Oregon governor Kate Brown in this. Might want to update to the current governor, Tina Kotek.
The question of who gets to tell the story is a critically important one right now. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...
Noem and influencers on roof of ICE facility in Portland, ostensibly looking at a very calm city block on a hot Tuesday afternoon….
In response to an investigation launched by the federal government into the Portland Police Bureau’s policing practices at the local ICE facility, the city attorney shot back, laying out a pattern of excessive force used on protesters, and favoritism toward conservative streamers by federal police.
Even during a shutdown, TSA officers & air traffic controllers are showing up without pay to keep our airports running. While I delivered them donuts, I checked in with travelers to make sure they knew they were visiting a "war zone.”
It's clear Portland is not a military target. It's home.
Federal judge blocks Trump from deploying Oregon National Guard to Portland oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/10/04/f...
Renewal of health subsidies backed by big majorities in poll, including Trump voters oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2025/10/03/r...
Yeah, it’s his regular goons at the ICE Center now, not the Guard. Hard to tell one camo-clad from another. I hope they all enjoy the donuts.
They are not in Portland yet. They’re enjoying some time at the Oregon Coast at beautiful Camp Rilea near Warrenton.
I think this pic is from 2020.
Picture of Multnomah County Sheriff Nicole Morrisey O'Donnell
This is the current sheriff of Multnomah County, Nicole Morrisey O'Donnell. I don’t know if she’s said anything about Trump.
Reese hasn’t been sheriff since 2022. www.mcso.us/about-mcso/m...
It’s pretty notable that this is in The Hill.
I just hope the mayor puts them to work cleaning up litter and removing graffiti. Does the city need any bark chips moved around?
I haven’t closely tracked grocery prices, but visits to the food bank where I volunteer are way up.
You can get The Atlantic, Wired, Rolling Stone, and a whole bunch of other magazines and newspapers with a monthly subscription to Apple News. Miami Herald, San Francisco Chronicle, and many good papers, including maybe your local one.
Thank you! The food bank I volunteer at is really worried about the effects of the SNAP and Medicaid cuts.
As our nation girds for possible Iranian terrorist attacks, this is the person Trump put in charge of terrorism prevention.
22 years old. Recent work experience: landscaping/grocery clerk.
Never worked a day in counter-terrorism. But he’s a BIG Trump fan. So he got the job.
Remember when we had that other building in DC along with the White House? It was full of politicians? Con-something? Anyway.
The President does not have the authority to enter into war without Congressional approval—it is unconstitutional. To begin a war is among the most consequential decisions a nation can make, affecting its troops, civilians, and the world.
Time for some tax bill graphletics!!!
One Big Beautiful Bill Act is policy design at its worst.
In this thread, I show through some charts just how much MORE expensive it is to give a tax break to rich people than it is to provide services to poor ones.
