"Can't make any criticism of Israel without being called antisemitic" Oh, did you call for Netanyahu and his far right cabinet to resign? "No, the other thing" 1/

Helen, you've been calling for an end to the strike from before it started, and each time it's been against the teachers. Stop moving the goalposts. x.com/helenjung/stat…

Breaking News: Israeli officials obtained Hamas’s battle plan more than a year before the Oct. 7 attack but dismissed it as aspirational, documents show. nyti.ms/3N8ILL8

Mayor Wheeler continues to be out of touch with the city, and blames it's problems on remote work. This is the new version of the "Millennials Are Killing Napkins" mentality. koin.com/news/portland/…

Just in case you needed a reminder - Elon is well into his radicalization. This is (one of) the wealthiest men on the planet, spouting full Deep State paranoia. This shit is dangerous. He's incapable of separating reality from delusions.

So after the people of Oregon voted overwhelmingly to decriminalize addiction, y'all are looking to throw folks back into jail again. Brilliant. Combining this with Tina's plan to clearcut forests and wetlands for more high end housing, one might think you're Republicans.

It takes a certain kind of mind to read Alex's original tweet about the homeless dying on the streets and immediately jump to "Yes, we should throw them in jail instead." If you want to help Portlanders, maybe focus on the healing part instead of the hurting part, Rene.

Banning the public use of drugs is nothing more than criminalizing poverty. If I didn't know better, at first glance I'd think this was proposed by Republicans.

As someone both intimately familiar with Arizona strip malls and polls, this was maybe my favorite Christmas gift this year so far. Absolutely priceless. portlandmercury.com/pop-quiz-pdx/2…

For the sake of the Palestinian people and our own standing in the world we must not provide another dollar for the Netanyahu war machine.

Just your quarterly reminder that PPB is still under a federal consent Decree for violating civil rights - but they're trying to get it removed for good behavior. Like this, one assumes.

The image of the police approaching the protestors is haunting. This very mall used to be full of statues of Confederate "heroes", until they were torn down in 2017. As a former Longhorn, seeing it become, yet again, a symbol of suppression is both infuriating and heartbreaking.

Oh damn, they mention the race in this episode! Though I have to agree with @RottenInDenmark - shamefully, I didn't finish #ELDENRING either.

Ok, so this is a blatant infringement on the First Amendment. Sorry to tell you this, Commissioner, but if you don't want to hear the public complain about police brutality, you either need to stop said brutality, or step aside for someone who will.
