@bynum.house.gov This is the ICE you “praised” in your vote this spring. And the one you’ve voted to continue to fund! You said in your town hall this last weekend that you want your legacy to be protecting the children…
This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

ICE is writing secret memos claiming power to invade homes without warrants. They're using children as bait. They're killing.
Congressional Democrats are about to vote to increase their budget by $18 billion.

Hey @bynum.house.gov remember in your town hall this past weekend when you were challenged by several of your constituents and defended your votes to arm and support Israel as they commit a genocide and also kill journalists? Why?

Paging @bynum.house.gov …what more evidence do you need of incompetence and High Crimes & Misdemeanors?
His not being impeached by the end of the business day as a result of this threat is as much a problem as the threat itself. It’s not just Trump that the world has to worry about, it’s a GOP that supports him and Democrats who suck their thumbs and refuse to even discuss pushing to remove him

The public hearing for a proposed re-districting map set forth by Deschutes County Board of Commissioners was jam packed at the county building! By my estimate 90% of the comments were opposed and 10% in favor for the gerrymandered maps. Will our MAGA-leaning commissioner board listen to the voters?

I’ve driven the Kei-class vehicles all over Japan. Would love to be able to legally own her in Oregon (and get rid of all the overiszed trucks that would smash these to bits!)
A bipartisan group of Oregon lawmakers including Sen. Anthony Broadman of Bend is bringing back a bill to make Kei trucks street legal. Supporters say it could help small businesses and working Oregonians.

Really helpful and important listen! As Eli says…Dems are playing both to not lose and also to not win. And, a lot of the times you/they/we end up losing! The party needs to be pushed and since the establishment is so weak and concerned about their image, they can be convinced to grow a spine

‘Pax Silica’ and Pursuit of Greenland Give Shape to Trump’s Imperial AI Ambitions
Trump's efforts to secure critical minerals are part of what experts regard as more nakedly imperialist US foreign and industrial policies.

i was talking with someone in the twin cities about how it’s not even accurate to call them protesters. they’re literally just people protecting their city from TERRORISTS.
Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.
ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

The Founders assumed that Members of Congress would jealously and zealously guard the powers and prerogatives of their branch of government against the grasping of an overweening Executive, and instead we got this supine GOP majority that yearns to lick the boot.
I would like to think the Mad King proclaiming “I will continue to illegally raise taxes on the American people until the NATO alliance collapses” would be the type of statement to cause Congress to act, but I’m not sure there’s any red line the GOP Congress has anymore.
Trump says he'll impose a 10% tariff (rising to 25% in June) on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland, because they've sent people to Greenland, until the US can buy Greenland.

My unsolicited advice for Dems that'll help instead of the centrist, feckless, overpaid corporate consultant BS:
1. Promise to tax the rich
2. Don't support Israel's genocide
3. Criticize ICE & refuse to fund it
4. Don't throw "the woke" under the bus
5. Run on affordability AND accountability
