"They took me out of the car, I don't remember how they threw me to the floor," Avila said. "I remember being on the floor and me screaming, 'Why are you doing this?' I was so scared."

Today in war ravaged Portland, the skies called a temporary cease-fire and held back the rain deluge, allowing citizens to wander about outside wondering how they are going to pay for healthcare. There were no answers reported - only questions.

For folks in Oregon: Julie Parrish — ex-GOP HD37 rep, now with Kell, Alterman & Runstein — routinely tags Asst. AG Harmeet Dhillon in her posts. Salem’s “Mama Grizzly” in full form. I’ll pass on her as counsel.
🚨 Trump admin Asst Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon responded on X to a viral tweet that accused Coca-Cola of discriminating against white people. Libs of TikTok accused Coke of favoring job candidates by first names.

Coca-cola called the accusation “categorically false,” in a statement.

A new study shows rents for low-wage Atlanta tenants are rising *9 times* faster than for wealthy renters.

The affordability crisis is everywhere: housing, healthcare, food, electricity, survival itself.

And the party that won big on "affordability" last week just turned around and surrendered it.
Study: Rents for low-wage Atlantans rose 9 times faster than for high earners
Rents for suburban workforce housing in the metro Atlanta region increased by almost 20%, while rents for luxury units increased by 2%, a study said.
