Anti-fascist. Leftist. Human rights aren’t debatable.
Intersectional working class politics are the only way.

Only way to break the cycle of devastation and suffering caused by the right is with an actual left-wing Democratic Party (i.e. Bernie, AOC, Tlaib, Etc…)

Gov Kotek: republican voters are not voting for you. They didn’t last time. They won’t this time.
You need democrats and independents. They don’t want this. They want to tax the rich.
You are endangering the entire state by doing the opposite of what people are demanding. Republicans can’t win.

Cutting property taxes for Oregonians affected by wildfires. Canceling planned freeway tolls. Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area. We have to keep going to make life more affordable for Oregonians.

As someone who respects Gov. Kotek & wants to retain the governorship, this is an important take.
Demotivating your campaign's likeliest supporters by opposing a voter-approved initiative saving families $18k/yr in childcare expenses doesn't improve affordability or help your campaign.

I would knock a million doors, fundraise, cartwheel down the middle of my street for a candidate who promised to tax the rich and fully fund schools. I am not even sure I can muster energy to fill in the bubble on my ballot for whatever this is.

Good. Weaponization of the NG should be held criminally accountable if you ask me. How many lives did he affect and/or ruin with these violent acts?
NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![The Government asked this Court to stay the District Court's order. After the response and reply were filed, JUSTICE BARRETT referred the application to the Court. We directed the parties to file supplemental letter briefs on an issue that the District Court had addressed but the parties' initial briefs had not: the meaning of the term "regular forces" in §12406(3). In its supplemental brief, the Government argues that the term refers to civilian law enforcement officers, such as those employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Federal Protective Service.
Respondents, echoing the District Court, maintain that the term refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary.
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under §12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress."
18 U. S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6h7b2i6ttw3l4t7pvbvxdith/bafkreiftbhzwvn3vgwhqsi7k2paizvdw4t26ailljvovso3chqupnmj364@jpeg)

Alito is a such a hypocritical pos.
Very funny to see Alito complain about the court skipping full briefing and oral arguments for a quick shadow docket decision when he has signed onto innumerable orders that pull the exact same tricks and rebuked colleagues who complain about it ... www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

1. New federal rules were released last week banning gender affirming care for youth at hospitals nationwide.
Those rules don't go into effect until public comment, months from now.
But it appears Sec. Kennedy is using an arcane process to try to implement them immediately.
