Is Portland Burning?
No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

I just got home from shopping in “bombed out” #Portland and I didn’t see one fire, or fight, or any boarded up windows! Just a vibrant colorful city filled with awesome restaurants and stores, all open for business! Even saw some new ones I want to check out!

The U.S. Supreme Court: "ICE can racially profile people it arrests."
Also, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Texas can disenfranchise voters based on race."
Can we all agree that we currently have a white supremacist Supreme Court?

Saying they are “Narco Boats” with zero evidence.
We honestly don’t know if Hegseth is just getting drunk and angry and blowing up random boats in some drunken rage.

Because again. They offer no evidence.
At this point he’s just murdering people.

Holy moly, do people still think the U.S. is an ally of Europe? It is now an officially stated foreign policy goal to undermine the EU and centrist European governments that don't ideologically align with MAGA.
Europeans are waking up this morning to find the new US National Security Strategy (quietly) released. And what it has to say on Europe could not be clearer. On the „stark prospect of civilizations erasure“ for example. 👇

Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff spent five hours with Putin. No State Department. No Secretary of State. No NATO partners. No cameras. They walked in with “peace” talking points and walked out with nothing. There was no real negotiation, no plan. Every serious proposal was rejected.

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it.
Let’s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

Now that SCOTUS has validated gerrymandering for any racist arbitrary reason imaginable—EVERY Blue state Governor needs to redistrict their state to completely eliminate red seats.
This is the MAGA precedent. It is law now. Run with it. Beat MAGAs at their own game. Vote MAGAs out permanently.
