ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety.

My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

NEW: Mr. Abrego's lawyers believe that the lies DOJ told in the civil case warrant immediate dismissal in his criminal case. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/more-evide...
More Evidence Submitted to Dismiss the Charges Against Kilmar Abrego
Friday night, we learned that the DOJ lied about the door being closed to Costa Rica. Mr. Abrego's lawyers feel that's enough to immediately dismiss on vindictive and selective prosecution grounds.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

Everyone deserves to speak against injustice. Who benefits when those in power vilify protestors? Degrading groups only divides us. Let's stand strong together for marginalized voices. #TruthBrigade

"Federal agents fired a pepper round that struck the pastor of the College Heights United Church of Christ. The impact caked his face in orange powder...

“I’m in a lot of pain,” the pastor texted from the emergency room, “He clearly was aiming for the face.”

Trump says he now wants to use revenue from his tariffs to bail out American farmers — who are struggling because of the trade war sparked by his tariffs.

If this sounds familiar, it's because the same thing happened in Trump's first term. https://youtu.be/AfVGUiet39E?feature=shared

As a resident of the "greater Portland metro area," I'm concerned both for our city and for what may be in store for our nation. I'm gratified that my @wyden.senate.gov is doing everything he can to help protect our state, and by extension, our country: bsky.app/profile/wyde...
Trump is launching an authoritarian takeover of Portland hoping to provoke conflict in my hometown. I urge Oregonians to reject Trump’s attempt to incite violence in what we know is a vibrant and peaceful city. I will do everything in my power to protect the people in our state.

When it became obvious that resistance in Chicago would be both strong and peaceful, Trump moved on to Portland, hoping he could provoke unrest and escalate his fascist crackdown.

Trump’s Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth announced on Thursday that the 20 U.S. Army soldiers awarded the Medal of Honor, for their participation in the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre, may keep them.

This is nothing more than a disgraceful celebration of the Native American Genocide.

Three rural clinics in Virginia are already closing this year as a direct result of Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill.

Hundreds of rural hospitals and clinics are at risk due to the bill’s devastating cuts to Medicaid – all to pay for massive tax cuts for the rich.

Priorities.
