There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Things that are difficult when you don't speak the local language where you live: getting voicemail or regular mail. Thankfully Google Translate is good enough for most mail but it's still extra steps to try to translate before your language mastery is good enough.

I am the whitest of middle aged ladies and there is so much that I learned as an immigrant in another western country that most people never think of as "the immigrant experience"

I wish that I could just make people understand how absolutely hard in so many big and small ways it is.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

@courtneymilan.com Josephine County has given their local library a 30 day eviction notice. It is important that people know they're attacking libraries like this!

A library in Oregon has been given a 30 day eviction notice because of political garbage. Libraries are vital to communities and people need to know this is happening!

On the Ukraine front:

- Biden announces $2.5 billion in aid (this is the package I’ve been talking about that they were attempting to get out prior to Trump’s inauguration)

- Yellen announces 3.4 billion in budgetary aid.

Huge day!

A peacekeeping role will require Russian approval at UN to end Russia's invasion which UN has declared illegal & which Russia defies.

This makes sense.

I hate the way that a lot of corporate surveys are conducted. My car dealership presses hard for max scores or not putting in the survey at all but sometimes the service is a 7/10 not a 10/10 and there's no way to remedy the problem they've created that lost them 3 points.

Jesus put together a whip out of strips of leather and chased them out of the Temple, stampeding the sheep & cattle, upending the tables of the loan sharks, spilling coins left & right. He told the dove merchants, "Get your things out of here! Stop turning my Father's house into a market."

Literally none of the headlines about the woman burned alive on the subway include the fact that at least one NYPD officer looked on and did nothing. So a reminder:

- Cops feel zero obligation to protect you

- Press can't be trusted to hold cops accountable, they're effectively the police PR wing
