Deeply disingenuous for Danny Westneat to say the city has "let hundreds of tiny houses sit empty for years." The issue isn't the structures (a company could build 100,000 of these and it wouldn't mean the city was "letting them sit empty"); it's NIMBYs who don't want shelter near them. Does Danny?
One year in, how’s Portland’s sharp turn on homelessness going?
A new mayor swept into Portland pledging to stand up shelter and get people off the streets. In Seattle we've heard that before. One year in, here's what happened.

It's extremely ironic that the president is threatening Iran over killing protesters there, while gleefully applauding the killing of a protester over here. RIP Good, 86 47.

The government has no problem trying to set up a national voter database, so they can track your vote but they bristle at the idea of a national gun registry

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

Some of the best movies ever made were by Rob Reiner. They made us laugh and think: The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men. And he was a force on screen as well in All in the Family and so many films.

What a tragic loss. Words fail with news like this.

Nothing says racism, cruelty, hatred and weakness combined in one quite like the orange felon removing all free access to National Parks on federal holidays that honor black people whilst giving free access on his own birthday. He should’ve been sent to jail forever.

“…Even if they are able to clean up his mess … elect a supremely sane president next, America will NEVER again be a trusted partner. Because there are enough Americans who would vote for him … (again).

I couldn't even say anything. She was right. The damage this has done is endless…”

This isn't a Supreme Court, it's just six Republican operatives imposing law on the rest of us in order to help Trump and MAGA destroy the Constitution and impose authoritarian rule.
BREAKING: Supreme Court sides with Texas Republicans in fight over congressional map. The new gerrymandered map will be used in the 2026 midterms. The vote is 6–3, with the Republican appointees siding with Texas.

1 TON has ~907K grams. ~1 gram of cocaine can be fatal.

Over 20 yrs, former Honduran Pres Juan Orlando Hernández brought over 500 TONS of cocaine to the U.S. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Trump has pardoned & released him from prison.

While mass murdering fisherman as "narcoterrorists."

Anyone else spend an inordinate amount of time at the Puget Sound VA? I'm here three days a week while my husband undergoes treatment, and there's a guy who waits for me in the lobby so he can walk a few feet behind me and comment on my ass... and I would happily welcome a buddy to chill with!
