Incredible video from Reddit (too large to upload the screencap). CBP agents attempt to detain a flower vendor and end up getting chased into a vacant lot by a crowd of teenagers. What a bunch of impotent sad sacks.

All of our power structures, from politics to financing to education to the media, are rotten and corrupted, programmed by capitalism to incentivize and reward predation, exploitation, and dehumanization.
It’s not even hidden at this point and it demands wholesale change.

President Trump removed temporary protected status (TPS) for many countries. TPS lets people from other countries live and work in the US. This hurts immigrant families and disabled people. Many people with TPS are healthcare workers, like home health aides. www.mcknightshomecare.com/news/tps-ter...
TPS terminations worsen home care workforce crisis, lawmakers, providers say
More than 100 United States lawmakers protested the administration’s rollback of temporary protected status for numerous foreign countries.

What the Epstein files show is the *solidarity* of many men-across class, race, religion, profession & party affiliation-in the global political project of keeping the boot on women's necks.
People have no problem understanding class solidarity among the rich. Why can't they see gender solidarity?

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

Wild how every single member of the political and business elite went into full drooling fascism the second the prospect of consequences for abhorrent behavior started to seem possible
My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

You literally can’t vote out fascism if the highest elected officials within the so-called opposition are actively working with and openly capitulating. With The fascists for their own gain. Every elected official in both parties has to go at the national level. The government has to be rebuilt.

Taking Republicans at their word that they’ll address healthcare costs later isn’t compromise—it’s a betrayal of the values Oregonians sent me to Congress to fight for.

ICE showed up at the Hidden Oaks apartment complex in Argay in Portland on 11/7 and 11/8 around 8 am. Residents made “ICE is here” signs, some handwritten and some copied, and taped them around the neighborhood.
Witnesses did not see any arrests either day, but ICE did not return this morning.
