Greene: "I will praise Nancy Pelosi. She had an incredible career for her party. I served under her speakership in my first term in Congress and I'm very impressed at her ability to get things done. I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party."

"It's an ominous marker of the nation’s polarization, to which the Trump administration has...contributed, that some of those top public servants have felt a need to separate themselves from the public. These civilian officials can now depend on the U.S. military to augment their personal security."

I live in Portland & can confirm, it's total bedlam out here. The New Seasons only had two checkstands open, the cashier had pronouns on their nametag, and someone honked at someone else in the parking lot! At a four-way stop, no one would go first out of politeness. I barely I made it home alive.

The Oregon Board of Pharmacy (OBOP?) needs to pull its head out of the sand. If not, @tinakotek.bsky.social needs to yank their head out of the sand for them. OBOP is two steps behind RFK Jr., who they absolutely need to get out in front of. ASAP. 🧵 1/x
COVID vaccine availability: another high profile case where Oregon health policy is botched. What are we doing here? Will there ever be effective management that delivers basic health services effectively? @robnosse.bsky.social

I can’t stop thinking about this person I met last month who was from the east coast and responded so enthusiastically when I told them I used to live in Idaho and then told me they were going to visit Idaho Falls to see the falls with zero hint of joking.

I love to show up every day for my job, which is standing around holding the front of my tactical vest and getting told to choke to death by thousands of passers-by while 11 of my coworkers handcuff a roofer on his way to work. Every night I drive 80 minutes home, thinking about nothing at all.
