I just spent a week in Portland. The city was busy with tourists and locals enjoying late summer. A prosperous downtown. Factually, there is no observable evidence of a city needing military intervention. A reminder that this is not normal. Please pay attention.
President Trump said Saturday he will send troops to Portland, "authorizing Full Force, if necessary" to handle "domestic terrorists" as he expands his controversial deployments to more U.S. cities.

I was there as well, three weeks. The people were delightful as always. I took my grandkids to the zoo. Portland is peaceful and a beautiful sample of peaceful coexistence.
Now it will become another city in line to be federally harassed as they try to prove authoritarian strength. Ghouls incoming.

Kamala Harris on The View on election night: "That night -- I grieved in a way that I have not since my mother died. The pain was not at all about losing a race. I knew what it was going to mean for the country ... all I could say over and over was 'my God, my God, my God.' It was very difficult."

Here is my best guidance, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons nearly nine years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

By next spring, they'll be bragging about the passenger airliner they shot out of the sky because it was filled with "antifa commandos"
This appears to be the 3rd lethal US strike in the Caribbean.
Once again, the specific "terrorist" entity targeted is not identified.
No legal justification is offered for this premeditated killing.
President Trump is asserting a license to kill outside of the law. 1/n

I don't know why I'm even going to bother, but no it wasn't. It was hardly even brought up in the Federalist papers. The people who created the United States were almost pathologically fixated on the Roman Republic and Enlightenment-era Liberalism.
White Christian Taliban shit right here.
Time to stop tiptoeing around it. These people are fanatics pursuing a Holy War. It’s a critical piece of the threat assessment that should inform our strategies. (Psst. They’re not just going to hand back power.)

The United States Tennis Association told broadcasters not to show any booing of Trump today.
Call them to let them know how you feel about them enabling a wannabe dictator and his fascist regime.
