Portland is Pushing Back against ICE and the building they're Leasing. They've Illegally detained individuals for over the Agreed time limits.No Overnight stays, so they've broken the lease agreement 💥💪 Thanks for keeping this Horrible Situation on the Front Page today, and will reStack ASAP 🙏
You’re exactly right: if ICE is breaching the “no overnights” clause...that’s not just bad optics...it’s a lease violation the landlord and the city can’t ignore.
I’m pushing this angle hard today and in tonight’s paid deep-dive.
Restacks help keep a spotlight on this. Appreciated...and keep me posted.
I think it’s more than just DJT s long game; it’s Stephen Miller’s as well. Drunk Pete is going along for the thrill of it all, playing soldier boss to the military officers who have to make a hard choice, obeying orders or Constitution. God help us all.
Miller is the architect...Trump is the megaphone...Hegseth is the enforcer trying on a commander’s costume.
The pressure they’re applying forces exactly the “hard choice” you named...oath to orders vs. oath to the Constitution...which is the whole point of this escalation.
I’m weaving that triad (Trump–Miller–Hegseth) into tonight’s paid deep-dive with receipts and a timeline. Thank you for keeping the drumbeat going. Let’s help ourselves by staying loud and organized.
So the National Gaurd guy who was kicked out for being a threat is now going to do that to our generals and top brass!! MFuckers pay attention!! They are going to kill us all if they can!!
I wonder if today’s perps (the current pres, his young-un JD, and the rest of the appointed and unappointed MAGA gang) are aware of how their atrocities could, when this is all said and done, negatively impact their own families.
The Time article referenced a Life magazine article and included this sentence: “In a nutshell, LIFE wrote, “Germans stopped killing others and began killing themselves.””
That TIME piece is a chilling reminder of how authoritarian projects so often end: the violence turns inward...the circle tightens...and the “winners” discover the bill always comes due...sometimes in the most tragic ways.
I’m not predicting that outcome here, but your point lands: the current crop of would-be strongmen seem blind to what their choices do to their own families...legacy...reputation... legal exposure...and the permanent stain of being tied to cruelty.
This is exactly why we keep pressing for lawful accountability now...so the reckoning is through courts and truth...not chaos and despair.
We fight to make sure our kids inherit a country governed by law...not a mythology of impunity.
Would you be okay if I paraphrase your note (with or without your name) in tonight’s paid deep-dive? It’s a sharp lens...and it belongs in the conversation.
I have friends that live there. Trump is looking for a show. I am telling them - Dress in your yuppiest outfits and go down there pushing baby carriages, etc. Get in front of the cameras. He is looking for fear and fighting and scary antifa, let's give him the most normal looking American street we can.
“Chekhov's Gun is a principle of narrative composition that states every element introduced into a story should be necessary and have a purpose; if a loaded rifle is shown in Act I, it must be fired by Act III.”
Hegseth’s decision to leave stand the Wounded Knee Massacre Medal of Honor winners sends the message that following orders to shoot and kill noncombatants using thinly invented false pretext is not a barrier for awarding military honours to those pulling the triggers.

Amen, CC...spot on.

Your thoughts, as always, Jack, make total sense. Thank you.
In 2015, Time published an article by Eliza Berman entitled “The Nazi Suicides: Beyond Hitler and Braun, a Regime in Defeat”.

Sad.
Thank you, Mary...powerful share.

My comment is yours to use, Jack, I’m honored.
I hope you address what elderly and disabled people can do to help, besides give money to those who resist 👹

Fits like a glove Jack.
Mayor Wilson urges "Don't take the bait".
Highly likely operatives will be there to light the fuse.
Agree and they will blame the dems/antifa

I had to drop a few more off my FB for spewing hate. They truly believe we are causing violence. Just got to keep moving forward and taking action.
Where does Venezuela fit in to this?
I think that is just for shit and giggles and if somehow he can get their oil!! He just likes being tough! What a dick!
