The only anti-ICE protests here in Portland have been near their offices. Homan and his gangs coming here will cause mass protests like we saw a few years ago. "...anti-ICE protests on South Macadam Avenue over the past month, as well as people who live nearby or have children who attend the school next to the facility, the Cottonwood School."
Another link to dear friend Ron. Visiting once again articles describing his accomplishments are uplifting. Think of it, to be a professor at Stanford without having higher education in one’s life path.
His close friend and neighbor, Ginger, who introduced us to him… Her older cousin Phyllis lives in Belvedere, turns 94 today, mentored her when she moved to California from Texas in 1980. It was beautiful to witness how enlivened Ginger became yesterday when she talked about about Phyllis, who is still busy and active! My grandson used to declare I would live to be 104… We’ll see. Time will tell. Lol. Coincidentally, my dear aunt Marge, mom of Navy Chaplain Henry Kenneth Frye, of whom I wrote the other day…one of 74 who perished in the horrific ship accident in Vietnam in 1969… She was a rocket scientist, Rosie the Riveter spirit, working at Aerospace in El Segundo when she took a brief leave of absence for a “small” surgery (sister-in-law nurse June Hamilton remarked regularly there is no such thing as a “small” surgery…), which went well, but her body sort of said “it’s time.” She would’ve been 104 yesterday.
I don’t remember who remarked that what matters is not the dates on the tombstone, but the significance of the dash in between.
I have to say I disagree with your Tom re: "jumped-up piece of hillbilly shit". He grew up in the suburbs of Dayton - is he really a hillbilly? I think most actual hillbillies would say "fake fake fake", and having cousins doesn't count. I don't call myself a farmer, despite the fact that my cousin still runs the family farm, so JD can't even claim that mantle - he's just a another suburban loser who managed to be intelligent enough to get into Yale - kind of the opposite of anything resembling a hillbilly.
If you check out Tennessee Brando (either his own YouTube channel and Substack, or through the Midas Touch Network)--he HATES Vance, and those he terms fake hillibillies, which includes Kid Rock. Tennessee is proud of his heritage and declares he is a true hillbilly. I've always heard that label used as a slur, so I do hesitate to use it, but it is appropriate in this case.
Check out Tennessee, he's the real deal. ("A blue dot in the buckle of the red belt")
very funny. Like 'The Trumpscum' as a college newspaper name (because colleges have so much freedom) but also it is important to understand that they do what you say, 'don't do!' so you have to say it to things you want! right? Like, 'don't use toilet paper' and you'll get more toilet paper. It works like that!
Tom, I filed election paperwork on Tuesday. I'm officially a candidate for US Congress! I'm ready to bring caring, compassion, and change to our country to replace the chaos, cruelty and corruption of this administration. My opponent is the vice-chair of the House Budget committee, and represents a deep red district. I'm ready to take this on. Please keep up the fight, everyone. We need to stand up, speak out, and resist! https://nancymannion.com/
Thank you, TC! Well, thats another fine mess for today. Never a quiet day with these half wits. It is hot in Indiana!

He comes from that "community."
“Hillbilly” is Vance’s self description. He can wear it like a millstone
Apologies to Hillbillies everywhere

I live just over the border in NYS - did donate - hope you are successful.
We need good people to run - especially women! Many many more women.
Good luck
Thank you for your donation!! I appreciate it.
I think we should change the name of the Supreme Court to the Supine Court.
Tom, kudos on this barn burner
