“Roughly a dozen Portland police officers faced off with a small group at a Northeast Portland Fred Meyer on Tuesday after people tried to take food that had been thrown away.
Workers at the Hollywood West Fred Meyer threw away thousands of perishable items because the store, like many others, had lost power in an outage brought on by the region’s winter storm.

“Republicans across the country are now adding ‘incite violence’ to their platforms.
Michigan’s highest ranking Republican leader was caught on video calling the Jan. 6 attack at the U.S. Capitol a “hoax” and espousing other conspiracy theories related to the siege.
Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, in a video posted on YouTube of a meeting with Hillsdale County Republican Party officials, said of the Capitol insurrection in which five people died: “It was all staged.”
About half an hour into the video Shirkey can also be heard asking, “Why wasn’t there more security there?” He accused Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of being involved, saying McConnell “is part of the decision-making how much security they have on stand. I think they wanted to have a mess.”

“Keep in mind this predates, by several years, the Mary Kay Letourneau/Vili Fualaau spectacle in the media: The first segment covers the subject of a 13 year old boy being seduced by a 35 year old female school cafeteria worker. I notice Tim is saying extremely little in this interview…Everyone else is providing a narrative for him… He appears completely manipulated during this “interview”. Tim hid and protected this relationship, and the sex that was happening… …It’s interesting that after the relationship was caught, he started sneaking back to it a few months later…defying his parents… Tim honestly doesn’t come off, as someone who is having real trouble with this…He comes off as someone who is being psychologically manipulated, by people who don’t like that he is a sexual being. Tim gives an interesting smirk, early on… I didn’t recall Phil being this big of a pop psychology prude. There’s lots of giggles in the audience…They behave so different, from the crowds today. Tim is a kid who gets the belt from his own mother, when he does not obey…It seems he is clearly subdued and under control here. Maybe Tim was thinking about the sex more than school…but can you honestly connect the dots, and blame the sex on declining grades?…Sounds extremely speculative. What I’m seeing here…is a bunch of people who are upset, that Tim got sexually socialized as a thirteen year old…But can they honestly articulate why they are upset, beyond the issue that this sort of relationship is not anticipated, or thought of as being socially normal? |

“Ted Cruz is a total pig!
Just confirmed @SenTedCruz and his family flew to Cancun tonight for a few days at a resort they’ve visited before. Cruz seems to believe there isn’t much for him to do in Texas for the millions of fellow Texans who remain without electricity/water and are literally freezing.
