The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

@NoraODo21179501 Thank you.

@mluckovichajc For those who aren’t at least 60 (as am I): youtu.be/Ny8-G8EoWOw?si…

@Salem_Statesman Lots of options out there, including Dolores Huerta and Sonia Sotomayor.

Will Salem-Keizer school change name after Cesar Chavez allegations? statesmanjournal.com/story/news/loc…

This is absolutely fucking brilliant.

Saturday Night Live occasionally makes me laugh. Welcome to MAHAspital. Where emergencies are treated with beef tallow and raw eggs.

😭😭😭 BREAKING: JD Vance blames soaring gas prices on Joe Biden 😭😭😭

@Salem_Statesman I have fond memories of the fountain, and I will miss it. It was beautiful and a great place in which little children could wade.

See Willson Park and Waite Fountain before demolition work begins statesmanjournal.com/picture-galler…

@MilesTaylorUSA Thank you so much for appearing on The Weeknight this evening. Something you said about DHS and immigration officials resonated with me. I’m going to get this wrong, but I think it was, “Cruelty is the consequence for noncompliance.” Thank you.

@CBSEveningNews @weijia Thank you, Weijia. You are always on the cutting edge at reporting and holding the White House accountable.

President Trump said Friday he “may put a tariff on countries” that do not support his plans to acquire Greenland. The president emphasized the need for the arctic island for national security, as it sits off the coast of Canada in a key location to stage weapons that could take out Russian missiles if fired at the U.S. @Weijia reports.

@RepBobGood Didn’t USAID feed starving people around the world, and US farmers sold our government the food to do that? Too bad that agency was gutted, right?

Sending out $2000 stimulus checks will be more wastefully expensive (and inflationary) than giving back tariff money.

@TerryMoran May 29, 2025: The Trump administration sets Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) quota of 3,000 arrests daily (1M annually), tripling the already aggressive figures of 1,000 arrests daily.

Barack Obama deported more than 3 million people from this country while he was president. No masked gangs descending on neighborhoods, snatching ordinary working people from their cars and disappearing them, storming homes without judicial warrants. This is just force, not law.

@CaptMarkKelly A sick, petty little man. He hates everyone who is critical of him. Here he is on Nancy Pelosi’s retirement: youtu.be/yCkUbdUO36A?si…

What kind of person, let alone a President, reacts to the murder of an American this way?

@RepGoodlander Thank you for your courage, Congresswoman. I never served in the military, and I am in no position to judge those who have to decide if an order is lawful or unlawful, But I remember My Lai, And I hope that everyone knows about it.

President Trump is using the FBI as a tool to intimidate and harass members of Congress. Yesterday, the FBI contacted the House and Senate Sergeants at Arms requesting interviews. No amount of intimidation or harassment will ever stop us from doing our jobs and honoring our Constitution. We swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. That oath lasts a lifetime, and we intend to keep it. We will not be bullied. We will never give up the ship.

@krassenstein From 2019:

BREAKING: Trump says that Every American, who isn't a High Income earner, will get $2000 in Cash. In other words he wants to issue a stimulus check because the economy is sucking. In other words he wants to increase our deficit by $650 BILLION. In other words, he wants to do the same thing that he claimed Biden did, that caused inflation.

@60Minutes @NorahODonnell Brilliant work, Norah. You remind me of Mike Wallace. (That’s a compliment.) Thank you.

SUNDAY ON 60 MINUTES: @NorahODonnell speaks with President Donald J. Trump in an exclusive, wide-ranging interview. O’Donnell interviewed Mr. Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, on Friday.

"Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face." — @realDonaldTrump, October 31, 2024

@mluckovichajc Perfect, Mike. Thank you.
