Carmen Rubio. She was a city councilor running for mayor. It was a legit story. She had an absurd number of violations and lied about the circumstances around them repeatedly. It was not really a huge loss. She was and is not even progressive. Just a normal lib.

Charlie, dawg, nobody actually believes you care about education, housing, or services.

Portland is iffy. Right now 4/12 city councillors are DSA members, but by no means revolutionary in their politics. They are slightly better than average libs. Portland's DA was a progressive but got turfed out for a Republican "tough on crime" guy. Former progressive city council members have been literally framed by the police or just faced massive smear campaigns. The mayor is a trucking company CEO who's trying to give extra money to the shitty police department that they didn't even ask for while at the same time cutting the parks budget.

In the good ol days an army marched on its stomach! If these guys were in the Grande Armée they'd have already deserted!

310 through New Orleans also bad. Literally a freeway through a park.

That guy in Denver can claim he thought he was fighting an occupying force.

Well he's giving them an opportunity to do what they've always wanted to do: wanton violence against a less-equipped informal force composed largely of brown people?

As an enlightened "played with the French voices" gamer, this is revisionism.

Would be cool if other countries started doing the "Trump always chickens out" thing, but to pressure them to do good stuff instead of crashing the economy or bombing Iran.
