    PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — A rally held on March 23 at Terry Schrunk Plaza in Portland called for the Trump administration to halt deportations and "keep families together". Organized by Portland Contra las Deportaciones and other activist groups, the event drew a crowd of all ages. Omar Gil, an organizer for the group, emphasized the rally's purpose: "Keep protesting, keep demanding for an end to deportations, stop separating families. Standing up to Trump's racist agenda." He added, "People are scared but it's not time to hide, it's time to show up and show out. I think it's important to bolster...

    By Bridget Bowman, Ben Kamisar and Alexandra Marquez The Democratic Party has reached an all-time low in popularity in the latest national NBC News poll, as it searches for a path forward after a painful loss to President Donald Trump — and as the party’s voters spoil for a fight between their leaders in Washington and Trump. Just over a quarter of registered voters (27%) say they have positive views of the party, which is the party’s lowest positive rating in NBC News polling dating back to 1990. Just 7% say those views are “very” positive. Almost two-thirds of Democrats,...

    Pro-Russian parties form new governing coalition in Ukraine by Yana Dlugy KIEV (AFP) - Ukraine's pro-Russian parties formed a new governing coalition in a stunning move that promises to slow the pro-Western course taken by the ex-Soviet nation after the "orange revolution." In front of reporters in parliament, the Regions Party and the Communists signed a coalition agreement with the Socialists, who in a surprise move had defected from the pro-Western "orange" camp the previous day. The coalition said it was open to other parties. "We're not closing the doors," said Viktor Yanukovych, the leader of Regions. "They are open...

    Bolivian President Luis Arce Catacora reviewed with his Russian colleague Vladimir Putin the joint lithium and nuclear projects with which the South American country consolidates its position from a geopolitical and strategic viewpoint given the presence of Iranian facilities and equipment. Arce told reporters in La Paz Tuesday that all these matters were discussed during his recent meeting with the Russian leader in St. Petersburg on the occasion of the International Economic Forum (SPIEF) in the former imperial capital. According to Arce, the project involving Russia's Uranium One company regarding direct lithium extraction in Bolivian salt flats “must start operating...

    Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison, the former congressman from Minnesota who gave us examples of how to treat women, has tweeted that the "Bernie Bros," that rabid group of Bernie Sanders–supporters that seem like a branch of Antifa, has tweeted that, no, they are merely passionate and as gentle as he: "I have never seen @BernieSanders supporters being unusually mean or rude," Ellison tweeted. "Can someone send me an example of a 'Bernie Bro' being bad. Also, are we holding all candidates responsible for the behavior of some of their supporters? Waiting to hear." Like most Democrats, progressives, and liberals,...

    Parliamentarians in Slovakia enshrined marriage as a “unique bond between a man and a woman” in the country’s Constitution May 4, with 102 National Council members backing the amendment, 18 opposing it, and three abstentions. The amendment was brought to the National Council by the Christian Democrats, and supported by the government, despite the latter being led by the socialist SMER party. A government spokesman told a press conference that the proposal simply upholds the existing situation. “The marriage amendment will not bring about any drastic changes, it only seals in the constitution what is already defined by law,” said...

    Gay and transgender liberals around the country are arming themselves over perceived concerns they’ll be rounded up and placed in “concentration camps” under a second Trump administration, according to a report. The Philadelphia Inquirer on Sunday profiled several members of the emerging gun-toting left, who belong to groups with names like the Liberal Gun Club, the Socialist Rifle Association and Pink Pistols. Although precise figures regarding LGBTQ gun ownership are tough to ascertain given the small cohort, the Liberal Gun Club told the outlet that it’s received “thousands” of firearms training requests since the election — more than in all...

    Dec 2 (Reuters) - California’s Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom on Monday announced he is seeking up to $25 million in additional funding for legal fights with the incoming administration of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. The announcement came on the first day of a special session of the California legislature dedicated to preparing the liberal state for the second term of conservative Trump. If approved by the legislature, the California Department of Justice and state agencies would get the extra funding for court battles in areas such as reproductive rights, environmental protection and immigration. California Attorney General Rob Bonta, also a...

    Prepare for DeportationThe law of God commands us to perform corporal works of mercy but also to obey the just laws of our land. And there is nothing unjust in having laws that govern the process of immigration—and Catholics should stand by those laws with confidence.Many Catholics viewed Donald Trump’s campaign promise to deport millions of illegal immigrants with the same seriousness they have for Republicans stumping about abortion: big talk, little delivery. But something serious is in the air. President-elect Donald Trump has selected Stephen Miller as his Deputy Chief of Staff, a known immigration stickler; and he has...

    The vice president then began singing the praises of Kaunda, a brutal socialist dictator allied with the Soviet Union, who had banned opposing political parties and ran as the only candidate for president until he was finally ousted, and praised Zambia’s “democracy”. Kaunda, whom Kamala fondly recalled meeting with JFK and MLK “to discuss peaceful forms of protest” had demanded nuclear weapons from LBJ. Hichilema, who had narrowly survived being arrested by a previous regime, had nothing to say about Kamala’s fond memories of Zambian democracy. Or the “peaceful forms of protest” carried on with nuclear missiles and terrorism. But...

    "It's not only the lack of electricity but also of gas and water," she told AFP, 11 hours after the unplanned shutdown of Cuba's main thermal power plant triggered the collapse of the country's grid. With a frown, she said her "generation wants to continue trusting" in the 1959 revolution that brought Fidel Castro to power, but her "resilience has limits". Cuba is in the throes of its worst economic crisis in 30 years, marked by sky-high inflation and shortages of food, medicine, fuel and water.

    AOC isn’t extreme enough for them! Local Democratic Socialists may censure US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for going too soft on Israel — with alleged transgressions including supporting the Jewish State’s “right to exist.” The New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America will consider a resolution at its annual convention Saturday to shame Ocasio-Cortez even though the congresswoman has publicly criticized Israel and isn’t considered a staunch ally of the country. The uber-liberal group’s resolution blasts Ocasio-Cortez for several statements and votes, including supporting House Resolution 888, which “affirmed Israel’s right to exist” and “recognizes that denying Israel’s...

    Church and state cross swords in Italy over immigration, autonomyROME – An unusually direct and public clash between church and state is unfolding in Italy, where both Pope Francis and the country’s bishops are perceived to be challenging the center-right government over both migration and proposals for greater regional autonomy.In a clear sign of those tensions, the leader of Italy’s far-right anti-immigrant Lega party took to Facebook late Wednesday evening to ask his followers, “What do you think of the bishops’ attacks?” – provoking a predictable cascade of critical replies.Typical was the reaction of a follower who wrote, “They would...

According to numerous US citizens, socialists cheating in elections and undercutting the will of the people is an "unimaginable abomination." Over 98% of Americans polled say they are "incredibly grateful" that it could never happen in America. "Oh, yeah, it's absolutely tragic what's going on down there,"...
