Yesterday Don’t Shoot Portland organized a Reclaim MLK March that was lead by children in our community. It was great to see so many families out in the street marching for social justice. (photo credit: Instagram @ RipCityView)

Solitary & other forms of isolated confinement are inhumane, counterproductive, & unsafe. People in isolated confinement in NYS spend 22-24 hrs. a day locked in a cell the size of an elevator—alone or with 1 other person. Legislators should pass #HALTsolitary to end this torture.
People in isolated confinement in New York State may be permitted only 1-2 hours to exercise alone in a cage, they do not receive any meaningful programs or therapy, and often cannot make phone calls.
The sensory deprivation, lack of normal human interaction, and extreme idleness in isolated confinement can lead to intense suffering and severe psychological damage.

In February, I’m moving to NYC to work with @BklynDefender and @ScottHech on a cutting-edge public defender and client-led media advocacy project. I’m excited to be expanding my work in the movement to end mass incarceration.
I've been moved by the work @BklynDefender has been doing that uses media and strategic campaigns to leverage issues public defenders are seeing on the front lines of the criminal justice system into action and change. The following is some of their work to date.
Prosecutorial Power: Prosecutors have the power to drive mass incarceration, but they also have the power to end it. If you believe in ending mass incarceration so should your district attorney. Vote for a DA who shares your values. PowerOfProsecutors.com

1. Yesterday afternoon I noticed a man who appeared to be homeless sitting on the ground by my office. I walked by him again later that night. I was startled when I noticed his pants were pulled down a bit. I just kept on walking.
2. Then I was at my office early this morning and became concerned when I saw the man in the same spot. He seemed to be just waking up. Again, his pants were pulled down—but not in a sexual way.
3. I told the man that I was worried that someone would call the police on him and that he should pull his pants up. He seemed to understand and pulled his pants up.

@TraceyRyniec Let me fix that tweet for you, Ms. Ryniec:

"The real problem was that they were stuck living outside in conditions that were miserable long before the cold snap, with no real hope of escaping them, because employers discriminate against the long term unemployed."
@TraceyRyniec "Meanwhile public aid has been cut so low that people are being expected to survive on $2.50 per day, less than the cost of a carton of yogurt."
@TraceyRyniec "At that, for only two years before their public aid is cut off, without concern being given to little questions like 'were there any jobs available for these people.' Which, of course, there probably wouldn't be, when not having a job means that employers will refuse to hire."

1. I just saw the footage that’s being spread around from a protest in Portland on Saturday that people are claiming shows antifa directing traffic and yelling a drivers who won’t comply.
2. I spent 5 minutes Googling and reading news articles to find out that the protesters seem to have been part of a protest following a fatal police shooting on 9/30/18 in which some claim the man was unarmed. Police say he was armed.

3. One of the videos going around doesn’t show that the elderly white driver who was chased down the street did so after driving through a crowd of protesters with one directly in front of his car.

25 years ago today, something happened here at 214 W Burnside. And it kinda freaked #Portland the fuck out.
Of course - 25 years ago, the place looked quite a bit different... It was called the X-Ray Cafe.
(It wasn't really established in 1890. That's some silly shit...)

(1) On Tuesday our great POTUS visits California for the first time since his historic 2016 win. Main event is a visit our #BuildTheWall prototypes. I will have photos below.

Here's Sabine Durden speaking of her late son at the Convention. #AngelMoms #AngelDads #NeverForget
(2) There are dozens of good reasons to #BuildTheWall, but I like to pause and remember the families who lost loved ones first. We have to save lives.

I've gathered photos of the site near San Diego, then I'll show you some Leftist protesters from today. On Tuesday, ignore 'em.
(3) Then the rest of the thread will be my usual relentlessly positive photos about the #POTUSinCA visit, which I'm sure will be another great day for the #MAGA movement of sane, law-abiding Americans. #KeepAmericaGreat #RedWaveRising #GOPUnity

Did I say there will be horses?
