The Oklahoma 10 Commandments was the ACLU’s case. The Satanic Temple had nothing to do with it beyond generating headlines for an unrelated stunt.

They’re protesting against the Democratic Party because, at the local level, the politicians who are in control of the Portland and Oregon State politce that have been brutalizing people are all Democrats.

“Elect more Democrats” isn’t a solution, and the mayor, who is also police commissioner, won with 46 percent of…

Hot take: I don’t think we should have any statues of child-traffickers standing.
