There are four types of Portland Bluesky users

I recorded my first episode with @councilorkanal.bsky.social last night for my new councilor podcast, Motion to Spill 🎙️☕ and I'm excited to have a new way to talk about Portland government with the people who are shaping our future 🫶🏾 can't wait to see what y'all think 👀 Get an early preview:

General Election, even.

My wife came back from Costco mad as a hornet because they rearranged the entire store.

Just saw my first Steve Novick city counselor sign and the tagline is the first choice in district 3… I think you mean sixth

If you are anti-AI seeing Wildwood is your active resistance.

Hey Portlanders, it’s time to vote! Do you know where your ballot boxes are? Here’s my handy guide to all D4 locations. To get a complete list and a map, visit multco.us

I'm going to see Wildwood at the Bagdad matinee tomorrow! I would have gone tonight but I'm booked up with a Wonder Ballroom show "Nice as F*ck".

BREAKING NEWS

The fact that Novick is being ranked 6th on both sides of the political spectrum is also noteworthy.

A friendly reminder: We're running a Progressive Slate in '28. Up and down the ballot. When the dust settles on this election it's time to start meeting, strategizing, and recruiting to primary every establishment legislative Dem and business-backed local candidate.

No big surprise that @robnosse.bsky.social has endorsed Torres & Novick. Koyama Lane gets his nod as well. He takes a strident stand against Morillo. I have been a supporter of Nosse but his part in the Moda deal has completely soured me on him. #orpol #pdx

There is no world in which I will vote in favor of removing the first-class clause, and it's not something the Mayor can do unilaterally. This man has secured a path to roughly a billion in public subsidy for a stadium deal (despite my opposition) and still cries poor. We deserve better than this.

Is he going to kill it? It looks like he's trying to kill it.

Voters will choose new leadership at Multnomah County, amid budget strains that have seen core services cut and transformational programs that are testing residents’ faith in local government. This is why we think Shannon Singleton is the right person to lead the Board of County Commissioners. ⁠

Almost half of Eli’s donations over $100 come from Republicans or Portland conservatives. Probably not someone we should be trusting to be a solid progressive vote in D4. whosbuyingpdx.com/profiles/arn...

If you want a 7th progressive vote in council, make sure you toss @jameyevenstar.bsky.social $25 and share our voter guide with your friends and family! whosbuyingpdx.com/guide.html

In Texas (as many other places), GOP dirty tricks are in full force. A fake mailer by a fake organization trying to raise outrage about trans kids.

Mapquest makes the comeback run.

No lies

Just say no to Christian Nationalism. Just say no way to Drazan.

Donald Trump is a Russian stooge. This is plain to see.

have not seen a lot of attention on the moda center lately. I think this issue has not really been widely appreciated as an example of gross fiscal mismanagement by the mayor and his allies, and I think voters should consider if they are endorsing this kind of graft on their ballots this year 🧵

Half this rag is owned by Richard Meeker who's spouse, fmr Atty Gen of Oregon, is now Senior council for DC based Freshfields defending mega Corps against white color crime and antitrust lawsuits.

I didn’t sleep much this weekend but it was totally worth it. WhosBuyingPDX.com

1... 2... 3... days to receive my ballot. 4 to vote.

Voting completed. #orpol #pdx

A third of Americans approve of Trump’s performance, according to this poll. Which means they’re either A) brain-damaged; B) lack self-respect and enjoy being victims, or C) think high prices are worth it as long as members of minority groups are treated like scum. Let me know if you have a D).

Just got a @councilorgreen.bsky.social youtube political ad.Was an oasis in a morass of political ads!

Portland City Council ranks for progressives✨ District 4: (1) Mitch Green (2) Jamey Evenstar (3) Jeremy Beausoli Smith District 3: (1) Angelita Morillo (2) Tiffany Koyama Lane (3) Esther León (4) Cristal Otero (5) Tom Sollit (6) Steve Novick *don't rank* Kellie Torres, she’s a Rene Gonzalez type

PPB metes out justice in the street—they rarely take them alive. Death sentences for all.

Will we be publicly funding this too? Or is that just men's sports we do that for?

If you haven't noticed, a whole lot of shenanigans are coloring the discourse this election season. Wealthy, conservative interests are opening their wallets and spinning media narratives to slam progressives who challenge the status quo. Katherine Chew Hamilton and I explain: @portlandmercury.com

Eli Arnold, D4 city council candidate is suggesting that PCEF funds be used for some kind of fareless transit. Cool... but there's a hitch, he also wants to pair it with " added security, so everyone feels safe on the bus and train, it’s a plan that fits what the fund was built for."

Eli Arnold running for city council seat in D4 says he's raised plenty of money and you should support Kelly Torres--according to an email he sent out earlier today. Do with all that information what you will.

Having Jo Ann's endorsement means so much to me. She is literally the reason we have PCEF and Portland Street Response — two of the most important policies passed in Portland in decades. Her contributions to our city cannot be measured. Please wish Jo Ann a happy birthday, too! (1/2)

I am thrilled to endorse Steph Routh for East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District. Steph is deeply committed to the people of East County and will fight for our health and wellbeing just as she has done for over 20 years.
