Portland is facing the single largest school closure in US history. This morning I went to Stephenson Elementary to rally with over a hundred students, teachers, staff, and community members to stop the current school closure plan. Go to savepdxschools.org to fight back against these closures.

Vote Kotek like your lives depend on it. For some of us, it does.

very unlikely but not inconceivable oregon's leg dems could hold existing seats, pick up two senate seats (SD 11, maybe 16 + 26 in play), three in the house (HD 52, 21, 15) giving dems walkout-proof supersupermajorities that could pass anything... ...only for drazan to win and veto all of it

PGE is trying to cut down 20 acres of Forest Park to expand electrical transmission for Data Centers. We need leaders ready to meet this moment & defend our forests and waterways from uninhibited Data Center Expansion. That’s why I’m running for Portland City Council on a 4 Year AI Data Center Ban.

People keep trying to game theory ranked choice voting and I honestly wouldn’t overcomplicate it for yourself. Put your choices in the order you want. Between attacks from PACs, the way people view women in power, disinfo campaigns, we don’t know how it’ll shake out. youtu.be/pUC32T7nPVU

Vote early so you can handle it if something weird happens.

In 2024, ballot boxes in Oregon and Washington were bombed. Records obtained by @ryanjhaas.bsky.social show the bizarre investigation - where the best suspect looked like alien? - stalled. New from @thewesternedge.bsky.social www.thewesternedge.media/p/the-alien-...

tommy did not get paid $250k to disrupt el-sayed's event. tommy's dad TIMMY's LLC was paid that amount. whether timmy gave tommy a cut is unknown at this point.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

I’m very critical of Tina Kotek and people need to vote for her anyway. There’s no ranked choice in this race. The governor has the power to call in the national guard, or affect voting. That alone is too important. Christine Drazan is too dangerous. Hold your nose and do it.

Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

Ashton Pittman@ashtonpittman.bsky.social

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Oregon MAGA candidate for governor, Christine Drazan, hanging out with more Christian Nationalist gun lobbyists. The proliferation of guns lobbyist has nothing but praise for Drazan.

Hey everyone, final reminder! If you've got beads or jewelry making things to donate, or would like to venmo some monetary support, I'm going to be ordering on Thursday for some P:ear stuff with the funds I've already gotten! DM for venmo, or to coordinate getting donations!

Scary Tea Lady@sassytealady.bsky.social

Hey folks, got a big ask here! I do beading workshops at P:ear when the schedule allows, and have 3 weeks of workshops coming up. They have a kind of pitiful supply of beading things and I'd like to change that. But I'm rolling-pennies-for-gas-broke and they cancelled pennies. Can you help?

Brian Owendoff has donated to Kellie Torres (District 3) and Eli Arnold (District 4) this cycle. Congrats to Connor for winning the cat GIF!

Brandon Mullen@brandonmullen.com

It has come to my attention that Brian Owendoff (yes, THAT Brian Owendoff) has donated to exactly two Portland City Council candidates on the ballot this year. Can you guess who they are? First person to get both wins a GIF of a cat!

french protests make very clear how much u.s. protests self-restrain and how bizarrely obsessed we are with the fear of being demonized by entities that are demonizing us anyway

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)

If you ctrl+f “Moda” on the Willamette Week’s council endorsements—which include Novick, Zimmerman, and Clark—you’ll get no results. I could say a lot more, but I don’t think I need to.

Willamette Week@wweek.com

The City Council has devolved into cliques and put-downs more suited to a high school cafeteria than a body that decides this city’s future.

The fact that news stations haven't picked this up..as opposed to say Mitch Green's tweets. This is an excellent interview. While media gets caught up talking circularly about #ProgresivesGoneWild this cuts to the core of what should be discussed www.streetroots.org/news-stories...

Polite ageism is ageism. Polite sexism is sexism. Polite racism is racism. Masking your bias beneath a smile and a soft tone does not make your words and actions any less damaging or unacceptable.
