@ORDems Not one of these new 'laws' protects or affects me as an Oregonian.
Why should she show up? You're just ramming through more of your performative, illegal loving bullsh*t.
Pathetic flex @ORDem
It's almost hilarious that Kotek states Oregon's guidance will be grounded in science and not ideology except for the fact that every single policy she stands for and forces on Oregonians IS BASED ON IDEOLOGY. The gaslighting is next level by this POS.
Kotek will be removed in November.
@TinaKotek@GovTinaKotek
@KATUNews Really jumping thru hoops for that headline. What the real headline should be, "Pandemic ended over 3 years ago, now SNAP will be used as intended with proper vetting to reduce fraud and abuse of the system". Local news/journalism is a joke👍
Tina Kotek is incompetent. She has placed every social agenda ahead of ALL Oregonians.
Jeff Merkley supports a Nazi and refuses to disavow him.
Ron Wydens son Adam is in the Epstein Files.
Now we sit and wait for the Democrats to play “whataboutisms” over Trump.
Oregon.
Just remember that while we have been struggling for decades under Democrat rule? They have been pandering to their base advancing societal agendas. Tina Kotek, undoubtedly the largest dictator in our states history doesn’t care about you.
The same Tina Kotek that blames all of Oregons failures on Trump.
Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley also blame Trump.
Not an ounce of accountability among the “leadership” that is Führer Kotek and her cronies.
If you were smart @KATUNews you would do the deep dive into the ramifications for the entire state.
No more fishing or crabbing on the Oregon coast. Would destroy those coastal communities.
Dairy farmers and Tillamook Cheese and Ice Cream? Gone.
Cattle ranching in Eastern Oregon or even the Valley. Gone.
Literally hundreds of thousands of jobs and companion industries wiped out in Oregon.
Most of you would become unemployed too because advertising would dry up.
Report responsibly on this @KATUNews
Gilles, je vais démonter ta prémisse de départ, parce que tout le reste de ton argument s'effondre avec elle.
Tu pars du principe qu'il faut une « sensibilité de gauche » pour ne pas laisser créver les gens de faim. C'est l'inverse total de ce que dit l'histoire économique des 50 dernières années.
Les chiffres bruts.
1990 : 2,3 milliards de personnes en pauvreté extrême. 38% de l'humanité.
2025 : 831 millions. Environ 10%.
1,5 milliard d'êtres humains sortis de la misère absolue en 35 ans. La plus grande réduction de souffrance humaine de toute l'histoire de l'espèce.
Qui a fait ça ?
Pas l'aide internationale. Pas les ONG. Pas les programmes de redistribution. Pas la « sensibilité de gauche ».
Le marché. L'ouverture commerciale. La Chine de Deng en 1978 qui abandonne le maoisme. L'Inde en 1991 qui libéralise. Le Vietnam, l'Indonésie, le Bangladesh qui s'ouvrent au capitalisme.
Les seuls endroits où l'extrême pauvreté a EXPLOSÉ sur la même période ? Le Vénézuela socialiste : de 27% de pauvres en 2008 à plus de 80% en 2018, avec une inflation de 130 000% et un Vénézuélien moyen qui a perdu 11 kilos par dénutrition. La Corée du Nord. Cuba. Le Zimbabwe de Mugabe.
La gauche ne nourrit pas les pauvres. Elle les fabrique.
Le capitalisme produit tellement de richesse que même ses « perdants » américains vivent mieux que la classe moyenne soviétique. Un pauvre US a un frigo, une voiture, un téléphone, l'air conditionné, internet. Un pauvre cubain attend du riz.
Ton argument selon lequel « le social aux USA est un désastre » repète une légende française. La réalité : le PIB par habitant américain est de 80 000$. Français : 45 000$. Un Mississippien — l'État US le plus pauvre — a un revenu médian supérieur au Français moyen.
La vérité que la gauche française refuse de regarder : dans un système libéral, il y a plus de richesse créée, plus largement distribuée, et beaucoup moins de pauvres. Partout. Sans exception. Sur toutes les périodes mesurées.
ÊTRE de gauche en 2026 face à ces données, ce n'est pas avoir de la « sensibilité ». C'est ignorer 35 ans de preuves accablantes. C'est préférer la posture morale au résultat.
La compassion sans résultats, ça s'appelle de la vanité.
The One Party Lunacy in Oregon has completely devastated that once great State.
Portland Democrat leaders have allowed antifa mobs free rein to cause havoc and violence in their once beautiful city.
There is no “warmth in the collective.”
Just needles in the park, no go zones homeless camps, and people moving out.
The DOJ has ONE WEEK left to charge Anthony Fauci for the worst cover-up in modern medical history.
He lied to Congress about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Millions died. Trillions were spent. And Fauci walked away with book deals and fawning media coverage instead of handcuffs. I re-upped my criminal referral to the DOJ because the evidence is overwhelming, and justice has been delayed long enough.
RT if you’re ready to see Fauci behind bars.
“The Oregon Shuffle”
I have several copies of Oregon’s state voter rolls, and have been helping grassroots patriots there to understand the shenanigans their state is pulling with their voter rolls.
First, when the SoS claims to be removing inactive voters from the rolls, you should ask him, “OK… but how many *new* registrants have you added?”
Like your bank account… you take some money out, and put some money in. What matters is the *net* balance.
Second, who’s checking up on him? Certainly not the county clerks; most of them don’t even have the capability.
But I do, and I am.
Here are the basic numbers:
In January 2025, there were 3.8 million people in the rolls, with 3.04 million of them considered “active.” (Strange, since they only have 3 million voting age residents.)
In March 2026, there were 3.74 million people in the rolls, with 3.08 million active. (Strange again… the voter rolls have been growing much faster than the population since 2014.)
Between January 2025 and March 2026, the SoS removed 331,000 voters from the county rolls: 139,000 active and 192,000 inactive.
But between January 2025 and March 2026, the SoS added 253,000 voters to the county rolls, essentially replacing the removals. We call this “voter roll churn.”
The average churn in the county voter rolls since 2021 is 74%. Did the county populations change that much? No… but the voter rolls did. (We can track every registrant in the rolls.)
On April 29, 2026 the primary election ballots were mailed with excessively dirty voter rolls… again.
This wastes LARGE amounts of money (about one-third of the ballots do not have a legitimate destination) and makes it easy for bad actors to manipulate the outcomes of Oregon elections. (It provides a credit line with lots of wiggle room.)
This will continue until citizens and counties stand up and refuse to comply with the illegal and unconstitutional election system that is being imposed on them by the state.
ODOT says it “can’t afford” basic road maintenance… but somehow has the budget for employee conferences like “Blueprints for a Queer Future” complete with drag kings and 2 spirit poetry readings.
Oregonians are dodging potholes while agencies prioritize everything but core services.
