Last week, walking into a grocery store in SE Portland, I saw a friend who happens to drive taxi for one of Portland’s largest taxi companies. I asked him how business was, thinking that ride share companies such as Lyft and Uber had taken the lion’s share of the market. His answer was not what I was expecting.
“Business is booming.” He said. He told me that his company had record profits in 2025.
I asked him why that was the case. He told me that his cab company had contracted as a CCO (Coordinated Care Organization) with CareOregon’s Ride to Care program.
My friend was waiting in the parking lot for his client, a homeless man, to finish purchasing items at the grocery store. The man came out after several minutes looking every bit the part of a Portland homeless individual.
In 2025 alone, the Ride to Care program, which receives money from the Oregon Health Authority (OHP) to transport clients to grocery stores, gyms, support groups, court hearings, warming/cooling shelters, and other social-service trips. The Ride to Share Program is managed through non-profits, primarily Health Share of Oregon, which receives funds through the OHA.
The cost of this program is astronomical:
Nearly 1.7 million trips
Nearly 40k users
5.8 million miles
Total estimated cost: $88 million
That is $88 million in federal and state taxpayer dollars. Besides the “Flex Trips” (social service trips), clients were also transported to doctor’s offices, substance-abuse treatment facilities, and pharmacies.
It seems that the only companies in Portland’s economy that do well have figured out a way to contract with local governments in order to tap into taxpayer funds, especially those siphoned through the Homeless Industrial Complex.
🚨🚨 BOMBSHELL JUST DROPPED — THERE IS NO HIDING THIS ANYMORE 🚨🚨
Investigative journalist Catherine Herridge just exposed the documents.
China was BLACKMAILING the Biden family… and it was sitting in President Biden’s own daily brief.
She found the records. She held them up on camera. The evidence is right there.
And what did the FBI, CIA, and the entire legacy media do?
They buried it. They looked the other way. They protected the regime.
This isn’t politics.
This isn’t a “scandal.”
This is TREASON at the highest level.
They knew.
They covered it up.
And they did it to keep power.
No more excuses. No more “conspiracy theories.” The documents are out. The truth is staring America in the face.
Share this everywhere. The American people deserve to know.
Mamdani balanced NYC’s budget with non-NYC taxpayers’ money - and called it socialism.
He’s running the city-owned grocery stores with a private company - and calling it socialism.
In public he says socialism means democracy and dignity for all - which sounds nice but means little.
None of those are socialism.
His stated end goal - seizing the means of production - is socialism.
He’s marketing things that aren’t socialism, to sell socialism.
And socialism has failed every time.
Jason Arday shouldn’t be dead.
But he is dead - because he didn’t tell the truth.
And Cambridge University didn’t look for the truth - because he’s black.
And fellow black professors didn’t ask for the truth - because he is black.
Jason lied repeatedly.
And he told the exact lies that allow one to excel in the system that elite universities have adopted.
A system that factors in race, hardship, and lived experience under the banner of equity, instead of pure performance.
Nearly everyone in these institutions ignored Jason’s lies, to try and protect black people.
They called the people seeking the truth racists.
Of course there were some racists.
But the majority of people just wanted the truth.
Avoiding the truth didn’t help black people.
Double standards in academia aren’t helping black people.
They hurt the perception of black people who are truly the best, and would have held prestigious positions at elite schools, solely off the merits of their performance.
Double standards always backfire.
Even when well intentioned.
Even when intended to correct for past oppression.
Race-conscious hiring and admissions have created a situation where it is rational to wonder whether a black person has achieved their position because they were simply the best, or because they were good enough, and black.
This is not a racist thought.
It’s a rational thing to wonder when a system promotes people based on race.
It’s a thing I’ve wondered about myself, as someone who graduated from Harvard - which had race-conscious admissions.
No amount of insistence that it’s racist will make it racist.
It’s no more racist than it would be to wonder whether a white player got into the NBA off of just performance, if the NBA decided to focus on “fixing” the underrepresentation of white people.
This is the logical downside of race-conscious hiring and admissions.
You can think the downside is worth the upside.
But the downside remains.
Calling people with legitimate concerns racist didn’t protect black people.
It didn’t protect Jason.
It hurt black people who have earned their positions.
And it allowed a troubled man who built his career on lies to rise to a height so great that his fall from grace killed him.
We could have just had the truth.
Instead, we have a tragedy.
🚨 BOMBSHELL: Catherine Herridge just dropped the receipts — China was blackmailing the Biden family and the entire apparatus buried it.
“What we saw in the release of the records, which I'm afraid I think in the media or legacy media there was kind of a willful blindness. They didn't want to look at the records. All you had to do was spend a couple of hours. I found these records which are talking about blackmail by China. It was for President Biden's daily brief. I can conclude, I think, that it was probably about targeting his family”
The legacy media refused to look.
All looked the other way so Democrats could stay in power.
Hunter’s millions from Chinese interests were never a secret to them. Biden’s denials were never challenged. The blackmail angle was never investigated.
This wasn’t ignored by accident. It was protected.
Amplify this now.

RFK Jr. reveals what HHS found when they went looking for the 375,000 migrant kids Biden lost.
"It's a huge, huge tragedy."
"One guy pretended to be the parent of 42 children. We have no idea what happened to those kids."
"We're now finding them. We found about 137,000 of them, but a lot of them you just can't find. There was about 60 kids who were sent to one address. When we looked at that address, it was a container, a steel container in the middle of a parking lot."
"A lot of them were sent to work at slaughterhouses and picking fruits in the fields. They were slaves."
"So we stopped that. Now everybody who comes in has to validate the relationship. We DNA test them to make sure they're related to that kid. Nobody gets a kid unless we know that is the kid's parent or relative."
"It's a huge, huge tragedy. My agency [under Biden] was the single biggest child trafficker in the world."
🚨 NOW: NBC, CBS and ABC face MASS calls to have their FCC privilege licenses reexamined or REVOKED after they refuse to air President Trump's primetime, bombshell address surrounding elections tonight
Are they COLLUDING to filter and censor the President of the United States?
What are they afraid of?!
Good thing X is the media now! IT WILL ALL COME OUT and the people will find out anyway.
@MrDavidAngelo I was stuck in a loop like that and finally said I refused to continue texting with AI and would sue. Within minutes a human texted me and cancelled.
