100% agree with you on Deshaun Watson but I can say it this way there’s 46 million reasons to play him from an owner’s point of view.
To me, let’s write him off the books, clearly they want one last return on their investment or an attempted return on their investment.
Bridgewater was suspended from coaching his high school alma mater team in 2025 for covering food and transportation costs for his players while seeking financial aid from supporters.
The vote was 38-0.
@tarenfeist@Oregon_GOP 100% agree however if Portland looses blazers might as well close Portland and turn it back into a forest. Long term we have to remove current leadership.
As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.
What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.
The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.
I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.
Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.
We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.
Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.
And here we though measure 110 would work. Instead it’s making it worse. Another miss for the democrats. How about send them to jail and specifically a drug rehab unit where they are forced off the drugs that are killing them.
A couple hours ago, there were at least a half dozen deaths/dead bodies found that were OD related (all within an hour), including one in Old Town, one downtown around 4th and Washington, one near a hotel on Sandy Blvd, and one on 96th and SE Division. It’s very probable that a particularly deadly batch of fentanyl is currently circulating Portland.
This is absurd. Simple fix, let trans identified compete with themselves. As well as the women should just protest and not race or form their own race.
Quit the day of the race if you didn’t know any different before the race began.
A trans-identified male is dominating the women's category of a 2,500km ultra-distance cycling challenge in Ireland.
Cara Dixon is currently ahead of his female competitors by almost 300km.

God gave children to parents, not civil governments. As dads and moms, it is our sacred responsibility to raise our sons and daughters and teach them true Truth. 🙏🏼🔥🇺🇸 https://t.co/MpA6xOgq2t
I didn’t want to say I told you so but I’ve been saying this will happen all along. I think overall it’s a good idea, especially if they offer some balance to employees. I expect more and more major corporations to follow. https://t.co/05FMjHTg3i
About time - funny it’s after so many tax paying citizens left the county. Hard to pay for governmental services when you don’t have a strong tax base.
