Kotek,the Bend Bulletin ate it up. Bullshit. This is musical tents.
You cleared out one encampment at China Hat, shipped the mess 25 miles up the road to Dirt World or wherever the next county line is and now locals are driving past the same garbage piles every day.
The problem didn't disappear,it just got exported to the next county.
Homelessness isn't solved by shuffling addicts and the mentally ill around like deck chairs on the Titanic. Real wins look like enforcing laws,mandatory treatment for the drug-fueled and crazy ones who can't help themselves and stopping the enabling that turns streets into open-air asylums. Billions spent, emergency orders renewed, dashboards glowing... and it's still worse than when you started.
My great-grandpa rode the USS Epping Forest. He got chewed out once for chunking his boot at some worthless cocksucker who woke him up at the wrong damn time. He'd have taken one look at Pete Hegseth,infantry officer who actually did the fucking job in Iraq and Afghanistan, now running the Pentagon and said Hell yeah, that's my kind of SecDef.
You? You're out here stealing your old man's valor for cheap clicks on the 82nd anniversary of D-Day like a limp-dick proxy warrior. Sit the fuck down, Hinck.
Thanks for taking the bait. Appreciate you laser-focusing on that one pixel while the rest of Oregon looks like a third-world landfill. Classic move.
Hereโs five more for ya. All local. Every one. We didn't vote our way into this mess just to pretend the pictures are from California. Clean it up or own it.
Your call, Mr. Governor's fan club.
Lesson time JAYAPAL. All this information is freely available. Defensive Gun Uses (DGUs) when a law-abiding citizen brandishes, points, or fires a gun to stop a crime in progress. Most times, no shots are even fired.
The bad guy just sees steel and decides today ain't the day. Conservative/low-end estimates from the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS, Bureau of Justice Statistics): Roughly 60,000โ70,000 per year. Solid data from 1987โ2021 puts it at 61,000โ65,000 annually. Recent numbers hover around ~69,000 per year (2019โ2023). These come straight from crime victims reporting in large-scale government surveys,the kind researchers across the spectrum call more reliable because they're tied to actual reported incidents, not hypotheticals. Even these likely undercount because plenty of successful defenses never get reported to cops.
Merkley,Hunter Hess isn't some plucky hero turning criticism into community good. He's a real loser who badmouthed the flag he represented on the world stage, then slapped The Real Loser Project on some merch to grift $45k for his feelings.
Trump called it. The kid folded under pressure. This is just participation trophy Olympics bullshit
Merkley,this isn't betraying public service. It's ending the grift where universities treat students like ATM machines and politicians like you promise unicorns with other people's money.
Nurses and teachers have been getting hammered by the same cost explosion everyone else has. Capping the loans forces accountability upstream instead of kicking the can to taxpayers.
Kotax the blue-haired commie bitch in Salem wants you and every other red blooded Oregonian disarmed yesterday. Why? So her fentanyl slinging Sinaloa pals can keep the human cattle pipeline wide open. Women, kids, the whole menu,all while the streets of Portland turn into a goddamn war zone and nobody's got the tools to push back.
These numbers right here are easy to find out plain as day for anybody not huffing their own patchouli FARTS.
A $100 grocery basket at the start of each administration ends up costing this much more by the finish line.
Clinton: 23% over two full terms.
Obama: 15% cumulative. The "hope and change" miracle of low inflation while they printed just enough to keep the party going. Biden: 21.5% cumulative and thatโs in one term, sweetheart.
Faster than Clinton's whole eight years,with none of the it was the 90s, prices always go up a bit excuse.
Your little sob story about families struggling with grocery costs while we fund ICE and border security? That's rich coming from the team that supercharged this inflation with spending sprees,money printing and open border chaos that drove up housing,wages and everything else.
You clowns wrecked the price level,then cry about it like itโs somebody else's fault.
@grandpamac63@TracieJames777 Solar has its place,especially with storage and in sunnier spots,but pretending snow makes it "work even better" overall in winter is misleading cope. It underperforms precisely when grids need reliable dispatchable power most.
Rupar LIES again. Your entire feed is just vibes and cherry-picked clips while real grids freeze their asses off.
Germany went all in on the Energiewende fairy tale. Massive solar rollout. Then Dunkelflaute hits,those lovely winter dark doldrums where the sun hides, panels ice over and output craters to basically jack shit for days. Wind dies,too.
Guess what fills the gap? Coal, gas and scrambling for backups they swore they wouldn't need. Solar isn't "irrelevant" like it's zero,it's just a seasonal fair-weather friend at northern latitudes. Great for summer surpluses,dogshit for winter peak demand when days are short,skies are gray and people actually need reliable heat and lights.
Chris Wright dropped a basic engineering reality check during a coal plant event,backed by actual winter storm data,coal ramping hard while solar/wind dipped.
You slapping "(this, dear reader, is false)" on it like some snarky newsletter doesn't rewrite physics or European winter blackouts scares. Next time,try data over gotchas, Aaron. The sun don't give a shit about your narrative.
