It was an honor to attend the 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team Demobilization Ceremony Yesterday.

Watching more than 200 soldiers reunite with their families was a powerful reminder of the commitment, resilience and professionalism that define the men and women of the Oregon National Guard. Their service reflects the very best of our state and our country.

Oregon is proud to welcome you home!

Home Forward — Oregon’s biggest affordable housing outfit — just lost its CFO as the whole thing craters into oblivion.

$35 million deficit, 955 empty low-income units while Portland’s homelessness crisis explodes, and the former CEO blew over $100k in taxpayer-funded travel.

Mayor Wilson himself warned the portfolio is on the brink of collapse.

Another round of leadership musical chairs while working families and rural Oregon foot the bill for Portland’s experiments which inevitably fail.

Taxpayers keep paying, the tents keep multiplying.

When does real accountability hit Salem and the metro machine?

ALL ARE EQUAL. SOME, MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

When the weather turns this hot and dry, I don’t blame governments for imposing burn bans.
I do object to the double standard applied to the benefit of the so-called homeless.
Multnomah and Washington Counties have banned all forms of burning including land clearing and even recreational stuff like your backyard fire pit.
A single ember could destroy property and put lives in danger.
So, why don’t these rules apply double to those who make their homes in homeless shanty camps?
I figure it’s politics. The homeless population of Portland makes up less than 2 percent of the population. But the city’s Fire Bureau says almost half of all fires it responds to are caused by the homeless.
The homeless cook and heat with fires, both propane and wood. And if a fire threatens to get out of control, where do you suppose they find a garden hose on those tents?
I only wish the mainstream legacy media would go out to the homeless camps, show the burn ban violations. Then question officials about why the same rules don’t apply to all of us equally….or are the homeless, like illegal aliens, more equal than others..

🚨 BREAKING: The FBI raided the Portland home of an ILLEGAL ALIEN who was shining lasers at military helicopters

Turns out, he also lived with THREE OTHER ILLEGALS, and all of them are now in ICE custody, being processed for deportation.

LMAO! FAFO! 🤣

We all feel it… The cost of living in Oregon has gotten out of hand. Groceries, gas, rent, and utilities make our paychecks seem smaller and smaller each month.

Ever wondered how Oregon stacks up to the rest of the nation?

Little Itty Bitty Jeff Merkley's FAIR Elections Act is nothing more than a First Amendment Violation.

He aims to criminalize election related memes, shields state election officials from accountability, limits federal data comparisons for voter eligibility, and MOST IMPORTANTLY...

PREVENTS THE PURGING OF DIRTY VOTER ROLLS.

Instead of securing your voice at the polls, Democrats are fighting for crooked elections and attacking your God given right to ridicule communists.

Chris Gardner traveled from Carlton, Oregon to Gresham, Oregon to go meet a 13 year old girl.. while his wife thought he was with a friend.

He admitted to groping a 12 year old years ago.

Adios, Chris!

What do you think Oregon?

Oregon’s IP28 is going to go down as one of the most controversial signature drives in state history.

They say it’s about stopping animal cruelty, but here’s what it actually does:

• Bans all hunting and fishing — licensed or not. Turns them into animal ab*se under the law (strips every legal protection)

• Makes trapping illegal

• Shuts down commercial dairy and meat production

• Reclassifies normal breeding practices for food animals as se*ual ass*ult crimes

• No exemptions for Oregon Tribes

We’re talking 330,000+ licensed hunters and their families, another 500,000 anglers, and 37,000 farms & ranches that would get wiped out — along with all those jobs.

This isn’t just about sportsmen.

It’s a massive overreach that hits rural Oregon hard, discriminates against Tribes, and will drive up food costs for every Oregonian.

Bottom line: Vote NO on IP28.

[Taren Feist @tarenfeist]

OREGON — HD32 voters: Don't forget who cast the deciding vote to raise your gas taxes.

Cyrus Javadi, first elected as a Republican in 2022, helped pass the gas tax, then switched parties and is now running as a Democrat!!!

If that's not a betrayal of voters, what is?

Please do not let him get away with this. Elect Max Sherman and put a Republican in Salem who will fight for taxpayers instead of selling them out.

OREGON REFUSES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NATIONAL FAIR DURING THE CELEBRATION OF OUR COUNTRIES 250th BIRTHDAY!

Oregon has pulled out of being a part of this national event because our hated governor hates our President.

Please don’t blame the patriots that live here. We hate our governor and she is telling everyone she is speaking for everyone. SHE ABSOLUTELY IS NOT!

THE ONLY PEOPLE SHE REPRESENTS ARE HER GAY AND TRANS FRIENDS, and all the illegals she is giving free services to.

We are paying on average $90,000.00 to illegals to live here. They get free housing, healthcare, food and a reloadable credit card. The federal government just cut off our state from SNAP because illegals were benefiting from the program.

We have a huge homeless population here and instead of helping them, she is giving away all these free services to illegals.

Our Dept of Motor Vehicles signed up the illegals so they can illegally vote in our elections.

Since VBM began here, we have not been able to vote any republican in for governorship. Democrats here cheat and between almost double the amount of voter names on our voter rolls, we lose every time.

The vast majority of Oregonians love our President and love our country. That number is growing daily.

WE HATE OUR GOVERNOR!

Our state has been highjacked by the democrats.

We’re doing everything we can and hope to elect a republican in November for governor.

A Trantifa militant part of a violent Antifa cell in Portland is posting about the need for trans violence and vengeance.

He says he still has a shotgun after it was possibly overlooked by the @PortlandPolice after his home was raided following a shooting attack involving the cell in December 2025.

"This Winchester is the only gun I got left after the bastards at the Portland Police Bureau ransacked my last home and took the others," the militant wrote on Instagram. "Either they were nice enough to let me have it, or they overlooked it because they were dumb as f."

I didn't have Oregon's Maxine Dexter getting sued for defamation by the Vice President of The United States but it appears this is where we are.

Dexter is nothing but a propaganda slut and a stain on Oregon. Shut this hag down.

After heart surgery, the parents of a 13-year-old girl were told that their daughter was dying, and that they should start making end-of-life decisions, including donating her organs.

Upon transferring their daughter to another hospital however, they were told that doctors at Oregon Health and Science University had installed her new heart valve upside down.

“Doctors at Seattle Children's removed the inverted valve and replaced it with a different one, properly positioned. Her heart promptly began to function correctly. She was successfully taken off cardiac bypass and no longer required ECMO.

Her condition continued to stabilize over the following days in Seattle Children's ICU. After more than a month in critical condition, she was able to return home with her parents.”
