‼️Well would you look at that. Kotek- your smear campaign is not going to work… Here is a post by Nicole Riehl on Facebook spitting facts… 👇🏻👇🏻

I WAS IN THAT ROOM. So let’s talk about what actually happened.

Governor Kotek’s campaign says Christine Drazan “skipped the vote to meet with business donors.”

I helped coordinate that meeting. We were NOT there as “business donors.” We were Oregon small-business owners asking our government to LISTEN.

That meeting happened eight days after my mom died. I was grieving, exhausted and still showed up because what is happening to small businesses in Oregon matters that much to me. Other business owners took time away from their businesses and families to show up too.

We talked about taxes, regulation, permitting, employment costs and the barriers Oregon businesses are facing.

Here’s the context that post leaves out:

The bill Drazan missed passed 29–0. Her vote would not have changed the outcome. She spent that hour listening to Oregon business owners and was back in Salem that afternoon for a Senate committee hearing.

And the article Kotek’s own campaign linked describes the meeting as a roundtable with business leaders discussing the challenges of operating and growing Oregon businesses and creating jobs.

Yet somehow that became:

“Skipped the vote to meet with business donors.”

See how much context can disappear in six words?

And here’s what makes this especially frustrating for me:

I reached out to Governor Kotek’s office asking her to meet with us about these exact issues. Her office didn’t even respond to my email.

Christine Drazan called me directly and listened to me. She the. Followed up with actions after the round table and still is following up and calling, 7 months later.

She showed up. She listened. She took action.

Then Kotek’s campaign turned the business owners her own office wouldn’t even respond to into a political attack line.

I was there. I know why we were in that room.

This isn’t about red vs. blue for me. It’s about telling the whole truth and listening to the people trying to keep businesses alive in this state.

Governor Tina Kotek for Oregon, the invitation still stands.

Come sit down with us as business owners. We have plenty to say.

BREAKING: The Washington State Supreme Court has just overturned another law passed by voters, ruling that the initiative protecting your right to use natural gas in your home and business is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Unreal.

This should have been done long ago. So sick of Congress acting like they rule over us! They work for us but have managed to conveniently forget this!!

President Trump is asking everyone to share this, in three days, most people in the United States will have seen the message. This is an idea that should be passed around, regardless of political party.

The TRUMP Rules:

1. Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. And no more perks go with them.

2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress must purchase their own retirement plan, just as ALL Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise at the same rate as the COLA for monthly Social Security recipients minus 1% if having a budget balance deficit.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system (Medicare) as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people (i.e. NO MORE INSIDER TRADING!!!).

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congress made all these contracts by and for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor and privilege, NOT a career.

The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work … not get all kinds of freebies. Term limits of 2 terms and treat them like a regular citizen.

This is heartbreaking. Just glad I got to experience a much simpler life. We did not realize how good we had it.

We had no idea how good we had it and no clue that we were the last ones 😭😭😭

🚨 FORMER HEALTHCARE CEO GOES VIRAL EXPOSING WHAT AMERICANS FEED THEIR KIDS — NOW PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT HIS SAFETY

He starts pulling apart foods millions of Americans, including children, eat every single day.

Pork.
Cheese.
Frozen desserts.

Then he starts naming ingredients and production methods he claims most Americans have absolutely no idea they’re consuming.

He says the same system Americans trust to approve medicines is also allowing things into the food supply that he says he refuses to put in his own body.

Then he reveals his background:

“I used to be a CEO, a former healthcare administrator.”

“I can go get a $300,000 to $500,000-a-year job again to poison you… but I found a soul.”

Now the clip is exploding online and people are saying they’re worried about his safety after hearing what he’s willing to say publicly.

If this stuff is really safe, why don’t other countries want it in their food?

Dear President Trump,
I live in the beautiful state of Oregon. I have lived here over 50 years. There is no more beautiful state than Oregon with the Columbia River on our northern edge of our state. We have two beautiful mountain ranges and vast desserts. It’s been carefully designed by God.
Our state is in near collapse with the democratic chokehold of the democratic party. We have a crazed democrat governor that is up for reelection in November. We have never had a governor that has been so out of cinque with what Oregonians want, in my lifetime.
She has destroyed our state. Rose City Antifa has ruled downtown Portland. Some of our largest businesses have already left the state, with more to follow. Daily people are packing up their entire lives and leaving Oregon.
The tax burdens have become excessive with more to follow, always. I am an avid supporter of you and your administration sir. Our state wants Kotek removed from office. In November we have the chance to vote for a republican governor. The republican candidate running against her has been a head in the polls for a couple of months.
People of Oregon loath our governor. She is right up there at the top of list of worst governors in our country. She is taxing us to death, and she plans on forcing onto her Universal Healthcare plan next year that has been reported to cost us many more times what we are currently paying.
She has never listened to the will of the people. She has an entire administration and the democratic party behind her. It has been over 40 years since we have had a republican governor.
This is the first chance we have had  to elect a republican governor again. But sir, it’s not going to happen if we don’t have divine intervention.
Our state is riddled with democratically controlled election workers that are committing fraud. They will not even allow the Republican election monitors to sit near the area where the ballots are counted. Some have reported that they have to sit 20’ away. Others have reported that they have a special room they have to sit, with an observation window to view through. One observer was not allowed to enter the building to take her shift.
Numerous people reported receiving letters from their county election office telling them their ballot had been eliminated because their signatures on the ballot didn’t match their voter registration card. These were republicans, and they had not changed their signatures.
We of course have Vote by Mail, and after our state went to that form of election, people we know should have won, didn’t.
Sir, our state deserves and needs to be included in the states that you are looking in for voter fraud.
Our Secretary of State Dan Rayfield is doing everything he can to stop USPS from sending out ballots because he knows he won’t keep his job.
He sent out a message on X yesterday stating that our ballots were ready to be put into the mail, and we should expect to see them soon. Sir, we have never received ballots prior to 3 weeks of any election. He is doing everything he can to make sure our elections fail.
Please President Trump, help us. Secretary Mullin put out a post on X yesterday   stating the states that DHS would be sending out federal employees to look into the fraud and make sure the Dominion counting machines aren’t tampered with. It was with great disappointment; I heard Oregon was not among the states included.
We desperately want to turn our state RED and begin to make our state Great Again, too. Without your help sir, we will be left with this  person that is catering to illegal immigrants and her tran/gay community. We will be totally lost if we don’t see real change in this state. The only way we can begin to recover is if we are able to elect the true winner for governorship. It is my belief we will have the opportunity if we make sure our elections are conducted with integrity.

Dear Oregon, California, Washington, Virginia, and New York homesteaders.
Hang in there.
I’m in Oregon right now. I’ve talk to a lot of you. The pull to leave is real. The rules, the culture, the taxes, the feeling that the ground under you is shifting the wrong way. Friends are packing for Tennessee, Idaho, the Ozarks. I get it.
Look around anyway.
Count your children. Count the land. You and your friends are having a lot of children. Right now. And more coming.
If you hold a 25-year vision instead of a 2-year one, this thing turns.
Somebody has to stay. Somebody has to keep the soil, the barns, the churches, the little schools, and the actual neighborhoods from going all one way. You don’t have to win the next election. You have to still be here when the kids who are in diapers right now start having kids of their own.
Think long. Plant what you won’t sit under. Hang in there.
Somebody’s got to stay

[marbear @pagemarb007]

@GovTinaKotek Your precious "vote" by mail system is the only reason the likes of you hold public office in Oregon.

[marbear @pagemarb007]

@nicksortor Take that @GovTinaKotek. No more cheating.
