I learned earlier this year Maja and her website are literally undisclosed propaganda arms of the charter commission and other commissions she's part of.

Oh Maja. That’s bad.

I mean obviously I’m an undisclosed propaganda arm of Future Portland, the multimillion dollar PAC run by “big business.” Vikki lets me drive the Bugatti when she isn’t using it. 😅

She is very subtle in her propaganda and very disciplined. Never responds to any comment on her substack page.

Portlanders lurched FAR to the left at the last election….Upcoming Portland governmental actions and policies are gonna be scary for those that live here and entertaining for those that don’t. Unfortunately I’m in the first category.

Agreed. But I still think we lurched there through ignorance. I don’t think enough is being done to educate people on what they’re actually voting for vs the bumper sticker slogans that attract them.

I hope you’re right. Unfortunately, the recent election results are going to have a lot of negative impacts in Portland.

I appreciate your article. The radical left put together a charter they knew would get the outcome they desired. It is the same playbook from nearly 10 years ago that I encountered in my neighborhood - you would be called a Nazi, they would send in others to attack you online (lots of sock puppet accounts too), label you far right, racist, homophobic - whatever it took. Some bystanders who knew what was happening were too afraid to speak out, or apathetic. The largest portion of people don’t pay attention to their radical anti-American, hateful rhetoric and ideas - and the power they seek. I am not sure we can solely count on the media to tell this story. I am hopeful the average citizens begins to care enough about the health of their city to do some of their own free thinking and research.

Thank you for sending me this article in a private message. Well written. I noticed a couple areas that require attention. I’d go over it and give it one more polish. It sounds reasonable and accurate. These kids will implode on their own, when they can’t communicate with other people in meetings and start screaming about their disabilities and how evil white folks are. Let them. It will be an interesting show. I think Portland is basically beyond hope. Let them show voters who they are. They will and perhaps it will be another lesson for Portlanders who don’t know how to vote and simply don’t have a clue.

This is hilarious. I've never been a DSA member or a member of antifa. And covertly took pics of attendees? I think I took 1 pic and didn't even use it, it wasn't really newsworthy. If you want to talk about my arrests, why don't you go through why I was arrested and the results.
