Conspiracy theories can be fun but they are not all true. The 2026 hurricane quiet season has a known physical cause. A very strong El Niño is producing record-high wind shear across the tropical Atlantic. Shear rips the tops off developing storms before they can organize into hurricanes. Meteorologists forecasted a below-normal season for that reason months ago. That matches what we are seeing: six weak tropical storms, zero hurricanes, latest first hurricane since

1. ICE was removing an illegal who had plenty of opportunity to self-deport 2. It is the business of a government to enforce borders and repel invaders 3. Who was employing him?

As head of HR, in the last 24 hrs, I have had to tell two different employees to stop "putting your dick in crazy".

This level of learned helplessness if insane. If you truly cannot operate even the most basic life decisions reliably perhaps you should just live at home forever? Maybe seek out adult daycare? You are an adult toddler asking the world to conform to your every need

I will never forget how good Darrell was to me. Especially when I was coming up. He always talked to me like I was somebody before I ever was.

Happy September 21st, ya’ll! 🎉 Forget the troubles and struggles for a moment. We “dancin’ in September”…. Drop where you are - Southern Cali, USA🇺🇸

Let’s handle this like 1998

BAHAHAHAHA 😂

How is it possible that the entire universe has supposedly been evolving for about 14 billion years, yet all these things happening "for the first time in history" are taking place right now—while you are living your life, which, statistically speaking, is almost impossible in itself? Just think about it.

This might be one of the first things in a long time both sides can agree on..

This is blatantly false information. These lands are already held in trust and under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, these lands are required to generate revenues for education to roads etc, that offset taxes. What's actually happening is merely an annual application process for conveyance. The Trump admin, like the Biden administration before it, must review use permits for data centers—a statutory mandate passed by Congress. The real issue is that one permit under review would give a conveyance to a data center that was previously for a solar plant. That plant didn't get built so now the Trump administration is considering new applicants after calling wind and solar an inefficient use of federal lands. doi.gov/pressreleases/secret… It's not the end of the world. And it's certainly no billionaire buddy conspiracy theory. But it IS campaign season, so the truth is the first casualty.

We have given Tina Kotek enough time to remove or correct her lie. So here’s the facts. Here’s the short version received last night from the person who actually coordinated the roundtable: “December: I’m an Oregon small-business owner who made a viral post about businesses drowning here. I emailed BOTH Kotek and Drazan asking them to meet with business owners. Kotek’s office directed me to an online contact form, which I also submitted. I never received a response. Drazan personally called me. We talked for about 45 minutes, which led to the Feb. 10 roundtable. Feb. 10: I co-hosted the roundtable just 8 days after unexpectedly losing my mom. About 10 business owners from different industries attended. We discussed taxes, payroll costs, regulation, permitting, land use and the realities of trying to operate and grow in Oregon. It was NOT presented to us as a fundraiser or donor event, nor did we donate a dollar to anyone! We brought coffee and donuts! That’s all we contributed to the meeting. Drazan listened and later brought issues we’d discussed into her legislative work. Yes, she missed SB 1527 while meeting with us. She was officially excused, the Senate passed it 29–0, and her vote could not have changed the outcome. She was back at the Capitol that afternoon. March: Drazan brought five of us to the Capitol and arranged 7 meetings with legislators. We learned how to testify and advocate directly. August: She followed up with the roundtable attendees. After reading my response, she personally called me again for about 30 minutes, helped me think through my development/permitting issue and suggested meeting with a county commissioner. I took her advice and have that meeting Sept. 23. So when Kotek’s campaign posted today that Drazan “skipped the vote to meet with business donors,” it pissed me off. I organized that room. We were business owners asking our government to listen—not people who showed up to write checks. The irony is that I invited BOTH of them to listen. Drazan called me. Kotek’s office never even responded. That’s the story I want people to know.” So once again, Kotek and her staff have lied to Oregonians. This wasn’t about “donors”-this was about hearing concerns. Something that Kotek can’t do because she would have to own up to her failures, there are many, and actually face Oregonians. If you’re a small business owner and you vote for Kotek then you are voting to seal your fate. If you want someone willing to listen and be available? Then Drazan is your candidate. This timeline from what I can tell is very accurate. #oregon #elections @ChristineDrazan @TeamDrazan

A little lengthier video than I normally post, but you'll probably learn something new by the end of it. :)

The number of people who don't understand the definition of "literall" is astonishing.

“Important progress?!” Since you took office, Portland area homelessness shot up 61%, Oregon now has the highest unemployment rate out of any state in the nation, most families say they can’t cover a $400 emergency and less than half of 3rd graders can read and do math at grade level. That is failure by definition.

Val Hoyle just voted against a bill to fight fraud! Val Hoyle currently is under federal investigation over the La Mota cannabis scandal, after she personally vouched for a $554,000 federal grant to Rosa Cazares's nonprofit that state regulators later called illegal and clawed back. Her net worth spiked over 200% in under three years, the same stretch in which she failed to report 200+ stock trades, a violation of the law under the STOCK Act. Now she has voted NO on the National Fraud Enforcement Division Act, a bipartisan bill to fight federal fraud that passed the House 352 to 72. Every Republican voted yes. Val Hoyle doesn’t look out for us, she only looks out for herself. #DeployMonique #OR04 #vote
