Vastly underreported angle to Sameer Kanal as Council President --- the guy used to run model U.N. conferences. He quite literally understands the importance of bringing together diverse perspectives to overcome contentious issues.

ICE needs to be taken apart, brick by brick, and we need to salt the earth.

City officials are in a briefing right now with police chief Bob Day and police union president Aaron Schmautz.
A group of anti-ICE protestors yelled “revoke the permit” at Police Chief Bob Day as he entered 25 mins ago. (There is no threat to City Hall and this is likely unrelated, just a scene.)

Portland city council was abruptly recessed moments ago and councilors are now in a meeting. High tensions but no one is talking in an official capacity at the moment. Will keep you posted.

I think it’s honestly disgusting and deeply unserious that the Revoke the Permit people have clipped videos of my women colleagues eating pizza at the dais as some kind of shaming tool, which is now being used by right-wing media to harass them in misogynistic ways. Congrats everyone.

Gresham's new East County Library is incredible! It's no branch library, but a flagship like Central Library downtown. It's credited to Portland's Holst Architecture, but the design came equally (or more) from Ghanaian-Brit starchitect David Adjaye (who was dropped before construction). WOW.

Disagreement on policy is welcome and reasonable, but calling me a Nazi for cosponsoring an ordinance to ban price-fixing is completely unacceptable. Councilor Ryan edited his post, but did not disclose the edit and explain the nature of the substantive change, so it’s here for posterity.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern. Late last night, I woke up to my car, car port, and home engulfed in flames. I'm grateful for the quick response from Portland firefighters who prevented the fire from spreading even further.
