The PBA/PPA junta is very annoyed that it couldn't buy this seat, so they're re-running the same weird transexterminationist piece of shit.
Say, is there a reason the far-right is so obsessed with this guy?

Elders tell of great farms along Marine Dr and Columbia Blvd cared for by Japanese farmers before the internment of over 3,600 Japanese-Portlanders during WWII. The bounty of their work they brought to markets. Here's a photo of a farmers float made with veggies in the 1920 Rose Festival.

It's a lovely night to spread some Portland Frog rocks around Streets of Tanasbourne. This outdoor mall in Hillsboro has been the target of many ICE detainments and harassment.

Councilor Smith asks very incisive questions about why the Mayor is putting forward a budget that cuts from City staff in order to spend $100M on shelter outside of the Inter-Governmental Agreement wit Multnomah County on homelessness.
She is not grilling an intern or newbie. Jordan runs the City.

I went back and watched this exchange today, and the response to Smith’s questions (from her colleagues and the O) encapsulates something that holds Portland back.
It is absolutely insane that the City Administrator, who makes $300K+/yr, couldn’t answer this question.

Hey, "the cost of doing nothing" is my line. In Multnomah County, we are spending $500 million on telecommunication services EVERY YEAR. The high-ball CTC feasibility study estimate was it would cost $950 million (ONCE) to own our own network. #OwnDontRent

You can't end homelessness without housing.
Portland's Mayor removed the expert leading us toward proven solutions (social housing = what works in Vienna).
The City Council voted unanimously for this work. Our community deserves better.
