So apparently the sky is falling because Councilor Morillo wants to move $4.3 million from the camp sweeps budget to… wait for it… housing, food, and community support.
Here’s the deal: Portland spends about $17 million a year on the “Impact Reduction Program.”

If you’re wondering why institutions and people keep failing us, it’s because of capitalism.
Every decision is tied to money.
Will the company lose profits? Will the non-profit lose donors? Will you lose your livelihood?
We choose money, because money is survival.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

The whole "stop poisoning kids" movement in the Portland, OR ICE protests expanded last night, where DHS officials used a green gas (likely Adamsite) in a residential neighborhood and near a school, which may need to be temporarily closed because of it.
Not the first time this has happened.

I am on record telling Portland City Council on Tuesday that PPB’s post-2020 recruitment problem is not one that we should try to solve:
“If recruitment is down because critics of police brutality found popular support, then what attracted people to the job was brutality”
“If recruitment is down because critics of police brutality found popular support, then what attracted people to the job was brutality”
this is how you make sure you only get the biggest psychos onto the police force
“Are you jonesing to fire 40mm less lethal rounds and gas munitions through windows, gables, cameras, and at fleeing suspects?”

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing.
Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

All anti-mask laws—even those with so called “medical exceptions”—stigmatize mask-wearing.
Fewer people wearing masks increases the spread of infectious diseases.
No matter how lawmakers try to spin it, any law that criminalizes wearing a mask endangers public health. Period.

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated.
The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said.

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations
The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.
