I think proprietors at public fairs should be able to sell the shirts to anyone stupid and hateful enough to buy them.

That said, my questions to any Drumf supporters who have yet to figure out that he is a criminal Israel-first NYC ‘liberal’ anti-American fascist is this:

1. Are YOU ready to be confined at ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ when the next fascist Dem is installed in the white house by Israel and the bankers and the American oligarch’s who run the divide and conquer operation called America?
2. Do you think the deep state tyrants that run the Drumf’s and Biden’s are EVER going to dismantle the gulag they are currently building?
3. Are you aware of the fascism the world experienced during ‘covid’ by the tech/farma/banker/war fascists, masquerading as Democrats AND Republicans?
4. Are you familiar with the Trucker Protests in Canada? In three years Dems will be in power. Do you really want Kamala or Gavin Newsom or Hillary to have this gulag as an option?

Drumf gave 45-billion dollars TO THE PRISON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX! That’s about as much as Clinton gave his jailer buddies when he and his racist wife started throwing thousands of American blacks into prisons. The gulag-runners could care less about schools and bridges and peace: the criminal humans who have usurped America are evil.

CONSERVATIVES AND CHRISTIANS WILL BE THROWN INTO THESE GULAG’S IN JUST A FEW YEARS! MARK MY WORDS!

Biden corrupts the border, fully, as planned. Drumf brings in the fascist state to ’solve’ Biden’s ‘problem’. It’s all done on purpose folks, and Israel was very, very active in Mexico funneling folks over the border. Biden’s homeland Security goon Myorkas, is a Cuban-born Israel-first Jewish guy, and he went to Panama and personally oversaw this massive human smuggling operation which was/is designed to enslave or imprison all of us in the years to come. Well, the free-thinkers anyway. The sell-outs will always have the ‘freedom’ of servitude.

This below is from Infowars, which, sadly, has been totally corrupted. I had been a huge fan of Alex Jones. The following is being reported on Infowars as a good thing:

“With the passage of President Trump’s flagship “Big Beautiful Bill,” massive expansion of detention capacity and deportation operations is planned. The Trump administration has now awarded $1.26 billion to build the nation’s largest detention and deportation center, in Texas. The center will be constructed at Fort Bliss, a million-acre site close to El Paso, on the Mexican border, with its own airport. There will be room for 5,000 beds in heated and air-conditioned tents.

An ICE official told Bloomberg that the federal government “is indeed pursuing all available options to expand bedspace capacity. This process does include housing detainees at certain military bases.” A week ago, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed the Department of Homeland Security will construct new detention facilities on other military bases, in Indiana and New Jersey.

According to a recent report from The Wall Street Journal, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is rushing to expand its detention capacity, after receiving $45 billion in extra funding after the passing of President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. The goal is to expand capacity from 40,000 to 100,000 before the end of the year. This will be done, in part, by building a large network of tent camps nationwide.”

FOLKS LIVING HERE ILLEGALLY CAN BE DEPORTED WITHOUT BUILDING A $45 BILLION DOLLAR GULAG

Yet it is being built, sold to us ‘American freedom’.

And right on cue:

An authoritarian’s dream, dystopian license plate readers are ALL OVER OREGON.

And the globalist’s favorite Dem Senator, ranking CIA-committee member Ron ‘lyin’ Wyden is happy about it!

NO MATTER YOUR POLITICS YOUR FREEDOMS ARE BEING TAKEN FROM YOU VERY, VERY RAPIDLY

Below, Wyden pretend to care about your freedom: he does not, at all!

Also, ADMINS CHANGE – reread as necessary. If you think throwing Drumf supporters or J6ers in jail is a good thing, just wait until YOUR on the list.

“First they came for the whomever and I did nothing…blah blah blah, then the Nazis came for me…etc etc.”

THAT IS WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW

AND THE DEMS ARE JUST AS BAD AS DRUMF IF NOT WORSE

Didn’t take the bird-flu vax? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag! Bird-flu outbreak in your neighborhood? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag! Actively woking against Israeli genocide? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag! Used up your carbon credits for the month? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag! Support trans surgeries for children? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag! DON’T support trans surgeries for children? No driving or you will be arrested and thrown into the gulag!

Of course, if you drive a Tesla, Elon will simply turn his cars off. Same for any internet-connected car, most of which are electric or hybrid.

I found this from Nissan in 2-seconds:
www.riverheadnissan.com/2025/03/04/can-police-remotely-turn-off-a-nissan

The globalist tech/farma/banker transhumanist types are evil and insane. We all need to figure out their divide and conquer operation and soon, as the globalists have it out for America, and all nation-states, actually. These tyrants live on jets and on islands and on yachts and to them nations are only a set of laws, a set of encumbrances, that they prefer not to have around, hence all of these totalitarian moves toward global-wide fascism, run by them and their A.I./tech.

So yeah Drumf supporters, buy your Alligator Alcatraz shirts at the fair because you might just end up living there yourselves.

City officials have demonstrated a troubling public process to address important community projects. The steps look something like this: identify the issue, hire consultants who come and convene citizens at one or more public meetings to view proposed design drawings and give feedback in order to establish their project priorities. The City forms its “team” of staff and consultants, develops a budget to achieve the expectations voiced by the public and then starts spending money. Basic to the methodology is a pattern of City officials saying whatever is expedient during the planning phase to move the project forward and counting on citizens to forget what they were told once the project begins.

Take the City Hall project. The City Manager claimed during the planning meetings that hiring Klosh as an “owner’s representative” was necessary and they would be a vital project team member, in essence a consultant to oversee the other project consultants to achieve cost savings. According to the City Manager “the owner’s representative needs to save as much money as you are spending on your owner’s representative through the process… and we will achieve that.”

The City Council hired Klosh for the project and approved a maximum budget of $133,354 for their services. I recently asked the City for some specific examples of where Klosh saved the project money over the past four years. The City could not identify any cost savings now claiming “Their (Klosh) contributions aren’t measured in specific dollar amounts “. I would imagine that four years ago, citizens understood that the reason, as described by the City Manager for hiring Klosh, would result in the City saving money on the project. We are now to understand that there is no way to evaluate the cost saving promise because no attempt was apparently made to document what if any cost savings were achieved. While City officials attempt to explain this, they should also explain why the total payments to Klosh far exceeded the approved maximum of $133,354 that the Council told us that they would pay for this service.

Remember during the public outreach process when the team presented a combined City Hall and Police station with a foundation that would withstand a major Cascadia event. The design featured dedicated space for an EVC emergency center, south sloping City Hall roof to maximize solar capture, extensive clerestory windows for natural light, cedar shake horizontal siding etc.. It was described as an architectural style with materials that would reflect the unique character of the City that citizens said they wanted, specifically mentioning a City Hall to complement the Library and First Security Bank. We didn’t get any of that. As an adjoining property owner to the project describes it, we ended up with a sheep barn and a loafing shed.

The Classic Street project now underway seems to be following the pattern.

A project Budget is adopted, a modified project bid process that we were told would ” likely result in substantial cost savings and other substantial benefits to the City” was adopted, consultants who we are told are uniquely qualified to do the project are assembled for the team, design drawings are presented to the public and construction timeliness announced. Unfortunately, the project starts unraveling in real time while memories are still fresh.

The City’s proposed project Budget proved to be inadequate, then after spending approximately $450,000 for a design, legal fees, public presentations and bids the City quietly terminated the services of the project engineers. The new bid process then comes into question with potential litigation against the City on the part of one bidder. The City’s mishandling of the project has resulted in funds wasted, a more costly boring of the water line under the existing failing pavement and months of delay ensuring greater total project costs. Expect a scaled down design from what was presented in March with the City having to pay the additional project expenses.

Perhaps the citizen who offered his take on the look of City Hall was on to something. Residents who bear the consequences and foot the bills resulting from our City official’s decisions on these community projects should be even more wary about future projects now that the City has occupied the sheep barn and the fleecing can continue in a new City Hall that as of now, we still have no idea how much more the final total cost will be from what we were originally told.

Please boycott ‘ANY’ county fair that is selling these T-shirts!

Lane County Fair merchandise raises eyebrows and concerns
Jul 25, 2025 Updated 16 hrs ago 34
Alligator Alcatraz T-shirts

EUGENE, Ore. – The Lane County Fair is drawing crowds with its thrilling rides, lively music, and delicious food. However, some fair merchandise is causing controversy among attendees.

Social media is buzzing with disapproval and anger over T-shirts being sold that depict Alligator Alcatraz. This makeshift immigration detention facility was established by the Trump administration in the Florida Everglades and has been criticized by human rights groups as cruel and inhumane.

“Honestly it’s kind of sad,” said Jasper Burchard, a concerned fairgoer. “It’s really sad to see something so messed up just being paraded around like it’s something fun. It’s sad to see something in general but to see someone wearing merch of it.”

Fair officials acknowledged that they are aware of the shirts being sold but did not provide any further comment.

As the Lane County Fair continues, the controversy over these T-shirts remains a topic of discussion among attendees and the wider community.

FYI I have inquired if the Tillamook County Fair will have a booth selling these T-shirts and have not recieved a response. Is anyone aware if they are, please reply here and to me.

Posted on Tillamook County Pioneer July 23, 2025

On July 18, the Republican controlled Congress passed a bill that eliminates two years of previously approved federal-funding for Public Broadcasting. Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) lost $5 million – nine percent of its budget. Meanwhile, President Trump has spent an estimated $56 million tax-payer dollars to play golf during the past six months.

This bill wasn’t a money saving measure. It wasn’t passed to root out fraud or stop wasteful spending. It was passed by the sycophants of a tyrant because he doesn’t approve of the content – his lies cannot stand in the light of truth. This bill was a blatant attack on freedom of the press – a First Amendment Right.

OPB provides news, information, entertainment, and community connection through radio, television, and the internet. It provides warnings in rural areas about natural disasters. Big Bird and friends have taught children how to read, count and get along for fifty years. Federal funding allowed OPB programming to reach remote rural areas. OPB is brought to Tillamook through KTMK FM.

Without a strong independent source of news and information, one-source news that flatters the present administration will allow it to continue its abuse of power. Misinformation will be accepted as truth. Democracy as we have known it, and for which so many over these past 250 years fought and died, will decline.

Oregon Public Broadcasting needs the public’s support now more than ever (opb.org). The public needs Oregon Public Broadcasting more than ever before.

Sincerely,
Ruth LaFrance

PROTEST REMINDER-We’ll be in Wheeler on Saturday, July 26, from noon to 2 PM. The location is the bay side of Hwy. 101 and Rorvik Street. There is lots of parking in Wheeler. Please remember we want to stay out of the areas where businesses are located. Common courtesy. Wheeler is working on the restrooms near this area so please do not expect these restrooms to be open. The focus of this PROTEST is “FAMILIES FIRST”.

Protecting our healthcare and feeding people doesn’t seem to be at the top of the list for our National Government. Nor is it important in Gaza. What a tragic situation they are going through. How can we change this? Well, first we need to let our Senators and Representatives know they are not serving the people who are keeping this country going. Our Senators and Representatives are serving the elite. If we let them keep going in this direction, we can only blame ourselves for the damage we are doing to our Country and the World. Please stand up for Democracy! Put our families first and protect our health care!

Bring a chair if you need one (I do), consider layers of clothing as the wind may pick up, if you have signs, please bring them, otherwise we have extra signs. Water would be good to bring. Bring a good attitude as we are PEACEFUL PROTEST. Please leave your off-color signs at home as we want to promote “FAMILIES FIRST” and negative signs will only defeat the cause.

Thank you all so much for being PROTESTERS. We do have the freedom to PROTEST. We will never give up. You are one of so many here in the USA who are protesting what is going on in the government today. Hope to see you in Wheeler on Saturday.

Best,
Patty

Kudos to bigbeach
The comprehensive response by ‘bigbeach’ and the links that were provided are all worth everyone’s attention.

A point was made that red team/blue team has little to do with policy and it’s true. That artificial divide is designed to train our focus on a political circus every two to four years, like sheep in a chute. Americans need to look over the walls of that chute to know who they should choose to lead, and for that, some historical perspective is sorely needed.
David Talbot’s, The Devils Chessboard, elucidates machinations which formed the pre WWII deep state, and overlaps Whitney Webb’s two part, exhaustive work, One Nation Under Blackmail. It cannot be stated too often that our whole world is progressing at warp speed in every area of research and by any metric we use to compare, even twenty years ago. Under the curve applies better than behind it since the graphs all seem to be going vertical.

That long list of threats and concerns this nation and all the other people on this shrinking planet share can seem overwhelming, until you remove war. Food, shelter, healing, artistic and spiritual expression; power, transportation, communication, in sync with natural law; tell me this garden planet cannot provide all of that if the raging bulls are driven out. They trample, tear up and disrupt everything.

America needs to rise to it’s potential and boldly step away from conflict, towards cooperation. The vast majority of the world would bow their heads in prayer and gratitude. That’s how much influence we wield. The American people must ask themselves if the Russians, the Chinese, the Koreans, the Iranians, Indians, Africans, Mexicans, Cubans, Venezuelans, the South Americans; are these and others, all our adversaries, our enemies? Find a globe, especially one without boundaries, (rare), and contemplate it for as long as it takes to really see the totality of its interconnectedness. What are the paths forward for humanity? Really only two; trust and cooperation, or denial and decent into the unthinkable.

This interview with Eric Weinstein, one of the leading visionary figures in today’s physics offers some different ways to see the pickle we humans have gotten ourselves into.

This piece by Naomi Wolf provides a broader insight into WHY the elites resist divulging the Epstien files, but if you read Webb’s books, you will know what’s in the files.

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek has called the Legislature back into a Special Session this August 29th.
The goal is to pass a gas tax increase and wage tax increase.
When it comes to a Special Session, there will not be much of a public debate nor public hearing, just a ram rod job.
Governor Kotek’s announcement warns that this is just the FIRST STEP, “This is just the first step of many that must be taken to meet our state’s long-term transportation needs.”
That means there are more taxes, fees and budget gimmicks to come after these two taxes are passed.

That was quite a list of achievements by our current potus. (sarcasm)

One of today’s headlines: Trump floats eliminating capital gains tax on home sales.

It took me a few minutes to realize the implications (what can I say, I’m slow). This would only benefit the wealthy (of course), and it probably would supercharge the housing market at a time when many of us already cannot afford to buy or even rent. It could send inflation numbers through the roof, so I think it’s unlikely to happen. Yet we all know that “unlikely” ain’t what it used to be.

But I don’t want to focus on Trump. That’s what he wants and what fuels him. I want to see Congress change hands in 2026. Polls show Republicans are handing Democrats the opportunity and we shouldn’t pass it up. Immigration “reform” has disgusted or disappointed most voters. Gaza is far worse. Cost of living is going up faster it seems. And the Epstein scandal is not going away. There’s clearly something there they desperately want to hide.

It’s a good time to support good candidates around the country.

Personally, I believe this entire cabal of Trumpian Biden-esque billionaire tech/banker pharma/fraudsters are public enemy #1, not just Drumf.

I enjoyed listing to then Portland-based Tom Hartman back when Dubya was bombing Iraq for Israel. (Even a broken clock is right twice a day.)

But now I do not find Tom Hartman a useful source for factual info as he is all Team Blue and makes himself blind to Dem failures, and as such, in my view, he is a purveyor of misinformation. And that is a problem that I see with Dems in general: that Team Blue does no wrong -ever. It’s often cult-like and scary in my view.

Most of MAGA, however, as we see playing out in real-time, is more than willing to point out the failures of Team Red and make much noise about it. As such, my hope for America (the little to be found) lies with the anti-Israel anti-war anti-Drumf MAGA crowd that has emerged post Iran-bombing, post Gaza-genocide, post Epstein cover-up.

I believe Drumf is an anti-American tyrant; just as bad if not worse were the ‘covid’ tyrants in my view, and most were Dems, although Drumf declared himself the ‘Father of the vaccine’’.

Tom wrote:

“Trump also regularly lashed out at Democratic governors like Gretchen Whitmer and Andrew Cuomo while ignoring their pleas for ventilators and PPE. As the death toll mounted, Trump publicly minimized the virus, holding rallies and rejecting masks, while privately admitting to journalist Bob Woodward that Covid was “deadly stuff.”

First of all, mask’s do not stop covid, Tom. I think we all know that now that everyone has had ‘covid’ despite the widespread use of masks. I am actually shocked that Tom tried to use this old and tired scare tactic.

Second, Woodward is a deep state CIA-asset and a fraud, not the bad-ass independent journalist played by Robert Redford in ‘All The President’s Men’. Remember that Deep Throat was in reality the Deputy Director of the FBI.

Third, Cuomo got his ventilators AND never used them. He also got that BIG Navy medical ship to anchor in NY harbor and never used it, save a few dozen for show.

You see, the ventilators didn’t work because the virus was engineered to corrupt the oxygen receptors. No amount of ventilating will work when one’s body can’t uptake the oxygen. Nice guys Bill Gates and Fauci and company.

Like the ‘covid’ tyrants in Oregon, Whitmer DEMONIZED everyday folks who were trying to stay healthy by going OUTSIDE AND GETTING FRESH AIR. She restricted boats to 2 people, because Whitmer’s ’science’ (‘fascism’ really) said if there was more than two people on a boat they will all get ‘covid’!

(Contrast this with a woman I just met who spent the ‘pandemic’ in Oklahoma, except she said it was as if there was NO pandemic in Oklahoma as their leaders did NOT bow down to Fauci and Gates. Maybe Oklahoma is OK after all!)

Do you know where the 6-feet apart thing came from? A high school science project during the reign of Bush the First.

Here in Tillamook County the TCSO and our own Nehalem Bay Fire Dept played the role of fascist, closing our boat launches WHEN WE NEEDED TO BE OUTSIDE THE MOST!!!! I was glared at from ashore by a NBFD fireman because I was in the water in my kayak. I simply walked my kayak in from the shore, and this fireman did not like that one bit! (Stay home and inside! No fresh air for you!!! Get vaccinated!!! Obey your masters!!!)

OUR HIKING TRAILS WERE CLOSED WHEN WE NEEDED FRESH AIR THE MOST. OUR BEACHES WERE CLOSED!!!!! WHAT!?????? OUR CHILDREN WERE MASKED AT SCHOOL FOR MONTHS BCAUSE ELDERLY TEACHERS WERE SCARED!!!!

AND EVERYONE STILL GOT COVID!!!!

AND THE KIDS GOT A GOOD CASE OF DEPRESSION AND EXISTENTIAL ANGST RIGHT ALONG WITH IT

OUR STATE PARKS WERE CLOSED!!!!! (I snuck into Nehalem Bay SP every day, and encourage everyone to do the same in the future. Do not obey tyrants, wether they are Feds or the TCSO!)

Whitmer and Cuomo pushed shots on the populace THAT THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT, save what corrupt Fauci told them. They ‘trusted the science’. AND THEN EVEONE GOT COVID! Cuomo’s CNN brother was famous for shaming his audience into shooting Pfizer’s junk, saying that the ONLY way to avoid getting ‘covid’ (lab-engineered SARS) was by shooting the junk. Then he famously GOT COVID, like all of the others making money off the scam. I think it was 20-million dollars out of CNN’s Anderson Cooper’s 50-million dollar show that came from PFIZER. No ‘covid’ truth on that show.

Here is a short collection of ‘covid’ videos from folks that lied like, Whitmer and Cuomo. And they are both in this video.

rumble.com/v2xvxak-the-best-get-vaccinated-media-liars-compilation-ever..html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o

Here is some comedy from Woody Harrelson about this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3Enm23K0mM

More comedy, kind of serious though:

rumble.com/v1bonsj-jim-breuer-stand-up-comedy-covid-vax-regret-6343.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o

If Tom was to admit that the above happened, I might listen to him about other stuff. But until then…

Tom also wrote:

“Most infamously, on January 6th, 2021, he incited an insurrection designed to halt the peaceful transition of power in a stunning betrayal without precedent in American history. He encouraged extremist and white supremacist groups like the Proud Boys, Three Percenters, and Oath Keepers, effectively endorsing domestic terrorism.”

In my view, January 6th was a riot staged by Democrats and the FBI in an attempt to frame Drumf and disqualify him from running for president again. Nancy Pelosi has said as much. And the FBI has admitted that they had dozens of agents in the crowd that day. I say most were provocateurs.

(The downtown Portland BLM riots that summer were definitely domestic terrorism in my view.)

There are lots of videos of FBI provocateurs on J6. Also, Pelosi refused Drumf’s request for more capital police, and the few that were there opened the security gates for the ‘insurrectionists’, which was the Dems’ objective. Ray Epps is also a sympathetic character in Nancy Pelosi’s daughter’s documentary that she was mysteriously shooting that day:


rumble.com/vo8ekr-corrupt-pelosi-jan-6-commission-wheres-ray-epps-from-az-nancy-wheres-his-su.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o

Also, Tom, J6 was not ‘unprecedented’ in American history, as the California state capitol was stormed by BLACKS WITH GUNS!!!!! Black Panthers baby!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ11yMBnZNk

I think Tom is very wrong on these two points, and with the threat of Gates’ pandemic #2, I think the former subject matter is still in need of critical, factual understanding by many.

In closing, here is some Public Enemy, the band:

hello to all the the BBQ-land community,

below is the message i received today. i hope any doubters will take it to heart.
Thom Hartmann has written a book that is soon to be published, “The Last American President: A Broken Man, a Corrupt Party, and a World on the Brink.”

Is Donald Trump America’s Public Enemy #1? The explosive case for why Donald Trump Is the most dangerous criminal in U.S. history… THOM HARTMANN JUL 22
When historians look back on this era, they’ll inevitably ask how a nation built on principles of democracy, justice, and equality allowed one man to commit such a broad range of crimes and abuses, and whether Donald Trump is indeed the most dangerous criminal in American history.
To fully grasp the gravity of Trump’s actions, consider the extensive categories of his criminal and potentially criminal conduct, each more disturbing than the last.
First, there’s the relentless financial corruption. Trump has long played fast and loose with the law when it came to his finances. In New York, his company was convicted of tax fraud and financial manipulation designed to deceive lenders and inflate his wealth. Trump University was shuttered after a $25 million fraud settlement, its “students” left feeling defrauded.
His charitable organization, the Trump Foundation, was dissolved following revelations that funds intended for charity were instead used to benefit Trump personally and politically, and to pay off Pam Bondi in Florida where he and Epstein were living (she was Attorney General for almost a decade and never went after Epstein).
But Trump’s shady financial dealings didn’t begin or end with these public scandals. For decades, he was closely associated with New York’s organized crime families. Trump Tower itself was built using concrete provided by mob-linked companies.
Roy Cohn, Trump’s mentor and attorney as I detail in The Last American President: A Broken Man, a Corrupt Party, and a World on the Brink, was a notorious fixer and lawyer for mob figures such as Anthony “Fat Tony” Salerno and Paul Castellano.
Trump’s casinos also regularly skirted the law, drawing scrutiny from federal investigators for potential money laundering linked to organized crime, and his former casino manager recently revealed to CNN that Trump and Jeffrey Epstein once even showed up together with underage girls in tow (the White House denies the story).
Trump’s long relationship with Epstein further exposes his moral bankruptcy and possible criminality. The two were close associates and owned residences near each other in New York and Palm Beach, socializing together frequently.
Trump famously described Epstein as a “terrific guy” who enjoyed the company of beautiful women, some “on the younger side.” Multiple reports suggest Trump knew about Epstein’s exploitation of minors, yet Trump continued their association until public scandal made it inconvenient.
Then there are Trump’s questionable international relationships, with none more alarming than his mysterious affinity for Vladimir Putin. Trump’s first administration consistently favored Russian interests, dismissing election interference findings from American intelligence agencies, undermining NATO, and, in his second administration even withholding military aid from Ukraine, thus benefiting Putin’s geopolitical ambitions.
While the full nature of Trump’s entanglement with Putin remains hidden, Trump’s obsequious behavior toward the Russian dictator raises serious questions about financial leverage or compromised loyalties. For example, the only major country in the world Trump chose not to impose tariffs on this year was Russia.
Trump’s disturbing Russian connections also include his 2016 campaign manager and close confidant, Paul Manafort, whose career was dedicated to installing pro-Putin autocrats and corrupt oligarchs across Eastern Europe, including Ukraine and Albania. Heidi Seigmund Cuda writes about his recent Albania connection in her great Bette Dangerous Substack newsletter.
Manafort was convicted of multiple felonies, including tax and bank fraud, stemming from his shady dealings overseas, actions intimately connected with Putin’s broader geopolitical ambitions, for which Trump pardoned him.
Trump’s choice of Manafort to lead his 2016 campaign wasn’t coincidental; it signaled to Moscow an openness to influence, further raising troubling questions about Trump’s susceptibility to foreign manipulation and complicity in Manafort’s criminal schemes.
Trump’s election interference is equally alarming. It began with hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal to manipulate public perception during the 2016 campaign, for which he was convicted of felony election manipulation charges in Manhattan last year.
More brazenly, Trump attempted to subvert democracy in Georgia when he lost the 2020 election by demanding of Georgia’s Secretary of State, “I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have.”
His attempts to cling to power by any means necessary reached a terrifying crescendo with the conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election, ultimately joined by over 100 Republican members of Congress. This led to a federal indictment, making him the first former president charged with seeking to destroy the very democratic system that put him into power.
Trump’s abuse of presidential authority is chillingly unprecedented. Robert Mueller’s investigation laid out multiple instances where Trump criminally obstructed justice, brazenly interfering with federal investigations. He solicited foreign interference from Ukraine in the 2020 election, a move that led to his first impeachment.
Trump’s presidency was also marred by repeated violations of the Emoluments Clause as he profited directly from foreign governments funneling money through his hotels and golf clubs. He pitched Teslas from the White House in flagrant violation of the Hatch Act (penalty: 5 years in prison). Even after leaving office in 2021, Trump illegally retained classified documents and obstructed federal efforts to retrieve them, leading to further federal charges.
One of the most grotesque and morally bankrupt chapters of the Trump presidency unfolded in the early months of the Covid pandemic, when Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner reportedly made the political calculation that the virus was “only hitting Blue states” and disproportionately killing Black Americans so it could be weaponized.
According to reporting at the time, Kushner convened a secretive White House task force of mostly male, white, preppy private-sector advisors who concluded that a robust federal response to minimize deaths would be politically disadvantageous. Their analysis was clear: since it was primarily Democratic governors and Black communities suffering the early brunt of the pandemic (NY, NJ, WA), Trump could politically benefit by blaming local leadership and withholding meaningful federal aid.
It was a cynical — and deadly — strategy to let the virus burn through the opposition’s voter base that ultimately led to an estimated 500,000 unnecessary American deaths and gave us as the second-most Covid deaths per person in the world.
This approach not only explains the administration’s chaotic and insufficient response to testing, supplies, and coordination, it exposes a level of callous — morally, if not legally criminal — political calculus rarely seen in modern American history since the days of the Trail of Tears.
Leaked documents and internal communications at the time confirmed that federal resources were distributed unevenly, often favoring Republican-led states.
Trump also regularly lashed out at Democratic governors like Gretchen Whitmer and Andrew Cuomo while ignoring their pleas for ventilators and PPE. As the death toll mounted, Trump publicly minimized the virus, holding rallies and rejecting masks, while privately admitting to journalist Bob Woodward that Covid was “deadly stuff.”
This wasn’t just negligence: it was targeted neglect driven by racism and partisanship, carried out in the middle of a once-in-a-century public health emergency.
Beyond these abuses of power, Trump openly incited political violence. His rhetoric fueled vigilantism and violent confrontations at rallies.
Most infamously, on January 6th, 2021, he incited an insurrection designed to halt the peaceful transition of power in a stunning betrayal without precedent in American history. He encouraged extremist and white supremacist groups like the Proud Boys, Three Percenters, and Oath Keepers, effectively endorsing domestic terrorism.
Right up until he took office and corruptly shut them down, investigations continued into potential wire fraud and misuse of funds from Trump’s “Save America” PAC, alongside scrutiny into financial irregularities involving his Truth Social platform.
Investigations into obstruction, witness intimidation, and potential bribery — now blocked as the Supreme Court has put him above the law, or shut down by his toadies — further compound his record of potential crimes.
Yet Trump’s ultimate crime goes beyond mere lawbreaking. He has methodically eroded democratic institutions, weaponized disinformation to undermine public trust, and attacked the traditionally nonpartisan independence of the judiciary, intelligence agencies, military, and law enforcement. His assaults on the press are right out of Putin’s playbook. Trump’s relentless assault on truth and democracy normalizes authoritarianism and political violence.
Thus, his most dangerous crime is not simply corruption or obstruction, nor even incitement of insurrection: it’s the deliberate attempted destruction of American democracy itself. This crime, far more profound than any individual act, threatens the survival of the republic itself.
If America is to survive as a free nation, we must confront the reality of Trump’s actions. He isn’t merely a criminal; he’s become the most dangerous criminal in American history precisely because his actions imperil the very foundations of our democracy.
Allowing such crimes to go unpunished risks setting a precedent that future would-be autocrats may follow, forever tarnishing the promise of American democracy. Once he’s out of power, our nation’s new mantra must become, “Never forget, never forgive, never again.”

The John Lewis Protest in Nehalem was a great success, drawing at least 85 people. The participants from a remarkable range of places. Attendees came from across Oregon—including Rockaway Beach, Tillamook, Nehalem, Wheeler, Manzanita, Salem, Redmond, Portland, Klamath Falls, and Cannon Beach—as well as from out-of-state locations such as Seattle, Blaine, and Kirkland (Washington); Gary (Indiana); Palm Desert (California); Las Vegas (Nevada); and Boston (Massachusetts). The diversity of our group was truly inspiring, and we appreciated every person who joined us.

Throughout the event, conversations centered around issues and programs affecting people throughout the United States and around the world. Your presence and thoughtful discussions made a real difference, and we look forward to welcoming even more new faces at future gatherings.

We will be meeting again next Saturday, July 26th, from noon to 2 pm. The location is still being finalized, but I will send an update as soon as it is confirmed, so please stay tuned for details.

Thank you all for your support and for showing up! Together, we’re making a positive impact.

Best regards,

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden is going after Epstein? Eh, not so much…

For four years the Biden admin did nothing for Epstein’s victims!!! What changed, Ron?

(Drumf harnessed the anger of MAGA over this, and now has totally betrayed MAGA by covering it up. Drumf is either on video committing rape, or he is protecting his Israeli masters, and MAGA knows this. Hopefully he gets impeached over this, but unlike the bogus Russia-gate impeachment, dems are deeply involved with Epstein so don’t count on Drumf being impeached over the Israel-inspired cover-up.)



Where was this NY Times story when Dems were in the White House, Ron? Not a damn thing for four years!

Maybe because Democrats Bill Clinton, Former New Mexico Gov Bill Richardson and Alan Dershowitz have all been accused of raping children with Epstein?

Also involved with Epstein but not yet publicly accused, Democrats Bill Gates, Al Gore, Woody Allen, Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein and Noam Chomsky.

From OPB article below:

“One of the more notable names, former President Bill Clinton, is mentioned frequently in the documents.
They say that Clinton allegedly took a trip to Thailand with Epstein and include allegations from one witness who testified Epstein told her “Clinton likes them young, referring to girls.””


Full: www.opb.org/article/2024/01/04/court-documents-reveal-names-of-powerful-men-allegedly-linked-to-jeffrey-epstein/

Wyden’s limited hangout operation/propaganda operation is on display in the genocidal Israeli-loving Judith Miller/Iraq War-starting NEW YORK TIMES…so beware, this is propaganda from Wyden and the Times, NOT journalism!



www.nytimes.com/2025/07/17/business/epstein-banks-wyden-trump.html?unlocked_article_code=1.XE8.b91O.1E-pGLZf2wL9&smid=url-share

Here we can see Ron Wyden doing what is called a ‘limited hangout’. He will uncover crimes of Epstein’s that are politically convenient for him to uncover, but he will ignore those that hurt his friends and donors. For instance, Ron WILL NEVER drop the goods on Bill Clinton and Epstein, who are besties. (See below)

Ron highlights Leon Black in the ‘article’. My guess, Leon did NOT contribute to any of Wyden’s campaigns.

And while most of the world focuses on Epstein’s sex crimes, most of Epstein’s crimes were financial. He was part of one of the biggest bank scams on Wall Street. He also ran guns and drugs. He is Mossad/MI6/CIA – which is the same evil beast these days.

“I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone.” Alexander Acosta, the former US attorney in Miami, on why he cut Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart non-prosecution plea deal back in 2007.

When you are reading Epstein’s name, you may as well substitute “Israel, Mossad, CIA, MI6” for his name, as he is 100% ‘intelligence’ and did/does nothing without Mossad/Israeli approval.

The Gap, not just baby clothes:

The Gap, The Limited and Victoria’s secret were owned by billionaire Les Wexner, a Zionist and Mossad agent, though that is redundant. Les gave Epstein the 75-million dollar home in Manhattan where many of the blackmail rapes caught on camera occurred. Epstein also had a ranch in New Mexico accessible only by airplane, and that is where former New Mexico governor and Clinton pal Bill Richardson raped the girls, or I should say stands accused by women of raping them when they were children.

The Gap planes were also used by Epstein and Wexner to run guns and drugs, based out of Ohio, as those are key money-makers for intel black budgets and have been since well before Iran/contra.

I remember seeing Victoria’s Secret models dressed in sexy camouflage during a Super Bowl as Bush was destroying Iraq for Israel. It disgusted me so much I stopped watching the NFL for good that day. Now I know it was Epstein and Wexner (Israel/Mossad) that brought us that contextually amoral anorexic display while our troops were murdering Iraqis for no reason other than to kill for Greater Israel and make oil money doing so. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, that was our own gov’t and Israel that flew those planes and then blew up those four WTC buildings.

Here is Whitney Webb, one of the greatest researchers in American history, in a video that RON WYDEN DOES NOT WANT YOU TO WATCH!!!!

she wrote this book, that RON WYDEN DOES NOT WANT YOU TO READ:

Hey Ron, are you going to tell us about Bill Clinton traveling the world with Jeffery Epstein, on Epstein’s private jet, while setting up the slush fund/money-laundering operation known as The Clinton Foundation? PLEASE TELL US ABOUT THIS RON! Oregonians deserve to know ALL OF THE TRUTH, not just the tidbits that are politically beneficial to you!

Fun fact: Epstein’s jet was was used by the CIA in the former Yugoslavia when Bill Clinton bombed that country to hell. Jeffrey bought the plane AFTER that. And Bill stands accused of trafficking children out of Yugoslavia, a well as Haiti for that matter.

Epstein is alive, and Ron Wyden knows this as well.

Billionaires have been broken out of jail before. The cameras were not working, remember? Jeffery is a top Mossad asset, they love him! They won’t kill him or let him be killed. His brother Mark had all of Jeffery’s assets put into his name a week before they broke him out of jail. Then the brother hired Michael Baden to go on the talk show circuit with an Xray of a broken neck that he claimed was of Jeffery. He claimed the breaks were not from hanging, but done by a 2nd party, that he was murdered. The truth lies in door #3 – he is alive. I say the Xray was of an unfortunate Palestinian.

Who is Michael Baden? He is the CIA-asset that came up with the superbly ridiculous ‘magic bullet theory’ of the JFK assassination way back then, at 25 years-old. And George Floyd’s family SOMEHOW found Baden and hired him to do a 2nd autopsy on George after the first found George had overdosed on fentanyl and WAS NOT killed by white cop Chauvin. Baden then told the world that the white cop killed George, and then Minneapolis was destroyed, as well as downtown Portland, which has yet to recover. If you want to know what happened to downtown Portland, look no further than corrupt CIA-asset Michael Baden.

nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/10/why-to-be-skeptical-of-michael-baden-on-epsteins-death.html

Virginia Guiffre (Roberts back then), who was repeatedly raped by Epstein and Prince Andrew, is the woman who brought Jeffrey to court, and the one who started all of this. She was murdered a few months ago in Australia where she was living with her children and husband.

If you want to understand how the trafficking works in the world of billionaires, how depraved these people really are, Anekke Lucas is a great place to start. She was inspired by Virginia to speak out. Anekke was David Rockefeller’s sex-slave at twelve years old, and she is one of the bravest humans alive:

If you read and watch what I wrote above, you now know much more about the Epstein case than Ron Wyden will ever tell you.

This might be the most important video I have ever shared on this site.

THE VIDEO DEALS WITH OUR EXPLOSION OF ALZHEIMERS, AND THE ROLE GEOENGINEERING PLAYS:

rumble.com/v6w3eyg-rfk-jr.-running-mate-drops-bombshell-about-geoengineering-and-alzheimers-w-.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a

Nicole is Google founder Sergei’s ex, they are divorced and she now has billions to fight for humanity and the environment. She is driven by the fact that their child has autism, which she believes, after research and spending much money, that it was from vaccines, that they are a primary cause of autism in America.

She has also uncovered info on the geoengineering that I have been crowing about on this site as I’m quite shocked that few have noticed what they are doing, though it is right over our heads and clearly visible here on the north coast.

Again, if you don’t believe in geoengineering, they offer classes at the University of Washington in Seattle, the same city where Flight Tracker shows DARPA’s planes that spray over us on the north coast of Oregon and the south coast of Washington originate.

Georgia is getting ready to ban the practice:

x.com/RepMTG/status/1941511529817415692

Why do our politicians let this happen in Oregon’s skies? Not a word about it.

And we even have some folks who know all about this in Tillamook County, at the Near Johnson Space Center housed at the Tillamook Airport.

Can just one Oregon politician bring these guys in for an informational briefing? No harm in that. Maybe they can help us understand the what and why of this aerial spraying program run by DARPA being deployed in Tillamook and Clatsop counties?

These guys work out of Tillamook, at the airport:

nsc.aero/high-altitude-testing/


And here are two bills that can essentially be copied here in Oregon. Is there anyone on either side of the aisle brave enough to bing this into the public sphere?

(If no Dems are brave enough, Drazan maybe? Or is she too busy making statements supporting Israel’s genocide in the Middle East and Drumf’s bombing of Iran?)

The bills make it a FELONY to spray this crap into the air, into OUR LUNGS, into the lungs of birds, into the soil, into our farmland/rangeland.

What crap? Barium salts, bromium, aluminum, strontium, nano-tech. Pathogens can also be spayed.

If you don’t think we have the technology for this I’m not sure what to tell you. If you don’t think our government would do this to us, I’m not sure what to tell you.

The SAI pollution is far more important than firework residue left on the beach in my view. But I’ve learned that people look down quite a bit, and rarely look up.

While folks were looking down and picking up firework trash on the beach on July 5th, the geo-engineers sprayed over their heads, around Miami/Foley, it was visible from Manzanita that day. Did anyone in Manzanita see it?

I can’t post photos but if anyone is able to do so and has photos of SAI ‘clouds’ so folks can see what they look like that would be great.

PROTEST IN NEHALEM, JULY 17, 4-6 PM

Please join us on July 17th, for our John Lewis Day PROTEST. John Lewis was there on Bloody Sunday and was beaten by our government. He was arrested over 45 times for getting into what he called “GOOD TROUBLE” during the Civil Rights Era. There will be over 1,000 events across the USA this coming Thursday and we hope you will join us.

Yes, we will once again be at the base of Nehalem hill in the public parking area. We expect this to be a peaceful protest and ask all attending to be peaceful-walk away if harassed. Find someone in an orange vest and tell them about the incident. Do not take the matter into your own hands. All our other PROTESTS have been proven to be safe, and we want to continue this way.

Once again, we will be collecting food and money for our local food bank. We will have flags for sale and all that money will go to North County Food Bank in Wheeler. If you wish to send a check : NCFB, PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon, 97147. To help feed our children while they are on summer break please send your check to Nehalem Bay Community Services, PO Box 156, Nehalem, Oregon, 97147.

Thank you all for showing up this past Saturday in Nehalem. It was a hot, hot day, but people stayed as long as they could. Bring water, signs, your friends, chairs, and whatever you need to be comfortable. Layered clothing is a good idea.

As John Lewis said many years ago, “We still have work to do.”

Best,
Patty

I usually try to keep up with the daily news and this means checking in with left and right cable news and some podcasters. I heard that Elon Musk called the Big Beautiful Bill a product of the Porky Pig Party and this made me laugh – thats a good one!! Actually at the very tippy tippy top of the RNC, It IS the Porky Pig Party, and at the tippy tippy top of the DNC, we have the Looney Toones Party. The Porky Pig Party and the Looney Tunes Party. The two major parties of the USA! No wonder there are so many independent voters! No wonder we are a country in decline!! (Elon Musk wants to start another party -( The American Party?) My opinion is that a good government can be had with a basic balance between the major parties, including the independent voters in Oregon who now number about the same as the Democratic Party. I also think that if we had a government in balance with these three groups we would have a pretty good functioning legislative body in Oregon. Thats what I think! And thats what I want. I also know that there are really good people in all parties in our Oregon legislature. But they are few – they are not enough – It is getting pretty obvious that we do not have good governance in Oregon.
(2025 -“biggest tax increases in the history of Oregon”)
Judicial Watch claims we have the dirtiest voter roles in the country, they did win a lawsuit against Oregon, and MANY Oregonians agree and would like to go back to voting in person, allowing exclusions for those who find it hard to get to the poles to vote by mail.

Across the country about 70 percent of people who are registered to vote actually vote. That is the average. In Oregon 105% of people vote!!! Do you see a problem here? It doesn’t take a mystical algorithm to figure this out! (AI claims that Dr. Frank purports to have special algorythms to show voter fraud – not true)
What are Oregonians going to do? Go to the courts? NO
Obviously there is a problem. Our Democratic majority in Salem does not want a change, but there is now a real possibility for change. This will happen – not thru the court system, but a county by county change working with the sheriffs in every county. It isn’t just the Democratic Party in Oregon that doesn’t want change, but who ever is pulling the strings for the control of this entire country doesn’t want to lose control of the ability to manipulate elections.
Someone has an idea about how to solve this problem without going through the courts. In Oregon courts all judges have been put there by Democratic governors, going against the spirit of the Oregon constitution! A man named Dr. Douglas G. Frank has a better idea! He is described in the news as a math teacher, and “election denier” – how ever Dr. Frank is a world-renowned physicist, inventor and elections expert who has met with hundreds of head officials in over 40 states to discuss returning election integrity to America.

Here is his bio: Dr. Douglas G. Frank has approximately sixty peer-reviewed scientific publications, including feature and cover articles in the leading scientific journals in the world (Science, Nature, Naturwissenschaften). He was nominated for the Nobel prize. During his graduate and postdoctoral work he discovered and developed a new type of microscopy capable of producing three-dimensional images of molecules resting on metal surfaces. This gave him international credibility in the area of Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) and Auger electron spectroscopy and microscopy, and his work is prominently featured in college textbooks and handbooks on the subjects.
However in attempts to belittle him he is described in mainstream media as just a math teacher, and an election denier! Also “conspiracy theorist” and whatever else they can throw in there to convince you THERE IS NO PROBLEM, therefore, Dr. Frank is a fool!
I really want better governance in Oregon- to get this we need election integrity.

Daisy is a beautiful tan and black tabby with a luxurious white chest & belly. Her
greenish yellow eyes are rimmed in black, which complement her black-tipped nose.
Daisy was rescued by United Paws after being found exhausted, starving and heavily
pregnant. Although she was barely a kitten herself, Daisy gave birth to seven healthy kittens.
She also generously nursed another orphaned kitten when she first arrived in foster care. The
kittens are now fully raised and Daisy is ready to find a loving, forever home of her own.
Never given the chance to be a kitten herself, Daisy loves to spend time each day
playing. Wand toys and small felt balls are her favorite. She especially loves to chase balls down
a flight of stairs. Daisy knows her name and usually comes running when you call her –
especially when it is playtime. But when playtime is over, Daisy is ready to relax and hang out.
Daisy will make a wonderful companion because of her calm and quiet demeanor. She
loudly purrs when you scratch her neck or give her a brushing. She is learning to be a lap cat
and is surprisingly fine with having her front claws clipped. Her favorite game is using a
cardboard scratching post and getting a treat afterwards.
Although she had a rough start to life, Daisy is ready to bring sweetness and joy into your life.
