I found out that the sides of the lights were painted over so the lighting only pointed straight down.
I appreciate the results and the VERY quick responses from both of these individuals.
Manzanita!

Not a fan of ICE? Trust me, look at DARPA (what you can find, much of what they do is in secret) and you will hate that agency even more. And they target everyone, not just folks living here unlawfully.
Perhaps Oregon Democrats can get off their partisan horses for just one moment and support this critical environmental legislation being proposed by a Congressional Republican? So far, not one democrat in Oregon government will even speak of the geo-engineering being done by the Drumf Admin, and Biden before that.
What could the motivation behind this bill be other than a clean environment, as God intended?
To the many generous people who took home treasures and paid just a wee bit extra, and to those who dropped a little something in the donation jar even if you didn’t find treasure – many thanks!
We also owe thanks to Bob, who organized the hardest part for us (the very messy garage), and to Erika, Jan, Jenny, Rob and Wendy who answered the call for tables to borrow. You embody the spirit of a sharing community.
And last, we sit in gratitude to the BBQ for supporting the North Coast’s communication needs for so many years!!
We couldn’t do without (any of) you.

After Governor Kotek was absent on the gas tax debate for 6-months during the 2025 Legislative Session (she only got involved in the final few days), she then made up for her mistake by punishing lawmakers by calling a Special Emergency Legislative Session for Labor Day weekend — often the fourht most traveled holiday. Lawmakers, lawmaker staff, Capitol staff and citizens who cared about this issued had to cancel their plans to make room for Kotek.
Yet, Kotek did not even show up to her own hearing on her gas tax plan on Sunday.
Not only did she not show up, but the Democrat controlled House and Senate could not even muster the votes to begin the Legislature on time over the past few days. People showed up for hearings that were never held. As we previously explained this was unfair not only to us but also to the those who supported the gas tax:
This angered the unions for whom hundreds of government union jobs are at stake and for which they are the top supporters of the big tax increase, The Oregonian reports, ” Jason Lawrence, an employee and union leader at the Oregon Department of Transportation. “And I don’t think it’s too damn much to ask these people who run for office to represent us and call themselves public servants to just show up.”. The Statesman Journal reported further union anger, “People took the day off to come and testify and tell their story,” said SEIU executive director Melissa Unger. Unger said one worker from Ontario drove to Salem to testify.”
Last week, the Taxpayers Association calculated that of the 2,000+ submitted testimonies on the gas tax in the State Capitol, 93% were opposed to the new tax.

We had three types of attendees at the PROTEST this past Saturday. First, there were people who have been joining us for weeks or months, showing ongoing commitment. Second, new local residents came for the first time and shared their enthusiasm to return for future events. Third, we welcomed holiday visitors and second homeowners who discovered our PROTEST and decided to join us. Together, we make up the North County Resistance, and our numbers have steadily grown throughout the summer.
Your voice is important, and every participant makes a difference. If you’re interested in joining us or learning more about our cause, please reach out—we welcome everyone who shares our concerns about the direction our government is heading. While we may not always agree on every issue, we are united by our shared worries and our desire for positive change.
Organizing an event on Highway 101 is always a challenge, and we learn new things each time. Safety is a top priority, and for our next PROTEST in Manzanita, we will introduce new rules and guidelines to help keep everyone safe.
For those planning to attend our next event, we will be back in Nehalem this coming week: September 6th, noon to 2 PM, in the city parking lot at the bottom of the hill. Please use the city lot for parking, bring signs or banners to help share our message, and dress appropriately for the weather. If you would like to receive updates about future protests, changes due to weather, or other important details, simply reply to this email.
Some have asked what we’ll do if the weather turns bad. Our concerns about government actions don’t disappear just because it’s raining—so I plan to be there regardless of the forecast, unless there’s a flood in the parking lot!
Thank you to everyone who joins us in person and to those who send notes of support. If you wish to be removed from this mailing list, let me know and I will do my best. There’s still one address I’m trying to delete, but I won’t give up.
Happy Labor Day.
Best,
Patty
I do this only to reduce suffering in the world.
It’s hard to look at nasty stuff, as the Good Germans showed us. They were so horrified with the stories of Auschwitz and the like that they refused to believe such horrible things were happening. And because not enough Germans were willing or brave enough or smart enough to shine a light on the atrocities, the horrible things the Nazis were doing continued.
I had been told the Rothschild’s (‘Red Shields’ from the 1600’s) propped up Hitler and the Nazis. I was also told the Rothschilds are Jewish. Why then would the Rothschilds support the Nazis?
I was also told that the AshkanNAZI jews have no problem exterminating non-AshkaNAZI jews, along with everyone else.
So I asked the A.I. in my browser, just now, if the Rothschilds were AshkaNAZI jews. (In the process, I learned that is where the word Nazi came from):
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rothschild_family
Are the AshkaNAZI jews behind Netanyahu and the genocide in Gaza? Are they behind Epstein and the blackmail of so many American politicians? Are they behind Greater Israel Project and all of the associated wars? Not all Jews in Israel support the genocide currently being supported by anti-MAGA Drumf, and anti-MAGA Biden before him. Is the line in Israel drawn by the Ashkanazis?
Intelligence assets? Amazon has a 500-million dollar data storage deal with the CIA, Microsoft powers much of the military software Israel uses to bomb children in Gaza and Drumf is using to bomb Africa and Russia/Ukraine, etc etc etc, there is more.
What??? You didn’t know Drumf was bombing Africa? Well here then:

Back to: the nanotech from this company comes in the form of shots. Nanotech can also be put into – or snuck into – our bodies by these genocidal freaks via food, dental floss, vaccines, aerial spraying and more.
DNA-specific bioweapons also exist, and if you got that deep-nasal test for ‘covid’ or if you used 23 and Me, Gates and Fauci and Elon and Drumf and the CIA now have your DNA.
“In 2022, the CDC tweeted that for individuals who took a COVID-19 nasal swab PCR test, there was a 10% chance the swab ended up in a lab for genomic sequencing analysis.” That is a lie, Fauci’s CDC kept ALL of the nasal swabs with our DNA, per a second tweet.
‘Covid’, the trillion-dollar scam/bio-attack from the DOD and Gates and Pfizer was a beta-test for this sort of medical mind-control – medical tyranny it’s called – and boy did it work!
Round two – what Bill Gates and Warren Buffet call ’pandemic number two’ – looks to be super nasty, and likely will feature lots of nanotech and AI as the ‘solution’, and the engineered pathogens they release on us will likely have a much higher death rate.
Watch the promo video herein and you will see a disabled guy working a computer with his mind. Then imagine what Hitler or Mao or Bill Gates or Elon or Bezos or Drumf or Newsom might do with this technology, if they can get the tech into our bodies without us knowing.
Again, nanotech can also be put into – or snuck into – our bodies by these genocidal freaks via food, dental floss, vaccines, aerial spraying and more.
This is a promo video out of SiliCON valley for investors and prospective employees, not some whacked conspiracy video:
Gates ran the ‘exercise’ below at Johns Hopkins, with the DOD/CIA/Pharma, etc.
They used the ‘exercise’ to get their upcoming trillion-dollar tyranny in order. This was done in October of 2019!!!!!!!!!
“The Event 201 scenario
Event 201 simulates an outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus transmitted from bats to pigs to people that eventually becomes efficiently transmissible from person to person, leading to a severe pandemic. The pathogen and the disease it causes are modeled largely on SARS, but it is more transmissible in the community setting by people with mild symptoms.”
Sounds almost prophetic! But there was no prophecy, just a bunch of evil and well-organized psychopaths.

Stay healthy! Be smart! Don’t let these genocidal freaks victimize you and yours any further!
BONUS!
From left-leaning VICE of all places! This is the origin of Epstein’s blackmail of our useless/soulless politicians, bankers, scientists. And after reading this you will also understand why the IDF murderers and others are very much okay with their country committing genocide of non-Jews, blackmailing non-Jews, and intentionally targeting children in Gaza.
Drumf’s pal Netanyahu is one of these ultra-orthodox Jews, fyi:

I’ll say it again, the post-WW2 aperient known as the state of Israel is a genocidal failure, and we need to vote all pols who support the pariah state out of office.
HB3991 2025 1st Special Session – Oregon Legislative Information System
If City officials want to highlight their fiscal wisdom in how they delivered this project by framing it in terms of its “construction costs” we should remind them that the failed 2019 City Hall Bond measure would have resulted in a facility with “construction costs” under $550 per square foot. What exactly should we be thankful for with this announcement?
For a public facility, the project cost encompasses all expenses associated with planning, designing, constructing, and equipping the facility, as well as any associated costs like land acquisition, demolition costs, financing, and staff administrative overhead. It’s the total sum needed to bring the project to completion and make it operational. The City Hall project cost did not start with the groundbreaking ceremony in April 2024 but rather began with the purchase of the Underhill property and ended with a ribbon cutting.
Citizens are not interested in the bureaucratic parsing of select project cost categories that provide an incomplete picture of what we just purchased. We want to know what the total project cost is including the as of yet unknown debt costs for a project that was built and financed without a vote and substantially paid for with borrowed money.
Pay attention to how City officials present and approve the project close out report, particularly the debt servicing agreement with the State to pay for the loan for this project out of the General Fund. Our General Fund already has an unhealthy reliance on short term rental revenue and this Council yet again through this decision has ensured that we have mortgaged our community livability by further increasing the number of short term rentals for the next 20 years to pay off this new debt obligation.
Successful fleecing requires clever messaging to distort or present select information in order to avoid disclosing those facts that our City officials would prefer not to make known. The City plans to provide an accounting of the City Hall project cost at their September Council meeting. We deserve a full and accurate accounting of the actual cost, not partial project cost soundbites.

This peaceful protest aims to address recent legislative proposals that threaten voting rights, birthright citizenship, and government transparency, including the proposed Voter ID bill and recent changes to absentee ballot procedures, as well as efforts to limit access to public records. By gathering, we hope to raise awareness and demand action on these critical issues that directly affect our community’s future. As laws and policies put long-standing protections at risk, our unity and resolve in Manzanita stand as a powerful statement for justice and equality.
For your safety, please always remain on the west side of Highway 101 behind the barricade. If you need to cross, use the designated crosswalk near Manzanita Lumber Yard and Big Wave. Volunteers will be there to help you cross safely. Follow directions from our volunteers in orange vests—they are available to help with any questions or concerns. Do not cross the street outside the crosswalk and avoid entering the highway for any reason. If anyone tries to engage negatively, simply walk away and seek help from a volunteer. Our priority is a peaceful, respectful demonstration for all.
Please remember not to park in local business lots around the protest area; these are reserved for customers. Parking is available along Laneda or Manzanita Avenues (without blocking driveways) and at the new City Hall on Manzanita Avenue.
Prepare for changing weather by dressing in layers and bringing water, a chair if needed, and your protest signs (or borrow one of ours). Most importantly, bring your positive spirit and commitment to our shared values.
Just as we stand together for justice and equality in our protest, we also unite to support neighbors in need through our ongoing partnership with the North County Food Bank. We continue to support the North County Food Bank in Wheeler with your generous donations. Each Tuesday, the food and funds collected are delivered, making a meaningful difference for neighbors in need. Last week was a record breaker for food collected, and we are deeply grateful for your kindness and support of this community treasure. In future updates, we look forward to sharing stories from food bank recipients and volunteers, connecting us all more closely with the impact of our efforts. To stay up to date with their story, please visit their website: www.northtillamookcountyfoodbank.org
Thanks, Patty



Please do not park in the business parking lots in the surrounding areas, as you may be asked to move. If you need a ride, please contact us—we’re happy to help you get to the protest. The weather may be cool, so please dress in layers for comfort. Bring your water, chairs, and signs, or anything else you need to feel comfortable.
Since we will be along Highway 101, everyone’s safety is our priority. We will have a barrier up and ask that you do not cross it onto Highway 101. If you need to cross the street by the lumberyard, someone will be at the crosswalk to help you do so safely. If you encounter any problems, please look for someone wearing an orange vest—they are there to assist you. This is a peaceful rally, and we do not engage with those who try to disrupt our event. Respectful conduct is essential to ensure the safety and unity of our group.
We are also continuing to collect donations for the North County Food Bank. There have been questions about the food bank closing, so please visit their website for current information. The food bank is not closing permanently, and our continued support is important. You can reach them at: Northtillamookcountyfoodbank.org
Your participation in these protests shows others in our community that we value democracy and want to see positive changes in how our country is governed. Thank you for standing with us.
Patty

No wonder he does NOTHING to stop the genocide in Gaza! Wyden supports Israel over America, and genocide over peace, love and humanity. He is the ranking member of the Senate Intelligence Committee for god’s sake. He probably knew Oct. 7th was going to happen a month before it did.
(4,000 exploding pagers into the hands of Hezbollah in Lebanon? Don’t tell me the Mossad doesn’t control Hamas as well!)
Genocide-supporting Wyden needs to get the hell out of America and Oregon.
Bonamici: took $70,000 from Israel first orgs. Not 1.2 million, but why take money from a genocidal state? She is compromised by Israel. Someone ask her to pledge not to take any more Israel money??? If she says no, let’s get rid of her on those grounds.
Jeff Merkely: he protected Israel and the CIA when he lied to a child’s face, whom I know, about how many buildings fell on 9/11 (there were three, he told a child at a meet and greet that two buildings fell, and he was immediately corrected by the 11-year old “I have a fun fact for you. Three buildings fell on 9/11” haha! Nice job kiddo! Then Merkely cringed and turned his back on her. He certainly didn’t try to correct her!)
So Jeff will sell his soul for Israel and war, but so far he has taken ZERO DOLLARS from Israel-first orgs! Nice move Jeff, even if it’s just a calculated political move!
www.trackaipac.com/states/oregon?rq=jeff%20merkley
Here are the top 20 treasonous Democrats supporting Israeli genocide over American’s well-being. Wyden is one of them:

In New York, it’s getting to the point that if you take money from Israel, your career is over:
“AIPAC Operative Elise Stefanik Driven From The Stage By Continuous Chants Of Traitor”
(she is a NY GOP Israel-firster, fyi)
Let’s heckle the hell out of genocide-supporting Wyden at his town halls. Then let’s VOTE Wyden and Bonamici OUT OF OFFICE for supporting a genocidal country over the American people!

Israeli Mossad agent Jeffry Epstein’s girlfriend Ghilslane Maxwell, the anti-American pedophile whom Drumf will pardon, is the daughter of now dead Robert Maxwell, a British national, and Israel’s number one Mossad agent when he was alive. He was buried with state honors in Israel, because like many prominent jews, his allegiance was to Israel, not Britain, the country in which he resided.
And look here, turns out Israel and the Mossad were creating public school textbooks to control the perception of Israel in the minds of American youth! And you thought you were taught the REAL history of Israel!
Read ‘The Mossad was involved….’ in place of ‘Robert Maxwell’.
“Robert Maxwell was involved in the publication of school textbooks through a joint venture. In 1989, he formed a partnership with McGraw-Hill, creating Macmillan/McGraw-Hill School Publishing Co., which became the second-largest textbook publisher in the United States at the time. This venture combined Maxwell’s Macmillan Inc. with McGraw-Hill’s educational publishing holdings, producing materials for elementary, secondary, and vocational education. However, Maxwell died in 1991….”
It doesn’t say how he died, but he ‘fell on his yacht’ don’t ya know! Doh! Always good to watch yer step when ur in the genocide biz!
The post-WW2 experiment known as the state of Israel needs to end; it’s a genocidal failure, and even our pols in Oregon are getting sucked into the evil.
This is a GREAT FILM about how Dubya’s mercenaries, the American media, his entire admin, totally failed in their attempt to overthrow Chavez. (Though they apparently killed him with cancer, a la Jack Ruby, just a few years later.)
The film about it is called THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED, and here is a link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH5nzZU0qCc
(An fyi, before he died, Chavez claimed at the United Nations that the US Navy had used an energy weapon to cause that first massive earthquake in Haiti. Iran, too, claims the US and Israel are using energy weapons for weather modification, effectively redirecting moisture and causing severe drought in Tehran.)

And

Drumf, too, during his first treasonous administration, spent 700-million dollars of USAID money trying to overthrow Venezuela – do not expect DOGE to look into this, as billionaire Elon is an anti-American traitor who gets 3-billion a year (maybe more??) of taxpayers’ hard-earned money for SpaceX, a company whose primary work is putting satellites into space so the Deep State/Blackrock/Palantir can make more war and also control us further via the digital world. Do not expect treasonous Elon to DOGE the billions he gets from our taxes for SpaceX. Elon is just a public-face/psy-op for the CIA/globalist/banker/pedophile class who seek to control the digital world and all who submit to it, which, sadly, is just about everyone these days (seriously, I don’t know why I bother sometimes). These billionaires steal and steal and steal from us, and then they pretend to be patriots as they ‘investigate’ the ‘theft’! And I gotta say, team red is just eating up this DOGE fakery.
Yes, Drumf failed in his first attempt to overthrow Venezuela. (Maybe because he has small hands, I don’t know.)
How many in MAGA even know that he did this five years ago?
And guess who was a key planner of the coup? John Bolton! Mr. Just Got Snagged by Drumf’s FBI is in the video…. What a bunch of murderous clowns…
Here is traitor Drumf’s failed attempt #1:

Hannah Arendt’s work on authoritarianism, written post World War Two, has influenced generations of philosophers, scholars, political theorists and ordinary readers ever since. That said, her work can be a bit dense and long. West does an admirable job putting her work in context and communicating why it’s crucial to understanding and acting in the current rise of fascism and authoritarianism in the United State and elsewhere.
Certainly worth a half-hour of your time.
