Hello to North County Voters,

I would like to ask you to vote yes for the North County Recreation District’s 5-year Levy coming up for renewal on November 7, 2023.

As memory serves me, I first started going to the building which houses NCRD when I was in the 5th grade. It was there I met a woman who became one of my lifetime friends. But we’re not here for my history.

What a building this was then and is now too. The building houses a variety of people and projects. I’m going to have to guess ages, maybe 4-80 years old. And what are all those people doing there? The preschool would be the youngest, then there are the after-school kids, the people who use the fitness center, and the blend of all the people who take classes. So, I’m pretty sure people using NCRD age from 4-80 plus years old. It is a wonderful building that not only goes on for all those years, but also serves so many people.

So many communities would love to have such a building and programs to serve so many people. I must tell you about my special passion for NCRD and their programs, which is the kids. I don’t want any child to go home to an empty home–which is what their after-school program serves. And it is first come, first serve. Doesn’t matter if you have the full payment or not, you can get a scholarship for this program. Sports programs are also offered to these kids. Right now, it is soccer.

Adults can take classes; I’ve watched the art classes–it’s wonderful. Working out in classes, or in the weight room or the cardio room has helped so many in our community. My mind wants to say, community, classes, and NCRD are good for all of us.

Best,
Patty Rinehart

A COMMUNITY TREASURE

When we moved to North County 25 years ago, one of our first connections to the community was North County Recreation District. We’ve watched our recreation center develop and flourish into a hub of activity, a community treasure. From the Youth Center, to exercise classes in the Fitness Center and Aquatics, to the “Learn to Swim” program, to senior activities, to productions in the Performing Arts Center, NCRD offers something for everyone who lives and visits North County.

Every five years we, as a community, get to renew our support for NCRD, by voting “YES for NCRD” on the November ballot. Amazingly, the tax rate has not increased in 15 years, since the first tax levy in 2008! We home owners will not be paying anything more; we will simply be saying “YES” to a continuation of the programs offered by and the operational costs of North County Recreation District.

Please join us in voting “YES for NCRD.”

New York Governor: Masks On! Oregon next??

Submitted By: andynorris21@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
As I’ve been saying since I got wind of their plans, thanks to the First Amendment, actual journalists, and folks who value freedom over hive-mind, the creeps at the CDC, Big Tech, Big Banks, WEF, etc. have started ‘pandemic #2’.

Here is the governor of New York: you must ‘vax’ again, the last ‘vax’ won’t work “THIS TIME AROUND” she says.

“THIS TIME AROUND”

Get ready Oregon.

If you live on the north coast of Oregon it’s time to start asking your local politicians if they are planning to close our beaches and parks again. Are they planning to close our small businesses again? Are they planning mask mandates like New York and Canada have ALREADY STARTED for Gates’ ‘pandemic number two’?

Are they planing on extorting our children again, telling our children they must ONCE AGAIN wear a useless anti-science mask all day at school or stay home and Zoom (Google)?? (Sick stuff attacking our kids mental health. Vile really. Inhuman also comes to mind.)

Anyway, hide your children and get ready to MASK UP OREGON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woke, proud, anti-science and masked! The Oregon way!

It’s all coming back, just like I told you it would.

Are you ready for anti-science pro-fascist shutdown number two, as I also suggested?

Are you stocked up? The supply lines will be getting corrupted again; carbon reduction or covid reduction?? Whatever, just renew your Netflix and Door Dash accounts! Don’t carry cash – it’s got germs!

Then get in line for the New and Improved mRNA-tech ‘Fauci Ouchie’ from your freedom-loving friends at Pfizer!

And here she is, New York’s solution to disgraced misogynist (anti-woman) and medical tyrant, former Dem Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s a**-grabbing problem:

Listen for it: “…this time around…”

Get ready Oregon! Your beloved medical fascism is coming back!

https://twitter.com/TheEliKlein/status/1701988638844715024

As for Canada? Full commie already. Thanks World Economic Forum!

The idea of freedom-loving Canada is Trudeau-ver:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF0aVyutpxI

And here is Bill Gates lying to the world AND admitting he and his corrupt billionaire tech bros who engineered the ‘vax’ and the virus violated the terms of the anti-Nazi Nuremburg Code. And he tells us to get ready for Pandemic number two.

Look how happy he is in the midst of this genocide, what a creep:

Nuremburg 2.0 (science is real)

Submitted By: andynorris21@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Despite all those ‘science is real’ yard signs all over Oregon, the science of epidemiology is still being intentionally ignored by Oregonians for political purposes. Or maybe those signs are for virtue-signaling only?

Whatever the case, Oregonians are dying in higher numbers than Swedes because Oregonians are not following the science. Super ironic. Kind of funny.

And here is yet another study showing that lockdowns and masks don’t work.

Ye, yet another study for Oregonian’s deaf, anti-science ears:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wjZI2fE9Gk

The low-level everyday authoritarian tyrants in schools, county admin buildings, and Wal-Mart$ are once again more than willing to do the bidding of the trillion-dollar medical fascists.

The CDC is essentially a drug company. They own patents. They are corrupt as it gets.

Big Tech and Big Pharma and Oregon’s Governor, Kotek this time around, are once again gearing up to shut-down our small businesses, close our schools, close our state parks, close our beaches, close our boat launches and close the parking lots of our favorite hiking trails.

And they are once again coming for our children.

Will you stand up for yourself this time?

Our local leaders are sheep pretending to be wolves. They WILL NOT help you. Tillamook County politicians will not help our children; democrat or republican. They’ve already laid down like a bunch of beat-down pansies and let Fauci and Biden and Trump and Gates abuse our children.

Yamamoto and company, the elderly heads of teachers unions, the school board cowards, should all be in jail for child abuse, from their cowardice and witnessing the crimes against our children, the abuse, and doing nothing about it last time around. They are absolute cowards in the face of this medical tyranny.

The worst Nazis were the doctors. Make no mistake about that fact.

It’s time for Nuremberg 2.0.

NOW

Before they screw our kids over even more.

Bye, Bye, Brad!

At the end of the last council meeting, Councilor Mayerle announced that he and his wife bought a new home in another town, and he was resigning as of last Friday because he would no longer be a resident of Manzanita.

He alluded to the private and seemingly secret sale of the mayor’s home on Treasure Cove a few weeks ago. Some people hearing his remarks were confused because the mayor has yet to make a public statement about the sale of her home and the removal of her full-time residence from Manzanita to Wilsonville. It’s unclear what her plans are, where she’s living now or how much time she’s now spending in Manzanita, and I won’t speculate.

Issues of transparency aside, many people in town are sensitive about residency issues since the 2020 election when some people in town were accused of voter fraud by other people in town. Yikes. In fact, the mayor’s husband contacted the State’s election division about residency requirements for voters in 2022.

At the end of the last meeting Mayerle read this passage from the Charter:

Section 32. What Creates Vacancy. An office shall be deemed vacant upon the incumbent’s death, incompetence, conviction of a felony, resignation, removal of residency from the City, ceasing to possess the qualifications for office or absent from the City for thirty days without the consent of the Council…

The wording is interesting. It’s the action by a councilor or mayor that creates the vacancy. The action might be intentional, like moving or resigning or unintentional, like death or incompetence or some kind of hybrid, like being convicted of a felony, but regardless of how it happens, the office is vacant when an action by a councilor or mayor precipitates it.

When you’re a public official some things are no longer just your private business because they determine your ability to govern. Where you live and for how long are a couple of those things.

“A treasure stumbled upon, suddenly; not gradually accumulated, by adding one to one. The accumulation of learning, ‘adding to the sum-total of human knowledge’; lay that burden down, that baggage, that impediment. Take nothing for your journey; travel light.” – Norman O. Brown, Love’s Body

These are “heavy” times, colloquially speaking.

Forebodings everywhere.

Everything broken.

People on edge, nervous, filled with anxiety about they know not what since it seems to be everything.

The economy, politics, elections, endless propaganda, the war in Ukraine, censorship, the environment, nuclear war, Covid/vaccines, a massive world-wide collapse, the death of democratic possibilities, the loss of all innocence as a very weird and dangerous future creeps upon us, etc.

Only the most anesthetized don’t feel it.

The anxiety has increased even as access to staggering amounts of knowledge – and falsehoods – has become available with the click of a button into the digital encyclopedia.

The CIA’s MK-Ultra mind control program has gone digital.

The more information, the more insubstantial the world seems, but it is not an insubstantiality that connects to hope or faith but to despair.

Across the world people are holding their breath. What’s next?

Club Manzanita, A Case Study

Submitted By: rkinor@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
How Public Records requests get processed in Manzanita.

Case A. Request by Deb Tinnin for 5 years of emails between myself and our current Mayor and Council, past Councils and the City Attorney. She emphasized that she would like this request filled “as soon as possible”.
City Response: The City Manager sends the Council a notice that “Your immediate attention is needed!” and you have a little more than 48 hours to comply with Ms. Tinnin’s request.
City Attorney Review: 478 pages submitted to Ms. Tinnin with NO City Attorney charges for review.

Results: In the City’s haste to comply with this request, non public information of a citizen is released and disclosed on the internet for all to see. No acknowledgment of this error or public apology is given.

Case B. Request by myself for the City Manager’s current monthly salary and benefit costs.
City Response: I’m initially told that the City does not have that information and am reminded that the City has 15 business days to respond to a public records request. After I suggest to staff where this information can be found, the City acknowledges that it does indeed have the information.
City Attorney Review: My one page document containing this public information will require City Attorney review and I will be charged $329.37 before I can receive it.

I made this exact same Public Records request to Cannon Beach and received all of the information requested within 48 hours. No excuses that they did not have the information, no reminder that there is no urgency on their part to fill a public records request, no City attorney review, no City Attorney charges, in fact no fees of any kind.

This is an example of how Club Manzanita operates. Members in good standing get VIP treatment, non members in essence get told to take a number, get your checkbook out and we’ll get back to you.

The right to equal treatment and to not be singled out due to asking questions or making public observations as to how its local government conducts itself is a foundational right of every citizen. Councilor Kozlowski claims that asking such questions amounts to “harassment and intimidation”. Unnecessary obstacles to the release of public records becomes acceptable and the City Manager advises the Council that individuals who exercise their rights should be “discouraged and even ignored if necessary”.

The advantages of Club membership are obvious. Members first get Committee appointments and when the occasion arises, selection to fill vacant Council seats. Looks like the Council will soon be appointing another citizen to fill a vacant Council seat. If this trend continues, Manzanita may soon have a Council the majority of which were not elected to office and all seem to be Members in good standing. Something to think about.

Never Forget WTC builing 7

Submitted By: andynorris21@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
One of the Nehalem area’s greatest assets are the Nehalem Bay Fire and Rescue First Responders. I’ve had occasion to call them twice for individuals in medical distress, and these responders are top of the line; it doesn’t get any better.

We are very lucky to have them. I do have an issue with the new fire truck though.

Three World Trade Center buildings were blown-up and collapsed into their own footprint on September 11th, 2001. But only two WTC buildings, numbers One and Two, the tallest two, are depicted on the sides of Nehalem’s new fire truck.

WTC Building 7 was 47-stories tall, about half the size of the 110-story WTC buildings 1 and 2. It would fit quite nicely on the door I think, next to the other two buildings that were blown by criminal elements in the Israeli, Saudi Arabian, and American governments.

This ‘false flag’ (Osama did it!) was done to justify the destruction (make money killing them and stealing their oil) of Iraq, Somalia, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria, and Iran. Only Syria and Iran have avoided being attacked by the United States (so far) after the false flag attack in NYC that day, which saw the Bush Crime Family blaming Osama Bin Laden for their 9/11 operation.

Brilliant nomenclature: 911. No other three numbers strike such a chord in Americans hearts.

Anyway, the side of the new fire truck is missing a building, yes.

In the second link below, one can hear NYC First Responders discussing the demolition of building 7, and you can hear the explosions yourself.

And you can hear the owner, Larry Silverstein, claim that they decided to blow up Building 7 that day (pull it) in order to save firefighters’ lives. (They killed how many firefighters in buildings One and Two? As if he cares about a few more. Larry Silverstein had just bought the WTC complex btw, and he is a Zionist Jew and was very much interested in destroying Muslim countries and stealing their oil.)

Obviously, it takes more than a few hours (about two weeks actually) to rig a building of that size for demolition. Larry here suggests they rigged it in one afternoon! The truth is Mossad agents rigged the buildings with explosives, they were given that job. Ain’t telling you how I know that.

But I will tell you that nobody involved in 9/11 (about 200 individuals or so) cares that I am writing this. They blew up a 47-story building on live tv at 530 PM on a Monday in lower Manhattan and nobody even remembers it happened! (Mission accomplished)

I went in WTC Building One as a kid, but only to the unimpressive 14th floor.

I did witness Building 7 blow up on live tv, which is why I probably keep harping on it. I saw it blow up LIVE. You didn’t, because you turned off the television before 5:30 PM that Monday, like so many other Americans. But I kept watching. It’s kind of f*cked witnessing such a crime and then watching a nation totally unaware that it even occurred. I bet it makes Dubya laugh tho.

(My theory is the THIRD PLANE was supposed to hit the THIRD BUILDING, but it was forced down by passengers over Pennsylvania. So they had to blow up Bldg 7 without the plane-hit cover. Just my theory, ain’t heard nobody else posit such.

I’m guessing our friends in ‘intelligence’ have totally scrubbed the video of Dan Rather and Bldg 7 that day, but I watched Dan on CBS look really confused, wondering why his producer had cut to a shot of WTC building 7 which only had a small fire on a 30th floor. Then me and Dan Rather watched the f*ucking building blow up on live tv. (You can see video of the controlled demolition in link #2).

If you recall, Dan Rather came out against attacking Iraq (a country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11 – younger generations don’t know that), and he was promptly fired by Westinghouse-owned (weapons systems) CBS News.

It’s important to remember history, to remember building 7, to put a picture of it on Nehalem’s fire trucks. Building 7 isn’t on any fire trucks that I’ve ever seen. Why is that? It wasn’t big enough?

Can we put a rendition of WTC Building 7 on Nehalem’s new fire truck? That would be a grand gesture to the NYC First Responders who witnessed that part of the attack on the American people.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ytx6kQYV44Y

and

banned.video/watch?id=64fb820e4b78a8fc97a91821

It’s important to remember WTC 7 because when we forget things like WTC Building 7, we get Covid1984, and more and more lies that can lead to things like WW3 with Russia.

It’s too late to stop Covid1984 and war with Russia tho.

But maybe we can stop them from closing our schools again and masking our children during Gates’ upcoming ‘pandemic number 2’.

School closures and masks are great for fascists, but bad for children:

The US is Becoming a Third World Country?

USA: Most Citizens in 3rd World Conditions
By:Yossarian Johnson, The Intellectualist 30 January 2019

A study by an MIT economist shows that the United States of America has regressed materially to a third-world nation for most of its citizens.

America divided: This concept increasingly graces political discourse in the U.S., pitting left against right, conservative thought against the liberal agenda. But for decades, [U.S.] Americans have been rearranging along another divide, one just as stark if not far more significant—a chasm once bridged by a flourishing middle class.

Peter Temin, Professor Emeritus of Economics at MIT, believes the ongoing death of “middle America” has sparked the emergence of two countries within one, the hallmark of developing nations.

In his new book, The Vanishing Middle Class: Prejudice and Power in a Dual Economy, Temin paints a bleak picture where one country has a bounty of resources and power, and the other toils day after day with minimal access to the long-coveted “American dream.”

In his view, the United States is shifting toward an economic and political makeup more similar to developing nations than the wealthy, economically stable nation it has long been.

Temin applied W. Arthur Lewis’s economic model, designed to understand the workings of developing countries, to the United States in an effort to document how inequality has grown in [U.S.] America.

The parallels are unsettling. As noted by the Institute for New Economic Thinking: In the Lewis model of a dual economy, much of the low-wage sector has little influence over public policy. The high-income sector will keep wages down in the other sector to provide cheap labor for its businesses. Social control is used to keep the low-wage sector from challenging the policies favored by the high-income sector.

The primary goal of the richest members of the high-income sector is to lower taxes. Social and economic mobility is low.

Temin describes multiple contributing factors in the nation’s arrival at this place, from exchanging the War on Poverty for the War on Drugs to money in politics and systemic racism. He outlines the ways in which racial prejudice continues to lurk below the surface, allowing politicians to appeal to the age old “desire to preserve the inferior status of Blacks,” encouraging white low-wage workers to accept their lesser place in society.

“We have a structure that predetermines winners and losers. We are not getting the benefits of all the people who could contribute to the growth of the economy, to advances in medicine or science which could improve the quality of life for everyone, including some of the rich people,” he laments.

The antidote, as prescribed by Temin, is likely a tough sell in today’s political climate.

Expanding education, updating infrastructure, forgiving mortgage and student loan debt, and overall working to boost social mobility for all [U.S.] Americans are bound to be seen as too liberal by many policy makers.

Sweden: A success story

Submitted By: andynorris21@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
This post is especially for Governor Kotek and her staff, the Director of the Oregon Health Authority Dave Baden and his staff, the Tillamook County Commissioners (specifically Mary Faith Bell) and the Neahkahnie School Board (specifically Melissa Bayouth).

The people of Oregon suffered enough last time authoritarian narcissist politicians tried to lock us in our houses and shut our schools and businesses.

More Oregonians died from covid due to Governor Brown’s lockdown than if we were not locked down.

A better solution was simple: tell folks to go outside and be healthy.

She and the Oregon Health Authority killed people by telling them to stay inside. More children got hooked on drugs; more children committed suicide from the fascistic anti-science science lockdowns from the OHA and Governor Brown than if they hadn’t locked them in their houses. That is a crime.

Instead of making children’s lives hell, the governor should have simply told them to go outside and play.

Take heed those listed above!

WE WILL NOT LAY DOWN LIKE A BUNCH OF BEAT-DOWN PANSIES AND LET YOU KILL US AND OUR CHILDREN AGAIN WITH YOUR ANTI-LIFE LOCKDOWNS

THAT SH*T IS OVER

And now you know about Sweden. I will assume this is news to most of Oregon’s narcissist politicians: THE SCIENCE IS IN, LOCKDOWNS DON’T WORK.

AND NOW THE PEOPLE OF OREGON KNOW THAT YOU KNOW THE TRUTH.

DON’T TRY TO LOCK US IN OUR HOUSES AGAIN

DO NOT CLOSE OUR SCHOOLS OR MASK OUR CHILDREN AGAIN
