Last night, this PAC reported a $90k contribution from United for Portland Action Fund. Their first transaction was reported 9/25, while the PAC itself filed for formation on 9/28 (all info on ORESTAR) More trouble for Jon Isaacs and his wealthy handlers!

I’m not afraid of saying “tax the rich,” and we don’t need to be shy about asking large, multinational corporations to give back to the city where they do business – ESPECIALLY when working people and small business owners are struggling just to get by.

What's funny (not really funny) is that both Islamaphobia and antisemitism are worse than my old ass can ever remember them being and that's because there are White Supremacists running the government and White Supremacists running the media.

Kellie Torres is the only person on stage who explicitly said she would have supported using PCEF funds for police funding had it made the ballot. Note: this directly contradicts Torres' claim that she supports 350PDX's Climate Justice Platform.

Two observations about Oregon politics on the whole: 1. Legacy political entities and longtime observers here are so accustomed to minimal pushback and public participation that even slight opposition is labeled abrasive. 2. It will attack tone when it can’t impeach the substance.

Last thing I’ll say on this is that if you’re a seedling getting into politics and you have any backbone to fight for marginalized people, you will subsequently face operators who will beat that instinct out of you. You must stay true to your center. You know in your gut & heart what you must do.

Annie Ellison tried to stop me from getting into Emerge Oregon, a program that teaches women to run for office. When I got in anyway she told me to stop talking about police accountability and the rights of the unhoused because “those aren’t popular issues anymore.”

day, goPDX sent $6,000 to "The Rally Point" —a consulting firm run by former Emerge Oregon director Annie Ellison. The goPDX PAC then sent $25,000 each to DitchMitch and fix multCo.

The results speak for themselves. Allow them to continue to be in power and continue this unmitigated distasteful. Rational people must reject them.

D3 Peacock incumbents fight Clean & Safe and push Fair Share tax hikes. Working people need jobs and safe streets, not caucus theater. Kellie Torres is the common-sense pick.
