Senator, you’re purposely lying to Oregonians and the American people again. A quick search clearly reveals from multiple news sources that the costs are not taxpayer funded. These lies are one of the reasons I’m running to retire you. Stop lying to Oregonians and stop hating America 🇺🇸

Here is great news that crosses all party lines! Oregonians can celebrate! Thank you Senator Josh Hawley and Tim Tebow! This is a huge step forward for protecting children! It is also a huge spotlight showing Oregon needs stronger leadership. Only Cliff Bentz, CD-2, voted YES for Oregon children's safety. President Trump signed the Secure America Act into law on June 10, 2026. This includes Sen. Josh Hawley’s measure (championed with Tim Tebow) providing $108.5 million to hire 200 new DHS child exploitation investigators and analysts expanding dramatically from just 7 full-time specialists nationwide. The scale of the problem is staggering, per Tebow’s testimony: Over 338,000 U.S. IP addresses were linked to trading/distributing child sexual abuse material in a matter of months. Behind those are 89,000 unidentified child victims whose images law enforcement has seen, but lacks the resources to rescue. Oregon stands out with the highest per capita rate of registered sex offenders in the United States. Our families from Portland to the coast and rural communities cannot tolerate complacency on this. Yet my opponent, Rep. Suzanne Bonamici, voted AGAINST this critical bill (House Roll Call 214). As your next Congresswoman, I will always prioritize safety for our kids and support for victims. Livability Matters starting with the most vulnerable. Safety Matters, Livability Matters! #ProtectOurKids #SecureAmericaAct #OR1 #CD1

Clown car. The biggest cut to police and public safety in Portland history brought to you by a mayor and city council. Portlands police staffing crisis just made worse. wweek.com/news/city/2026/06/…

.@FLOTUS: For the first time, children in foster care will have access to a dedicated savings and investment vehicle — Fostering the Future Accounts — giving foster children the same chance for asset ownership and long-term wealth building as every other American child.

On a daily basis the Biden Administration turned over hundreds of alien children who had been smuggled across the border to unverified and unknown adults (almost always illegal aliens) who requested them. Thousands of times multiple minors were handed over to the same illegal alien adult. The Biden Administration never even met these adults: they gave the minors to third party contractors and the contractors drove the minors to the unknown adult “sponsors.” The “official” addresses on government forms usually faked or abandoned. Then, the Biden Administration would administratively close the case ensuring that the minor would disappear.

LOSER: Fiscally Fragile States and Municipalities The math of population decline is straightforward and unforgiving. Fewer young, working people will be supporting more retirees drawing pensions and Social Security. The dependency ratio deteriorates everywhere, but it hits harder in some places than others. States and cities that already carry heavy unfunded pension liabilities, that lean on a narrow base of working-age taxpayers, and that have been losing those taxpayers to migration are staring at a vise. The obligations are fixed and rising, while the tax base funding them is shrinking and aging. The standard responses (raising taxes, cutting services) both make the jurisdiction less attractive, which accelerates the outflow that created the problem. Today’s fiscally questionable states like California and Pennsylvania will struggle, while states already in fiscal trouble (New Jersey, Illinois, Oregon) will face severe fiscal stress. It is the municipal version of the no-floor dynamic playing out in depopulating housing markets: once the spiral starts, there is no obvious price at which it self-corrects. For real estate, fiscal fragility is not an abstraction. It shows up as deteriorating services, rising property and transfer taxes, and eventually distressed infrastructure in exactly the markets that can least afford to deter residents and capital.  – The thread running through all of this is the same one running through the fertility data: the future is already determined for a long way out, and most of the market is still underwriting the past. The winners over the next decade won't be the players who guessed where demographics are heading. They'll be the ones who noticed we're already there. thesisdriven.com/letters/the… @GovTinaKotek @MayorKWilson

“We found 146,000 kids so far. Some of these kids claimed that they were raped over 600 times. I don't care who you are. If you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you?” @SecMullinDHS
