Really hoping there's a Come to Jesus meeting in the works, cuz, Tina, sweetie, this current nonsense ain't it.
.@TinaKotek isn't quite the progressive champion that she promised she was during the 2022 campaign.

As temperatures rise this weekend, please take care of yourself, your loved ones, and your neighbors.
Visit Oregon.gov/heat for heat safety information, and call 211 for cooling centers and other local resources.
Let’s look out for one another.

Good candidates don't magically appear on ballots. Somebody has to find them, support them, & help amplify their voices
Nominate a candidate:

New footage shows ICE agents detaining a mother traveling with her young daughter at San Francisco International Airport.
Witnesses repeatedly yelled “I don’t know who you are” as agents refused to show ID.
What has America become?

Mansa Musa had gold.
Augustus had Rome.
Elon Musk has a trillion dollars, 14 kids, an estranged trans daughter, & the unshakable conviction that the problem is everyone else.

Before asking why someone uses, ask what they're trying not to feel.

Everybody knows the big names.
We're looking for the city council candidates, school board candidates, county commissioners, state legislators, and first-time challengers who deserve more attention.
Nominate 3 progressive candidates below.

There’s a weird dissonance in being told things are fine while watching access shrink in real time.
I vote based on what’s actually happening, not what’s being said.

Honestly, if a chained elephant urinates on the convention floor during a governor's speech, that's less a campaign event & more an omen.

We have entire reality shows about people who hoard newspapers, but somehow owning enough wealth to buy several nations is treated as evidence of personal excellence rather than a behavior worth examining.

Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.
If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.

If the richest 1% voluntarily gave up one dime of every dollar they own, every American could get a check in the neighborhood of sixteen thousand dollars, and the richest 1% would still collectively possess about fifty trillion dollars in wealth.

The stakes of this race couldn't be higher, and Oregonians deserve a clear choice for governor. Today, I'm calling on Christine Drazan to commit to three televised debates this fall.

We spend a lot of time talking about what people believe and not nearly enough time talking about how they learned to believe it.

one thing they never tell u about adulthood is how much of it is just looking around going “surely this system cannot be functioning correctly” and then finding out oh. no. this is apparently intentional.

a lot of folks think “don’t feed the trolls” is advice.
it’s actually harm reduction.
you don’t owe strangers access to your attention, your nervous system, or your peace.
especially not strangers treating your page like a dumping ground.

i think community is less about agreeing on everything and more about knowing who would help you move a couch, bring soup when you’re sick, or bail you out at 2am
that’s real civilization
