Well it makes sense now that we know both Brian Owendoff and Laurie Wimmer were brain washing my colleagues into thinking βthe race cardβ move was a tactic.
Weβre all the same style of progressive though, no real difference among people politically lol

Cracking up and maybe more than a little depressed by colleagues asking where we are taking sine die vacation after such an intense short session.

We believe weβre a progressive city but electeds of color get accused of βrace baitingβ when we talk about our experiences. How is that different than Republicans?
Very disillusioned by this. I expect better.

Realizing how many white ppl within city hall/Portland assumed that BIPOC councilors sharing racial dynamics during the president vote was a Machiavellian strategy rather than earnest feedback is eye opening.
They assume strategy over earnestness because they do not approach others with sincerity.

New Preschool for All Data Challenges Idea That Wealthy People Are Fleeing County
In the years since 2021, when Multnomah County began collecting its Preschool for All tax, much has been made about the effect the program may be having on county income demographics. County data from...
The county has limited data about whoβs paying its Preschool for All tax, which only went into effect in 2021. Still, some seized on a 14% dip in high-income filers between 2021 and β22 to suggest the tax drove wealthy ppl away. New data complicates that narrative.

For example, we've long been fascinated by councilor Angelita Morello...
...who went from being a gofer (for Jo Ann Hardesty, no less) to primo-peacock and most glamorous member of the socialist high school cafeteria clique running the city council. Here's her bedroom...
*an AI photo of a bedroom with a carpet that shows a diagram of South America, a miniature bus, and giant lipstick*
I kinda love that my haters think Iβm a glamorous socialist who loves lipstick and buses??? SLAY

I think it's worth noting that Rep. Nosse, who represents arguably the most bike- and ped-friendly district, was the one to motion to adopt the amendment that will defund Safe Routes to School, off-road trails, and rail.

There is a real enemy to fight in this moment, and itβs not each other. To me thatβs the greatest tragedy of this time because I donβt know how we overcome this if we donβt work together.

Iβll be honest I thought it was dangerous when right wing folks were filming, felt less concerned when I realized it was revoke people, but a random man you donβt know with his face half covered following u/ filming you while youβre alone is not awesome.

So Iβll repeat again: Councilors cannot make statements on a land use decision like the Macadam permit or they could be deemed as biased when it comes back to Council for a decision. We would be recused from the vote.

I started getting followed on my way home from an anti-war rally by a guy who was filming me so I assumed he was a right wing agitator and then he was a revoke personβ¦demanding I answer why I support keeping the building open (Iβve never given a statement either way bc itβs a quasi judicial matter)

Pretty stunning fumble for governor Kotek. Keep this in mind now that she's forming committees to study "universal" preschool for the state while remaining an avowed foe of taxing the rich who routinely attacks the one program in the state that is on track to be universal without means-testing...
