Portland Facing Shigella Outbreak, Generally Found in Third-World Countries
Oregon officials have embraced homelessness so much that last April, my colleague Mike LaChance reported that Democrats in the state proposed a law that would expand the rights of homeless people by decriminalizing encampments and allowing homeless people to sue if they feel harassed.
As a result of poor policy and a disregard for true public health and safety concerns, the most populous city in that state is now experiencing a bacterial outbreak found usually in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.
Shigella infections lead to profuse diarrhea, fever, and stomach pains…and these symptoms can last for weeks. Sometimes, bowel habits (frequency and stool consistency) do not return to normal for several months. And, as an added bonus, in addition to being spread by fecal matter, Shigella can be transmitted via sexual contact.
Oh Awesome, Portland Homeless camps are 3rd world shitholes
I left a red state and moved to a blue state. The politics and lack of healthcare in Texas drove me back to Oregon.
Although the political environment mismatch was a strong reason I left Texas, other reasons contributed to my move away from the state.
I lived in a suburb of Houston and traveled on highways daily. I didn't like the high transportation costs, including toll roads and all the gas needed to make my commute.
The extreme weather, which included hurricanes, major lightning storms, hail, and smoggy polluted air quality, was also not aligned with the quality of life I desired.
I loved the radio stations, the Tex-Mex, and the barbecue in Texas — and I was earning more money — but I knew when it was time to go. It's more expensive, but I'm happier in Portland.

Wait a minute, you left Houston because of a lack of healthcare? HOUSTON? One of the consistently top 10 rated cities in the country for healthcare.
Or did you leave because Texas wasn't giving you FREE healthcare? I see on US news and World Reports that while Texas has higher quality of healthcare the "access" is low, while Oregon has low quality of healthcare but ranks 7th for "access" (I.E. taxpayer funded).
Dogged By Crime Concerns, Dems Walk Back Their Own Reforms Ahead Of 2024 Election
A slew of Democratic enclaves are moving toward tougher crime policies in a reversal of 2020 reforms in the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election.
America’s Democratic cities and states are increasingly adopting stringent law-and-order measures that would have been considered taboo in the years following 2020’s Black Lives Matter protests opposing law enforcement agencies. They are amplifying police authority in response to heightened public concern and outrage fueled by a surge in crimes like murder, carjacking and retail theft.
Liberal state declares war on small farmers and homesteaders: War on food is spreading in U.S. through land-use restrictions, geoengineering and waves of propaganda
The owner of Yanasa Ama Ranch shared a 20-minute video explaining what is going on in Oregon as bureaucrats erroneously classify small family farms and homesteads as “concentrated animal feeding operations,” or CAFOs, in order to shut them down. Any feeding area that has a concrete, rock or gravel floor falls into this category, which would include most small dairy or egg farms.
If you have two or three milking cows, the rancher explains, you are now targeted by the state for closure.
The rancher further explains in the video:
“The state of Oregon has effectively shut down small farms and market gardens on a large scale, and they’re actually sending out cease-and-desist letters to farms and they’re using satellite technology to find their victims and send them these letters that say you can’t operate.”
The below video is 20 minutes but the most critical information is contained in the first 5 or 6 minutes. Note that he says most of these anti-farming, anti-private property laws start in places like Washington and Oregon but end up spreading to other states over time. That is so true!
Wake up folks. The tyranny is gaining ground. The war on food is heating up and will inevitably cause a major worldwide famine at some point. Remember what I’ve said in previous articles, that depopulation is the ultimate goal of the globalists. There is no other explanation behind their rabid lust for World War III, their relentless pushing of toxic vaccines, harmful chemicals sprayed in the atmosphere and put in our food, their celebration of abortion and all things LGBTQ+, and the list goes on. The more death and sterilizations they can foster, the happier they will be.
There was some good news on the atmospheric spraying this week. The state Senate in Tennessee has passed a bill banning all such spraying within its borders, whether it be for geoengineering or other purposes. (See story here).
- Watch geoengineering being conducted in plain sight.
- See 50 years of UN tracking weather modification projects.
- See the latest release of the Shopper’s Guide to the most sprayed/toxic foods to avoid.
- Does it seem like there are way more chemtrails today than just a few years ago? That’s probobly because five years ago, in May 2019, the Yale School of the Environment published a paper telling us that more scientists had concluded that geoengineering must be considered as a “last resort” to control global warming.
- And here is former CIA Director John Brennan admitting in a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) that geoengineering is real, not a conspiracy theory.
The globalists are also waging war against small farms and homesteaders on the propaganda front.
The far-left media group Media Matters, funded by George Soros and other globalists, recently put out a hit-piece article targeting homesteaders as “white nationalist” and “anti-government.” How dare they seek to grow their own food! They must be racists! See video below.

Look at the Crazy List of Things Illegal Immigrants Get for ‘FREE’ in Liberal Massachusetts
Liberal Massachusetts is overrun with illegal border crossers and there’s really no wonder why when you see the laundry list of things that are provided for ‘free’ courtesy of taxpayers in the Bay State.
All of these perks just act as incentives, driving more illegals into the state.
And remember, there are American citizens in Massachusetts who are poor and don’t get nearly as much from the state.
Longtime Boston talk host Howie Carr posted this list on his website:
That is only about half of the list, if you can believe it.
Back in 2020 during the BLM and Antifa riots in cities around the U.S. there were some notable examples of people who lived in wealthy gated areas who took the pro-rioter "burn it all down" approach, that is until it got a little too close to where they live.
The issue of illegal immigration and the increasing problem of squatters may well be one of those issues where rich libs suddenly don't like the effects of the kinds of policies they voted for (things that were supposed to be everybody else's problem).
Here's yet another example of "when what you voted for backfires":
Well would you look at this:
The fastest way to Red Pill a Progressive, give them what they ask for

Seattle closes gifted and talented schools because they had too many white and Asian students, with consultant branding black parents who complained about move 'tokenized'
- Seattle ended its gifted and talented program due to racial inequities
- Teachers are now required to make individual learning plans for all students
- Some parents fear their students will get left behind and slow their progress
Seattle has shuttered its gifted and talented programs because the school board determined they had too many white and Asian students.
The district began phasing out its Highly Capable Cohort schools and classrooms for advanced students in the 2021-22 school year because they found it had too many racial inequities. School bosses said black and Hispanic students were underrepresented at the schools.
According to Seattle Public School data, of the highly capable students in the 2022-23 school year, 52 percent were white, 16 percent were Asian and 3.4 percent were black.
During a January 22, 2020, school board meeting, parents of black students in the Highly Capable Cohort asked the board to consider finding ways to incorporate students of color into the gifted program rather than shut it down.
Then school board vice president Chandra Hampson slammed those parents saying, 'this is a pretty masterful job at tokenizing a really small community of color within the existing cohort.'
