Portland In The Spotlight

      Comments Off on Portland In The Spotlight

Portland continues to be a source showing everyone in America what is really going on.  On Friday, the US Attorney for Oregon announced the arrest of 18 individuals involved in the rioting in downtown.  They are charged with a variety of federal offenses ranging from assaulting a federal officer to arson.

In a statement released Friday, Renn Cannon, the Special Agent in Charge at the FBI’s Portland office, said the agency had been helping investigate crimes on federal property in the city.

“Our investigations involve specific violations of federal law, including arson, the use of improvised explosive devices, and interstate transportation of stolen goods.”

Portland Continues to Supply Insights

As many people know at this point, federal law enforcement officers have gone undercover in Portland.  There have been multiple videos posted on social media of persons being detained, placed into unmarked vehicles and whisked away.  High level Democrats have called the detaining of suspects something akin to kidnapping or worse.

Portland Insanity

Mayor Wheeler has lost all sense of his responsibilities to the city of Portland.  Wednesday night Mayor Ted Wheeler, who has allowed mayhem to take over his city, marched with the rioters and stood by while Antifa tried to tear down the gate to the federal courthouse.  All the while Wheeler was trying to blame the Feds for the problems he created.  Wheeler is the light-haired man with the goggles.

Portland Is A Breeding Ground

      Comments Off on Portland Is A Breeding Ground

Portland has been a breeding ground for Antifa and other violent groups for many years. As noted yesterday, it is now a live experiment to see just how far Antifa, BLM and others can go before the local government will step in to stop them.  It seems that, so far, there is little that the anarchists can do that will prompt the Marxist mayor to say enough. And forget about the bought-and-paid-for Soros Governor.

If you speak out against these groups, there is a good chance you will receive a beating.  Just ask Andy Ngo.  According to Antifa, et al, speech that they disagree with is violence against them.  This allows them the “right” to respond with physical violence.

Democratic Chaos

Are the Democrats starting to lose control of their voting base?  Clearly the proletariat do not want to listen to Nancy Pelosi here.  Have the ancient and increasingly senile leaders of the Democratic Party become so desperate to retain power that they will have to be dragged screaming and kicking from their sinecures?

Penn State Punts

News is now surfacing that some NCAA conferences are punting on a full football season.  Why this is happening is a topic for another post.  While many of us have recognized for some time that higher education in this country has been compromised on the altar of political correctness, the recent lack of intestinal fortitude by Penn State is stunning.

The month of May saw record-setting job gains.  The May jobs report was expected to show job losses of 7 to 8 million.  This was the analysis of the financial experts and Nobel laureate economists.  Instead 2.5 million jobs were ADDED to the economy.  Never in the history of the country have we seen a turnaround like this from one month to the next.  The financial experts got the sign wrong!

More winning.  The June jobs report is now available.  The “experts” had predicted a gain of around 2.5 million jobs. However, the “experts” were way off again.  June saw a growth of 4.8 million jobs, shattering the record set in May.  In addition, the May numbers were revised upward by nearly 200,000 jobs.

Nike is reporting a loss of $790 million (51 cents per share) for its most recent quarter.  This compares to $989 net income a year ago, just before they made their ill-advised business decision about Colin Kaepernick.  Everyone remembers Nike went all-in on their social justice model to make Black Lives Matter activist Colin Kaepernick the image of their brand.

Nike has been trying various approaches to hide the absolutely devastating effect that decision has had on their business.  Nike knows how bad a decision this was.  How many times have you seen a Nike commercial this year that featured Kaepernick as their brand image?
