And if you continue to question me… Rather than the people in charge… All I will do is block you because apparently that's your purpose… To harass fellow citizens… And I'm done with that… I'm here to talk to my elected officials and for others to read what I want them to know.

The people who are responsible for the health of the county…

I'm also finding it very interesting, but not a single other elected official has spoken out about this

… Let's just watch and see

Again, I do not understand why you're questioning me… Point your attention to the county

It's not the first season of hot weather… Please show me where he has spoken out publicly about what he would like to see done… I can't find anything… We know about extreme heat… Please point me to the efforts that he has made already to help with policy development

Mutual aid is the new phrase.

It's neighbor helping neighbor bc the govt is not capable.

Is the message out of MG.

I'm waiting for other electeds reactions. So far, I see none.

How about reacting to D4 saying the system won't come through. (Ie govt fails us) Mutual aid activate.

Is that happening in your district? Why or why not?

I wish she would step down and say this is too much.

At least we could trust that out of her mouth.

Here's the main page. I'm browsing through so the things to see if I can find anything about extreme heat.

The meetings are easy to find here, with all the attachments. Way better than YouTube.

This was on his councilor page and not his personal.

I hope he learns more about how the city works and activates that (as discussed in city/county meetings)

Your bio gives you away.

Why aren't the Whole Twelve coming out with if this is how we are going to respond as a city?

Stop questioning my motives. It's rude.

I'm guessing you're part of the DSA.

He's acting like the white savior. Alone with his DSA activists. I'm allowed to question his motives tyvm

I think it's kind of rude of you to suggest that I don't want to give out supplies to the vulnerable. during the heatwave.

I think it was wrong that it was done this way.

Bc now we're fighting rather than helping bc of semantics and Portland rodents.

Morillo said the white savior thing.

I think the whole M110 was a poorly run program that backfired. I use meth pipes as the symbol of that incompetence

We vote yes and then get poorly run programs, incl preschool for all. Gasp!

When are we allowed to say- can you do your jobs better?

He's an elected leader not a citizen.

Mutual aid is run by the citizens for the citizens.

If it has been anyone other than MG, we would have heard hands off our mutual aid.

It's a turn for Portland.

I want people to have the things they need to survive

I think it's part snub to Jesse Burke

Pull out playbook asking for Mutual aid out of the pockets of the white saviors (lovingly said by Morillo last week) that reside here.

Rather than be ready?

Great future we have ahead.

This may not need the right one either. Seems Avalos ought to be louder.

If I am able to find anything, I'll post it here but it really ought not to be this hard.

I want to know what happened between the meeting on extreme heat (in may?) and todays request for mutual aid. I want to know what happened in between

Who dropped the ball. I didn't

Was this mutual aid mentioned in the meeting. I'm trying to find out

you're not helping so why be here? To annoy?

Here's the link to the session. (Posted wrong one before)

Around 500 watched.

I'll listen to it as I'm doing other things.

I shouldn't have to play this close attention. I'd like to be able to trust the ppl in charge.

They didn't have the meeting in April. They had one in May.

I'd like to hear what happened between this meeting in May and today's call for mutual aid.

This should be a question being asked by others too.

By putting it in this public space, maybe others will look at the source.

Around 2000 watched the imp moving council meeting about ICE

Was there a the council meeting in April about the heat coming in July? I can go look.

I pay attention.

I feel like I'm surrounded by petulant children that only expect to be in safe spaces where they only hear what they like.

I have no anger.

I have opinions. I get annoyed.

Bc so many Portland posters like to jab at other Portlanders rather than "ruin their reputations with the council people" (I'm guessing)

I give enough context that I'm not a Russian bot. But I think my views are as equal as yours on here.

But then others wouldn't see there are other points of view.

We can't rely on the media to share all the points of view.

Instead use our public spaces.

It's free and takes no time

If we all used it with real opinions, the staffers would get valuable information

>10000 watch council meetings

Bc I get all my info from blue sky.

What a sleuth.

You're wasting time looking me up.

Why bother?

All I see is you criticizing others.

I want the leaders to know I'm not happy.

This is my way.

You do you, which seems to be criticizing other citizens. I'd love to get offline. Will the city ever work again? I hope so.

You're online too!

Why is it ok for you to be here, but not me?

Pls don't tellme what to do.

You do what you think is right. I will do what I need to do.

Why does it feel like it is citizen against citizen? Rather than at JVP? The real criminal.

I want seniors to get services.

We have been enabling public drug use for years. It's not new and it's contributing bankruptcy to our money problems

There are always going to be choices and we've been making bad ones

Listen to Novak. He says it. Do you yell at him? Or just your fellow citizens?

Glad you're getting pushback bc you should be.

Why aren't you calling out JVP?

Or Megan Moyer?

Use names to shame them into action.

You are one of the few in the city in charge. You knew this was coming. Detail what you've done up to this week to avoid this and why we're in crisis mode.

he's clearly trying carve out a lane of sorts.

But typical that anyone who pipes in must be a terrible person.

I think JVP should already have a plan in place. What is it? Why can't he clap back at her, rather than us?

Why is this good leadership?

Is this what you want to happen? That we react with mutual aid offers.

I agree the folks need water but we knew that before. Why is there not an actual process?

They know how to give out meth pipes. Why aren't they prepared more for heat waves?
