Floodwater is literally part of the ORS descriptions. Other SW&CDs take it seriously. Why not ours?

My bigger concern is what they don’t do. There’s a lot of urban floodplain area in Portland - not including the Airport Way area - and no plan to address it.

I’d love it if this board focused more on urban flooding and less on exporting money from Portland to help farmers in East County

“This new interpretation of Tinker was pushed for… by progressives who wanted to oust anyone who spoke against their views,” Randazza said. “Now they find out that when you unleash the poison gas of censorship, the wind always blows it back into your face.”

Will they bring brisket because that’s probably the best use of the Texas National Guard

As a federal judge's order confirms, Trump's bid to deploy the National Guard in Portland is neither warranted nor justified. Portlanders should continue to show the nation how wrong he is about what's happening here. Editorial: www.oregonlive.com/opinion/2025...

'Portland will defend the rule of law and the rights of our residents' – Mayor responds to activation of California guard One day after a judge blocked the mobilization of the Oregon National Guard, the federal government instead activated California National Guard troops. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson responds.

“Portland remains committed to protecting the right to protest and safeguarding our community's safety. I've said from the very beginning, the number of federal troops needed or wanted in our city is zero.”

I feel like we just skipped from “Maybe we should send troops to Ghorman” straight to the protest on the square

Lincoln used the military to free the slaves. Kristi Noem wants to use the military to rescue the right wing bloggers.

Oregon: We ultimately have a perception vs. reality problem. Trump thinks there's a war going on. In reality, Portland is a beautiful city.
