$70 MILLION in taxpayer dollars. Two rail centers. Where are the results?

Nearly a decade later, one facility remains unfinished, the other sits largely idle, and both have run millions over budget.

Meanwhile, ODOT faces budget challenges, and Oregonians are being asked to dig deeper into their pockets.

Before taxpayers are asked to pay more, shouldn’t they get answers about where their money went?

Where’s the accountability?

You folks do realize it is not normal that there is no perimeter, no police presence, no cleanup effort, no body recovery effort. No NTSB.

Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

And this is why I don’t apologize for continuing to ask questions and not getting lost in emotional responses.

I still don’t know what to make of this “crash”, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna parrot the official narrative.

Congratulations to the ayatollahs on a truly magnificent achievement: spending decades and untold billions building an empire of terror that could ultimately be brought to its knees by someone unplugging the damn thing.

Iran’s sophisticated air defenses take years to replace. Its military hardware is increasingly difficult to replenish. Its currency has collapsed, its ports are choking under economic pressure, and its Russian sugar daddy is too busy feeding missiles into Ukraine to rescue Tehran’s revolutionary circus.

What an extraordinary return on investment.

For decades, these fanatical jackasses have screamed “Death to America,” threatened to annihilate Israel, financed Hezbollah and the Houthis, and strutted across the Middle East like they possessed the military power of God himself.

Now their grand strategy consists of hiding launchers, scattering equipment, rationing scarce weapons, and praying the next American strike doesn’t destroy something that takes four years to replace.

Meanwhile, the IRGC’s sprawling terrorist enterprise depends on electricity, functioning communications, industrial facilities, and oil revenues. Missile operations need power. Military factories need power. Their precious proxy armies need money.

Apparently, nobody at Revolutionary Headquarters bothered to explain that conquering the Middle East requires considerably more than screaming religious slogans while your electrical grid holds the entire operation together.

And here’s the deliciously humiliating part: America doesn’t have to destroy every Iranian weapon to make Tehran’s military nightmare substantially worse. The infrastructure supporting those weapons presents vulnerabilities of its own.

Imagine the strategic genius required to spend forty years promising America’s destruction while building a revolutionary empire whose military capabilities depend on irreplaceable equipment, increasingly scarce money, and an electrical system vulnerable to attack.

The ayatollahs wanted to send America back to the Stone Age.

Now they’re discovering that their own empire comes with a circuit breaker.

And Uncle Sam knows exactly where to find the damn switch. (article below)

This panel decision puts WA Sec of State Steve Hobbs in a pickle. The DOJ asked for the ballots to be sequestered only until citizenship is confirmed. Hobbs admitted that the state does not have the tools to verify citizenship. So now Hobbs will have to decide to sequester the ballots or be subjected to prosecution. The other kicker: the ballots have likely already been tabulated, as the state immediately runs them through the machines.
