Rip City!

Crazy what Fred Durst from limp bizkit is looking like these days.

Step 1: Join DSA. Step 2: Learn from seasoned organizers. Step 3: Win big victories for the working class!

I filed my first new private sector unit* at CWA 7901 today pls 👏 *filed my first public sector unit in December

When I was a kid I lived through the Iraq war. Now I’m an adult and I’m living through the grok war

Serial harasser and bigot Brian Owendoff is back in the news today. 👇 Owendoff’s antics and lack of self control have given us a glimpse into the right wing networks that work behind the scenes to keep the rich and powerful in control. Also, when will Dan Ryan release his texts with Owendoff?

Portland DSA steering committee elections are this week! If you’re a member, you should have an OpaVote link in your email inbox. Check out the Organize for Power slate: A group of hard-nosed organizers who have a record of getting wins for the working class. Endorsed by @chaichiforor.bsky.social

Gov. Kotek tried to destroy preschool for all on behalf of the rich and was defeated handily by parents, teachers, unions, and socialist electeds. Now she’s retreating by announcing some vague panel to study the issue. The working class is strong when we fight together for what we deserve. 💪

We… would prefer that our members’ bosses not be armed at the office…

Any day is a great day to join DSA!

Deep Jesse lore. My dad worked on the 84 & 88 Jackson campaigns. My mother’s Lutheran, my father’s Jewish. As a favor Reverend Jackson baptized me at my mom’s church. Reverend Jackson is my namesake. Picture of the post game with me in my dad’s arms as Rev Jackson kisses my grandmother.

Jan. 23, 2026 will be remembered as the beginning of the end for the ICE regime grasping the throat of the US working class. A coalition of unions - including our sister local CWA 7250 - in collaboration with community groups, has called for a general strike of no working, no shopping, & no school.

Contradictions Rule Everything Around Me

The vibe of this council meeting.

It's an interesting time in Portland city politics. -Messages obtained by the Mercury contain a slew of offensive tropes sent during a council president election. -The Council Alliance of Workers union is calling on city councilors to uphold their commitment to labor rights Good Morning, News 👇

Motion to rename Robert’s rules: Bob’s Laws

Real big article day yesterday 📰

“The termination of a lead union organizer during the fragile, initial phase of a union drive is an exceptionally severe act. […] This action, taken by the City's highest elected and appointed officials, constitutes ‘egregious’ conduct[.]”

Public Records Requests rule everything around me.

Match made in hell

I just found two relics that have just been collecting dust next to my desk in the corner of the office. The first is a resolution creating the Oregon and Washington Typographical Society from the Journeymen Printers Convention in 1853.

Got to celebrate @drmitchpdx.bsky.social 44th birthday. Same time as the @portlanddsa.bsky.social holiday party. Walking back to the car, we ran across a hot dog cart and that felt like kismet!

I canvassed hard for @jakeephros.bsky.social in Jersey City! Excited to see him & @joel4jc.bsky.social prevail in runoff races for JC City Council! Big dubs for @north.dsanj.org if you want socialists in offices around the US join us in @demsocialists.bsky.social act.dsausa.org/s/3546.hO3eBk

You could be recruit # 10,000 of the @demsocialists.bsky.social fall drive if you used this link today! act.dsausa.org/s/3546.hO3eBk

The CEI Hub, a six mile stretch of fuel storage tanks between the Willamette River and Forest Park stores 90% of Oregon's liquid fuels. Everyone who works in or near this geography is at risk of the impacts of a world-historic industrial disaster. We, as workers, can prevent this future.

Exciting news! This November I began my new job as @cwa7901.bsky.social new union organizer. I am also their only staff, so no staff union drama 😉 I’ll be leading Organizing (internal/external), as well as helping with their political work, and building up an infrastructure!

On weds night, after the crowd spent hours saying Angelita was uniquely pro-ICE (???) clr. Koyama lane highlighted that Mitch (a white guy) co-sponsored the reso. The crowd then began bullying Koyama lane

How it feels to delete Outlook

Celebrating this victory today! Just after the state AG settled with a big landlord Corp for using robot ripoff software, Portland has banned its use! Thanks to @councilormorillo.bsky.social for leading on this.

A better future was within reach and it’s getting rat fucked out from under us by our scarecrow freak goblin mayor

Metro Chamber exposed for performative Anti-ICE approach. Build the organization that will fight ICE from the city council and the state legislature! Join DSA Today! act.dsausa.org/s/3546.hO3eBk

Welp, it looks like the Portland Metro Chamber’s solidarity with the community against ICE and a federal invasion ends at charging an impact fee to property owners who would rent their properties to detention facilities that harm neighbors & drain public resources. Can’t say that we’re surprised!

Our 6 am poll visibility crew. My ankles are destroyed but it’s worth it to be one small drop of water in the absolute tidal wave our organizing can accomplish!
