> Daimler Truck North America said Friday it will spend $40 million to build a new electric vehicle engineering facility at its Swan Island headquarters, choosing Portland over two other sites it had considered. The company said it will also build a new $3 million Portland training facility.
I'm having a hard time believing, not that a #transportation agency would come up with a plan that was to sweep the broken glass and gravel off of the sidewalks and leave it in the bike lanes for a few days before sweeping it up, just that it wasn't done with intentional malice or disdain toward people on bikes. (months after it snowed and they graveled everything while plowing the snow onto the sidewalks) #BarburBlvd#pdxBikes#Portland#BikeTooter#ClimateDenial#CarSupremacy#ODOTGTFOpdx
Hey PDX folks! What local organization(s) do you think is/are doing the most effective job at combating homelessness? I'd like to donate a portion of my new raise.
After the protests and the library occupation at #Portland State, the university wanted police to monitor the 51st annual Naimuma Powwow, which was scheduled on campus for May 04. Organizers didn’t love that idea of having police there, so they rescheduled the powwow for May 25th.
Then something special happened: students and #Indigenous community members showed up on May 04 anyway, in the park blocks by the university, and held a spontaneous Powwow for #Palestine.
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee is reportedly secretly intervening to stymie Susheela Jayapal's (sister of Rep. Pramila) congressional race in Portland.
AIPAC is funneling money through 314 Action, which says it helps elect Democrats with a science background, in this case Maxine Dexter, a doctor.
Jewish Insider news had floated Dexter as a potentially pro-Israel candidate before she entered the race.
Rally at 1pm Thurs outside #Portland City Hall to save #PortlandStreetResponse from the proposed budget cuts, and sign up to testify after. Street Response has been far more cost-effective than police on calls for welfare checks or dealing with mental health issues on our streets without guns.
“…this #conservative campaign is not limited to #Portland—it’s a national trend that’s become particularly prevalent on the #WestCoast, as conservatives have infiltrated and are attempting to overthrow liberal strongholds in #Seattle and San Francisco as well.”

Apparently there's a mass protest for reproductive freedom in the planning stages for June 24th, the anniversary of the far right Supreme Court repealing Roe vs Wade, the day before I leave early in the morning for vidcon... It'll be exhausting but I'll see what I can find 😩 here's hoping someone involved in planning the #Portland version for it posts about it to something besides FUCKING FACEBOOK. 🙃🙃🙃
