Jon Isaacs of the Portland Metro Chamber is spending hundreds thousands of dollars to protect his (public $ subsidized) job. Some councilors won’t work with him anymore because of his inability to control his horrific temper. He knows that if DSA is here to stay, his lucrative grift is over.
hi, corporate lobby expert here. it’s not funny. corporate lobbies only do this when they’re in extreme distress.

I think PPB really thought they had a strong hand here. Turns out the memory hole doesn’t quite work like in the book. Mitch is looking like mayoral material, not resignation.

The Portland Metro Chamber works for the biggest corporations and to line the pockets of their staff. Did you know that the Downtown Clean and Safe Program sends public money to pay for a large chunk of the exorbitant salaries of these do-nothing grifters? DSA fights for you!
Willamette Week@wweek.com · 22h agoThe money behind that billboard can be traced in part to the Portland Metro Chamber, the city’s chamber of commerce—and the message shows how eager the city’s business lobby is to unseat Councilor Mitch Green. www.wweek.com/news/city/20...
i'm traveling and can't sit down to write out the portland police's history of using town halls, press conferences, and leaks to campaign against elected officials but they are repeat offenders and we should call it what it is: election interference by a cartel of armed washington state residents

The Portland conservatives are running on a platform of “better things are not possible” in 2026.
Juan C Chavez@inafutureage.bsky.social · 22h agoSo the responses I’m seeing from Chief Day and Councilor Clark to @councilorgreen.bsky.social’s heartfelt plea to build a world that doesn’t need police or prisons is the same line I’ve always heard, “Well that’s not *our* reality.” No duh! You’re actively standing in the way of it.
This is crazy. The report predicts that by 2030 datacenters will use 40% of Oregon's electricity.

Oh, look. @shanedkavanaugh.bsky.social has successfully driven a wedge between the PPB Chief and a city councilor becuase he was following up on the personal vendetta of a random fitness instructor who thinks he’s a journalist and regularly hangs with someone fired from city hall. mrf.lu/2z_n9a
Portland police chief says, ‘I no longer have confidence’ in Mitch Green after anti-police tweets resurface
Chief Bob Day’s comments follow a call from the Portland police and firefighters' unions that the councilor resign.

The Daily Mail is also very upset about Mitch’s spicy Tweets about “holocaust denying, misogynist, homophobic neo-Nazi” Nick Fuentes.

Knee-Jerk Reactions to Councilor Green’s Tweets Are Hypocritical and Dangerous - Portland Mercury

Today is the 20th anniversary of the death of James Chasse. Chasse was beaten to death by Portland Police in the Pearl District despite not posing a threat. Having broken 16 of his ribs, they took him to jail instead of a hospital at first, and only after the jail declined to admit him due to ...
It’s pretty funny for Chief Day to suggest Councilor Green can’t evaluate the police objectively when the mayor and deputy city administrator just went against the city’s own civilian police oversight agency in deciding not to hold former chiefs responsible for use of force failures in 2020.
Chief Bob Day: “Portland Must Be Better Than This”
Chief Day is releasing a statement regarding a Councilor's past comments about the Portland Police Bureau and public safety as a whole.

"Monsters" "cowardly." Any objective observation of the bureau's 6000 uses of force in 2020 might have anyone with a conscience saying the same. #WeAreAllMitch
Portland DSA@portlanddsa.bsky.social · 3d agoWhy would anyone Tweet negatively about the Portland Police in 2020?
Councilor Eric Zimmerman likely committed a felony by trading contributions (but won’t be prosecuted), according to the Oregonian
The Oregonian@oregonian.com · 2mo agoAbout a dozen candidates for Portland City Council and mayor traded contributions, potentially violating state election law. https://mrf.lu/2TPmF
The right wing media and police union have now made “what were you doing in 2020?” an election question. We want to know what other candidates were doing. We know that Mitch, Tiffany, & Angelita were fighting for racial justice. We think there’s a pretty strong chance many of them were not.
Oregonian reporter Shane Kavanaugh platformed a blogger abuser to attack a person who was Tweeting (and more) in solidarity with his fellow journalists who were being assaulted en masse by police during the 2020 protests.
Oni_no_pantsu👹👖🚲🐸@oninopantsu.bsky.social · 2d agoWeird how the Oregonian forgets how its reporters were brutalized by PPB during a time when Mitch Green’s was tweeting mainstream Portland sentiment. opb.org/news/article...
Councilor Green responds to (an extremely cynical and unhinged) call from the Portland Police Association to resign. He did not resign and, instead, stood on business.

The Zenith Franchise Transfer ordinance just failed at Council! 6-5 because Loretta Smith is gone. No Mayor tiebreaker. Hell yeah Dunphy, Green, Morillo, Koyama Lane, Avalos, and Kanal!!!
Out supporting the Frontline city workers in their fight for a fair contract! Solidarity with CPPW, Protec, and Liuna! Down with billionaires! Up with the working class!
But Mitch Green tweeting some negative things about cops in 2020 is a “reckless, destructive, and violent ideology,” according to the police union.
SometimesPDX@sometimespdx.bsky.social · 3d agoThe PPB/PPA potentially lost Hardesty an election with their disinformation campaign, which cost the City a $680,000 settlement and untold expenses investigating and defending itself in court. But they want us to show the police honor and respect and think a lack of deference is disqualifying.
