Oregon May Make Producing Meat Illegal

https://moonbattery.com/oregon-may-make-producing-meat-illegal/

Excerpt:

If you want to see the future under Democrat rule, look to the Left Coast, where liberals are solidifying control. In Oregon, an impending ballot initiative may make providing for a normal human diet into a crime.

IP 13 will be on the ballot next fall. It eliminates exceptions to animal cruelty laws that are required for any number of activities that have been key aspects of human existence since before recorded history, including animal husbandry, hunting, and fishing. According to John M. Simpson of the law firm Duane Morris LLP, it would make any injury to an animal that results from the following activities a criminal offense:

• Treatment of livestock transported by owner or common carrier.

• Rodeos or similar exhibitions.

• Commercially grown poultry.

• Use of good animal husbandry practices.

• Slaughtering of livestock in compliance with state law.

• Fishing, hunting and trapping otherwise lawful under state law.

• Wildlife management practices under color of law.

• Lawful scientific or agricultural research or teaching that involves the use of animals.

• Reasonable measures to control of vermin or pests.

• Reasonable handling and training techniques.

The only exceptions allowed to animal cruelty laws would be for self-defense or veterinary practices.

Even producing leather may soon be illegal in Oregon, unless the hide comes from an animal that has died of natural causes.

General Raymond Takes the Space Force to War Against Racism

Another disloyal general puts critical race theory ahead of national security.

https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2021/07/general-raymond-takes-space-force-war-against-daniel-greenfield/

Excerpt:

The Space Force was created at the end of 2019. Six months later it declared war on “racism”.

“Racism is an enemy,” Gen. John Raymond and Chief Master Sgt. Roger Towberman declared, disabusing anyone who might have thought the military enemy was Communist China, Iran, Russia, or any of the other antagonists that the Space Force was tasked with countering.

...Gen. Raymond, the Chief of Space Operations, told the ‘guardians’ of the Space Force that their oath to protect and defend the Constitution meant racism was “an enemy we must defeat” by fighting unconscious biases and owning the problem by having “uncomfortable conversations.” Buzz words like “unconscious bias” and “implicit bias” and “structural racism” (illegal under the 1964 Civil Rights Act) give the ideological game away. When there are no significant racists, the promoters of systemic racism conspiracy theories claim that they’re hiding in the shadows.

The oath to protect the Constitution was being twisted to push the anti-white racism of the left known as critical race theory.
When Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron, criticised the radicalization of the military in his book, Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military, he was quickly removed from his post, where he headed a unit whose vital task was identifying and tracking ballistic missile launches.

Lohmeier described his base commander sending out documentaries which supported Black Lives Matter and attacked President Trump, and spoke of the “intensive teaching that I heard at my base—that at the time the country ratified the United States Constitution, it codified white ­supremacy as the law of the land.” This was critical race theory Marxism, whose lies were aimed at sapping the morale of America’s military and undermining the determination of its members to defend their country.

After discussing the leftist invasion of the military on a podcast, Lohmeier was removed by Lt. Gen. Stephen Whiting for being “partisan.”

...The Space Force’s leadership had decided to become the most radical part of the military through identity politics. Its all-female unit, and its emphasis on the gender, sexual orientation and race of those it was promoting were divisive and undermined readiness, unit cohesion and morale.

...”It is President Trump’s belief that the United States must remain as dominant in space as we are on land and sea and the air,” Vice-President Pence had told Gen. Raymond before he took his oath. “And your charge is to see to that mission with the United States Space Force.”

“The best way I know how to do that is to do so from a position of strength,” Gen. Raymond had assured him.

But there’s little strength to be seen in the Space Force under Raymond’s leadership.

Oregon Government shows they don’t need your vote

https://oregoncatalyst.com/54348-govt-shows-vote.html

Excerpt:

You might be under the impression that we live in a country governed by the people’s representatives.

Think again.

More than 20 percent of Oregon’s House reps were APPOINTED to their positions by elites in government. Yes, they had to run for RE-election to their spots. But the power of incumbency is such that once you’re in, anyone running against you has about one chance in ten of beating you.

Second example: state Judges in Oregon. These men and women make some of the most consequential decisions about our lives and liberty.

Nearly all were originally appointed to their positions by just one person: the Governor. For the last ⅓ of a century that has meant Democrat Governors. And when Judges retire, nearly all quit mid term as part of the scam that lets the Governor name THEIR replacement. The chance of actually replacing a sitting judge with one chosen by voters is almost zero.

There’s the Governor herself, who slid into her job originally after John Kitzhaber slithered out on corruption charges. Re-election, virtually guaranteed.
