They want to keep their monthly mortgage payment between $3,000 and $3,500 — or about 30% of their monthly take-home income...

Ron Wyden (D-OR) responded to Israel killing some of Hamas’ leaders and its potential impact on ceasefire talks by stating that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “is going to just have to find a way to show some restraint and bring people together.” And Netanyahu, “in particular, is going to have to have some diplomacy to bring about restraint.” Co-host Elizabeth Dinh asked, “So, now to Gaza, of course, we want to talk about there was a wrench thrown in peace talks after the killing of some top...

Euthanasia is becoming legalized across the Western world. Pat McGeehan, Delegate of West Virginia, is fighting against it. Advocates employ slogans like “death with dignity,” and appeal to compassion; but, the actual results are much different. Already, a “suicide tourism” phenomenon has begun, with people flying to states like Oregon to get legal doctor-assisted suicide. Pat tells a story of one of his constituents who, tragically, was a victim of this. Likewise, Canada’s MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying) program has resulted in the deaths of over 40,000 people since 2016; with legislation only being passed recently to curb the amount...

Today, people caught with hard drugs (including heroin, fentanyl, LSD, and methamphetamine) should receive a $100 citation—max. But they can even have that waived if they call a toll-free number for a health assessment that can connect them to treatment and other services. Over 95 percent of people ignore the citations altogether. It didn’t take the police long to figure out writing them was a waste of time. They mostly gave up, which meant addicts were free to use narcotics openly, and they do.Timothy Desper works at the Portland Rescue Mission, a Christian nonprofit that helps people struggling with hunger,...

Pro-abortion lawmakers are looking to eliminate the few safeguards that are in place for preborn babies in Pennsylvania, where abortion is permitted through 24 weeks of pregnancy. Planned Parenthood Keystone is closing one of its facilities in a suburb of Philadelphia, complaining there aren’t enough abortion facilities, and blaming those safeguards. But as America’s abortion giant, it has played a big role in the decline of abortion businesses. In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Signe Espinoza, the executive director of Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania Advocates, said the abortion corporation’s Warminster facility will be closing this summer. In a statement, the...

"America is the land of opportunity." "I believe the most qualified person should get the job." "America is a melting pot." Those are examples of harmful "microaggressions," according to Columbia professor Derald Wing Sue, lauded by Oregon's state government as a "microaggressions expert." Now, under a soon-to-be-finalized ethics rule from the Oregon Medical Board, doctors who commit "microaggressions" risk losing their medical licenses. Under Oregon law, doctors who fail to report "unprofessional conduct" from themselves or a colleague within 10 business days can face severe penalties, including loss of license. The state's medical board is in the process of shoehorning...

An Oregon judge is facing heat for allowing second graders to serve as special jurors in a hit-and-run trial that occurred in April.

Wentworth wrote in the letter that “a large group of second graders entered the courtroom, presumably as part of a field trip from a local elementary school,” during the hit-and-run trial, as reported by The Oregonian. The students were reportedly on a...

A woman with a 'very dangerous' brain tumor broke down in tears as she revealed she cannot get surgery to remove it despite doctors saying she needs the procedure ASAP — because the hospital is full of COVID patients. Amanda Harris, from Portland Oregon, found out she had a brain tumor in October 2021, and was told by her neurologist that she needed to get it surgically removed as soon as possible or it could cause 'irreparable harm' to her brain. Her doctors are not sure if the tumor is cancerous or not, but because it is 'pressed up against...

As Democrats make their case to voters around the country this fall, one challenge is that some of the bluest parts of the country — cities on the West Coast — are a mess. Centrist voters can reasonably ask: Why put liberals in charge nationally when the places where they have greatest control are plagued by homelessness, crime and dysfunction? I’ll try to answer that question in a moment, but liberals like me do need to face the painful fact that something has gone badly wrong where we’re in charge, from San Diego to Seattle. ...the truth is that too...
