Leftists live in an echo chamber. A family member just posted on FB a picture of her & husband proudly getting their new COVID jab. They’re in their 40’s. The same couple that had a ‘jabbed only’ party after it came out.

You’d have thought everyone by now would be aware of the adverse effects, the lack of effectiveness, and that it doesn’t stop contraction or transmission.

Downtown Detroit is getting gentrified, it’s actually pretty cool there now. They’ve done a lot of stuff along the Detroit River.

As a ‘Michigander’ at heart, I’d really like to check it out for myself.

CNN and MSNBC are designed to uninform dipshits like these two.

If I may -
CNN and MSNBC are designed to uninform average and above folks like these two.

2,300 mile trip. True (not elite) lefties would have taken a smelly bus though two breakins in two days might make them feel more street cred (folks gotta eat, gotta smoke, toke)

Elites would do it in a Granholm approved EV taking as long as louis and clark if they ever got there.

I knew some folks in Eugene, decades ago. Eugene was starting to get bad. They had a solution fir not getting busted windows. They just left heir car unlocked, and nothing more than a little spare change in the ashtray. Today they might find that someone had moved in overnight.

Gee, these dimwits could have saved $1000 on gasoline alone if they had simply been reading FR every day and they would have never even considered going to Portland.

But, another thing I have noticed is that Democrats, and leftists in general, just love to visit Cuba.

There has to be a screw less in the brains of leftists who like to visit hell-holes.

Over the summer a friend of mine drove from Texas to southern California to drive up the California coast to the Canadian border then back again to Texas. Big trip. People along the way were very interested in her trip but in northern California people started telling her to not go to Portland. Lots of people. She bypassed it based on their advice.

“””I’d much rather go to Detroit than Portland.””””


I’d much rather have a ‘root canal’ than go to either hell-hole.

I lived in Portland, Or. from 1973 to 2011 and it isnt the small little city that it used to be any longer. Progressive politics is directly, indirectly, and 100% responsible for the dangerous place it finds itself in now.

It is absolutely true, EVERYTHING dimocraps touch turns to crap. The sheeple dont learn that. Ship all illegals to blue states. Make it a structured program. Priortize based on electoral votes. Flood them.

Looks like the couple have not quiiiiite transitioned out of that Age of Infinite Wisdom.

But this incident will help ‘em along.

Yup.

Alinsky RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” You want sanctuary cities? We’ll give ‘em to you! Good and HARD.”

My brother worked his tail off, as a small business man, put two kids through college, and always drove a very used car. After the second one graduated, he treated himself to a nice BMW. Went to Portland this year, to visit the older son. When they recovered his stolen car a few weeks later, it had been stripped of anything of value, and converted into a rolling catalytic converter theft-mobile. Fortunately, it got wrecked beyond repair, so insurance covered most of the loss. Tow truck driver sent him a picture, including the trunk, filled with circular saws, jack stands, and a dozen catalytic converters.
