Summary: March 8, 2022, the filing deadline, ended with multiple legislative races in Oregon with no candidates—ten seats in total (4 seats with no Republican candidate; six with no democrat candidates). These uncontested seats were an opportunity for conservative candidates who could potentially have advanced to the general election simply by registering to run in the primary.
Take Action Briefing
What: Oregon needs good conservatives to run for office. The list below shows open seats with no current candidate. Who: All conservative Oregonians. Republicans and democrats. (NAVs don’t have primaries.) How: Take action right now register with the state of Oregon for one of the seats that currently have no candidates. When: Now, now, now! You must register for office by Tuesday, March 8, 2022 at 5 p.m. Why: If there are no other primary candidates for your political party, you will advance to the general election. In a year that should be good for conservatives up and down the ballot, way too many of these possible legislative seats have no candidates at. Do you really want to just give up a seat to the crazy Left? In New Jersey, some seats were won by conservatives in the general election spending less than $2,500. Oregon is struggling and they need your help!

What do Covid, Prisons, & the Elliott Forest have in Common?
Show Summary: This week, it’s a roundup of some craziness around Oregon. The continuing boondoggle that is the Elliott Forest. Governor Kate Brown(shirt) seizing power by changing legislation. Using covid to releasing prisoners, closing prisons — and giving one of them to OSU. A prison that just happens to be right on the edge of the Elliott.

This week, it’s a roundup of some craziness around Oregon. The continuing boondoggle that is the Elliott Forest as, once again, Oregon tries to divest itself of a billion-dollar asset that, by law, is supposed to generate income for the state school funds. But they’d rather stare at trees. (Literally!)
Be sure to listen to the bloviating answer to Bob Zybach’s question during OSU’s Q&A
And we talk with fan-favorite, Chuck Wiese, to give us his punditry about the emptying of prisons, one of which was given back to the federal government — but now Oregon wants to lease one of them (which just happens to be right on the edge of the Elliott) back from the feds and put those men-who-stare-at-trees in it. WHAT is going on.

Brown announced she was using her clemency powers to let those inmates benefit from Oregon Senate Bill 1008, which passed in 2019 and reforms the juvenile justice system. AG Perlow said, the Governor’s priority is offenders of crimes, many of them violent, and ensuring they have a ‘meaningful opportunity to be released’ before they complete their duly secured criminal sentences,” she said in a statement about the legal petition. “Victims of crime, and all other Oregonians, deserve the enforcement of their rights. It is essential that all Oregonians, including public officials, adhere to the rule of law.
If Gov. Kate Brown’s clemency powers remain unchallenged, it could mean the release of violent offenders, including a man who stabbed his grandmother to death, another who killed a woman with the mental capacity of a 12-year-old and then burned her body beneath a bridge, and a then-17-year-old who shot his older brother three times in the head.

Resisting Tyranny in Oregon: A Ministry of Truth — and Extorting Schools?
Show Summary: We’ve been telling you the Great Pushback is underway. People are done with mandates and the bureaucrats who enforce them. And now we’re seeing more people resisting tyranny in Oregon. Is Oregon primed to be the next Virginia? A strange fight over a county public health department’s desperate quest to be accredited. And Oregon attempting to blackmail a school into compliance.

The Great Pushback Against Tyranny
Have you noticed more and more countries are throwing off the mandates? First the U.K. Then Denmark. Now Finland. And others soon to follow.
And even here in the U.S., more and more cities and states are just done with the mandates.
Resisting Tyranny in Oregon
This week, we’re talking with two public-official heroes (in our book) who are standing up to the overreach of Oregon’s government — from inside government.
Mary Starrett, who tangled with her county’s public health board to get accurate data and more balance to their website, rather than just the official narrative. But doing so led to an strange fight with county health board. Which seemed oddly desperate to get a letter from the county commissioners as they sought accreditation from a non-profit no normal person has heard of. Or cares about.
Why so desperate? Could it be they want to be the “Ministry of Truth” for health? Setting up the one true narrative for covid? Why is Yamhill County Health so afraid of alternative treatments? “Accredited” sites are, of course, a means to look like theirs is the “sanctified source,” which then—psychologically—becomes the ministry of truth for all things covid.
And seizing control of the narrative stops people from being able to ask questions. Because under tyranny, you’re not allowed to ask questions. You’re not allowed alternative treatments. But you are allowed to obey.
Watch for Mary Starrett in future I Spy Radio shows.
Is Oregon Attempting to Blackmail the Alsea School District?
Marc Thielman, as Alsea school superintendent, seems to be always tangling with the State. This time, it’s about masks — and the state’s attempts to essentially blackmail Alsea into compliance.
Weird! Is it a mask mandate? Or a mask fetish? (Click for full size)
Recently, his school district decided to make masks optional. Why? Because that’s CDC guidance. (Bet you haven’t heard that, have you?) But Oregon can’t tolerate being disobeyed. Why does Oregon want so desperately to keep people — especially kids — in masks? It’s a weird psychosis, really.
And considering that more and more studies are showing the mandates, from lockdowns to masks and plenty in between, have done more harm than good, bureaucrats might just be headed for a lawsuit.
Marc Thielman was also the chief petitioner to get Real School Choice on the ballot, which would have created an amendment to Oregon’s constitution, giving it an extra level of security from a regular bill passed into law, making it harder for future legislators from dismantling it. But elected Democrats say they’re for education, just not good education and no one should be able to teach kids except democrats. Which is why democrat Secretary of State, Shemia Fagan, killed it. Find out the ridiculous, convoluted “reasoning” behind her decision. And why she was so wrong. But it’s not over. More resisting tyranny in Oregon on this front too.
Marc Thielman for Governor
Marc is also a candidate for governor on the Republican side. Which means its own set of challanges. Find out the roadblock the Oregon Republican Party (ORP) has set in front of candidates this election.
Hint. They need donors.

As mentioned on the show, right now, they need numbers. It’s the number of donors the ORP is looking at, not just dollars.

Fagan said in a statement that she rejected the measure because it violated the state’s “single subject rule,” which requires ballot initiatives to address a single subject, topic or issue.
Show Summary: Cancel culture is the opposite of freedom. It is an organized attempt to create false images to mislead, dehumanize, and destroy your political opponent. And no better example of that President Trump, the target of the biggest cancel culture effort ever. We discuss cancel culture with someone who is a target of it and look deeper into what happened a year ago January 6th at the Capitol.

Original Air Dates: January 8th & 9th, 2022 | Guests: Rob Taylor & Scott McEwen
This week: Cancel Culture
Cancel culture is a fairly new weapon, most often employed by the political Left, to attack and destroy their opponents. In part, because their own political ideology doesn’t hold up under genuine scrutiny so the best attack is to destroy your opposition.
Cancel culture most often targets shows or public figures to get them removed from the public domain. Removed. Destroyed so only the Left’s viewpoints are allowed to be heard. They also target businesses who are themselves conservatives, or who dare to support or advertise on conservative shows.
God forbid there’s another viewpoint than the Left’s.
It is the opposite of freedom. Because rather than just changing the channel the Left wants to remove what they consider “wrong think”. Imagine being so threatened by people thinking. To the point you have to destroy people who don’t think like you.
A Cancel Culture Target: Rob Taylor
Fellow radio host, Rob Taylor, whose show airs on one of the stations that also airs I Spy Radio, has ticked off the Left to the point that they want him removed. You see, differing opinions are just not allowed. Which is an odd thing for Coos County Oregon, which is one of the more conservatives areas in the state.
Don’t disagree. Or cancel culture will come for you
Tune in to hear what set off the organized attempt to have Rob’s show, The Rob Taylor Report, removed from the air waves. And find out how he’s fighting back to cancel cancel culture.
What can you do to help fight cancel culture? Don’t wait. Show your support for the shows you enjoy. Contact the stations you listen to (internet search using their call letters, like, “KWRO”) and let them know you like the show. That way, when cancel culture comes calling, they already know that show has support.
The Biggest Cancel Culture Target of All: President Trump
It’s no secret that, to the Left, the mere mention of “President Trump” is like splashing holy water on a vampire. The Left has made every attempt to destroy and remove him from society.
We saw it even before he was President Trump. The Deep State worked in coordination to provide backup to Hillary Clinton’s false claim that Trump was “colluding with the Russians.” Thanks to John Brennan, the then-head of the CIA, we know this to be true. He was in the White House briefing James Comey, then-head of the FBI, President Obama, and Vice President Biden. They all knew it was a lie. But three days after that meeting, James Comey opened operation Crossfire Hurricane.
Why is this important? Because it shows the depth the Deep State and the political left will go to mislead, smear, dehumanize, and destroy their political opponents. Donald Trump stood in their way of bleeding taxpayers for billions even trillions of dollars.
Scott McEwen: January 6 was not an Insurrection
We welcome back fan favorite, bestselling author Scott McEwen, to discuss what happened a year ago on January 6 at the Capital. We talk about the obvious (which means democrats are ignoring it) reason it wasn’t an insurrection.
Remember: Just because a democrat calls it an insurrection, doesn’t make it one.
And that’s true for so much else about this cancel culture we’re in. Just because democrats say it, doesn’t make it so. It’s not build back better, it’s funding for democrats. Donald Trump and his supporters aren’t “anti-American”, terrorists, or white supremacists, or any of a thousand other names and insults. The vaccines aren’t safe and effective. And 2020 wasn’t a secure election.
In fact, judging from January 6, a good rule of thumb is that if a democrat says it, the opposite is likely true.

It’s Christmas time. And that always makes us think about the Christmas story. So this week, we’re focusing on the importance of stories and storytelling. And, how this could lead to a happily ever after for Oregon.
Jim Huggins holds two doctorates, is an ordained pastor, has a master’s degree in engineering—and before that was a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Air Force. Now, he is the CEO, Producer, and Director of a successful film company, New Shepherd Films (www.newshepherdfilms.com). Could all that experience be just what Oregon needs?
Or we could just go on with reruns: keep electing the same people to office and somehow expect different results.

This week: Marc Thielman, superintendent of Alsea School District (the only school to stay open all through the 2020 covid lockdowns), republican candidate for Oregon governor, and chief petitioner for real school choice in, joins us to talk about why it’s so needed in Oregon
School Choice? Real School Choice? In Oregon? Wait, What…?
Yes. It’s true. Oregon just might get school choice. Thanks to on again, off again, covid lockdowns that follow whatever pops into Governor Kate Brownshirt’s head.
“Trust the science” has been one of the most persistent lies over the last two years. If you dare question the science, you’re ridiculed and labeled ‘misinformation.’ That’s not how science works. That’s not even how trust works. It is the business of science to question science. Instead, you’re told to shut up and put your mask on. Because our science says so.
– Mark Anderson
This week, we talk with Marc Thielman, who is chief petitioner on the ballot initiative to bring real school choice to Oregon. This ballot initiative would allow parents to put their children in a school of their choice. Whether that’s another public school, a charter school, home school, or a “micro school” — a modern-day version of an old-time, one-room schoolhouse.
Why Real School Choice is So Needed
Just to give people an idea of why school choice is so important, the Corvallis School District thinks math is racist. Or that teaching math is racist. Or, perhaps what they really think is people of color aren’t smart enough to get math, so they need to hold White kids back? Really? So they are dumping all kids, regardless of skill or competency, into the same class. No more advanced classes. No more slower track classes. Everyone will be forced into the same mold. Because everyone must be the same. Or at least not allowed to be different. And certainly not excel. Because that would be racist.
Imagine being a secondary school coordinator being this woke and not realizing how incredibly racist this sounds:
“I was able to walk into classes and identify whether they were a low or high track math class just based on the color of the students’ skin.”
So. What happens if a Black kid excels at math? Is it fair to hold them back and discourage them from excelling? Gosh. The problems you create when you see racism in everything. (Psst! That makes you the racist.)
How Real School Choice in Oregon would Work
Technically, parents have school choice. Sort of. The way it works now is the State “allows” parents to take their kids elsewhere to another school. But. They are punished financially by having to pay extra expenses (in addition to the taxes they already pay) for doing so. While their current school keeps all the money. That’s not real choice. (Although, it is a bit like the government saying, “Oh, we’re not forcing you to take the vaccine. But we’ll make sure you lose your job if you don’t.”) As it is, 100% of the public funds allotted to that child stays with the public school district the child is currently assigned to that child—regardless of where the child ends up.
The current system means only rich people get to have school choice. They’re the only ones who can afford the extra expenses.
The way Real School Choice works is a portion of the public funding dollars already attached to a child goes with that child wherever the child goes. This truly opens the door for parents to put their child in the school that is the best fit for their child.
Tune in to hear the rest of the details and why Real School Choice is SO important for Oregon parents right now.
Yes, Virginia, Oregon is promoting Critical Race Theory. And that’s not even the worst of it.

This week: Senator Dennis Linthicum (OR SD-28) joins us for our year in review as we look back at 2021 and take a look ahead at 2022.
A Year in Review: The Good, the Bad, and the Democrats
Last week we talked with Alek Skarlatos about the democrats’ gerrymandered congressional districts. This week we look a little deeper. Yes, the democrat gerrymandering is a problem but there is another monkey wrench they threw in the elections gears in 2021.
Actually, it’s more of a sledgehammer.
Be sure to check out the resources below for more info on China’s social credit score system democrats want to bring to the U.S. If you thought CRT was bad…
We also look ahead at 2022 and the challenges ahead. There are some great Republican candidates for governor. And, yes, there is a potential monkey wrench there too. Betsy Johnson. While she would be a far better democrat candidate than the ultra far left Tina Kotek or the so-called “moderate” carpetbagger Nicholas Kristoff, she’s running as an independent. Not a democrat.
That says a lot, doesn’t it?
Because she must not believe an independent-minded blue-dog democrat can win in Oregon. At least not get the win in the democrat primary. How will a third-party candidate impact the race? Split the votes and ensure a democrat win? Or split the democrats and let a Republican slip by?
We also look ahead to 2022. What are some of the key issues for Republicans to run on and attract both non-affiliated voters. And even democrats? Here’s a hint: we talked about one of them last week.

This week: Two guests this week but a common theme: silver linings. First up is candidate for Congress, Alek Skarlatos who is running again for CD4, despite the overwhelming advantage democrats gave to democrats running there—going from a +1 Republican to a +9 democrat with the redistricting.
A ten point swing? Can you be any more obvious about your gerrymandering, democrats?
But lo and behold a ray of sunshine broke through and Alek sees some real advantages for himself and Republicans running in other districts.
Alek Skarlatos: Running for Oregon’s CD4
What’s the sunshine? In case you missed it, Peter Defazio, long, long-time incumbent, decided to step down and not run in 2022.
Wait, what now?
Yes, despite being gifted a 10 point swing in Oregon’s newly drawn CD4 (going from a -1 D deficit to a +9 D advantage), DeFazio stepped down. This was a silver platter. What on earth must those internal polls have been showing?
Tune into hear other silver linings Alek sees — not only his own district but other districts in Oregon. In their greed, did Dems dilute Portland’s influence?
Real School Choice on the Ballot?
Then Donna Kreitzberg who managed to get past the first hurdle to put school choice—real school choice—on the ballot as a constitutional amendment. This is a game changer. Tune in to hear the details of why this could truly transform Oregon schools for the better.
Looks like all the fearmongering and on-again, off-again schools (not to mention parents, also at home with lockdowns, getting to see and hear exactly what their kids were being taught) ticked off the wrong people.

Burned Out Teachers Are Launching Their Own Schools Instead of Abandoning Their Passion—And Succeeding (Tampa Free Press, Dec 1, 2021)
“According to a survey by the RAND Corporation, almost one-quarter of teachers planned to leave the profession in 2021”
“Rather than abandoning their passion for teaching, some educators are discovering that they can do what they love and avoid the bureaucracy and stress of a conventional classroom by starting their own microschools. Microschools are modern twists on the quaint, one-room schoolhouse model”

Original Air Dates: Sept 18 & 19, 2021 | Sen. Dennis Linthicum & Patti Milne
This Week: Call for Grand Jury Investigation
Last week, Senator Dennis Linthicum surprised us when he casually mentioned he was heading to a press conference to discuss his call for a grand jury into covid-19 malfeasance.
Wait. What now…?
So of course we needed to have him come right back to talk about this. Dr. Henry Ealy and Leah Wilson have both called for a grand jury investigation into public officials’ willful misconduct by manipulating — fear mongering — the data, which has driven the panic-demic.
How We Got Here
It’s been just over 11 years since the democrats forced Obamacare on the nation. Or “Deemed it passed” as Nancy said. Which led to the democrats seeing massive losses in 2010. And losing both the house and the senate.
A couple years later, Oregon went through its own “Healthcare Transformation”, which put Oregon’s own version of Obamacare into place, in case Obamacare was ever tossed out.
So we thought it would be a good idea to look back at how we got here. How did we move from a free-market system for health care to one that now seems to think it can order you to inject yourself with experimental vaccines?
We talk with former county commissioner, Patti Milne, who was in the thick og the battle as democrats pushed through Oregon’s grand scheme. Except here’s the thing: they had willing (duped) allies in their republican counterparts.

Grand Jury Press Release & Info
The Press Release: Oregon Senators File Formal Grand Jury Petition Calling for Investigation into CDC’s Willful Misconduct to Hyperinflate COVID-19 Data Following Federal Law Violations (Stand for Health Freedom, Sept 16, 2021). Includes:
Uttar Pradesh, India Announces State is Covid-19 Free Proving the Effectiveness of “Deworming Drug” Ivermectin (Gateway Pundit, Sept 15, 2021)
The 33 districts in Uttar Pradesh, India have now become free from COVID-19 government informed on Friday. The recovery rate has increased up to 98.7% proving the effectiveness of Ivermectin as part of the “Uttar Pradesh Covid Control Model.”
The active caseload in Uttar Pradesh is down to 269, while the percentage of active cases against the total confirmed cases is 0 per cent. The active caseload, which was at a high of 310,783 in April, has reduced by over 99 per cent.
And this state is one of the five lowest Covid cases of all states in India. And it’s despite having only a low vaccination rate of 5.8% fully vaccinated compared to the USA that has 54% fully vaccinated.
The [Indian] government notification reads, “Doctors are advising to take ivermectin 12 mg to contain the impact of pandemic. This medicine is quite effective in protecting from covid-19. Therefore, we appeal each and every citizen to have this tablet.”
Idaho Doctor Sees 20-Fold Increase of Cancers
Idaho: U.S. doctor reports a ’20 times increase’ of cancer in vaccinated patients: ‘Post-vaccine, what we are seeing is a drop in your killer T-cells, in your CD8 cells’ (WND, Sept 15, 2021)
Dr. Cole said that vaccines seem to be triggering serious autoimmune issues, and described the situation as a “reverse HIV.”
“Cole explained that two types of cells are required for adequate immune system function: ‘Helper T-cells,’ also called ‘CD4 cells,’ and ‘killer T-cells,’ often known as ‘CD8 cells,'” the report said. “According to Cole, in patients with HIV, there is a massive suppression of ‘helper T-cells’ which cause immune system functions to plummet, and leave the patient susceptible to a variety of illnesses. Similarly, Cole describes, ‘post-vaccine, what we are seeing is a drop in your killer T-cells, in your CD8 cells,'” Those, he explained, “keep all other viruses in check.”

Original Air Dates: Sept 11 & 12, 2021 | Sen. Dennis Linthicum & Scott McEwen
This Week: 9/11 and an America Less Free
In memory of 9/11 we look back at the unity America showed in the days after. And even eight years on, groups like the 912 Project sprang up, formed by people who believed that how we behaved the day after the 9/11 attack was America’s defining moment. Coming together, accepting one another with one goal: stand together as Americans to protect America, her privileges, her people, and her freedoms.
But twenty years later we are faced with governmental actions that have become nightmares as the country is more divided than ever between the haves and have-nots. This time it’s not about money, but about our freedom to determine what is in, and isn’t in, our own body. A government fiercely picking apart the Constitutional freedoms we have relied on, and now telling us we must obey the whims of government to keep our careers. A government that wants to hold us down and force a syringe into our arm whether that person wants it or not.
It’s one thing to have a drug available, should one choose it. It’s quite another to mandate it and make it a condition for a normal life. Yellow Star, anyone?
At this point, does anyone actually believe that taking the vaccines, that it stops there?
But did you know there is no currently available FDA-approved vaccine? If you listen to the mainstream media, you probably think there is. Except there isn’t. And the “vaccine mandate” fail on two points of logic.
Dennis Linthicum: 9/11 Memories and Today’s Mandates
Our first guest, Senator Dennis Linthicum, takes us through where he was when he first learned of the attacks on the World Trade Center 20 years ago this weekend. And he notes that what we’re now facing today with our loss of rights and forced government mandates was nowhere on anybody’s horizon.
Be sure to get Dennis’s newsletter. It’s easy! Just send an email to dennis@electdennis.com
Dennis discusses some of the harsh realities of what Biden’s new vaccine mandate creates and how it compares to what Governor Kate has been pushing. We especially focus on the purposefully confusing language —“exceptions” rather than the legal term, “exemptions”—numbers that don’t add up, and lack of clarity within the mandates, that is twisting them into something that has given him and one other senator the necessary material they needed to request a grand jury investigation.
We will definitely be revisiting that grand jury with Sen. Linthicum—and soon.

Scott McEwen: Legal Side of Vaccine Mandates
So much for “effective.”
Then we turn to bestselling author and recovering attorney, Scott McEwen, who takes us through a deep dive on the legal principles of lawsuits that have been or will be filed against these vaccine mandates. Scott talks to us about the one to watch, which will most likely wind its way to the Supreme Court. A professor is suing a university over a vaccine mandate.
Why? Because he’s already had contracted covid and has natural immunity.
This and others will be bringing to light many scientific facts that the government would not want proven in a court of law. You know. Real science, not the science-as-political-tool currently in use.
And don’t miss Scott’s take on the government forcing our military to take the vaccine and what it might mean for national security.
9/11 and the Loss of Afghanistan
We also get his take on what the loss of Afghanistan means to those who served there and his memories of 9/11.
Just like what happened the day after 9/11, Americans are fighting to preserve our liberties and constitutional rights. And these are the opening shots.

Difference between exemption and exception (via Stack Exchange). The former is a legal recognition; the latter is a subjective choice. So why is the governor’s lawyers carefully avoiding the correct term?
The Republican Governors Association highlighted tweets from 19 governors in all who rejected Mr. Biden’s push — including South Dakota’s Kristi Noem, who told Mr. Biden: “See you in court.”
Back in 2014, Obama exchanged five Gitmo detainees for American military deserter Bowe Bergdahl. Now that the Taliban has retaken control of Afghanistan, four of these men are in senior positions in the Taliban.

Vaccines: They’re not Safe, They’re not Effective
80% of Covid-19 deaths in August [in the UK] were people who had been vaccinated according to Public Health data (The Expose, Sept 7, 2021)
“[Isn’t it] extremely strange that the UK is in the middle of a third wave in the middle of summer? Especially when you consider that in summer 2020 Covid-19 deaths flat-lined to zero even though a Covid-19 injection was not available.
[Data] shows that the majority of confirmed cases are now among the vaccinated population. In the most recent week from 28th August to 3rd September 2021 the report shows that there were 20,744 confirmed cases among the unvaccinated population, who are more likely to be tested for the simple reason they have not been vaccinated.
But it also shows that there were 5,508 confirmed cases among the partly vaccinated population, and 16,810 cases among the fully vaccinated population – two populations who are least likely to be tested due to be being vaccinated.
