An anonymous complaint received by the office of Gov. Tina Kotek in January, alleges the Governor-appointed chair of the Alcohol and Drug Policy Commission sent lewd, discriminatory, offensive text
I spent 45 minutes googling every listed member of the Commission.
There is a lawyer and circuit court judge, but absolutely nobody from Oregon’s law enforcement community.
Many of the Commission members were major advocates of Measure 110, and it would be highly unlikely there would be any of the kind of informed debate one would hope for in a state where the fatal overdose rate topped 1000% in a single year.
More example of how undemocratic the Democratic administration of Czarina Kotek is.
Of course, she could always appoint her wife to the Commission for her “lived experience.”
It should have less respect. The Biden admin is, IMO, dishonest, rudderless and misguided ideologically. Oregon's state government is all those things plus farcically incompetent at seemingly everything it touches.
At best seems like possibly criminal attempt to smear and damage members of the Governor's administration at worst crude blackmail attempt certainly seems like it would warrant a serious investigation. Or why not
Yeah, a private employer who became aware that one of his employees was sending texts like this would be in real trouble if he didn't take steps to prevent it or similar from happening again. Vezina isn't really Kotek's employee, but her office has chosen to keep him in place knowing he did this.
Should this get legs and hit close to someone powerful’s home, it’s entirely possible that a crisis manager will be engaged behind the scenes to bury the political garbage.
It would be in keeping with the zeitgeist for the naked man to plead addiction or mental illness (preferably both) and disappear into extended rehab.
Once he’s certified as being in recovery and told his story of trauma and abuse (and donned his clothes), he’ll walk into a gig as a peer counselor and land on a short list for one of Kotek’s normalizing deviance committees.
It is public record that 4th dimension while run by Tony has been sued for discrimination of an LGBTQ++ employee, whistle blowing and hiring vehemently homophobic employees, in addition to that he also employed AND promoted a man who was 27 at the time who had sex with multiple teenage clients one of which was 14.
This is and has always been a bad person disguising himself as God's gift to recovery.
Tony sent me those text messages, and I have the original screenshots, I have the unedited version. Any claims that he “didn't propose what was alleged” blardy blar are simply not truthful. These texts were also shared with Rob Nosse, who no concerns about being manipulated or turned out, but his response was simply, "I know Tony." I still have the text from Rob Nosse confirming this interaction too
I have a lot more information about Tony and his character and would live to get it out to someone. It is public record that 4D has been sued when Tony was the Executive director for discrimination against LGBTQ++ folks, whistle blowing, being abusive to his employees etc.
I would love to answer more questions and give more of a background to Tony's true nature. Please reply to this if you or Jeff are interested.
I was asked to write about this situation over a year ago, and I have seen numerous photos and other things like emails. I had to decline. I felt the story was too problematic, and I simply couldn’t figure out how to frame it. I rarely turn down a story, but this one was too hot. I was really left with no other choice. I’m glad to see it’s getting out there nonetheless…

I was asked to write about this. I’ve seen all those sick nudie photos attached to the emails. I had to decline. It was too hot a story and I didn’t know how to frame it. I’m glad this story is getting out. It’s important.

What a stinking mess the dems have made in Salem. At this rate the Oregon governorship will have less respect than the Biden administration.

The real story is nauseating. It’s about abuse of power and sexual exploitation…

You’re about right… LOL…
A hissy-fit--a term that will get me into trouble with the multiple-letters. crowd.
there are still a few letters left, I'm sure they will find (or manufacture) some to fit.

AI to the administration's rescue? or otherwise? only AI could keep track of all the new genders extant.
