Oregon Health Authority recently produced records showing the termination occurred last September, the day after State Rep. Ed Diehl demanded action based on Oregon Roundup reporting
Thank you for the reporting. And it's so infuriating. On a personal note, I have worked my ass off, made a lot of coin, and paid way more than I think I should have in taxes to this fucking City. For 30 years. And after getting laid off in 2024, I got six months of unemployment and was then told to fuck off, there's no other help here, why can't you get a job you fucking loser? In other words, thank you for your taxpayer dollars to help everybody else, but when you, contributing member of society for 30 years, needs help, fuck off.
At 15 months without being able to get a job, and this is after over 100 applications and cover letters and Linkedin conversations and $11,000 in career coaching payments ... I actually was approved for Oregon Health Plan. And the amount of paperwork that I had to supply to prove that I had a bona fide need was shocking. And yet these corrupt motherfuckers who come into our country illegally, and yes I just said that and I'm not going to apologize for it, are given the free-ride keys on the back of what hard working people like me paid into the system for literally decades, and we cannot get it back out in help when we need a little hand up. Nooe. That help, paid for by people like me is going to illegal aliens, drug addicts, and other assholes who have not contributed to society, many who aren't even from here, and who expect help.
And they get it . Before I even do
I'm not even a Republican. I believe in a safety net. But this is going way too far. I am leaving the city so that it cannot get any more of my money. The city can go fuck itself. It gets no more of my money.
Well done Jeff! Solid journalism once again shows its power and importance. Too bad it took your reporting to get OHA to pay attention, though. I wonder how many other bad grants they've given out?
of passing interest, in our local paper (pretty left wing for rural Oregon (but are we really rural anymore)) regarding HB 4177, that our fearless legislature just sent to Ms Kotek for signing, that according to a group of Oregon Newspapers (who knew???) might abrogate all the citizen rights regarding open meetings, by making it OK for the public officials to meet out of session and make all sorts of agreements outside public scrutiny. Now I don't usually panic about the worries of the "public" press, BUT when their whole organization wants Ms Kotek to veto a bill passed by Oregon's legislature regarding the publics' right to monitor open meetings and the discussions thereof, I get a little queasy thinking about the governing of this State.
@Oregon Roundup Thank you for this report. Could you do a dive into Thomboy? They are a system of Payee , take over your finances, and they Decide what is important. They did all this shady stuff with the help of NW Seniors and Adults w/Disabilities to my MiL. It was Horrific , what the did. And at her Lifes end they kept whatever money was left. They charge $50.00 per month. We couldnt legally even get gas $ to go take care of her, every single day for 4 years, 2 times each Day. Everyone reading this needs to AVOID THOMBOY LIKE THE PLAGUE. VERY SHADY BIZ
Is there anyone NOT ripping us off? Oh man we are suckers. Thank you to the real Diehl for uncovering this fraud, it's very serious. Remember our Libraries assist people getting grants, funding etc... and is a good place to look at who's getting the money. :)
Thank you very much for this update. Gives me another good reason to vote for Ed Diehl.

So you and Kerry Eggers are the only true journalists we have in Oregon now it seems.
Jeff Eager for Oregon Congress!

What a coincidence, right?
WELL DONE, SIR!
Top Notch work Jeff! Thanks for being in the game.
“ quietly terminated PUTATIVE* substance abuse treatment provider and alleged gangster-housing Uplifting Journey LLC …”
*Putative. Manifests as grift, rampant in this state, particularly in this domain.
Don’t look too closely. Oops. You did.
