Whoever is running PBOT is an idiot. And so is the one in charge of the PPB (cough cough mayor).

A city manager can't come fast enough. They'd better get the sweeps going hard and fast.

In other words, he wants to become a dictator? No details in the article but it doesn't sound good.

Makes me wonder if the police chief resignation is related...

PPB is basically a white nationalist network operating with state funding. To the point where they were looking to bring back retirees because they couldn't find officers not associated with white nationalists. Could be.

From what I understand, the big drag on hiring is pot use. You can't access federal law enforcement systems as "an illicit drug user" and as far as the feds are concerned, it doesn't matter that it's legal in Oregon.
