At WokeSpy, Black Drag Queens Honored on Oregon House Floor as Legislative Priorities Take Back Seat

The Oregon House of Representatives hosted an embarrassing spectacle by exhibiting a drag queen performance on the legislative floor. The House was commemorating the passing of the “Black drag” resolution, which honors Balck drag queens, while legislative priorities take a back burner. Many Democrats were very impressed by the depraved spectacle, which lowers the dignity of the House, a place intended to make relevant laws rather than holding ridiculous sideshows.

“Whereas Oregon has a rich tradition of building, supporting and celebrating LGBTQ communities, and the Black drag community in Portland is among the most vibrant and storied in the entire United States,” the depraved bill stated.

“That we … recognize and honor Oregon’s rich history of Black drag, and we congratulate all those whose spirited contributions have made Oregon’s Black drag community one of the most vibrant and vital in the nation.”

The drag queens who performed during the event, Isaiah Esquire and Aqua Flora Portland, were reportedly invited by State Rep. Travis Nelson. The resolution passed after a 34 – 9 vote, highlighting the depravity of the state House of Representatives.

 WokeSpy, Blue State Loses Big as Multibillion Dollar Coffee Giant Flees to Arizona

Dutch Bros Coffee has officially announced the relocation of its corporate headquarters from Grants Pass, Oregon, to Phoenix, Arizona. The decision follows a phased transition that began last year and now results in a complete shift of the company’s executive operations out of the Pacific Northwest.

The company confirmed the move this week, stating that consolidating operations in Phoenix would provide both functional and cultural benefits as Dutch Bros prepares for its next phase of national growth. “Over the past several months, we have seen the functional and cultural advantages of having more of our field support roles working together in one place,” the company said in a statement to the Portland Business Journal.

“To support the next phase of Dutch Bros’ growth, we’re relocating additional roles to our new Phoenix office and making strategic changes to the structure of several teams. Bringing more people together will allow us to better serve our customers and crews across the country. With these changes, the Phoenix office will become our official HQ.”

Dutch Bros is leaving Oregon because our state has become a hostile environment for businesses. This is happening more and more, and no one in Salem seems to care. If we don’t turn this around soon, Dutch Bros won’t be the only homegrown business that leaves. #ORPol #ORLeg pic.twitter.com/ML1JiFZhq5
