With even Democrats like
Joe Biden
now distancing themselves from the defund-the-police motion, it’s time to place this far-left lunacy to relaxation. Nowhere in America is there a clearer alternative for change than in Oregon, the place Republican
Christine Drazan
is working for governor to maneuver her state in a brand new pro-law-enforcement course. I’ll be campaigning for her there this week.
Oregon was one of many facilities of this harmful motion. In 2020, when riots broke out in Portland, metropolis and state leaders appeared extra involved with blaming police than restoring order and holding violent rioters accountable. As a substitute of backing up regulation enforcement, Portland politicians handed reckless measures to defund it. The outcomes have been predictable and tragic: Homicides surged 207% in lower than two years.
Evaluate this with Maryland. In 2015 I had been governor solely 89 days when the worst violence in 47 years erupted in Baltimore. When then-Mayor
Stephanie Rawlings-Blake
stated she needed to present the rioters “area” to “destroy,” I made clear that method was unacceptable.
I declared a state of emergency and despatched 1,000 extra law enforcement officials and 4,000 Nationwide Guardsmen to town. We allowed peaceable protests however instantly stopped the violence. I walked the streets of Baltimore to decrease the temperature and hearken to issues.
In the summertime of 2020, the success of our peace-through-strength method was clear. Whereas cities throughout America had been going through unrest, Baltimore was peaceable, and the neighborhood labored with the police to maintain town protected. Whereas Portland was defunding police, I enacted a Re-Fund the Police Initiative, which invested $500 million in regulation enforcement.
A breakdown of regulation and order solely harms probably the most susceptible amongst us. Whereas homelessness is uncontrolled in Oregon, we’ve lowered it in Maryland by 24%.
The individuals of my deep-blue state, together with Democrats and independents, have stood with us as a result of they knew I might by no means put politics or ideology earlier than public security. That’s precisely the commonsense method that Christine Drazan would carry, and that’s why I imagine she will be able to win and achieve success in a blue state.
She would absolutely fund state police and enhance the variety of officers throughout Oregon, work to ensure violent criminals are held accountable, and crack down on the provision of lethal medication comparable to fentanyl and the gangs that carry them into communities.
Few concepts have been extra harmful to the U.S. lately than “defund the police.” With violent crime rising throughout America and police recruitment, retention and morale at all-time lows, it’s necessary that we start reversing the injury by electing pro-law-enforcement leaders. Different Republican gubernatorial candidates, like
Joe Lombardo
in Nevada and
Mark Ronchetti
in New Mexico, are working nice campaigns targeted on supporting regulation enforcement, however a vote for change in Oregon can be heard all throughout the nation.
I urge Oregonians to set their state and our nation on a brand new course by electing Christine Drazan.
Mr. Hogan, a Republican, is governor of Maryland.

This embedded content is not available in your region.
Was Dan Lanning out of line to fake a field goal rather than put the ball in Dillon Gabriel’s hands? Oregon keeps their perfect season alive on the road at Wisconsin but not without some controversy. Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman break down that game plus, in the SEC, Carson Beck finally looks like the QB we thought he’d be as the Georgia Bulldogs take down the Tennessee Volunteers. Elsewhere, LSU goes down HARD to the Florida Gators whose bowl chances are looking up after the win.
Caroline, Fitz & Adam share their biggest takeaways from the weekend including why Billy Napier and Florida will be the talk of the town in the offseason and which two players have pulled ahead in the Heisman race.

A hydrologic outlook was issued on Saturday at 3:52 p.m. for Clatsop County Coast, Tillamook County Coast, Central Coast of Oregon, North Oregon Coast Range Lowlands, Central Oregon Coast Range Lowlands, North Oregon Coast Range, Central Oregon Coast Range, Lower Columbia River, Tualatin Valley, West Hills and Chehalem Mountains, Inner Portland Metro, East Portland Metro, Outer Southeast Portland Metro, West Central Willamette Valley, East Central Willamette Valley, Benton County Lowlands, Linn County Lowlands, Lane County Lowlands, West Columbia River Gorge of Oregon above 500 ft, West Columbia River Gorge I-84 Corridor, Upper Hood River Valley, Central Columbia River Gorge I-84 Corridor, Clackamas County Cascade Foothills, Cascade Foothills of Marion and Linn counties and Lane County Cascade Foothills.
“It is shaping up to be a wet week ahead. Of particular concern is the potential for heavy rain Tuesday night through Friday morning, which could result in some flooding for area creeks and rivers. Current projections of the most likely amounts for storm total precipitation range from 5 to 8 inches for the Coast, Coast Range, and Cascades, with 2.5 to 4 inches for inland valley locations, including Portland, Salem, and Eugene. Upper end projections, with about a 10 percent chance of occurring, range from 6 to 11 inches for the Coast, Coast Range, and Cascades, with 5 to 7 inches for inland valleys. Snowmelt in the Cascades from 2000 to 4000 feet elevation could add runoff, although the main cause for flooding would be the heavy rain. Rivers will rise starting Wednesday. Small streams and fast-responding rivers could see flooding as early as Wednesday night or Thursday, with slow-responding rivers potentially flooding by this weekend. Heavy rainfall will also cause water ponding in low-lying areas and other areas of poor drainage,” says the National Weather Service.
Dillon Gabriel has led the Oregon Ducks to a 10-0 overall record and the No. 1 ranking the for the past four weeks. The Hawaiian native has thrown for 22 touchdowns (tied for No. 6 in the nation) on 2,848 passing yards (No. 8 in the nation) this season so far. His 74.1 completion rate (No. 1 in the nation) and 168.38 passer rating (No. 6 in the nation) are the stats that have stood out the most from his remarkable campaign.
Because of his efforts, he’s being considered as a candidate for the Heisman Trophy plus was announced as a semifinalist for the Maxwell Award, the Walter Camp Player of the Year award, and the Davey O’Brien National Quarterback Award. Adding to this long list of honors, he’s now being considered for the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award which is given to the top senior at the quarterback position in college football.
Joining Gabriel as the finalists for this award are Ole Miss Running Rebels Jaxson Dart, Colorado Buffaloes Shedeur Sanders, Miami Hurricanes Cam Ward, and Indiana Hoosiers Kurtis Rourke. Gabriel isn’t the first Duck to be considered for the Johnny Unitas Award. Only Marcus Mariota in 2014 has actually won it, but Joey Harrington (2001), Kellen Clemons (2005), Dennis Dixon (2007), Justin Herbert (2019, Anthony Brown Jr. (2021), and Bo Nix (2022 and 2023) were all named finalists.
Gabriel recently broke the NCAA’s all-time record for total touchdowns with 180 total throughout his career spent with the UCF Golden Knights, Oklahoma Sooners, and Oregon. He passed Houston’s Case Keenum previous record of 178 total last week during the 39-18 victory over the Maryland Terrapins.
Gabriel is on the precipice of two major NCAA awards. Gabriel is just three starts by a quarterback away from breaking former Duck Nix’s all-time record at 61 which he should have full control of at some point this season. Gabriel will now set his sights on Keenum’s all-time record for touchdown passes of 155, entering Saturday with 147 in his career.
“You can’t go through that game without recognizing, you know, having the all-time NCAA touchdown record for Dillon Gabriel and what he was able to accomplish there. He’ll be the first one to tell you he doesn’t care, but he should, because that’s a really special moment for him.”
– Coach Dan Lanning after Maryland-Oregon
Coach Dan Lanning and his quarterback have bigger things to worry about than individual awards and records. Oregon will play at Wisconsin this Saturday, Nov. 16 at 4:30 p.m. PT.
