Today is the 16th anniversary of a young boy’s—Kyron Horman—disappearance from a school in Portland Oregon. No trace has ever been found. The story below written last year.
From: thatoregonlife.com:
June 4, 2025, marks the 15th anniversary of the disappearance of Kyron Horman, a 7-year-old boy who vanished from Skyline Elementary School in Northwest Portland, Oregon. Despite extensive investigations, no trace of Kyron has ever been found. Now, Multnomah County’s newly elected District Attorney, Nathan Vasquez, has announced a renewed investigation into the case, giving new hope to Kyron’s family, friends, and everyone worldwide whose hearts and souls his sweet smile has touched.
A Renewed Investigation
District Attorney Vasquez issued a statement to the media, reaffirming his office’s dedication to the case:
“As we approach the 15th anniversary of Kyron Horman’s disappearance, I want to reaffirm my continued commitment to this case. When I met with Desiree Young as the incoming District Attorney, I assured her that open communication would be a priority. My office has begun a thorough and methodical review of the case with fresh eyes.
This is a painstaking process involving tens of thousands of pages of reports, records, and other evidence. We have a dedicated team assigned to the case and I am now being regularly briefed on its current status and what steps may follow.
At this time, I will not comment on the substance of the investigation. Our focus remains where it has always belonged—on Kyron and his family. We hope to share further updates this fall.”
The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office continues to consider the case active, working alongside the District Attorney’s Office and the FBI to pursue investigative leads. (KVAL)
The Day Kyron Disappeared
On the morning of June 4, 2010, Kyron attended a science fair at Skyline Elementary School with his stepmother, Terri Horman. She reported last seeing him walking toward his classroom at approximately 8:45 a.m. However, Kyron was marked absent that day, and his family realized he was missing when he did not return home on the school bus.
The initial search for Kyron became the largest in Oregon’s history, involving over 1,300 volunteers and multiple law enforcement agencies. Despite these efforts, no substantial evidence was found as to Kyron’s whereabouts or what truly happened to him that day.
Focus on Terri Horman
Terri Horman, now known as Terri Vazquez, has remained a person of interest in the case. She has denied any involvement in Kyron’s disappearance and has not been charged, despite allegedly failing two polygraph tests and refusing a third. Kyron’s mother, Desiree Young, has publicly expressed her belief that Terri knows more than she has disclosed.
In 2012, Young filed a civil lawsuit against Terri, alleging her involvement in Kyron’s disappearance. The lawsuit was later dropped to avoid interfering with the ongoing investigation.
Recently, Young sat down for an extensive interview with United Search Corps, an organization dedicated to addressing the heartbreaking crisis of missing and murdered individuals.
Ongoing Investigation and Community Involvement
The renewed investigation under District Attorney Vasquez includes a dedicated team reviewing extensive case files and evidence. Advancements in digital forensics and geospatial technology are being utilized to aid the investigation.
A $50,000 reward remains available for information leading to the resolution of Kyron’s disappearance. Tips can be submitted to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office at 503-988-0560 or via email at tips@mcso.us.
Desiree Young continues to advocate for her son, participating in public events and speaking engagements to keep attention on the case. Her efforts have inspired community support and ongoing interest in finding answers.
Looking Ahead
As the 15th anniversary approaches, the renewed investigation offers a glimmer of hope for Kyron’s family and the community. District Attorney Vasquez’s commitment to a thorough review signifies a continued pursuit of justice in one of Oregon’s most perplexing missing person cases.
The community remains vigilant, and authorities encourage anyone with information to come forward, emphasizing that even the smallest detail could be crucial in solving the case.

Morning All! we’ve got sunshine and 50* (!!) this morning. hubby says warmer for a few days, then back to cooler. we’ll see.
looking at stories on the treehouse–apparently the karmelo anthony jury has been seated. he admitted he did it, but the defense is going to use the “stand your ground” defense. he was in another team’s tent and refused to leave. i hardly think the stand your ground applies. that was basically the other team’s home (their ground) and anthony was a potential burglar.

Morning, Pat. A bit warmer this morning @ 69 but cloudy skies and more rain & thunderstorms coming my way. Wheezer was sitting on the footstool on my patio this morning- this is one weird cat! No comfort at all on the stool – I can’t fathom why he would perch there. In any case, I put out some tuna and he ate about half of it, then went and curled up on the other chair, next to the front wall of the patio. He laid there for about 5 minutes and when I looked again, he was gone. Very strange!
IMO, that little boy has probably been dead for the last 15 years and the step-Mom probably did it. TBH, I think it’s cruel to give his birth Mom false hopes.

so the narrative is being set in the Anthony trial…an all white jury…the prosecution struck the 3 black jurists. BUT they’re not giving the responses some of the potential jurors gave answering if they could convict Anthony–who, btw, admitted to killing Metcalf.
(bold below is mine)
FTA
Some jurors said they did not believe they could be impartial, saying they “cannot put bias and prejudice aside, cannot unsee or unhear what they’ve heard about this case, cannot give a life sentence, cannot send a young man to prison, and cannot overlook if the defendant chooses not to testify,” reports WFAA.
One potential juror was heard to say “I don’t know if I feel right putting a brother in jail,” while still another cited their religious beliefs as a reason they could not convict toward capital punishment. Another said “He looks like a child. I can’t send him to jail. He could learn from his mistake.”
Metcalf was killed by Anthony in April 2025. He was only 18-years-old when Anthony pulled a knife on him, surrounded by witnesses, beneath the bleachers at high school track meet.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday that moves 8,000 federal workers in policy roles into a new class that makes it easier for the administration to fire them for misconduct and poor performance.
The order moves the employees from a protected status into an at-will position, including high-ranking officials at the top of the government’s civil service, known as GS-15 employees.
The White House characterized the order as “fixing a broken system” that streamlines replacing federal employees who are not aligned with the administration.
“Personnel rules make removing federal employees for any reason exceedingly difficult,” the White House said in a fact sheet. “Consequently, employees with significant policy-making responsibilities can stay in their jobs for years even if they perform poorly, engage in misconduct, or are unwilling to advance presidential policy across administrations.”
The order impacts agency positions such as directors, deputy directors, chiefs of staff, senior advisors and policy analysts, employees with significant involvement in drafting regulations and guidance, public affairs and legislative affairs leaders, and employees who help determine who receives federal grants.
The move comes after Trump offered buyout options for federal workers last year to encourage them to leave voluntarily.
The White House said that under the Trump administration, the federal workforce is now at its lowest level since 1966.

Wow!
Today I exposed how Marjorie Traitor Greene @mtgreenee appears to be involved in a promotion of the app Sway while she’s abroad in Costa Rica.
I found a video of Ali Partovi @apartovi, the Iranian progressive Democrat founder of the app calling for ICE to be abolished!
After I exposed her promotion of the app, MTG defended him on X and called me a “racist” for asking why she was promoting an app created by an Iranian radical leftist.
In the video, the founder said he allows anti-ICE and ICE tracking operatives to use his app to “fight back”.
He also admits to once being deported.
Why is MTG promoting an app founded by an Iranian who wants to Abolish ICE?
The app is meant to influence our elections.
Why is someone who was deported trying to influence our elections with his app?
MTG has turned into a complete anti-America, Islamist loving traitor

Just The News: “President Donald Trump told a White House gathering Wednesday evening that he will nominate Todd Blanche to permanently serve as attorney general after a brief stint as the country’s acting chief prosecutor.
“Tomorrow I’m instructing Dan [Scavino] and everybody else that’s involved in that very complicated process, which is gonna go, I think, very quickly, that we are going to make him permanent Attorney General,” Trump told a Rose Garden Club Dinner.
Scavino, the deputy chief of staff, posted a video of Trump’s comments on his social media account.
Blanche, who was confirmed last year as deputy attorney general, was named on an acting basis to replace Pam Bondi when she stepped down as attorney general this spring. Before that, he served as a private lawyer on Trump‘s defense team during the various lawfare attacks on the president in civil and criminal courts.”

EXCERPT: “Former Vice President Mike Pence has emerged as one of the most vocal opponents of the Justice Department’s now abandoned Anti-Weaponization Fund, an initiative intended to compensate individuals harmed by politically motivated government misconduct. Pence and other critics characterized the fund as an improper use of taxpayer money, claiming it was a “bad idea from the start.” Yet Pence’s opposition is profoundly ironic, given that few public figures played a larger role in setting the chain of events into motion that made such a fund necessary in the first place. Pence now condemns as “deeply offensive” a remedy designed to address the very culture of institutional weaponization that he helped create during his time in the White House.
Contrary to much of the media coverage surrounding this controversy, the Anti-Weaponization Fund was not an extraordinary new mechanism conjured out of thin air. The payments were to be made through the Judgment Fund, a permanent, indefinite appropriation established by Congress to satisfy judgments and settlements against the federal government. In this instance, the settlement stems from litigation brought by President Trump after his confidential tax information was unlawfully disclosed. Whatever one’s view on the politics of the settlement, the underlying mechanism is a standard feature of federal law.
The larger question is not whether the government possesses the authority to compensate victims of official misconduct; it clearly does. The important question is why so many Americans now find themselves in need of such compensation in the first place.
The answer leads directly back to the firing of General Michael Flynn and, specifically, to Mike Pence’s role in that decision.
For years, the public understanding of Flynn’s removal rested on the assumption that the Trump administration had simply accepted the FBI’s claim that Flynn lied about his conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. The transcripts of those conversations, finally released in 2020, showed otherwise. Flynn had not lied…..”

“All these nations were afraid of Iran and they are not anymore… But they had reason to be afraid. We have knocked the hell out of them like no other nation could and they still have remnants left.”
michaelgwaltz reacts: “This is one of the reasons why Trump did what he did now. Imagine if the President had kicked the can like so many of his predecessors had. Iran had tens, if not hundreds of thousands, of drones and missiles. That’s the shield behind which they would develop a full blown nuclear program.”

“When Dirty Dancing hit theaters on August 21, 1987, expectations were modest. In fact, early test screenings had been lacklustre – one rough-cut screening even found that a large chunk of the audience didn’t realise the film included a (then-daring) abortion subplot. The film’s distributor was prepared to play it for a single weekend and then shuffle it off to home video. But, as the now-famous phrase goes, nobody was going to put Baby in a corner.
Against all odds, Dirty Dancing became a sensation and one of the highest-grossing films of 1987. Produced on a shoestring budget of about $4.5 million, it went on to earn around $214 million worldwide – a staggering success that launched its stars Swayze and Grey into bona fide 80s stardom.
The film’s appeal was immediate and enduring. Set in the summer of 1963 at a Catskills holiday resort, Dirty Dancing follows Baby Houseman’s journey from naive teenager to confident young woman as she falls in love with Johnny, the resort’s working-class dance instructor. The chemistry between Grey and Swayze was palpable (even if the two actors had their behind-the-scenes tensions during filming) and resulted in some of cinema’s most iconic scenes – from the flirtatious rehearsal where Baby can’t stop giggling, to that triumphant final leap into Johnny’s arms during the climactic dance. Dirty Dancing earned positive reviews, with particular praise for the engaging performances and spirited choreography.

Just The News: “A Senate vote to include language blocking the Department of Justice’s “anti-weaponization fund” in a reconciliation bill funding immigration enforcement failed on Thursday, despite Republican defections to support it.
The $1.776 billion fund was part of a settlement to end Trump’s lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax returns by contractor Charles Littlejohn, who pleaded guilty. It drew bipartisan pushback and faced legal scrutiny, leading acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to announce the agency would not move forward with it. But some lawmakers sought to include language codifying that decision in the upcoming bill.
Led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats and a handful of Republicans voted for an amendment to include the language, though it failed 49-50, The Hill reported. GOP Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, and Jon Husted of Ohio joined Democrats in backing the amendment.
The fund drew scrutiny from lawmakers over concerns it could be used to reward Trump allies. Some Trump critics within the GOP, including Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., previously suggested that they may not support the final bill if it did not include the language banning the fund. Tillis, ultimately, did not support Schumer’s amendment.
The reconciliation package provides additional funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol. The GOP was unable to secure that funding through the normal appropriations process due to opposition from Democrats that led to the record-breaking shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security.
Reconciliation, however, is a process that permits lawmakers to pass budgetary items without being subject to the 60-vote filibuster threshold in the Senate, meaning Republicans could advance the funding without cross-party support.”

Just The News: “Six Republicans joined with Democrats on Thursday to support a measure that would block the construction of President Donald Trump’s planned White House ballroom.
The measure needed 60 votes to pass and came as part of a string of amendment votes ahead of the main vote on a reconciliation bill to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol.
The final vote was 52-47 in favor, with GOP Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, John Husted of Ohio, Jerry Moran of Kansas, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, and Thom Tillis of North Carolina voting to block construction, The Hill reported.
While Collins and Murkowski have typically been critical of the president and willing to vote against his priorities, Tillis has become more independent due to his imminent retirement. Husted, for his part, is facing a close bid for a full term in November.
The ballroom is a passion project for Trump, though it has also become a focal point for Democratic criticism of the administration. Several legal challenges have threatened the project, which Trump insists is necessary due to the absence of a government space suited to formal state events.”

“Uphold Constitutional Order”
Newsletter | June 4, 2026
“America is a nation of laws that define our order – our constitutional order. When laws are broken, there must be consequences, or we have lost the essence of our greatness and the foundations of our republic.
The Founders were brilliant men, scholars, lawyers, merchants, farmers, but they understood the principles that would undergird the country they were creating in very basic terms: God made man in His image, which means that all men are created equal. And that means all must answer to the same law — not the whims of a tyrant, but laws derived from our God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Thus, when laws are broken and no one is held accountable, it threatens the rights of all Americans. When political officials responsible for upholding our laws encourage lawlessness, it jeopardizes our entire country.
For the last two weeks Antifa activists have laid siege to Delaney Hall, an ICE detention facility in Newark, NJ. There, masked, keffiyeh-clad radicals have routinely pounded on drums while hurling vile insults at immigration agents, urging them to “grab your guns and kill yourselves,” and chanting “every cop, every fed, shoot yourself in the head.”
The Antifa mob has tried to barricade the facility with traffic cones and cement blocks as officers struggled to clear the road. They’ve also assaulted immigration agents, allegedly biting, kicking and punching federal agents. And one anti-ICE protester publicly threatened to kill an immigration officer and his family. “I’ll kill your whole f–king family. Your whole f–king family is dead. Your children, your wife, all dead,” the demented activist shouted. “I have your face, motherf–ker. You’re dead. Dead.”
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche vows that the protestor will be caught and charged. “That’s a federal crime. Not only threatening the ICE officer — but think about how disgusting this individual is by threatening his wife and his children with death.”
We certainly hope the criminal is caught but local authorities have failed to help federal agents uphold the law. According to one report, Newark police officials allege that Gov. Mikie Sherrill and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka have blocked the force from helping ICE officials, even as federal agents begged for backup.
Why are political officials allowing violent radicals to threaten and attack ICE agents? Because they disagree with the government’s deportation policy. That is, they prioritize partisan politics over the law of the land. Despite the anti-ICE rhetoric painting federal agents and the government they serve as racist, law enforcement officials aren’t targeting every immigrant they can round up — rather, they’re going after the people who crossed our borders illegally. That’s not a political issue but a legal one and if our officials don’t get it right, both sides, right and left, will pay a steep price.
When the thirteen colonies declared their independence from the Crown nearly 250 years ago and fought a war that lasted eight years, it was to fight for the freedom that can only be maintained by respect for the rule of law. Freedom and law go hand-in-hand. Without obedience to and respect for the law, we will lose our freedom not only as individuals, but as a nation. What makes America distinctive, indeed exceptional, is that under one law, we are all accountable to We The People.”
