The real story behind the collapse of the Boy Scouts of America. This one hits hard. I was a Boy Scout and it was the best thing. You learn a lot of self-reliance and survival tactics. Boys need to interact with other boys in a constructive way. The video doesn't call it out exactly but pedophiles really killed the Scouts. I wish that boys had the support, leadership and role models to guide them, especially today, more than ever.

Another person grifts money off of the City of Portland. DEI hire, doesn't work out, leaves with generous severance. And get this:
In October 2001, the City Council tweaked the program, which now allows up to a year’s salary and helps the city avoid any potential litigation. Reporting in recent years by The Oregonian/OregonLive has repeatedly shown that five- or six-figure severance packages are, with few exceptions, pro forma when a top official is forced out of City Hall.
“They are beneficial to both the city of Portland and employees,” Michael Jordan, then the city’s chief administrative officer, told the newsroom in 2022. “Such agreements ensure that we attract high-quality job candidates to lead complex, sensitive and political projects on behalf of the community.”
Oh yeah, we've been getting high-quality job candidates, haven't we?
