The Tenpenny Files:Portland’s Doom Loop-The Experiment That Broke a State-And Could Break Yours Next

Portland was once the postcard of the Pacific Northwest – now it stands as the clearest warning America has. In this powerful conversation, award-winning journalist Dennis Kneale exposes how political extremism, collapsing public safety, mass business flight, and unchecked one-party rule pushed Oregon into a full-blown doom loop.

Dennis has been there. He’s walked the streets, interviewed recovering addicts, talked to business owners punished for speaking out, and dissected the data politicians refuse to acknowledge. What he uncovered is staggering:

-The second-highest income-tax rate in America – while a billion dollars in income leaves the state every year
-A $700M homelessness budget fueling an industrial complex with no improvement on the streets
-Police shortages so severe that emergency response times exceed 20 minutes
-Businesses dying, downtown hollowing out, and young talent fleeing
-Leaders insisting “everything is fine” as Oregon falls deeper into crisis

His upcoming book Ore-Goners is more than a diagnosis – it is a blueprint for how urban collapse begins and a warning for every other American city already walking the same path.

This conversation will wake you up. And it may change how you see your own community.
