GOOD MORNING, BLOGTOWN! I know you want it, the thing that makes me, what the guys go crazy for. They lose their minds, the way I wind, I think its time. LET'S GO TO PRESS.

Yesterday a man covered in blood entered an Estacada grocery store, and stabbed an employee. Oh, and almost forgot this part: He was reportedly holding a human head.

Meanwhile in Linn County, a Mother's Day barbecue went off the rails when a man fired a rifle at his brother.

In some better news, a record number of Oregoniansare running for public office—most probably in reaction to the disastrous President Trump.

Russia's Vladimir Putin may have not gotten the puppet he wanted in Donald Trump, but the chaos he's sown in Washington is a pretty sweet consolation prize.

Are Senate Republicans beginning to pull away from Trump? Signs point to yes.

In fact, Republican Lindsay Graham (SC) is one of the senators demanding Trump release any of those secret "tapes" he was tweeting about... that is, unless he's lying AGAIN.

President Trump will be going on a world diplomacy tour this week, and... well, it probably won't end well, will it?

Our newest Miss USA got dragged up and down Twitter for her assertion that health insurance is a privilege rather than a right.

The great actor Powers Boothe, famed for his roles in Deadwood, Sin City, and for playing Mike Hammer, has died at the age of 68.

Now let's peruse the WEATHER: A few showers with a high of 60 today, but a glorious end of the week lies ahead.

Finally, Melissa McCarthy returned to SNL this weekend to bless the world with more Sean Spicer goodness (and a special make-out session as well)!
