Port: There are
no plans to discuss
Tongue Point at
next week’s meeting
WORLD IN BRIEF
Associated Press
Trump decries monument
removals, ‘history ripped apart’
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump bitingly decried
the rising movement to pull down monuments to Confederate
icons Thursday, declaring the nation is seeing “the history and cul-
ture of our great country being ripped apart.”
Trump’s new remarks came even as the White house tried to
manage his increasing isolation and the continued fallout from his
combative comments on last weekend’s racially charged violence
in Charlottesville, Virginia.
He also tore into fellow Republicans who have criticized his
statements on race and politics, fanning the controversy toward a
full-fledged national conflagration.
Pressured by advisers, the president had taken a step back
from the dispute on Monday, two days after he had enraged many
by declining to single out the white supremacists and neo-Na-
zis whose demonstration against the removal of a Robert E. Lee
statute had led to violence and the death of a counter-protester in
Charlottesville.
He returned to his combative stance on Wednesday — insisting
anew that “both sides” were to blame. And then in a burst of tweets
on Thursday he renewed his criticism of efforts to remove memo-
rials and tributes to the Civil War Confederacy.
“You can’t change history, but you can learn from it,” he
tweeted. “Robert E. Lee. Stonewall Jackson — who’s next, Wash-
ington, Jefferson? So foolish. ...
“Also the beauty that is being taken out of our cities, towns
and parks will be greatly missed and never able to be comparably
replaced!”
He wasn’t talking about beauty in earlier tweets, lashing at GOP
U.S. Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Jeff Flake of
Arizona.
He accused “publicity-seeking” Graham of falsely stating his
position on the demonstrators, called Flake “toxic” and praised a
Flake primary election opponent.
Trump aide: No military solution
in North Korea
BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — President Donald Trump’s chief
strategist Steve Bannon says there’s no military solution to the
threat posed by North Korea and its nuclear ambitions, despite the
president’s recent pledge to answer further aggression with “fire
and fury.”
In an interview with The American Prospect posted online
Wednesday, Bannon tells the liberal publication that the U.S. is los-
ing the economic race against China. He also talks about purging
his rivals from the Defense and State departments.
Bannon is also asked about the white supremacist movement,
whose march on Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend led to
deadly violence. He dismisses them as “losers,” ‘’a fringe element”
and “a collection of clowns.”
The White House did not immediately respond to requests for
comment.
“There’s no military solution (to North Korea’s nuclear threats),
forget it,” Bannon says. “Until somebody solves the part of the
equation that shows me that 10 million people in Seoul don’t die in
the first 30 minutes from conventional weapons, I don’t know what
you’re talking about, there’s no military solution here, they got us.”

the president’s insistence that there were “very fine people on both
sides” of a violent weekend clash between white supremacists and
counterdemonstrators.
The nuanced statements reflect the party establishment’s deli-
cate dance. Few top Republican officeholders defended the pres-
ident in the midst of an escalating political crisis. Yet they are
unwilling to declare all-out war against Trump and risk alienat-
ing his loyalists. And as the 2018 elections begin to take shape,
the debate over Trump’s words appears to be taking hold in GOP
primaries.
Trump’s overall approval rating may be dismal, but a small
group of die-hard supporters is expected to play an outsized role
in next year’s midterm elections when the Republican control of
Congress is at stake. Those supporters are praising the president’s
response to the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, which left one
dead and many more wounded.
“You got racism in both factions, on both sides,” former New
Hampshire GOP chair Jack Kimball said. “Trump has zero fault
here. None.”
Charlottesville woman’s family:
Fight injustice like she did
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Family members of the young
woman mowed down while protesting a white nationalist rally in
Charlottesville used her funeral as a rallying cry, telling mourn-
ers the best way to honor Heather Heyer is to continue her fight
against injustice.
“Let’s find that spark of conviction,” Heyer’s mother, Susan
Bro, told the hundreds who packed a downtown theater to remem-
ber Heyer on Wednesday. “Find what’s wrong and say to your-
selves, ‘What can I do to make a difference?’”
Heyer’s death on Saturday — and President Donald Trump’s
insistence that “both sides” bear responsibility for the violence —
continued to reverberate across the country, triggering fury among
many Americans and soul-searching about the state of race rela-
tions in the U.S. The uproar has accelerated efforts in many cities
to remove symbols of the Confederacy.
Heyer, 32, was eulogized as a woman with a powerful sense of
fairness. The mourners, many of them wearing purple, her favorite
color, applauded as her mother urged them to channel their anger
not into violence but into “righteous action.”
“They tried to kill my child to shut her up. Well, guess what?
You just magnified her,” said Bro, receiving a standing ovation
from mourners inside the Paramount Theater.
is the very definition of crony
capitalism,” Hunsinger wrote
in an ad scheduled to run
Friday in The Daily Asto-
rian. “The fact that was done
without public notice to deny
community input or scrutiny
is disgraceful. If a private
purchaser such as (Hyak)
Maritime is so interested in
fully operating Tongue Point,
then why did they never
ask for a public meeting, or
openly ask to discuss public
partnership options with the
Port?”
Port staff added the dis-
cussion item regarding
Tongue Point four days
before taking the Aug. 1
vote. Port Executive Direc-
tor Jim Knight said discus-
sions with Hyak and Wash-
ington Development Co. had
only recently finalized to the
point of bringing the item to
the Port Commission.
Hyak’s
CEO
and
co-owner Robert Dorn
said the company wants to
work with shipwright com-
pany and Port tenant WCT
Marine to develop a ship-
yard. The concept has
received endorsements from
WCT’s co-owners Willie
and Carol Toristoja and from
fellow shipwright Tim Hill.
One of the Port’s first ten-
ants at North Tongue Point,
Hill recently sold J&H Boat-
works to WCT Marine.
Hunsinger urged peo-
ple to attend the Port Com-
mission’s meeting Tuesday
and send letters and emails
to the agency’s staff. “At
a minimum, you should
demand the Port to pay for
an appraisal of Tongue Point
so everyone can honestly
know what the Port will be
giving away to private cor-
porate interests,” he wrote.
Spence said there are
no plans to discuss North
Tongue Point at next week’s
meeting, which will include
the interviews of seven
finalists for the Port Com-
mission seat left vacant by
Robert Mushen’s recent
resignation.
“There’s nothing to dis-
cuss,” Spence said. “The
Commission sent the let-
ter to Washington (Devel-
opment Co.) to be released,
and the 60-day timetable …
is working now for Hyak to
close their deal.”
A former U.S. Navy and
U.S. Coast Guard base,
North Tongue Point includes
two large former seaplane
hangars utilized for ship
work and seafood process-
ing, about 30 acres of paved
land, several piers front-
ing a channel of the Colum-
bia River and a derelict rail
spur belonging to Portland
& Western Railroad. Port
staff have said the agency
loses about $250,000 annu-
ally at North Tongue Point,
which has been the subject
of many development pro-
posals, none of which have
come to fruition.

that’s exactly what we’re doing.”
