To those of you addressed, and to those of you witnessing:

For the first time, I am putting you all in the same room. Because this is all one act, repeated at every scale,
and it is time you saw it whole.

I am not here to attack any of you. I have asked for one thing, from the beginning, and I ask for it again now:
that each of you be accountable to your own behavior. That is all this has ever been about. Everything that has happened, happened because that one thing was refused.

In February and March of 2025, freshly arrived on the Oregon coast, I volunteered for the state parks. It was
the first time in my life I ever reached for community. It was immediately betrayed.

I will not walk you through what you already know, or can learn from the archive. I did my constitutional duty.
I documented the mistreatment, and I followed every lawful path available to me. It was met with more abuse, by multiple levels of state government that had a responsibility to act with integrity.

You took an act of documentation and tried to warp it into something it never was. And because I was never the
thing you tried to make me, you could not break me. When you understood that, three armed men were sent to my door -- behind a locked gate, where there is no physical address, in a national forest, on restricted federal land, on the anniversary of the day
you dismissed me.

Consider what that required. To reach me, the state had to enter federal ground it has no authority over. And
here is what should trouble every person reading this: a district ranger of the United States Forest Service -- a line officer of unimpeachable integrity with forty years of service, who commands that land -- asked who had been on her own ground, and was refused
the answer. She was implicated in something she did not ask for, did not sanction, and was not permitted to understand. That is what this behavior does. It does not stop at its target. It pulls in the honorable and makes them carry what they never chose.

This has been the same act at every scale -- the refusal to be accountable, and the willingness to let others bear the cost of that refusal.

So I will say plainly what I have always said. This does not stop until the agencies are accountable to their
own behavior. Not accountable to me. To themselves. That is the only thing I have ever asked of anyone.

Tomorrow, this accountability project enters its next stage.

The local actors will be named only by role in the archive. Their names are coming down. This went well beyond
them, and their part must be recorded as what it was: small, inside something grown to unspeakable heights by every level above them that touched it.

And I file with the Attorney General, against Oregon State Police, and soon against the Department of Administrative
Services. Not to punish. To compel the accountability that has been refused at every turn.

You have stayed silent in the face of a documented abuse of power that is ongoing. I understand the silence.
To speak would be to be accountable, and that is the one thing this behavior exists to avoid.

But silence, at this point, is its own answer.
