Oregon House Republicans, Sen. Knopp take issue with state GOP’s ‘false flag’ claims SALEM, Ore. (KTVZ) -- The Oregon House Republican Caucus released the following statement Wednesday in response to the recently adopted Oregon Republican Party resolution labeling the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill takeover in Washington, D.C. a “false flag” operation. “Elected House Republicans are focused on representing our constituents. Oregon is in crisis. Vaccines are not going to our most vulnerable, our students are still not in a safe classroom setting, main street businesses are in a tailspin, our health data is a mess and here we are, talking about a political party resolution. There is no credible evidence to support false flag claims.
