We simply can't relax around here. The Democrat Overlords (as they see themselves) will come up with new ways to tax and hound their constituent peasants, on a near-daily basis. When it's not gangs of black teens terrorizing law-abiding neighbors, it's the new taxes and fees, either existing or proposed. A local commenter today laid …

Really, the Democrat Machine in Washington and other Democrat states has been coordinating multi-state lawsuits against nearly ALL of Trump's Executive Orders and Agency regulations. Since 2015 when Trump first ran for President, the Democrats have been throwing nets around everyone in his orbit, and filing lawsuits on a daily basis to thwart everything he …
It is common knowledge that the Leftists who run Washington abhor the logging industry, charging them with destroying the state's old-growth forests for profit, and contributing to the extinction of species like the Spotted Owl. Given that most of the old growth forests were logged in the 19th Century, mostly for shipbuilding and home construction, …

It seems that just yesterday, I wrote a post right here about the poor conditions in Washington's forests making them primed for wildfires. This was based on a trip we took on Tuesday to Mount Rainier National Park. We drove up to Sunrise, and I commented that the Mountain itself was shrouded in wildfire smoke …
The past weekend was Seafair in Seattle, a city-wide celebration that has gone on for many decades. There are events all over the city, including the big Torchlight Parade through downtown, and the big food festival Bite of Seattle. Since the onerous Covid restrictions imposed by the Far-Left city government in 2020, the Bite has …
Please, please, DO NOT STAY HOME! This Primary is perhaps the most important one you will ever have in our all-DemocRat state! We simply cannot allow the Public-Employee Unions and Socialist Democrats to ruin this state further! There are important local, county, and State Supreme Court candidates in this Primary, and we need every single …
