Well, Seattle, You Asked For It! Socialist elected Mayor.

Last week's election was what normally happens in Western Washington. Since most elections in Seattle are between Leftists, and all-mail balloting, the vote counts take over a week, and even if the less-left candidate is in the lead after a couple of days, miraculously the farthest-left gains the most new votes (like close to 100% …

Are you planning that European vacation? You might wish to reconsider.

On October 12, the EU and Great Britain initiate their new Entry/Exit System. All travelers from non-EU countries will need to provide biometric data, including facial scans and fingerprints, along with the normal passports. They state that your data will be retained for THREE YEARS, but we can guess that the data will really be …

A thought on the price of gasoline

Think of it this way. They (the government) tax motor fuel, which society needs second only to water, the way they price alcohol and tobacco. They load it up with multiple different taxes (sales taxes, cap-and-trade taxes, energy taxes, weight taxes, road-use taxes), and in some places the tax burden is higher than the price …

Never forget what they did to us in 2020 and beyond. Lesson from Dr. Simon Goddek.

I follow the good young Doctor on X/Twitter, and he came up with a very good description of what the evil world government and their medical henchmen did to us in 2020. I am going to post every unit of his excellent thread, complete with AI-generated images that eerily capture what went on, and is, …

Snohomish County Health can go pound sand

It's not about "public health" anymore, it's about Control of The Population.  This story and graph appeared in the Mill Creek View, a free newspaper.  The two definitely tell exactly opposite stories.  Which would you believe? The story tells you that the local public health "authorities" recommend that the always-obedient people resume mask wearing indoors …

They’ve Got Us Right Where They Want Us (with thanks to a Ricochet friend for the idea)

Isolated from friends and family. Schools closed, so our children cannot see or play with their friends; in fact, being taught to fear their friends. Churches closed. Movie theaters, retail shops, bars and restaurants closed (these are all the places where we socialize together). Stuck at home. Working from home, distant from colleagues and supervisors …

The world will NOT come to an end on October 1

If Congress cannot pass a "continuing resolution" keeping the bloated government funded for a few more months, some federal workers might have to take some time off, but the sun will still come up in the morning and set at night. The average person will feel NO effects of a "government shutdown", and many of …

Obama Lied, Your Employer-provided Health Benefits Died

The inhabitant of the White House in Washington DC stated, when trying to convince the American People to like ObamaCare (he likes that title now), that "If you like your health plan, you can keep it". That was a bald-faced LIE. For most of us, the health plan that we have is not ours, it …

What’s The Matter with India?

In India, Toilet Paper Becomes More Valuable Than the RupeeTake a gander at this headline from 24/7 Wall Street.  www.247wallst.comHe gets it partly right, but doesn't go far enough.   Since its independence, India has been a socialist, or socialist-leaning country.  Even when they tried to ditch some of the socialist features of their economy, …
