The CCP-backed, Soros paid, elderly-attended anti-Trump crowds are at it again, around the world. Really! People who have zero connection to the US President are out in the streets protesting him. You can’t make this stuff up. Starting in London: https://twitter.com/americapapabear/status/2037910709166895274?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Their King supports Islam. They should protest him. https://twitter.com/mattvanswol/status/2037941251153019241?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Also in NC. https://twitter.com/mattvanswol/status/2037948820726628683?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ https://twitter.com/choeshow/status/2037886122190401693?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ …

Just today, Governor "Sideshow Bob" Ferguson signed HB2266 into law. This new law makes "Permanent Supportive Housing" for homeless drug addicts legal everywhere. In the State. No "zoning it out" allowed. Makes permitting easier, statewide. Local jurisdictions may not refuse permits for this kind of homeless housing. Here is what now awaits towns and cities …

Yesterday, I noticed a story about a senior apartment complex in south Seattle, that was being renovated into a "Smart Neighborhood". This apartment complex has been around since the 1960s, and it started out as a "low-income" complex. We all know that those "low-income" apartments always suffer from lack of maintenance and that upgrades are …

My readers will already be aware of the new, unconstitutional income tax just passed with glee and celebrations by our commie legislature. Really, there are videos being passed around of the DemocRats in the legislature celebrating its passage. Tech businesses, restaurants, digital advertising agencies, and wealthy investors have already begun the process of leaving Washington …

All day, every day now, more and more information comes to light regarding what our "elected" officials are raining down on the law-abiding, tax-paying citizens of Washington State. They are getting us coming and going, literally. Washington State has one of the only Death Taxes in America, and it is the highest of any state. …

And the blows to the law-abiding citizens of Washington State just keep coming. It now seems that every day there are new stories of further insults to the intelligence and the already-strained bank accounts of long-suffering Washingtonians. Every day, new indications that we will be hit with higher costs of living, additional red tape and …

https://twitter.com/theonlydsc/status/2033735513153122444?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ When did it start? What was the first inkling that what was previously forbidden behavior, was now going to become not only accepted, but celebrated. What happened that now, if you don't celebrate vulgar, depraved behavior, you are mocked and ridiculed? My guess is this started back in the 1950s and 1960s, with the …

The day after the Washington State DemocRats passed an unconstitutional income tax, the public is pummeled again. And again. https://twitter.com/pnwconservative/status/2031545885121982819?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ https://twitter.com/stevemgordon67/status/2032081605628739626?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ And in Socialist Seattle: https://twitter.com/pnwconservative/status/2031541143675220042?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ The communists of Seattle have a long history of piling taxes upon taxes on themselves. The highly-credentialed residents will probably approve the library levy when it is on their …

Here is a generous sampling of what has been going on in Olympia, as Republicans hold Democrats to a long debate of the unconstitutional bill itself, and multiple amendments which need debate and separate votes. Republicans have been holding this debate literally all night long, attempting to run out the clock. The DemocRats of Washington …

Let's start with a local story, from MyNorthwest.com. They don't have a Plan B: Intentionalist survey shows Seattle's small businesses struggling more than during Covid. The combination of increasing taxes, rising minimum wages, declining city services and foot traffic have made small business's survival a real struggle. Now, since Seattle just elected a Socialist mayor, …
