These stories are all from today. A big thanks to all the locals who keep us informed about how our state and city politicians are taxing and regulating us into oblivion. https://twitter.com/bkheywood/status/1903235694220415259?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Overturning the will of the People https://twitter.com/vijayinwa/status/1902930873684771140?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Europe tried this and rejected it https://twitter.com/wahousegop/status/1903221151821975798?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ The Left has no limiting principal https://twitter.com/susan_dupres/status/1903240335205290387?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Retirees who …

It started out as a long wish list…what is the DemocRat plan for Washington State now?

On By rushbabe49In Authoritarianism, Culture, Economics, elections, environmentalism, Law and Justice, Politics in the Age of Trump, Progressive "Thought"1 Comment

My readers will remember the accidentally-released wish of new taxes the super-majority Dems want to impose on us. Here’s a reminder: Now that the legislature is in session, here are some examples of what they are asking for. One more thing. The Dems have eliminated their own rule that a bill must have a 2/3 …

SEATTLE — Parts of Seattle are expected to come to a halt Saturday as demonstrators take to the streets ahead of President-elect Trump's inauguration on Monday. Saturday's People's March comes after more …

The latest Crime Report from the Seattle War Zone-Updated

And this is not an exaggeration, either! When you read a news headline that includes the words "two dozen shell casings" and "turf war between pimps," you know that it's not just your everyday crime situation. With the Seattle City Council defunding the police, and officers quitting right and left, my former city (I do …

It just keeps getting worse: Dispatch from the Urban Jungle that is Seattle

You know, this is rapidly getting old. The constant stories of drug gangs, murders of innocents, rising homeless camps that were cleared recently, and teachers molesting students. What haven't we seen going down in the Seattle area? The crime rate is going higher, streets are more dangerous (even in nicer neighborhoods), judges still release prolific …

Yeah, it’s late, but it’s my blog and I can do whatever I want. Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #328: Winter

Next to Autumn, Winter is my favorite season. I like cold weather, and I'd rather have it too cold than too warm. You can always bundle up against the cold, but you can't get more naked than naked when it's too hot. And believe me, I experienced both situations during my two years in grad …

From the header photo, you can see that Washington is blessed with abundant natural beauty. From the Pacific Ocean to the Cascade Mountains to the Mighty Columbia River, God has endowed our state with every possible kind of wild and scenic landscape. Well… Maybe not all of the landscapes are quite as scenic as they …

Asymmetric Warfare in Politics, or Why it’s so Tough to Find Conservatives to Run for Office

Our State of Washington has been ruled for decades by Democrats, mostly elected by the voters (or non-voters) of Seattle, whose population outnumbers the rest of the state.  In the last 20 or so years, a new phenomenon has arisen that has basically consigned conservatives in Western Washington to minority status, and that is the rise …
