I like bikes, music, mountaineering, books, and little doggies.
Seattle Times is convinced there’s a god given right to drive a car anywhere you want, any time you want. Complain, complain, complain.
Weird that I’ve never seen them complain about the snarled traffic at Husky Stadium football games.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

When you're a good man, they let you do anything. You can just reach right out and protect them.
Nancy Mace: "You can see in the Epstein emails that he's clearly targeting President Trump as retribution for him being a good man ... he's a good man who protects women. That's what real men do."

why would someone spend millions on building a factory in the US under the presumption that US-made products will be protected if the protection comes and goes on a whim?

Hello Mr. Insurance Company I would like to purchase a comprehensive health insurance plan for 1 dollar. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
TRUMP: We’re going to give Americans the money to buy health insurance
REPORTER: But won’t they buy it from

Another revelation from all of these emails is that many of the richest and most powerful people in the country absolutely cannot write. Helps explain their sweaty embrace of LLMs.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.
He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.
Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

UPDATE: The city declined to provide a breakdown of internal costs for Mayor Bruce Harrell's slickly produced budget video, which largely duplicates his campaign talking points, after initially saying that they would. 1/2

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt?
He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.
