Fuck this. Either we start pushing back, HARD and NOW, or this gets forgotten in the never-ending flooding of the zone with shit, becomes the new normal, part of the background noise of this petty tyrant.

Proud to be a Washingtonian. Proud of my governor.
AG Bondi, get bent.
AG Bondi, get bent.
Attorney General Bondi sent me a letter last week. It purports to notify me that Washington state “has been identified” as a “so-called sanctuary jurisdiction” — on grounds that her letter makes no effort whatsoever to explain.
