Look for a 60 Minutes article from tonight: DEI and a canceled U.S. Marine Band concert. CBS news did a fine job and gave a clear double middle finger to FOTUS while they were at it.

It seems obvious, to me at least, that the plan behind all this gutting of government agencies is to get them to fail, or at least stumble badly, in order to justify privatizing them. "Look how bad the government is at ___!" I try hard not to hate, but these people are making a that a real challenge

Question: why isn't there a finite budget for the POTUS (any, not just this one) is allowed to spend for recreational outings (e.g., golf, football games, etc.)? Why should we the taxpayers have to pick up what seems to be an unlimited tab?

For those in Washington 6th District: Senator Patty Murray Everett: 425-259-6515 Olympia: 360-205-2878 D.C.: 202-224-2621 Senator Maria Cantwell Everett: 425-303-0114 Tacoma: 253-572-5879 D.C.: 202-224-3441 Representative Emily Randall Bremerton: 360-373-9727 D.C.: 202-225-5916

What are we being distracted from?

I’m dreaming of a wet Christmas Just like the one outside now Where rain drops glisten And wet clothes rustle To hear gutter chains in the rain, oh the rain I said, I’m dreaming of a wet Christmas With every Christmas card I dry May you days be cloudy and wet And may all your Christmas’s be wet #PNW

The northern Olympic Mountains a couple of days ago. Thought I'd share it to visually point out that it doesn't suck here.
