Dear Dem Party...You keep sending emails begging for $15 while we...watch fascism consolidate power in real time. This administration is...a coordinated, authoritarian machine with SOCUS, House, Senate and the executive all under its control. And...you’re still asking for decorum... WTF! Liz Cheney

Summer flight bookings from Canada to USA are down 21 % says the NYTimes. Several American cities from Myrtle Beach SC to Derby Line VT that rely on Canadian tourists are reeling from the absence. Looks worse here in the Skagit! CDN, please don't blame the orange gangster's asininity on us...

As a mental health counselor, I personally know there are PLENTY of counselors available. Don't fall for the marketing bs that there are not. In person presence, real healer counseling is the most effective, perhaps even the only curative treatment. How about online or chatbot parenting? Anyone?

Thank goodness it's legal now, so we can study it and move away from the silly urban myth of benefit without detriment. Benefits there are, but its detriments usually overwhelm. The one that stops me is the well-documented connection to lowering IQ with longterm use. Ain't no free in this world.

Hello?! “Since 1920, the vast increase in welfare beneficiaries and the extension of the franchise to women—two constituencies that are notoriously tough for libertarians—have rendered the notion of ‘capitalist democracy’ into an oxymoron.”—Peter Thiel, 2nd highest paid chief executive next to Musk.

“We want to wean off of FEMA, bring it down to the state level,” GICUS said of the Federal Emergency Management Agency last week. Kristi Noem, who oversees it, added the agency “fundamentally needs to go away as it exists” after this hurricane season. Giggle, wait 'til The Big One hits Mar-a-Lago!

"Real-world reports since 2016 analyzed in updated meta-analysis" Nicole Lou, MedPage Today, June 17, 2025. Meta-analysis of 24 observational studies confirms excess risks of heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular death among cannabis users adding to growing evidence of significant health harms.

While it was my drug of choice in the 20th century, the research that keeps cannabis IN ANY FORM away from my face in the 21st is it's been shown to be the only recreational drug to reduce IQ and motivation permanently with longterm use. No thank you---I need all the brain power I can muster.

To squeeze profit from global supply chains, Big Corp supports closed borders and free trade agreements so as to shop for cheap workers and keep them from going to better jobs elsewhere. The immigration system is rigged to channel an upward flow of wealth at the cost of human rights. Surprised yet?

Save our cities! Since January 5, a $9 congestion toll in Manhattan was begun to raise $500m annually for public transport. Buses are moving up to 20% faster, 70,000 fewer vehicles are on the roads reducing pollution and accident injuries. Noise complaints on busy streets dropped 70%. Win, win, win!

The big bully's Big Ugly Bill would raise after-tax income of the highest-earning 10% of American households by 2.3% a year over the next decade and lower incomes for the poorest tenth by 3.9% by cutting spending on health care, food stamps and other programs benefitting the poor and working class.

The average American spends more than four hours a day on their smartphone and more than seven in total online. That adds up to 17 years of adult life browsing the internet. That's one way to get a life, I suppose...

White men always have had the luxury of attending to different things than those lower on the power spectrum. They actually remember differently filling in blanks to aggrandize ego. Mrs notices something, Mr says he did. A black writes a tune, he coopts it. Past tired of this fast and loose reality.

Note Robert's Reich's wordage. "Yesterday’s demonstrations..." "The energy, exuberance, and solidarity of those demonstrations..." He doesn't say "protests." The People demonstrated its right to assemble and freedom of speech. Media changes "demonstration" FOR to "protest" AGAINST. Subtle mindfuck.

In the larger context, this age of war is the biological result of overpopulation. When cages become too densely populated, mice eat each other. In Tigray, 600,000 people were killed 2020 to 2022. Sadly, it's in our nature. Make too many babies, trigger genocide. To end war, perfect birth control.

Human memory is short. Mussolini rose to power 100 years ago and here we go again with a dozen fascist thugs spewing lies. Let's hope it ends similarly, but without a third world war. Though perhaps it would be fair to call the 120 armed conflicts taking place around the planet now World War III...

US Grifter-in-Chief is BAD for business. Even if a new China trade "deal" sticks, its sole "win" is to return to the status quo before he provoked a trade war. He smacked Skagit County's economy by frightening away needed farm workers with ICE and Canadian tourists with stupid threats and tariffs.

CA Gov. Gavin Newsom declared “democracy is under assault” accusing GICUS of “pulling a military dragnet” across LA. During protests over immigration raids and military deployments, he recounted Ice had sent unmarked cars to schools, grabbed people outside Home Depot and a 9-mos pregnant citizen!

The primary problem. GICUS coopted their tribal myth. They believe EVERYTHING dems say or do is a lie. That is the chief falsehood they've swallowed whole, so nothing we say or do can be effective. Somehow, we have to show not shout...

If you're National Guard or active military and you're being ordered to violate US constitutional rights, you may call the GI Rights Hotline 877-447-4487. Fascism is scary, but while it takes one tyrant to create a police state, it's estimated it takes only 3.5 percent of a population to topple it.

The White House Press Secretary said mobilizing the National Guard was needed because "violent mobs attacked ICE Officers and Federal Law Enforcement Agents carrying out basic deportation operations in LA." These claims were contradicted by the LAPD which described Saturday's protests as "peaceful."

If this monstrous bill passes as is, we lose the USA, quite possibly forever. It would deconstruct our republic ruled by law instead of monarchy that the fathers of our nation created. No respectable American can support it, only souless gangsters or grifters.

Of course its lackeys did. Can you imagine the writhing can of worms that would open if SCOTUS laid blame where it's deserved? On a rapaciously greedy arms industry? Thank you Mexico for speaking an obvious truth. How do those people sleep at night? Oh right! Silk sheets.
