WA spending has increased from $26 B to $80 B+ in 15years, we have a spending problem and an accountability problem: Why I am urging voters to Vote Yes on 645 to repeal WA’s income tax mynorthwest.com/jake-and-spi…

I’m against all of these.
The new force in politics and elections is independents.
The fact independents are NOT an organized party, means we can individually do what we think is right, without regard to party politics. That is a force we have not seen before. And it is only growing as we all become increasingly disgusted by party politics.
Pushing these would backfire on Democrats.
My biggest concern is that if there is a clean sweep by Democrats of the House, Senate and Presidency in 2028, they will:
1. Make DC and Puerto Rico states to gain a strong majority in the Senate.
2. Open the borders and legalize everyone living in America illegally to cement a permanent majority.
3. Increase the size of the Supreme Court to gain an immediate majority.
This would result in America becoming a permanent one-party state and the end of democracy in any meaningful sense of the word.
All that is needed to ensure this doesn’t happen is 51 Republican senators in 2029. That is why you should vote for Republican senators this election. Other reasons are irrelevant compared to this one.

"It’s akin to the government taking $290 from each American taxpayer and then handing about $25,000 to each farm—all financed through borrowing at increasingly high interest rates."
(And that's not even all of it!)
My latest for @TheDispatch tallies & laments the $46B in unilateral, blatantly-political support that Trump has given American farmers to offset the harms of his own tariff & foreign policies.
It's all very bad - and there's likely more to come.

After DM’ng them as requested, @AlaskaAir is refusing to provide any additional support or working method of contact even though I have provided Apple findmy evidence that my iPad is at their warehouse. They won’t even provide a mailing address.
Or, I hear it is $2M for the Pardon Flambé, if so inclined.

Microsoft just offered a quarter of its workforce the door, Windows and Copilot included. Olympia is writing a 2028 budget on 21,500 million-dollar households, a lot of them paid in vesting stock.
Those households are the forecast, the spending is coming no matter what. Next up, you.

"Microsoft is offering buyouts to about 60,000 employees, or roughly a quarter of its workforce, as the company tries to control its head count while avoiding layoffs."
Am I misunderstanding this or is the greater Seattle area cooked 😳

Ya’ll WA state is not healthy. The business climate is unstable. We need a correction badly and quickly.
There is a major shake-up at Microsoft.
The Seattle Times reported the company is offering buyouts to about 60,000 employees — roughly a quarter of its workforce — in an effort to avoid more layoffs.

An administration that denounces the Pope but lauds Putin as a humanitarian is wholly unfit to lead.

“It’s not only unlawful, but it’s not in the US interest to have Russian technology controlling the commercialization of Arctic gas in the North Slope,” ex-Polar LNG CEO who quit after discovering secret Russian funding tells @antontroian and @EricLiptonNYT nytimes.com/2026/10/23/us/po…
The real question is what’s the price Musk and his fellow US elites are getting to sell America’s soul to a murderous dictator

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs.
After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

From @WSJopinion: Democrats need McCain-Romney Republicans. To make its impending victory last, my party should look to the center, not move further left, writes @RahmEmanuel.

Memo to the Trump administration: Stop buying companies.
A government $40 trillion in debt should be SELLING assets, not buying ownership stakes in 36 companies.
We thought government control of the means of production was what we were fighting against.

When our President is weak on the dictator and war criminal, and hard on the victim who is allied with freedom… then you embolden the dictator and get more war crimes. Ballistic missile attacks on citizens are not humanitarian.
Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones.
Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

If the GOP is going to be the party of tariffs, trade wars, and obsequiousness to one of the most evil men on the planet, they can all go straight to hell.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.
