WA remains last in nation in per capita police staffing - MyNorthwest.com share.google/61uAVqs3PELp... Maybe wrong perspective but, if crime rate was 0, we need enough for accidents, disorderly conduct, help w/ emergencies, let Otis detoxify... things like that. So is fewer cops per capita a bad?

So I'm watching AZ-KS now in NCAAB, and this takes me back to the "good old days", you know, when mortgages were 17%. We'll get through the current times; those times had their problems too. We'll get through these times too. Go Arizona!

Is Cities Church in St. Paul satanic? How else could they have a pastor that is an ICE goon?

"The U.S. defense industrial base needs a mobilization akin to the heights of the world wars ...". Of course if we had a "Peace" president we wouldn't need this. aviationweek.com/defense/budg...

The problem might be that he doesn't realize that "Board of Peace" & "Board of Piece" would be different, & it's not the Piece Prize", but he wants a piece of everything.

Has anyone told Trump & MAGA that a good reason for NATO is so we don't need Greenland? Or, do they really know this but they still need to stimulate their gonads?

A government run by the crooks for the crooks. The most corrupt President in American history.

What just blew my mind is, in the middle of this article the IDF is called a donation recipient. Don't charities normally try to prevent suffering? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is not good. But it points out that Dems have to become a facilitator of a future we want to have, that can actually do things, and not just the don't-euthenize-the-weak or obscure, anti-genocide voice. Unions place early bets on Republicans in key Ohio races share.google/fUcZrUkX7QAT...

Charlie Kirk did not deserve to die. Political violence is unacceptable. At the same time, dying doesn't give anyone the right to rewrite history. He said what he said. And a lot of it was hate and lies.
