With 73% of the votes in, Dem Shawn Harris will advance to a runoff to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene. While it looks promising, Shawn received 34k votes, and Republicans received 54k votes. We’ll need huge turnout and a miracle to ultimately win the seat. Still too many stupid voters down there. 😡
Saying that you -must- be grateful is what domestic abusers and Russian prison guards do. You must take the violence and say you like it. It is a mark of fascism.
The good news is that if we lose in Iran and create horror across the region then Jesus comes back and fixes everything. Hegseth Doctrine.

Does anyone in Anacortes know, when the San Juan Lanes shut down, did the restaurant and its fish and chips live on somewhere else?

A few clippings from last spring of forsythia and daffodils in my green watering can. A sweet reminder of all that is to come. Wishing everyone a good Sunday.

The area in the exclusion zone around Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant appears frozen in time, as recovery continues in a changed landscape and nature reclaims abandoned buildings 15 years after disaster struck.
From Stars and Stripes' Seth Robson in Fukushima:
Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"
(Guardian) — Iran has spurned two messages from Donald Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, seeking a ceasefire as its leaders sense it is not losing the war and the US president is at the minimum feeling the political pressure.

“What we’re seeing right now is the culmination of decades of cultivated mistrust on the part of both Big Tech and the government,” EFF’s @MGuariglia.bsky.social told @TheHill.com. “In a more perfect world, you have entities that you trust with your data.”

COOK: “.. From stonewalling the release of the Epstein files, to downplaying the seriousness of the affordability crisis, to waging military action in Venezuela and Iran, the president has put the loyalty of his base through a series of political stress tests.”

There is a reason the Pentagon hasn't been releasing these numbers daily. The cost of Donald Trump's Iran War is bigger than they want you to believe.
PANTHEON: “.. small businesses were finding it difficult to plan for the future even before the war in Iran sent energy prices soaring.
“.. the proportion of businesses answering ‘don’t know’ or ‘uncertain’ to six [survey] questions .. remains in the top 10% of all past readings since 1986 ..”
No other president was dumb enough, selfish enough, inconsiderate enough or malevolent enough.
Thankfully, no other president ever needed to.

Thanks, was not going to watch. So sad what is happening to DC
Beware of this video. I accidentally started it, it went full screen, then couldn’t stop it, no matter what I did. Had to completely shut down/power off the iPad to stop it. 🤔
Does sound awful. Just get me a black coffee. Even that has been ruined. The beans have been so genetically modified that taste and strength of the coffee is not what it used to be.
Sorry, I totally discount whatever Leavitt says.
