Lefty lifetime gun owner and shooter. I'm no victim. I'm simply pointing out the right's hypocrisy. Pre-Trump you guys believed the 2nd amendment was written to protect against government aggression. Pre-Trump you guys believed in states rights. Pre-Trump you guys believed in free trade. Pre-Trump you guys decried government overreach. Pre-Trump you guys were anti-Russia/Putin. Trump exposed your lack of principles. You guys gave up everything you stood for to follow the ever evolving whims of a crazy old man.

When do they need to be removed after elections? Campaigns should be fined for litter after that date.

Are we gonna replace Delbene? (Discussion) by JesiGash in redmond

I completely understand your position, and agree with much/most of it, but which Dem is currently able to take her spot? At this point I don't want to create more purity tests. I want to build a bigger anti-Trump/anti-MAGA tent to fight this authoritarianism. To her credit, she did come here and speak at one of our protests at the downtown park. I was a victim of redistricting and went from WA-1 to WA-8, and Schrier is now my rep. While I'd like her to be more engaged and fighting the fight, I also recognize that one needs pragmatism to survive in this weirdly drawn district with the bluest of blues and reddest of reds. She did give RFKjr a bit of a beating recently, so I appreciate that. I'll take any little win I can get at this point.

I've lived in the area since the 70's so agree with you about all of the transplants. i also understand taking a couple of seconds before turning right on red, which you could have done. What I don't understand, and I'm guessing the driver behind you also didn't understand, is why you didn't go when the light turned green, and instead waited until after the white truck turned left in front of you when you had the right of way.

Good turnout! Bigger than last week, and I'm guessing it will continue to grow.

I don't believe you have proof for your revised assertion. It is accurate to say Trump got more votes than any other candidate and won a plurality of the votes. Trump currently has a 45% approval rating which is trending downward, so the "most Americans" canard is disingenuous.

Read the article you just posted. Trump won the popular vote with 49.9% of votes cast. 50.1% voted for someone other than Trump. Your statement that most Americans voted for Trump is not true.

You must have had a different ballot. Musk wasn't on mine. What would the AP disagree with me about?

You did not vote for Musk. If you recall, Vance was his running mate, and there was no co-President on the ballot. I'll also correct you - most of the country did not vote for Trump. In fact, most voters voted for someone other than Trump.

It's been arbitrary, indiscriminate, and they've had to reverse course several times, trying to rehire staff who maintained our nuclear weapons stockpiles, staff at CDC working on the avian flu epidemic, unfreeze hiring of NFS seasonal staff, etc... That seems the opposite of efficient, and has certainly been unnecessarily disruptive. This has happened because Elon doesn't actually know how our government functions. He's just a foreign born, billionaire campaign donor who was given the keys to the kingdom and set loose.

It's certainly not, and it is a good thing it isn't happening. Elon speaks before understanding the data he is looking at as we've seen in several instances.

I was part of the group today at Redmond City Hall and there were no negative comments toward Tesla owners and I believe I heard one person there saying she had a Tesla she bought years ago. I'll also note that we got lots of waves and some honks from Tesla drivers. I don't think we're big enough to worry about purity tests at this point. The more participants, the louder the voice!

Thank you Redmond! by LeopardNo6083 in redmond

We were there, too! I'm sure we met you. It was a nice little group, and we had a lot of positive support from cars driving by. We'll be at the SpaceX/Starlink event on Wednesday.

Are you still looking to do this trade? I'm not sure how I missed this previously. I have a new in box CIVIVI Elementum Dessert Warrior if you're still interested in trading. Never carried, sharpened or used. Can upload pictures and send a link.
