@stevenrfields @BasedMikeLee Hey Steven! Exactly!

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

I’m about to offer the House-passed version of the SAVE America Act on the Senate floor in connection with tonight’s vote-a-rama

This one should get at least 51 votes

Will keep you posted

@omgsidewalks Absolutely

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

@pnwmom91 Exactly right. Mayor Katie Wilson is putting radical political pandering ahead of actual human lives. She has literally painted a massive bullseye on the city....absolute madness

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

Exactly! It is SO incredibly insulting to women. For decades, hardworking women have managed their own health, their biology, and their careers with absolute strength and grace. We don't need a progressive politician micro-managing the office thermostat or treating us like fragile HR cases to feel "validated."

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

@elonmusk Definitely! Hardworking Americans have to show an ID to buy groceries, board a plane, or drive a car—but asking for proof of citizenship to decide the future of our nation is somehow "too much" for the radical left and establishment uni-party?

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

Yes! this hits the nail right on the head.

While he's busy micro-managing workplace thermostats via executive decree, our actual economy is struggling and our communities need real leadership. Hardworking citizens deserve a leader who can defend their record on actual policy—not hide behind clinical, nanny-state distractions. Show up and debate!

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

Good grief!

I talk to everyday people out in the community constantly, and not a single hardworking woman has ever said, "What I really need is an executive order on menopause." Women want lower inflation, safe communities, and less government interference—not clinical, dystopian workplace mandates.

Stand strong for actual common sense!

[Governor Bob Ferguson @GovBobFerguson]

2 in 5 women considered leaving a job, or did leave a job, due to menopause symptoms.

1 in 4 considered not pursuing, or did not pursue, a leadership opportunity.

I signed an executive order to support women, and to support employers who want to keep their experienced staff.

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

@Diana152281 Goodnight, rest well!

[SeaCat @CatherineInSea]

Are we seriously signing Executive Orders for hot flashes now?

I have been around workplaces for decades and have never heard a single woman complain about this or demand government intervention. Women are incredibly strong, capable, and have managed their biology perfectly fine since the dawn of time without a state agency holding their hand.

Our economy is struggling, but the focus is on micro-managing the thermostat via executive decree. Peak nanny state nonsense! 🤡

🔥 I had never heard of the YouTuber Jesse Ridgway before this, but I did read his post, and it was truly awful and heartbreaking. With that said, since thousands of people have already responded, here is my two cents:

He signed off with “we’re excited to try again for a better outcome.” Better outcome? Bro, that was a HUMAN LIFE. A baby with an extra chromosome who would’ve smiled, laughed, hugged his parents, and lit up a room just like every other Down syndrome kid I’ve ever met.

- While MILLIONS of women are crying themselves to sleep because they can’t conceive…
- While loving couples wait YEARS on adoption lists desperate for ANY baby…

You had one. And you threw it away like it was defective merchandise.

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

Seattle chef Brendan McGill closes downtown restaurants after 10 years, says city ‘slid into irrelevance’

June 4, 2026

Acclaimed Seattle chef Brendan McGill is closing the book on a decade of restaurants at downtown’s Exchange Building, sharing a raw, emotional farewell on social media that mourns both his shuttered spaces and the slow unraveling of the city’s central business district.

McGill, owner of Hitchcock Restaurant Group, closed Café Hitchcock and Oyster Cellar at the base of the Exchange Building on May 31, ending a 10-year run that began with packed lunch rushes and ended with empty sidewalks.

“Three years of building and opening beautiful, rewarding spaces, a couple years of deep uncertainty, then a long, gradual decline that I simply refused to believe wouldn’t turn around,” McGill wrote in a Facebook post this week.

In the early years, McGill said, the restaurants thrived on a steady stream of office workers who “diligently burst through the halls of the building before 7 a.m. every morning.” Demand was strong enough that he expanded into the building’s Second Avenue corner, opening an express café in a former Tully’s Coffee space.

The momentum continued when EQ Office bought the building. McGill said the company’s CEO wanted to revamp the corner with “an exquisite bar and tenant amenity space,” and the new concept opened in September 2019.

“My dreams had come true, taking our company from a tiny storefront on Bainbridge Island to the intersection of wealth and power,” McGill wrote. “Everything was working as we’d intended.”

The Pandemic hollowed out downtown, Seattle chef says
Six months later, the pandemic hit.

“Lockdowns. No return to office. The tenants left,” McGill wrote. “The central business district of Seattle continued to slide into irrelevance. At long last, our stores were the only open business within blocks.”

He said even loyal customers stopped coming, telling him, “We just hate coming downtown.”

McGill recalled betting on the location because of its history.

“First Avenue, downtown Seattle, is never going out of style,” he remembered telling himself. “For 100 years, there has been a walking viaduct from the ferry cresting a three-way intersection that would never not make sense.”

“Life has a funny way of teaching a lesson,” he wrote. “The rest of the story is honestly just too painful to get into.”

McGill told The Puget Sound Business Journal this week that Seattle is no longer a “no-brainer” for restaurateurs, pointing to Bellevue, Tacoma, Edmonds, Spokane, and Boise, Idaho, as more attractive markets.

He will continue to operate three restaurants on Bainbridge Island — Café Hitchcock, Bruciato, and the newly revamped Kingfisher — along with a new wholesale company.

“Thanks for 10 years of making memories, feeding the people, and never giving up until the bitter end,” he wrote. “RIP Oyster Cellar, Café Hitchcock, Bar Taglio/Solea.”

A Texas homeowner got an unexpected surprise when he nearly walked into a small alligator on his porch in Fulshear. Police safely wrangled the reptile and relocated it to a nearby pond.

@JesterJum I think it's smart!

@tracegallagher Not surprised! They don't actually care about morals or standards; they only care about power. The double standards are mind-boggling!
