🚨🇺🇸 HAPPY FLAG DAY!
Johnny Cash captured the soul of America like no one else in “Ragged Old Flag”:
“She's getting thread bare, and she's wearin thin, But she's in good shape, for the shape she's in.”
That ragged old flag still flies.
We are mighty proud of her. 🇺🇸
Does anyone else find it odd that $200 billion is spent on cancer research every single year...and the only thing to show for it is a 75% increase in cancer deaths since the 1990s?
Shaquille O’Neal says his kids need three degrees to touch Daddy’s cheese
“In order to touch Daddy's cheese you gotta have three degrees because I believe in respectable nepotism”
“I was with the Miami Heat one day and this article came out. The grandmother leaves the son $250,000,000”
“This kid's on his knees scrubbing the bathroom floor and I'm looking at him. I'm like, hey man, didn't your grandmother just leave you $250,000,000?”
“Yeah, but Dad wants me to start from the bottom. Once I saw that I was like, you know what, that right there is respectable nepotism”
“I also have to teach my kids we're not rich, I'm rich”
Washington needs to wake up.
We are about to lose our AAA bond rating and that will be devastating.
@GovBobFerguson is projecting another huge budget shortfall after 1 million people moved into the state.
They are all freaking out because of it.
Guess what the one thing is they AREN'T talking about?
Cutting spending in any way.
They are only looking at ways to generate more money.
🤨
What's happening here is NOT political.
This is just basic governance and finances.
It has nothing to do with Democrats or MAGA.
When you don't have enough money to cover your expenses you start cutting things you don't need.
If people do not vote out the ones doing this WA State will be destroyed.
This isn't about Trump or anything else.
This is about saving our home.
WAKE UP!!

The Sound Transit board just took a red pen to ST3. Ballard gets cut off at Seattle Center. Kirkland-to-Issaquah pushed to 2050. A car rental tax was raised to help cover the shortfall. And not one of the 18 people who made those calls was elected to that seat. @KIROCharlie takes a deep dive into this on today's commentary.
Two days ago, Spencer Pratt held a cookout at Jim Gilliam Park in the Jungles. A week earlier, Rolling 60s territory. Politicians avoid these neighborhoods, scared of the anger from decades of neglect.
Spencer showed up anyway. Broke bread. Listened.
This is a new Los Angeles.
Help me understand America.
Why is it that liberal athletes are celebrated for speaking out politically, while conservative athletes are criticized for doing the same thing?
When athletes supported Obama, they were praised by the media, corporations, sports leagues, and Hollywood. Nobody called it “dangerous” or “polarizing.”
The same thing happened in 2016, when many athletes attended Hillary Clinton rallies, publicly supported her, and openly campaigned for her.
But when conservative athletes express their opinions, they are told to stay quiet, while liberal athletes are applauded for doing the exact same thing.
Americans can see the double standard.
Teammate beats his wife?
NFL players: crickets
Teammate introduces President Trump at an event?
NFL players: “I have to speak out against this.”
Make it make sense.
Just a reminder that if Bob Ferguson wanted to help Washingtonians and lower gas prices, he could come out with an emergency proclamation at any time and cut more than a dollar off every gallon.
Seattle renters pay $2,100 a month. Buy a home and that jumps to $4,500 — one of the biggest rent-to-own gaps in the entire country. A median-income household here can't even qualify for a mortgage on the median home. Is this what 20 years of Democrat housing policy looks like?
