@sbauerAP So if you're calling it for Crawford, you must know what the lates vote count is? If that's addressed in the story, I missed it. At least an approximate percentage would be nice.

@YourAnonCentral @PaulleyTicks So the point of this video is to discourage belief in any media and even our own eyes? Our cynicism is already peaking, unfortunately, and this doesn’t help.

He’s like Saruman from Lord of the Rings.

But dumber and less stable.

As many of you know, Central Washington is one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world.

Our producers provide the food for our nation, but despite their hard work, these farms are facing many challenges.

Bidenomics at work through the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation:

[Bureau of Reclamation @usbr]

President Biden's Investing in America's Agenda has had a substantial impact on 2024 spring and summer projects in the 17 Western states.

Here's how Reclamation is distributing that funding to communities, Tribes, and water users. “And we’re not done yet!” #Reclamation

Here is one model depiction of the total smoke forecast through Thursday morning. As winds turn northerly, most of the smoke for Eastern Washington and North Idaho will be coming from fires in the North Cascades, and from Canada, as well as any new local fires. #wawx #idwx

BREAKING NEWS: President Joe Biden has written a long letter to the Democratic Party, and it is perfect.

Looks like most of our smoke is from the Pioneer Fire on Lake Chelan.

[NWS Spokane @NWSSpokane]

Quite a bit of smoke showing up from space today from the #PioneerFire 🔥 and #fireworks 🎆. Fireworks smoke will rapidly mix out in the next hour or two. Temperatures today will be in the 90s. #wawx #idwx

Trump facing a criminal trial on March 25 is significant. To understand, review the bidding.

First, before Trump was President, he hid his payments (the hush money) to avoid a criminal indictment then.

Second, he then became President, and said he couldn’t be indicted for his past crimes like the hush money while in office.

Third, he then committed more serious crimes in office (the Mueller report lists 10), and he said he couldn’t be prosecuted for his crimes as a sitting President while in office.

Fourth, he then got voted out of office, and so committed even more crimes to try to stay in office (the Jan. 6 charges, some of the most significant charges in the book), and said he couldn’t be prosecuted for them while he was still President.

Fifth, b/c he couldn't be prosecuted, Congress impeached him and he said he couldn’t be impeached because the only remedy was to prosecute him after he leaves office, not to impeach him.

Sixth, he then leaves office and he’s prosecuted (as per exactly what his lawyers said could happen to him), and he now says he can’t be prosecuted because he is absolutely immune from prosecution for acts while he was President.

Seventh, for crimes he committed when he was NOT President (like the New York ones), he is now saying he can’t be prosecuted for those either, b/c he’s he’s a candidate for President again (as his lawyer argued in court today).

And oh, eighth, he filed a brief in the US Supreme Court today saying because he was not impeached, he can't be convicted.

What is this? What Constitution on earth would permit this?

Last night, people were stuck on I-90 near the Vantage Bridge. Two semitrucks w/o chains spun out, blocking both EB lanes. Collisions on access roads had to be cleared for crews to reach the closure. Our crews and WSP hustled for several hours to clear a path out of the jam (1/2)

With #FacebookDown, a good reminder that in an emergency, social media can't always be counted on (including this platform). Make sure you sign up for other ways for emergency officials to notify you when something is happening. Opt into local alerts at https://t.co/d9bPpRhR0p
