@amazon@ring@amazon If you can even get through to a customer representative, they have nothing in their "toolbox" to make things right. Now I understand why you offer Prime members extra cash back...you can't deliver on time anymore.
David Friedberg: It's not rich vs poor, it's makers vs takers.
@friedberg:
“ The great lie is that there are two sides to society, that is the rich and the poor.
And the great truth is that there are two sides that are the makers and the takers.
The lie is that the rich are unfairly rich and the poor are unfairly poor, and therefore, the poor must take from the rich.
But the truth is that it's the takers that tell you that lie, that the real truth is that artists, plumbers, electricians, woodworkers, computer scientists, people that build, people that make from all walks of life, all income levels, all wealth brackets, are the makers.
And the takers are what Sacks calls this intelligentsia, the analysts, the espousers, the armchair mechanics, the critics, the commentators, the politicians. They are the takers.
They are the people that watch the rest of society make stuff, build stuff, specifically doing things that create value for other people in society. That's what a maker is.”
Washington is skipping America's 250th birthday celebration because Olympia says it's too expensive. Meanwhile the state is shoveling money at deportation lawyers and DEI conferences without blinking. Does this embarrass you as much as it embarrasses us?
Part of Obama’s speech today at the opening of his $1 billion library:
"In forming our union, the founders fell terribly short of the Declaration's promise, leaving slavery intact, allowing states to restrict the franchise to white men who owned property.”
Always the racist who doesn’t know facts.
@its_The_Dr Let's talk nonprofit Healthcare...hint, a CEO in Chicago 17MIllion DOLLARS. The staff, administration, technical, clinicians, etc got a 3% raise last year! Wonder why Healthcare is so expensive? Look at the layers of C suite executives.
Just incredible, many of us have seen a head of a business that doesn’t deserve it and get all the money and doesn’t treat employees good. Meet the head of Boeing.
There’s a new disturbing social media trend of BLM activists posting edited images of themselves urinating on Austin’s grave
You can’t get much lower than this.
Make these POS scum famous
Hey WA,
Trump has banned the USPS from sending out any ballots in states where they do not allow access to the voter rolls.
If Steve Hobbs doesn't hand over the voter rolls not a single ballot will be sent out via USPS for the election in November.
Every ballot will be required have unique barcodes to verify each individual voter and provide an actual chain of custody.
States will hand over the voters rolls and confirm each voter is eligible against a verified citizen list or the ballot will not be sent out.
@PattyMurray I am coming for that seat.
This is all coming to an end guys.
🚨 BREAKING: Governor DeSantis is calling for the IMMEDIATE IMPEACHMENT of Judge Tiffany Baker.
Judge Baker released a child rapist who was a KNOWN danger to society.
While out on bail, the rapist tortured and killed a 5 year old little girl.
Should she be impeached?
Governor Bob Ferguson's plan is simple: No smartphones or smartwatches from the moment school starts to the moment it ends. Every public school in the state, kindergarten through 12th grade. @KIROCharlie says this proposal is a 'home run.'

Bob Ferguson just admitted Washington is staring down another massive budget shortfall, less than a year after signing the biggest tax hike in state history. His own budget office is calling it the "most challenging budget" cycle ever. Where did all that tax money go?
“Washington doesn’t have a revenue problem. It has a spending problem.”
Democrats passed the largest tax increase in state history — and somehow Bob Ferguson is already warning about another ‘significant’ shortfall.
Washington state Democrats are on track to spend more than A MILLION DOLLARS in taxpayer money trying to keep me, @choeshow, and @thehoffather from getting press passes. And not a single legacy news outlet has taken the side of press freedom.
Hey WA,
I need your help.
I am asking @GovBobFerguson to call a special session to suspend the CCA to immedietly lower gas prices and utilities.
If you want Bob to suspend the CCA to help working families and lower gasoline and electricity costs then share this post and like it.
Others in the legislator are starting to call for it.
Let's see if Bob actually cares about working class people in Washington.

🇬🇧🇬🇧He told the police: “I’ve been stabbed… I can’t breathe… I’m dying.”
Officer replied: “Don’t think you have, mate.”
They treated him like the criminal and let him die in cuffs on the street.
The media gave him nothing.
I made this Music video because I’m fucking angry.
Blood on the Cuffs😡🤬 Fuck you Mainstrem media
Barbara Walters writes:
Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only the idea of our country, but specific men who served and sacrificed during the Vietnam War.
The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat. In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho LoPrison, the "Hanoi Hilton."
Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American "peace activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.
He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward onto the camp commandant 's feet, which sent that officer berserk.
In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.
From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in the "Hanoi Hilton". . . The first three of which his family only knew he was "missing in action." His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed and clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation" visit.
They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they were alive and still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his Social Security Number on it, in the palm of his hand. When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.
She took them all without missing a beat. . . At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him all the little pieces of paper...
Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know of her actions that day.
I was a civilian economic development adviser in Vietnam, and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for over 5 years.
I spent 27 months in solitary confinement; one year in a cage in Cambodia; and one year in a 'black box' in Hanoi. My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Banme Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.)
We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."
When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with her. I said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the real treatment we POWs received. . . and how different it was from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as "humane and lenient."
Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees, with my arms outstretched with a large steel weight placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane.
I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda soon after I was released. I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on TV. She never did answer me.
These first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone who should be honored as part of "100 Years of Great Women." Lest we forget. . . "100 Years of Great Women" should never include a traitor whose hands are covered with the blood of so many patriots.
There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi Jane's participation in blatant treason, is one of them. Please take the time to forward to as many people as you possibly can. It will eventually end up on her computer, and she needs to know that we will never forget. See less
This sweet beagle has never known a real name. All her life, she was just a number in a testing lab — where the only touch she ever felt was one that caused pain and fear. Now she’s finally free, but she still shakes when hands come near. Yet deep in her eyes, there’s a small, fragile spark of hope… that maybe, at last, she’s safe and loved 💖✨
