TSA agents are, of course, an exception when someone is passing through airport security. Customs and Border Protection can naturally require identification at border crossings. That's the extent to which DHS agents can compel a U.S.

Institutionalized Racism, Or Racism In Our Institutions
It's not difficult to see through to the root of so many of our problems when I look around at the nation I'm living in. Anyone pretending that White Supremacy hasn't been the underlying substrate of America since before its founding is…

Institutionalized Racism, Or Racism In Our Institutions
It's not difficult to see through to the root of so many of our problems when I look around at the nation I'm living in. Anyone pretending that White Supremacy hasn't been the underlying substrate of America since before its founding is lying, too stupid to be trusted, or in such profound denial that I doubt there's any recovery. Worse than that, I can't ignore that a whole lot of the ridiculous, regressive nonsense we've been dealing with over the last decade, as a nation (on display for the global stage), derives from the altogether too-widespread sentiment that one particular Black man did not know his place and refused to stay in his lane.

Coming To Terms with Absurdity
At some point, we have to come to terms with the fact that a whole swath of the American public has literally no consistent set of values or beliefs. The absurdity of it all is that they're also the same ones who are so desperate to shove their beliefs down the…

Coming To Terms with Absurdity
At some point, we have to come to terms with the fact that a whole swath of the American public has literally no consistent set of values or beliefs. The absurdity of it all is that they're also the same ones who are so desperate to shove their beliefs down the throats of everyone around them. They're the crowd that spent much of 2020 shouting "Back The Blue" and "Blue Lives Matter!" That is, until the police stood in the way of them storming the Capitol Building or arrested them when they were acting as agitators at a protest.

I've been combining my love of exploration and photography with my career in journalism to showcase the beauty of the Northwest.
Here we have Drift Creek Falls.
I left out the lovely bits during the hike, because I wanted to focus on the suspension bridge and the waterfall itself for my newscast.

The mountain was out and she was brilliantly clear this afternoon when I left the gym. I decided to stop at the Washougal Waterfront Park to take some photos on my way home.
I'd been meaning to capture some photos with the eagle statue in the foreground. I only wish it was angled better.

Just once...when Trump starts in with his, "No one knows more than I do about...whatever," bullshit, I want one of the reporters in the room to interject with, "What you know about anything could fit into a thimble and still leave room for a thumb, you magnificent fucking gas bag."
