I know they lost the OT shop but thought that Gyle was the replacement. I'm not sure this location is at all thought through.

Meuser: "We have some great things happening in our economy. This whole inflation debate -- when Reagan came in, he took 2, 3 years to start bringing down inflation with high interest rates. The president has corrected inflation just in 4, 5, 6, 8 months."

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Trump demanded Texas and other red states redraw their congressional districts to rig the midterms in Republicans' favor.

California fought back by redrawing its map to balance out this power grab. Now, Trump’s DOJ is suing California.

The hypocrisy is endless.

It’s baby octopus season 🐙🦑

Saw this little guy last night with the Salish Sea School in Anacortes, WA as part of their free community dock walk I volunteer as an interpreter for.

We can tell it is a giant pacific octopus from the single line of chromatophores on each arm.
