Hi, I'm a downtown Seattle Liberal who enjoys the human condition, comedy, photography and Art.
I'm a pro choice, pro women, BLM, LGBTQIA supporter. If you're a Trump fan or a bigot we aren't going to get along so just move along. I'm just not interested.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.
For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

The Trump administration closed the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It's an agency responsible for protecting consumers in the financial sector. The CFPB oversees banks, mortgage lenders, credit card companies, payday lenders, and debt collectors to ensure they follow fair practices.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
