Honored to have been a guest last night at the Washington State Council of Firefighters Annual Awards Banquet. These folks do the work helping community, responding to all things imaginable and defending collective bargaining rights as well. Dean, AJ, Nich and Rep Dan Bronoske. #WSCFF

Oldest nephew graduated high school today. Very proud of him and cannot wait to see what he does and where he goes in his life.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

Taking back our power starts now.

Last Wednesday on House of Origin cutoff at the Washington State legislature in Olympia.

That’s complicated.

Yesterday in Olympia. Week two of Legislative Session comes to a close.

Bora, our 20 year old sweet girl. #caturday

In solidarity with Starbucks Workers United at the 37th and Broadway store in Everett, Washington this morning. #thestrikebeforechristmas

I am particularly thrilled to have received Christmas cards from the President and Vice President. I know they send out tons of these, but it brought me a lot joy to receive these.

Really dude? This is your take on how our society works?
Ya know what? You’re right. Without YOU and CEOs nothing would work. Yup. So much truth there.

Oh Jeesh
Now I know this too

Dinasaurs in Hawaii!!!!

President Joe Biden issues pardon for son Hunter Biden The announcement came through on Sunday evening that he had pardoned Hunter Biden.

This makes me happy.

Because WHY NOT?!
If we can have a felon president that stacks the cabinet and everything else with douchebags and criminals, then Biden can pardon his son. Good for him and his son.

I will write out a list and send to you. Some folks haven’t migrated yet to Bluesky

Reorg is coming up for Washington state Dems and counties and LDs.
Who is running for what? Are you standing for a position?

I don’t think I can add folks to your starter pack but I have some good ideas

20 year old Charlie is leaving us today. He has been the best little snuggle pal imaginable. We are going to miss him so much. @lmtraynor.bsky.social

Same to you Greg

133 years ago today, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers was formed.
Joining the IBEW was the best decision I ever made in my life. Without that apprenticeship, I would not be where I am today. Over 800,00 members and going strong. #IBEW

Focusing on policy work in Washington State. Gotta make sure we keep moving forward here at least.

Why on earth did I wake up at 5am?!?
Well, good morning world. I hope you have a fantastic day!

You gotta clone account out there. Just an FYI

Office plants.

This sweet girl (20 years old) isn’t feeling too good and spent some time at the vet today. Hopefully the results will come back positively and she will get better. Until then, think happy thoughts about our sweet cat Bora.

Tough choice. So many are up there. This one right now.

Ok, it’s nearly three weeks post-election. Checking in on folks should be a habit we all do. So, you’re here… how are you doing? How have you been managing this?

In this day in 1971, “DB Cooper” hijacked a Boeing 727 (northwest orient airlines flight) and parachuting from the plane midflight before disappearing. He has never been caught nor identified. This story has always fascinated me. Who was this guy and what happened to him? 🤷🏼‍♂️

On this day in 1963, Doctor Who aired for the first time. I loved Doctor Who while I was coming up and still enjoy it to this day. Some eras were better than others but I honestly prefer Jon Pertwee the most. #doctorwho
