A wing of the party tried to take over leadership of it, and wanted to endorse him. Instead they nominated an actual libertarian who's been pretty good

(as someone incapable of seeing obvious jokes, sorry if this was one...)

Kinda? It's when you present an argument you don't necessarily agree with, but do so in earnest using the best arguments you can.

1) the popo rarely investigates car theft, burglaries, identity theft, rape kits sit languishing. etc. 2) crime rates are massively lower than the 80s, but budgets are massively higher? 3) Cities bury huge taxpayer funded brutality settlements. 4) Councils have no control. The math isn’t mathing.

Nearly 400 Seattle cops made over $200k in 2024 With 23 percent raises and backpay, a lot of awful cops got awful rich in 2024. Sleeping Sergeant Paige Maks raked in half a million, while prolific offender Zsolt Dornay took in nearly $360,000.

76 Seattle police officers made over 300k

They finally reported. Was ~59% orange last year, was ~56% red this year. I'd attribute that 3% slip to "orange man not on ballot" before I'd attribute it to any electoral shift

Didn't look like the county I grew up in had reported yet... But it had been moving right since I graduated high school..love to know if that ever slows down

I was gonna suggest Jason Fensky as someone who might be able to connect you, but he doesn't seem to have a blusky account, just Twitter and Instagram

Has to be rough on parents checking their kids candy for weed gummies to realize it’s a made up moral panic and also they don’t get any free weed gummies

The completely hilarious hypo would be if Texas also goes blue because they pushed too close to the edge and the election cycle tilt pushed them all over... (and then CA+VA+etc went further)

It's actually really fucked to sell a pet feeder that doesn't even have the schedule stored on the device.

Oh so they nuke Virginia and thousands of animals around the world just starve? That was your plan here?
