    Island County last week passed a sales tax increase to support low-cost housing.

    Island County commissioners unanimously passed a sales tax increase Tuesday aimed at creating new affordable housing in the community.

    The 0.1% sales tax, which means an extra 10 cents on a $100 purchase, will generate an estimated $1.1 million a year toward the program. The county’s overall sales tax is now 8.8%. Many other counties, including Skagit and Snohomish, have already adopted the tax.

    So, the poor will preferentially pay to support a sales tax increase aimed at assisting the poor.

    $1.1 million won’t do much if it’s used as cash. Probably do a lot more if it’s used as cash flow to support continuing payments on.a mortgage taken against a multifamily project. Probably go in the north end of the island if it’s intended to assist veterans.

    The funds will be used to create affordable housing units for people whose salaries are at or below 60% of median income for the county and who fit in one of several groups, including veterans, senior citizens, people with disabilities, domestic violence survivors and families with children at risk of homelessness.

    HA’s psychotic fuck thinks that Chris Rock will be too afraid to joke about what happened.

    Less than 24 hours after Smith slapped Rock for making a joke at his wife’s expense, ticket prices have spiked. [Excessively copied material deleted

    That’s like saying that Robin Williams was too afraid to talk about cocaine.

    God Bless G-clown. His spews provide cover for those who wonder aloud whether psychosis and homosexuality are genetically linked.

    @5 I guess we will have to wait and see if Chris Rock ever mentions Will Smith’s wife’s name again.

    Just because he’s selling out and in great demand doesn’t mean he’ll ever mention her name and make a joke about her. I never said that this would or wouldn’t propel his career. I said that, or inferred, that the action that is being applauded by you, is an action that will silence his act with respect to jokes about the women.

    And disappointing that you didn’t get add in there anything in reference to 14 year old penis, you dick.

    A first for yours truly:

    Former President Donald Trump continues to be praised on Russian state television almost as much as he’s regaled on Fox News, with state media now calling for regime change in the United States. “It is time for us, for our people, to call on the people of the United States to change the regime in the U.S. early,” Russian TV host Evgeny Popov said. “And to again help our partner Trump to become president,” he said.

    Apparently when MIT eliminated its SAT/ACT entry requirements, the matriculating The Even Bigger Fucking Morons of the world took notice, applied, and were accepted.

    MIT’s realization: Fuck that.

    After careful consideration, we have decided to reinstate our SAT/ACT requirement for future admissions cycles. Our research shows standardized tests help us better assess the academic preparedness of all applicants, and also help us identify socioeconomically disadvantaged students who lack access to advanced coursework or other enrichment opportunities that would otherwise demonstrate their readiness for MIT. We believe a requirement is more equitable and transparent than a test-optional policy.

    Stupid is stupid, and it’s not MIT’s fault.

    Imagine if the space shuttle were designed by rocket scientists The Even Bigger Fucking Moron and YLB. It would look like a cross between a dildo and a church offering plate.

    Come to think of it, the Starship Enterprise looks like 3 dildos and an offering plate.

    @ 12

    How fast is this shithead going under the bus?

    Not as fast as Katie Pass-Her-Around-Boys Hill, YLB. She didn’t make it 10 months.

    Cawthorn should skate through his primary and it’s a heavily GOP district, ya dumb twat.

    @18 Wikipedia lists the manufacturers as United Space Alliance (a joint venture of Rockwell and Lockheed), Thiokol/Alliant, Lockheed, Boeing, and Rockwell, so it appears just about everyone had their thumbs in that pie. It did fly; it didn’t always land again, that’s all.

    Holy shit, it would be so awesome if “dishonest harvard fat boy” desatanist was a regular at those..

    Yes, because there’s nothing a Florida governor, father of young children, and husband of a wife being treated for breast cancer has to do with his time other than be a regular attendee at Washington DC events.

    The unserious twat YLB has learned nothing from the reaming she received after her suggestion that a legislative flip in the VA House somehow has something to do with the US Senate.

    She’s a close second to The Even Bigger Fucking Moron in the perpetual running for HA’s most stupid commenter.

    “President Joe Biden has said he won’t interfere in the independence of the Justice Department. Early on in his presidency, Biden decided to keep in office US Attorney David Weiss, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, to continue to oversee the investigation in Delaware” of Hunter Biden.

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/30/politics/hunter-biden-federal-investigation-heats-up/index.html

    Yes, there’s a massive difference between this president and the last one regarding investigations and legal matters.

    Bob loves to change the topic when it comes to Russia and The FuckHump.

    Long live Russia!! Long live Putin! Long Live China! Toss a spear and grenade at LEO!

    Nice delusional way to describe a POS. Putin knows it. Long live Russia!

    3 dildos and an offering plate helped spawn The Original Series, The Animated Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, Discovery, Short Treks, Picard, Lower Decks and 13 movies so far, so it wasn’t too bad a design.

    And yet, republicans want to get rid of Social Security, Medicaid. They want more tax cuts to the 1% and raise taxes on the rest of us. They want to put 11 year old girls who get an abortion to death and outlaw contraception, interracial and gay marriage. They want to burn books with any concept that offends them.

    Just donated $125 to Warnock Campaign……Ggggeeeeee Money! gives free money!……true Freedom! Not like stingy fuck Repukes!

    Yesterday’s news included an inverted yield curve in the US bond market. 2024 will be a cakewalk for the GOP if Democrats add The Biden Recession to The Biden Inflation and The Biden Afghanistan Disgrace. Oh, and then there’s The WuhanBiden Virus – you know, the one he promised to shut down and didn’t.

    I guess nobody had “Cocaine Orgies” on their 2022 midterm bingo card.

    But when you build your entire movement around zealotry, there are bound to be a few witch burnings.

    I’m in heaven watching this shit.
    Burn, baby burn.

    26,
    There he is timing again.

    Hang on to your Kruggerrands. Degen is coming for them.

    25,
    Good for you, G-man!

    Thank you! A hold in the Senate will destroy the Republican party in our lifetimes! You are making it happen.

    Hunter Biden does. It’s what he uses to stoke his artistic creativity, rather than a muse.

    Momala’s numbers are approaching Pelosi’s.

    Favorability Ratings: U.S. Political Leaders
    Favorable Unfavorable Spread
    Joe Biden 43.3 51.8 -8.5
    Kamala Harris 37.5 51.0 -13.5
    Donald Trump 44.9 50.4 -5.5
    Nancy Pelosi 36.0 55.4 -19.4

    Just think, libbies. Pretty soon RCP will be adding back Hillary Clinton to this list.

  33. 33

    Manchin is “yes” and Collins is “yes”.

    KBJ is done and confirmed.

    Leaving Degen and other aggrieved Trumpaloompas burnt and yearning to turn against their own.

    Awesome!

    @ 33

    Manchin is “yes” and Collins is “yes”.
    …
    Awesome!

    Pro tip: When you feel the need to celebrate a senator’s decision to confirm a nominee offered up by a president in that senator’s own party, something is seriously wrong with that president.

    Feel free to use this quote against me when President DeSantis is nominating his cabinet in 2025.

    I did not write that there was not precedent.

    I wrote that because there is precedent, you should know better, asswipe.

    @ 34

    YLB has provided us with so many looks “under the hood” that we have no doubts that she’s a woman.

  40. 40

    @24 “They want to burn books with any concept that offends them.”

    Technically this is correct. If a book offends them, they want to burn it. But as they haven’t read the books they want to burn, there’s little or no correlation between what’s in the book and whether they’re offended by the book. Usually they just go on what they’ve heard from some unreliable third- or fourth-hand source.

  42. 42

    @35 It’s about time Collins left the GOP. Like Manchin, she won’t be the most reliable Democrat in the Senate, but her leaving the GOP is understandable in that the Trump Sedition Party is no longer a completely comfortable berth for her. By the way, where did you hear she flipped to the Democrats? I haven’t seen that anywhere else, and can’t verify it.

  43. 43

    @38 “The GOP states need to play by the same rules.”

    This is like Putin saying Ukrainians are shooting at Russians, so Russians need to shoot back.

  44. 44

    First NYT, and now WaPo and CNN:

    Benny
    @bennyjohnson
    “It seems pretty clear that Hunter Biden was trading on his father’s name to make a lot of money.”

    I never thought I would hear this on CNN
    CNN: Hunter was making millions off his father’s name
    From
    RNC Research
    8:32 AM · Mar 30, 2022·

    That statement came out of the mouth of CNN’s John Harwood, who is no friend to the right.

    WaPo is out with its own story today.

    What we may be seeing is multiple news sources dropping evidence of Hunter Biden’s corruption so that when the DOJ drops the hammer on him, it will be “old news” and it might insulate the equally corrupt father.

    We’ll see how well that works after a new Congress is seated. My guess is not very.

  45. 45

    What we may be seeing is multiple news sources dropping evidence of…

    92% fabricated Republican campaign smear.

    I mean, it’ll give Gym something to do until 2024.
    But it will not look “noble” or “just” or “anti-corruption”.

  46. 46

    @ 45

    From Russian disinformation to “fabricated Republican campaign smear”.

    To indictment.

    I can wait.

    “It seems pretty clear that Hunter Biden was trading on his father’s name to make a lot of money.”

    Heh… widbee kreepshit is so triggered by the thought of “dishonest harvard fat boy” DeSatanist attending “sexual get togethers”… in kawthorn klown’s district..

    not DC dumbshit..

    shouldn’t rule out DC.. anythin’s possible.

    And why not “sexual get togethers in FL”? see pedo Gaetz and its fellow “sugar daddies”.. Someone kawthorn klown clearly “looked up to”…

    yawwwnn.. snowflake troll triggered.. mission accomplished…

  49. 49

    And according to KBJ, neither should nonviolent pedos.

    Judge: Nonviolent Jan. 6 defendants shouldn’t get ‘serious jail time’

    “It does feel like the government has had two standards here….[excessively copied material deleted]

    The vast J6 majority will get probation. As they should.

  51. 51

    I can wait.

    No, you cannot wait. You’re fast running out of time and you’re too fucking stupid to know it.

  52. 52

    @44 Which makes his father guilty of nothing. Hunter? Do what you like with him, I don’t care.

    As for “the equally corrupt father,” what’s your evidence? All I see is steam blowing out of your ass.
