Matt Shea is a real piece of shit. We all knew that, of course. We have read the reporting in The Guardian and listened to Bundyville. As well as other local reporting. Still and all, it’s good that the state’s independent investigation confirmed it.

It’s finally impeachment day. Please if you haven’t already, call or write your member of Congress. The more they hear from you the better.

Also, thanks to everyone who has written. Thank you so, so much to who attended a rally yesterday; Being around you all Downtown and seeing pictures from all over the country lifted my spirit in ways I didn’t know I needed.

I am glad that the House of Representatives is going to impeach President Trump. There are so many impeachable crimes that he has committed, boiling it down to just a couple articles. It leaves a lot off the table. Still. Thanks to all of the people voting for it.

Hey, now would be an excellent time to call your member of Congress and ask them to impeachment President Trump. If you are represented by a Republican, let them know. If you are represented by a Trumpy Republican, let them know.

We’re living in extraordinary times of peril and destiny. And that calls for a drink! Please join us this evening for our weekly meeting of the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally. It’ll be memorable.

We meet every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. Look for us in the back room of the pub beginning about 8pm.

Somewhat inexplicable to me, some far left critics of Pete Buttigieg have decided that he was working for the CIA. And while he is not my candidate by a long shot, I kind of have to defend him.

There are 2 parts to this. First he worked for a consulting firm that had an NDA. I don’t know enough about the specific firm, but in general NDA’s are bad, but they’re the company, not the employee, who impose them.

The second thing is that he went to Somalia once: A thing that we only know about because he literally wrote about it in the New York Times. Now, I am also not an expert on CIA procedures but it strikes me that this is probably not how they operate:

1) Send a couple people into a country for one (1) day.

2) Meet with officials publicly.

3) Go to the marketplace.

4) Unspecified crimes.

5) Go check out ancient caves.

6) Write about it in an article that’s very critical of US foreign policy including quoting people calling it corrupt.

7) Run for President the first election it’s Constitutionally possible.

Seems like he would keep a lower profile.

But the serious thing I want to say is this: If you see someone promoting this nonsense uncritically, they are a bad source of information; Not just on this specific thing, but going forward.
