I admire everyone who rode their bikes yesterday. You are made of hardy stuff.

  • I am in favor of removing as much parking as possible. Block 46 of Sylvester’s Plat in Olympia seems like a good place.
  • The brutally of the Amazon warehouses.
  • Pedestrianize for the World Cup. And more?
  • NPI’s Spring Gala is coming up.
  • 3 of the Spokane 9 are going to trial.

    IMF reduced its GDP growth forecast for advanced, energy-exporting economies like the US by only about 0.1%.

    See the last column graph at this IMF link.

    And even in the most “severe scenario” forecast (the next-higher column graph) by the IMF, 2026 global GDP will still increase 2.0%.

    Europe chose to protect Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas. Something had to give, and now it’s giving.

    A top Democrat running for an open congressional seat in Utah has authored a slew of offensive posts on internet forums, denigrating Mormons and making crass jokes about women and sexual assault.

    Here’s just a sampling of the posts written more than a decade ago by Utah state Sen. @NateForUtah:

    – Blouin recommended buying a GoPro camera “for filming porn with your underage sister.”

    – Blouin repeatedly referred to people as “cunts,” used the word “retarded” and threatened to “skull fuck” someone.

    – Blouin described the Church of the Latter-day Saints as “a bunch of bigoted assholes” with an “ideology fostering ignorance and intolerance.”

    – Blouin called Mormons the worst part of living in Utah and wrote that the “LDS church is DEFINITELY just a front for the largest US drug cartel.”

    – Blouin said an LDS missionary visiting his house had inadvertently seen a pornographic image he was viewing.

    – Blouin also said he “took a shit in the corner of an LDS church parking lot.”

    Others in the race condemned Blouin’s statements, with two — Salt Lake City Councilmember Eva Lopez Chavez and Michael Farrell — saying he should drop out.

    Lopez Chavez said the comments showed poor judgment, “particularly on issues impacting women’s physical safety and the reality of sexual violence,” and he should withdraw from the race.

    “Our communities deserve leaders who take these issues seriously — not just in rhetoric, but in conduct,” she said. “We cannot excuse behavior — past or present — that trivializes or undermines the seriousness of sexual violence, assault, and harassment.”

    Especially when he’s having a very unsuccessful day.

    The AP report (via PBS) is dated Feb 27th.
    We started bombing the girl’s schools the next day.

    The report references specifically the sites that the administration publicly declared “obliterated” six months earlier in sudden, and unprovoked bombing attacks by U.S. and IDF forces.

    So as the bombers were in the air heading to Iran for another round of sneak attacks the AP reports that the administration carrying out the bombing is unable to inspect some sites they bombed previously.

    Yes. That’s a violation of the previous agreement.

    Irrelevant since the increased minimum wage is not covering the loss of APTC for health insurance cut by Republicans to pay for billionaire tax cuts, much less the costs of illegal tariffs imposed by the Insane Failing Cult Leader in an extortion scheme.

    Swalwell and McCarthy were not friends.

    JON KARL, ABC NEWS: We don’t have much time left, but I wanted to ask about the allegations against Eric Swalwell, which have not been independently confirmed by ABC. He’s denied them all, but there are serious sexual misconduct allegations. And now you have an army of Democrats abandoning his campaign for governor. He was the leading Democratic candidate for governor, and now he’s facing calls to drop out from people like Nancy Pelosi.
    KEVIN MCCARTHY: Listen, let me be very clear. I tried to get rid of Swalwell six, eight years ago when I got the briefing, when I became leader with the FBI. Nancy Pelosi was in the room. I turned to her and said, “How can you keep him on Intel?” Intel is a select committee that only the leaders put people on, where you know all the secrets that other members do not. But I made a motion-

    JON KARL: About sexual misconduct allegations, or-

    KEVIN MCCARTHY: It was a combination with the Chinese spy, and it led to all that.

    Every member in Congress knows not to let any young staffer get around Eric Swalwell or Matt Gaetz. It’s not a secret. There’s a reason why you didn’t want those two people around. He was the leading candidate for governor. He probably could have won the primary and gotten there, but this all came forward. And these young women deserve justice.

    Kudos for mentioning Gaetz in the same breath.

    Democrats will double down on Piker in 2028.

    I can wait.

    Wait no longer..

    I find some of his answers compelling and others less so. The comparison of liberal Zionists to Nazis, for instance, is repugnant and not much improved by Piker clarifying that he opposes ethnostates. What made the Nazis notable wasn’t their support for an ethnostate. Ethnostates are common. What made the Nazis notable was their effort to exterminate the Jewish people. And Piker’s assertion that his opposition is to all “reactionary ideology” is hard to square with his admiration for Hezbollah.

    But to focus only on those comments is to miss much else that Piker has said and believes. He has also said: “From pogroms to the Holocaust, Jews have always been singled out by those in power as a scapegoat for the instability and economic volatility that people in power caused. A resilient, nascent antisemitism is a constant threat.” He has called antisemitism “gross,” “immoral” and “a hate crime.” He has promoted Jon Ossoff, a Democratic senator from Georgia who is Jewish, as a 2028 presidential possibility. In previous presidential primaries, Piker supported Bernie Sanders, who is also Jewish. It is an unusual form of Jew hatred that calls out antisemitism and promotes Jewish Americans for the presidency.

    I have deep disagreements with Piker, but he isn’t a “Jew hater.” He’s an anti-Zionist.

    http://archive.today/2026.04.1.....crats.html

    Piker is today’s Michael Moore, . A convenient attack vector for the kreepee always wrong wingers. I remember when a troll babbled here that it was such an outrage that Amy Carter invited Moore to sit in the Carter’s suite at the DNC. I responded that the Nick Fuentes types were in force at the RNC but nobody knew who were they were then (the internet was much younger). Idiot trolls envied Moore’s success.

    Pike is a streamer and has gotten where he is being a loudmouth and dropping the occasional edgy soundbite and crossing a line with a lot of folks. That’s how you get noticed in that world.

    He’s been lying about his military record since before his discharge.

    He’s claimed to have served in a Special Forces unit. In fact he flunked out of SFAS (Special Forces Assessment and Selection) in 2002.

    He received a recommendation for a Bronze Star under false pretenses and based upon false testimony. He was not even present at the events described in his recommendation.

    Among his private military contractor colleagues he often claimed to have been a “Ranger”. He never attended Ranger school, much less served in any Ranger battalion.

    He was forced out of his employment with military contractors when he was unable to produce any documentation supporting his service claims on his CV and resume.

    He misappropriated campaign funds for his personal use including using campaign donations to pay for luxury hotel suites in Las Vegas, room service alcohol fueled parties and of course hookers.

    He used his elected office to secure contracts for his private company.

    He lied repeatedly on federal campaign financial disclosures.

    Unrelated to his restraining order, in 2025 he beat the shit out of a woman and threw her into the street from his DC apartment.

    He hired prostitutes to a charity event in Tiblisi Georgia connected to an Afghan rescue charity he sponsored with charity funds.

    His weapons supply company made most of its revenues selling hand grenades to non-state actors involved in conflicts in the Middle East, particularly Saudi affiliated groups focused on attacking civilians in Yemen.

    After extracting profits and bonuses from the contracts he left suppliers unpaid and declared bankruptcy, leaving him with personal and business debts that vastly surpass his assets.

    He attempted to defraud the federal government of COVID relief funds.

    He used the gains from his failed and illegal business operations to fund large donations to Republican MAGA PACs to buy his MAGA GOP candidacy.

    He beat the shit out of a foreign national during a drunken weekend abroad watching a college football game.

    Since the beginning of 2026 in preparation for his midterm campaign he has been soliciting foreign funds from the Syrian government conveyed to him through American cutouts. Always America Last with these MAGA chuds.

This Magnificent Space will allow them to carry out their vital duties as the Leader of our Nation. Furthermore, the Ballroom, which is being constructed on budget and ahead of schedule, is needed now. Almost all material necessary for its construction is being built and/or on its way to the site, ready for installation and erection. Much of it has already been paid for, costing Hundreds of Millions of Dollars. If somebody, especially one with no standing, had a complaint — Why wasn’t it filed many months earlier, long before Construction was started? The Public Record was open for all to see. Everybody knew that it was planned, and going to be built. This highly political Judge, and his illegal overreach, is out of control, and costing our Nation greatly.
    This is a mockery to our Court System! The Ballroom is deeply important to our National Security, and no Judge can be allowed to stop this Historic and Militarily Imperative Project. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

    NEW YORK, April 1 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump this week told countries struggling to get jet ​fuel due to Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz to buy from the U.S., but analysts say there is ‌a major problem with his advice: the U.S. can’t cover the global shortfall. “We have plenty,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Tuesday. [But] U.S. government data shows that’s not the case. … “It is very, very, very unlikely ⁠that the U.S. can replace the Strait of Hormuz supply,” Kpler analyst Matt Smith said.

    Where did Donnie store it all? In the basement of a pizza parlor?

    Based on developments in early 2026, the United States is not storing more oil in response to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz; instead, it is actively releasing oil from its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to address rising energy prices caused by the disruption.
    East Daley
    East Daley
    +4
    Here are the key points regarding US oil storage and the Strait of Hormuz closure:
    Massive SPR Release: Following the disruption in the Strait of Hormuz—a crucial shipping route where Iran cut off substantial oil exports in response to conflict with the US—the United States is releasing roughly 172 million barrels from the SPR, which is roughly 43% of the total emergency release by the International Energy Agency (IEA).
    Storage Levels Dropping: As of mid-March 2026, the US SPR was already at a 60% capacity (415 million barrels), and this planned release will temporarily lower the reserves to about 243 million barrels, the lowest level since the early 1980s.
    Increased Exports: The closure of the Strait has actually created an urgent demand for US oil. U.S. crude exports are rising to support countries in Asia and Europe that are facing shortages, rather than being stored domestically.
    Price Impact: While the US is a net oil exporter, the closure of the Strait has caused global oil prices to surge, resulting in higher gasoline prices for Americans, triggering the release of the reserves to mitigate this impact.

    To be clear, borders existed before ICE. ICE is 23 years old. Immigration existed before ICE. This is not saying there should be no immigration system in the US, but this particular agency, which has ballooned to be one of the largest militaries in the world, and whose job is to go around the country scooping up our peaceful neighbors, has no role in a civilized society. The solution is to abolish them.

    Trump is not going to sign a bill to abolish them. So we need to be taking every step we can to limit their power, to rein them in, to ensure they are not wearing masks, to ensure that they’re showing identification, to ensure they’re banned from sensitive locations, to hold them accountable for any of the misdeeds that we’ve seen, and to ensure that they are not collaborating with our police departments.

    Yeah, the young don’t take kindly to fascist dictators or corrupt sellouts like him.

    CNN reported on Thursday that plans for Trump’s arch were presented to the Commission of Fine Arts …. “We had just under 1,000 commenters … 100% of the comments were against the project,” Commission Secretary Thomas Luebke told the outlet.

    @152 What the failed doctor isn’t mentioning is how many of the ships that aren’t transporting oil or LNG are transporting fertilizer and fertilizer components

    Yeah, all 60% of them… they’re headed this way for all that extra oil that we have. Oh my bad, just 8 of the 10, oh minus 1 because 1 of the 2 was cargo, times .5 because three of the 8 were on the bad side of The Gay of Hormuz and the good empty whom the crew figured they had enough napping.

    Math was my best subject in kindergarten. Clearly as English wasn’t my best subject.

    Method “Acting” ICE Director Todd Lyons fired.

    Lyons authored the secret memo ordering the ICE training center to instruct recruits to forcibly enter private homes and businesses without a warrant.

    By cutting him loose Mullin insulated himself from criminal liability for what went on before his arrival and leaves Lyons exposed and without legal support when he gets his first subpoenas next January.

    I have no clue about that, Nancy, and I don’t care.

    In other news, what is in those Epstein files must be quite juicy. Bondi was “hot to trot” to release the files, and then she STFU about it. Then she got canned. The Zionists have Trump – recorded – doing something very, very nasty.

    And he ain’t the only one with bad manners.

    Let’s get the entirety of the Epstein files released and go after these arrogant bastards. Let’s get them in orange jump suits in maximum security prisons. Fuck ‘em all!

    If you had Montana becoming the most trans friendly state in the country you won.

    In a 5-2 ruling Montana’s Supreme Court rules that the sex discrimination sections of the state constitution apply to trans people.

    And the opinion is very carefully written to apply only to Montana leaving a SCOTUS challenge impossible. The case was brought mostly to try to fuck with state Rep. Zooey Zephyr. They lost bigly.

    The national gasoline price average today is lower than Washington state’s gasoline price one year ago.

    The good news is that both prices are coming down. So I guess for Democrats it will be back to arguing that chicks with dicks are women.
