Gov. Jay Inslee proposed new legislation on Thursday, which would make it a misdemeanor for elected leaders or candidates to spread unfounded allegations of voter fraud. Speaking on the one-year anniversary of the now-infamous U.S. Capitol riot, Inslee opined that “the threat to our democracy is just as dangerous on January 6, 2022, as it was a year ago.” [Snip] That has Inslee pushing for a bill in the state Legislature that would “make it a gross misdemeanor to lie about these election results without any basis.”

Fortunately, Jay Inslee has been invested with the Divine authority to determine truth from falsehood. Right, Jay? You pathetic fraud!

The leftists lose discussions because they are WRONG, because everything they say is lies. So, they must try to shut up anyone who disagrees with them, anyone who tells the truth. They are afraid of the truth.

The lefties will defend him by saying lying is not protected by the 1st Amendment and cite the yelling of fire in a crowded theater example. They will be the deciders of what is truth and what isn't.

Yes, it is a lie that the election was clean and wasn't blatantly stolen right in front of our faces. Inslee should be charged with spreading unfounded misinformation.

What is free speech for if not questioning the legitimacy of the leadership? What are anti-fraud mechanisms in the election for, if not to investigate possible wrong-doing? Inslee is a totalitarian and too dopey to know

Sooo...Inslee, will it be a crime to CLAIM that someones comments are unfounded, "Have no basis", when there IS a basis? They state that basis, have hundreds of sworn affidavits attesting to that basis, 240 celltracks of people ,often on camera, making multiple drops to ballot boxes in the middle of the night when the LAW requires that IF they were eligible to drop ANY ballots the number is ONE? When that basis is 37,000 people who cast votes in a district where THEY had filed a federal Govt. "Change of address" testifying that they no longer lived in? 10,000 of whom filed a change of address to a different STATE?, and have now solidified that migration by registering to vote there...rather than in their prior state where they cast votes AFTER filing the change of address? How about this Gov, YOU get solid verifiable answers to those questions, and ANY questions anyone makes regarding election issues FIRST before you try to criminalize, penalize and erase their Freedom of Speech.

Most Americans today have a romanticized (and extraordinarily narrow) historical understanding of the conflict that we call the Civil War. In their imaginations, it goes something like this: With passions inflamed by a moral renaissance in the North regarding the institution of slavery in the South, the two sides decided to go to war over the issue. In the end, the evil South was righteously razed by the armies of the North, and thus, slavery was ended, and the former slaves made American citizens, as Abraham Lincoln intended.

I live in the Fort Worth area and one of the places that I enjoy going for some great comfort food is the West Side Cafe. It has some great fluffy western omelettes and wonderful chicken fried steak. But truly, everything is good there. It was hard to get a better breakfast than one of their omelettes, their sausage, and their thick, but wonderful rye bread. They source very good products. But a couple of months ago, I ordered the rye bread and they said it was out — that it was a supply chain issue. It hasn’t come back. I thought, “Dang, Brandon even got my rye bread!”

President Biden on Tuesday branded the Capitol riot a “coup” attempt and called on the Senate to scrap its usual 60-vote threshold to pass a pair of election reform bills—but his message was clouded by distracting gaffes. Biden’s sharpened attack on former President Donald Trump and his supporters was bracketed by Biden once again referring to Vice President Kamala Harris as “President Harris” and by his assertion that he was arrested multiple times while fighting for civil rights.(Snip)His 2007 autobiography “Promises to Keep” describes no such arrests. In 2020, Biden infamously claimed he “had the great honor of being arrested” in South Africa when he was

Getting Britain’s homes insulated is the cornerstone of the Government’s green energy policy and an obsession for road-blocking eco-protesters. But the scale of damp-related problems linked to cavity wall insulation is so serious that an MP is calling for an independent inquiry to improve protection for householders. One expert has estimated that up to two million homes may have problems as a result of insulation being pumped into the cavity between outside and inside walls. In some extreme cases, the resulting problems of damp and mould inside the house have rendered properties worthless and unsellable.(Snip)Fixing cavity wall insulation disasters can cost tens of thousands of pounds.

The White House said Tuesday it will provide $308 million in new humanitarian aid for Afghanistan, as the country teeters toward a full-scale humanitarian crisis and economic collapse under the Taliban. In addition, the U.S. will send 1 million additional COVID-19 tests to the country, which has been in a tailspin since the Taliban government took over following the U.S. military withdrawal in August. The new assistance will come from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and flow through independent humanitarian organizations, White House spokeswoman Emily Horne said in a statement. It will be used to provide shelter, health care services, winterization assistance, emergency food, aid, water,
