Happy Friday, and we have a series of funnies today for your reading pleasure. Our feature is on Jay Inslee’s calendar from last week, where we can see that, once again, he barely put in a day’s worth of official work in exchange for a week’s worth of public pay. Also worth a few laughs … Continued
The crazy things that liberals say dominates Shift today. In our feature we take a look at the latest spin from Sound Transit – that the $54 billion dollar ST3 campaign is just a War on Cars. You know, the foul, #1 polluter that allows you to get to work, school, etc. We highlight another losing … Continued
Hump day finds the Shift team playing catch-up, and finding plenty of (hopefully) interesting items for our readers. We lead with a feature on the intra-mural battle of the “greens”, with the internal battles of the state’s Sierra Club chapter being played out in the media over the bad policy that is Initiative 732. Nothing … Continued
The weekend was full of news to catch up on, so Shift grabbed a few morsels you might have missed while cheering on the Seahawks, or Huskies, or Cougars, or even the last weekend of the Mariners until 2017. The lead item is a review of all the taxes you will get to pay if … Continued
General election ballots will be in the mail in three weeks, so Shift is stepping up its coverage of some of the people and issues you will be choosing from. Today we highlight the Left’s latest attempt to grab tax dollars for their favorite politicians, I-1464. And speaking of grabbing money, big labor is also … Continued
Recovery is almost complete here at Shift, from the debate double-header on Monday night. We’ve read the media analyses, listened to the talking heads, and reviewed the tape, and are left with this lingering question – why is it that two presidential candidates were allowed to interrupt, question, and generally interact with each other in … Continued
Team – Last week was one for highlighting liberal bullies – from the Teamsters trying to intimidate Eastern Washington elected officials for wanting to be open with their constituents, to Kshama Sawant trying to tell real economists how to do their job, to UNITE HERE trying to impose its will on Seattle hotels with an … Continued
It’s the day of the big debate – with Jay Inslee once again trying to defend his dismal first term “record” against Republican challenger Bill Bryant. Evidently there will also be a second debate on before the gubernatorial one, to get people warmed up, or something like that. So, while we know what we’ll be … Continued
Now that fall has officially started, the usual routine is setting in: the Mariners are slipping out of the playoff race, the Seahawks are stumbling against the Rams, and Sound Transit is making “mistakes.” Of course, as Shift highlights, those “mistakes” evidently don’t rise to the level of being called “violations” of state election law … Continued
Seattle labor unions are at it again, using a government initiative to fool voters into doing their dirty work for them. Today’s highlight is about how disinformation is driving a city of Seattle initiative aimed at trying to unionize hotels (in the name of safety). False info also led the Tacoma News Tribune to ask … Continued
Seattle City Council woman Kshama Sawant is back in the news today, and topping our Daily Shift, with her attacks on the academic team charged with studying the city’s $15 minimum wage law. Apparently former community college prof Sawant wants to make sure that more far-Left advocacy – and not actual data – is the … Continued
