Yes, glad that Jeff has his foot in the door with KSQM. And if CCWatchdog could appear in more households. By the same token how many people in the county receive their news from other sources e.g. Next Door, gossip, Tik Tok whatever. Geez if it weren't for a Seattle TV station.

Ref: Lawsuit against the City of Sequim. I see the City caving to the big developer lawyers in one, one-hour executive, closed door meeting. It is too expensive to fight it, for a city armed with a small legal team and limited funds. It's called a shakedown or a bluff. "My lawyer is bigger than your lawyer." Squirm. Blink. Dig in. Good luck Kristina and your legal staff, the City of Sequim. I think I'll get out my Quija Board and Magic Eight Ball for this one.
This was definitely my first reaction as the timing of Cle Elum and the Moratorium, seemingly joint events. But now I scratch my head and ask Who are all the players and what skin do they have in the game? I'd like to see the "Lineup" card from the City of Sequim. What is the political clout - Gov has been here twice in last few months? Dem Party? AG's office? Who are the deep pockets bankrolling this showdown? Seattle and King county through their attorney have been going full tilt at all covenant areas which restricted the sale of property to minorities and religious groups. Perhaps the next agenda targets are here in Sequim - two back to back very Prime properties -from 101 down Whitefeather Way and let's include as number 2, the Marina. To me this frames the legal battle entirely differently from the Cle Elum issue. And for the deep pockets bankrolling this case, a million four hundred dollar bill from the builder is "chump change".
Great work getting the interview gig on the local radio station Jeff Tozzer~!
It is exceedingly rare for a top tier international underwear model to also possess such a wonderful voice and especially face that SO well exceeds the basic requirements for radio~! Ha Ha Ha Ha!!! :) Is that Hollywood I hear knocking~? I am not at all surprised that the local police tried to bury that vicious attack on The Olympic Discovery Trail, as I am more than aware that this is not the first time these morons have exposed the entire community to deadly risks. I bet these same idiots who kept us from knowing about the attack, told THEIR families to be safe~! Of course, the local "bird cage liner" of the Peninsula Daily News intentionally failed to mention a single word about it, until a Seattle news outlet broke the news~! Now, some 4 months later, after exposing countless local residents and tourists visiting our community who used that trail to risks that they were kept from knowing about, we finally learned about it over the past few days~! Protect and serve? Local news outlets that inform us about important matters? HA~! Nuts~! This sure does make me wonder exactly what else these fools are hiding from us~! I do hope that the good folks of our community remember this conspiracy to deprive us of the news that helps us and our friends & family stay safe, the next time the local newspaper and/or the police are again begging for more & more money~! I have always supported the GOOD police; however, we very clearly need to remove the police managers and everyone else who played a role in keeping the good folks of our community in the dark about these very serious attacks~! I remember when the news came out that our local news outlets had been sold to a Canadian company and that was clearly a "red flag" warning that our local media was definitely NOT going to improve~! The one thing that we definitely do not need, is having our news constantly controlled by a foreign company and/or country~!!! Maybe we should demand that ALL radio, print, and TV stations within the US remain under the strict ownership and control of AMERICAN people~? Ya think~? We should also prohibit our media and news outlets from being "collected" by mega companies and/or Individuals, because Americans are FAR better off when there is diversity in the news and media programming~!!! What ever happened to "The Sherman Anti-Trust Act"~? Anyway, great work as usual for The Watchdog and it is encouraging to see that "we" are revealing things that the nefarious criminally minded clown show doesn't want folks to know about~! Sincerely, Mike
There were high hopes among alot of us that the Sequim City government would kill the Seabrook project for many good reasons....among them is the current infrastucture in the City could not handle the increase in population...to say nothing of route 101 which isnt going to grow in the foreseeable future. It is also my understanding that the Wayne property was zoned for a resort development, which a Seabrook type development clearly not. Now we're being told that the City is afraid to deny a development that the citizens of the City DO NOT want for a variety of legitament reasons. Let's hire some decent lawyers and fight the developers. And while we're at it...let's get a new slate of City.elected officials that know what they are doing.
I’m sure the homeless camp fires in Oregon were no surprise. The potential, for the same problems here, is obvious. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could get better forest management here. Using timber for jobs and housing makes much more sense than seeing it go up in smoke. Maybe we could actually get some of the industry back here instead of continuing to buy it from Canada.
The same day I read about the hiting of the highly left-wing, and pricey, new head of the Trails Coalition, I recevied a fundaraising letter from them asking for donations so they could "keep up the important work." An amazing coincidence, no? Made good food for the shredder ...
From the linked article: "Regardless of whether it’s determined that a homeless man did this or a squatter, it doesn’t really matter." Would it matter if this fire was started by an arsonist or someone tossing a cigarette out their car window? I'm guessing they'd be going after that person. Talk about a double standard.
His assertion is that it's one, or the other. That's what his investigation shows and he couples this with the pushback he's getting from elected officials won't hear of it, and even going to the point of calling homeless people "off-the-grid neighborhood." More trickery from elected officials and activists who refuse to acknowledge realities. That's the bigger message, IMO.
Reading about hiring the FIRST Executive Director for the Olympic Discovery Trail at such a high salary FOR A TRAIL caught my senses. Why now, in fact why at all? And why someone who “has openly emphasized working closely with tribes as a priority” Where is this going? It lead to Energy Technology Innovation Partnershi Project (ETIPP) and (wait for it) MO MONEY, MORE GRANTS! I’m highly suspicious of where this is going. Maybe I’m just being paranoid.
SOUTHEAST SUSTAINABILITY DIRECTORS NETWORK Interim Executive Director Ann Livingston has accepted an executive director position for another non-profit and will be relocating to Washington state, where she will continue to collaborate with local governments and Tribal entities. We are so grateful for the many years of dedication to SSDN Ann has given in various capacities and wish her all the best in her new endeavor. Ann’s last day with SSDN will be Sept. 26, 2025.

The Energy Technology Innovation Partnership Project (ETIPP) is a partnership between the U.S. Department of Energy, four National Labs led by the National Renewable Energy Lab, and regional partner organizations including,,,,,,ta dah SSDN
The program has two “tracks”. For communities who do not have a Strategic Energy Plan (SEP), the program offers four to six months of SUPPORT to help develop one, including working with local stakeholders, followed by an additional eight to twelve months of SUPPORT for in-depth technical assistance on SPECIFIC PROJECTS identified in the plan. For communities who do have an SEP, the program offers 12 to 18 months of SUPPORT for a “deep dive” into SPECIFIC PROJECTS identified in that plan. Examples of previous projects SUPPORTED by ETIPP include:
• Working with the Makah Tribe in Washington state on a strategic energy plan to SUPPORT long-term ENERGY SOVEREIGNTY, as well as improving energy resilience in the face of frequent hours- to days-long power outages
Wouldn't it be nice if we had this level of emphasis on completing Towne Road? Or correcting the dangerous intersection on Old Olympic Highway and Cays Road? Or raising Three Crabs Road so residents aren't stranded during winter storms? It's all about priorities.
Jeff it certainly would. Wouldn't it be nice to get rid of the pizza, poet laureate, and other useless projects and hire a grant writer? Many of the same grants to the Tribes are also available to us. They just know how to do it, we don't (or won't).
I am glad to see Jeff, in a position of radio media. Any position.
The tribal "compensation mechanism" is destroying our local government.
I hope Jeff gets more airtime and increases his audience.
Imagine, having local radio media as a platform for truth. No more paid for lies...paid for truth..Paid for Kimmel's and bits..
Indivisible Sequim is anti American communist doctrine. Just like the Clallam County Commissioners they hate the truth and hate opposition even worse.
As we can clearly see tribes have become spoiled by free $$$ and entitlements no matter how much $$$ they have in their coffers they want more and more and where is the oversight for expenses probably none just do whatever with free $$$.Fed govt doge needs to do audits before just handing out free tax $$$ so freely,somebody had to work for this free $$$.When tribes own golf courses,restaurants,gas stations,casino's,retail buisinesses,ect ect ect they are self sufficient and need no more free $$$.Free loaders are abusing tax $$$ and should be cut off.

Wow.
We are kept in the dark.
Makes me “think” the discovery trail is more than just a “hiking trail”.
Anyone hear of the “Darian Gap”?
Look it up.. see the similarities?
If *Bodies & *Supplies were going to come into WA State.. they could move about freely throughout the discovery trail.
My sons car was broken into while he and my 2 year-old granddaughter were hiking.
Only to come back to a shattered window and items taken.
The Sheriff’s office found most of the stolen goods.
Get this, they “The Sheriff” department, came to our house to return the property.
Now hold the phone… 💥
Why, I repeat Why, did he not have to go to the Sheriff or Police department to “Identify” his *alleged belongings!???
Some items were not his that were placed in the back pack.
There was another item stolen that was later recovered.
A smashed window and fear factor is what my son and his small daughter had to endure.
There was another car simultaneously broken into at the same time.
I think the Discovery Trail… well, perhaps there is something more to it.
💥
I am up for a part in the Strategy department.
Sign me up Tozzer.
PS.
Jeff, I flippen spaced out yesterday, I did not set my alarm on my phone, and FAILED turning into the radio!!!!😩
Pleassseeee, will you post it in here?
I cant find it anywhere.
🇺🇸🙏🏼💪🏼☺️

Another thing Jeff.
What happened to you on the trail.. terrible and not uncommon.
Terrible.
❤️
Dang! I missed Jeff T's radio debut. Was it recorded?
Isn't it grand, public hires make over $110k a year.
And,
I'm sure Alex Bees just needs a hug and another walk out the jail door.

Let’s be real here. If the trails coalition has 100k PLUS BENEFITS to hire this gal, they certainly don’t need donations.
