Thanks for the article Jeff. I didn't know that I was being endorsed or opposed by any groups. To be clear, the Republican party never contacted me, the Democratic party never contacted me, Indivisible Sequim never contacted me, the Fire Commissioner position is non-partisan, and I don't belong to any party.
I appreciate you speaking up on this matter. Your interview with Jeff was as even keeled as I could imagine. No hint of partisanship. Simply matter of fact information that was valuable for every citizen to consider. For me, a breath of fresh air in this caustic partisanship environment national politics has us whipped into.
It sadly leaves me with the perception that Sequim Indivisible's litmus test is contempt based. Sequim Indivisible's tantrums make it appear to be a corrosive based entity who can't discern the difference between national and local matters. As such they are not a healthy and supportive entity for the citizens of Clallam County.
I'm sad for this fine county and the people who live here being controlled by national narratives. We need more people like you who are here to serve the people, not a cause.
You have my unequivocal vote not because of anything more than my impression is that you are doing a fine job for the position you are running for. What more can we ask for?
This same thing goes on at Sequim High School. Most if not all of the teachers provide a list of “non partisan” media resources that their students can use for researching papers. Except that it looks exactly like the League of Women Voters idea of “non partisan”. Only one side represented.
LWV members Patrice Johnston and Susan Fisch are leading the mock trial team at SHS. I have serious doubts that any critical thinking is being taught there.
Brainwashing is occuring. People don’t realize they are until they happen to question their thoughts. Even then it may be hard to break free from the brainwashing cycle. Young people are beginning to see the lies & deception, Charlie Kirk helped them out of their fog chambers.
The approved media resources is straight of Orwell's 1984. Happening right in plain sight at public high schools throughout this state and probably many others. Spurred on by infiltrators like the LVW into the schools under the guise of debate training.
I actually think the LWV hand a direct hand in helping the teachers develop the list of media resources allowed for use in research papers at SHS. My daughter was admonished several times for daring to use sources outside the approved list.
Sad, what a missed opportunity for those students. Also, who may we thank for approving the League of Women Voters access to students? I can see it now, LWV all decked out in gardening gloves,hands around the necks of HS students(figuratively)as they explain the virtues of the two party system in a frank and unbiased representation. Snakes, the hiss, the pit and all!
Our community members need to know what kind of derelicts are creeping around. It isn’t fear mongering when it’s the truth. Thank you Jeff for shining a light on these very serious issues. A couple w/ 7 kids in tow clearly seemed non threatening, but as we all learned HERE on CCWatchdog, looks are deceiving & compassion may get you stabbed & thrown from your vehicle
I would readily admit DJT is a bit of a blunt instrument and not lacking in ego. That said, I have never witnessed in my entire senior life span such an amazing and hard working git-r-done President. The guy puts the Eveready bunny to shame. It's easy to dislike his personality, but his accomplishments are undeniably unprecedented. So this Trump Derangement Syndrome exists, but with no acknowledgement for his undeniable competency. Where our country might be today with Biden or Harris at the helm is a nightmare I'm ecstatic to not have. If the same shit different hats Lemmings would just put their face diapers back on and line up for mandatory injections our country would be much better off. I recall fruitlessly searching for the CCW booth at the County fair and seeing a Democrat Party booth manned by a fool with a hat saying Trump is a pedophile. The derangement part of TDS is sadly very real. Non-partisan ?
Thank you Jeff for sharing this information. I is amazing watching how the communist's/Socialists take over everything. I am always amazed at the stupidity of the GROUP THINK that occurs. It's like a bunch of Junior High School kids trying to be in with the "POPULAR KIDS". Just amazing that supposedly grown adults act that way.
I am glad you shared the endorsement lists, I know who I am not voting for. They made that a whole lot easier. Just the FACTS, not the LIES!
For context: I’m Jeff Tozzer, founder of CCWatchdog.com, a site dedicated to transparency in local government. Of our 3,452 subscribers, 512,000 website visits every 90 days, and 905,000 podcast downloads since May, I wouldn’t call any consumer a “devotee.” These are critical thinkers — Democrats, Republicans, Independents — who care about facts, not faction. ---- Woot Woot --- HUGE THANK YOU JEFF for giving us free thinkers a voice.
Kirstin, Thank you for that quote. Jeff has done and does sacrifice much, without complaint, as compared to any other news or our so called paid leaders do. Paid leaders instead play on our time and money. Jeff does not ask for either. Says a lot.
I love the "Thriller" song! And the ode to the Vincent Price trademark. Great article, Jeff, as always. Thank you for shedding sunlight on the real ambitions of LWV and Sequim Indivisible. A lot to process, but we need to know these very important issues before we vote. Congratulations on your podcast and substack numbers!! Whoo hoo!!

Save the salmon but do not take the gillnets away,take out all the hydro dams will this work or outlaw gillnetting that is the number one problem.States do not want salmon abundance because of the mass millions of $$$ that fed govt gives under the endangered species act.States are supposed to protect resources not allow the decimation of them for greed $$$.Whenever there is a write up about fish stocks especially salmon restoration good luck trying to find a negative regarding gillnetting .The blame is usually the loggers,the farmers,climate change,low water,ect ect ect but never gillnets.Take the nets away and the rivers are packed full in less than 10 years.

Minority status along with discrimination can never not exist. We show discrimination most every day in our partners, friends and associations. Both native and indigenous are nebulous terms. Were the First Nations first ? Does it matter ? How many generations are necessary before a plant or a human is "native" ? Wikipedia says there is no legally accepted definition of indigenous. In the 300,000 years of human existence on earth where are the genealogical and chronological markers that separate a native or indigenous from all others ?

Non-Partisan?
I think not.
Jeff, there is TOO many conflict of interests here.
Don't forget Norma Turner pushing for the OMC levy while her son-in-law, Darryl Wolfe, drove it into the ground for hundreds of thousands in compensation each year. And Ann Soule with the LWV Water Committee is calling for the eviction of property owners from 3 Crabs.
The good ole cloak & dagger trick really does work for the radical liberals.The naive in these NGO's do not know they are being controlled by others they just go along with what the radicals suggest.
people try and twist history...its the same ol'salute as Germany.
The Bellamy Salute was an American gesture to pledge allegiance to the flag -- a super conservative 1892 movement, pushed by a magazine publisher (Daniel Sharp Ford) to put American flags in every schoolroom, and create a patriotic oath (written by Francis Bellamy) to bind immigrant children with a daily ritual, involving a right arm extension with the palm down. It was replaced by the hand-over-heart gesture in 1942 due to its resemblance the popular honor salute of the 20th century Italian Fascist movement, adopted by the National Socialist Germany Workers' Party in Germany. OOPS.
Both were based on a ROMAN salute depicted in a painting by Jacques-Louis David (1784?) called the Oath of the Horatii. (Based on a popular delusion that gladiators used it. Which really seems to be a myth.)
Congress tried to fix the Bellamy salute, by making it palm up, but that didn't work.
So, quick... change to a hand-over-heart. It was an embarrassing switch.
By the way, It is completely voluntary to pledge a flag. It was more than 80 years ago that the Supreme Court ruled on this with West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette. It's against the First Amendment to compel speech. I do not and have not since 1962. Once I realized that a new kid was being bullied because she was Quaker, and her religion forbade the pledge, I stopped, too.
"I won't if you can't." (Plus, I think it's dumb.)
OOOH a devotee. As in a believer in a particular religion. The religion of Tozerism? (means I am a Tozzerite?) Or, .... are they talking the slang term... a person (almost exclusively a man) with a sexual attraction for people with disabilities, especially amputees?
Mimi, you have always maintained yourself and beliefs. You follow no one! You are a very determined, educated and fact based person. You are no more a "Tozzer" than any of us are a "Tozzerite's" Keep it up!
Mimi, believe me, I would and have called you out on some things. You came back with facts and figures for me to think about. THAT IS WHAT MADE ME VOTE FOR YOU.

The Clallam County Commissioners meeting room should be Room 101, from 1984.
The monster in the closet always signals its intentions...for those with eyes to see and ears to hear and brains to think.
It is strange how life mimics fiction...many a truth is said in jest! 😎
After watching Susan Fisch attempt to run Charter Review meetings, I have concluded she has been able to separate CRITICAL from THINKING.
I actually think the LWV hand a direct hand in helping the teachers develop the list of media resources allowed for use in research papers at SHS. My daughter was admonished several times for daring to use sources outside the approved list.
And there it is.

Another entity using words (non-partisan) to stop the critical thinking.
More brainwashing just like what the fake media has been doing….5 minutes & brainwashing occurs.
TJ at that level of human age the critical thought process is dominated mostly by lust. Mine was.
Let's not forget about the pedifiles that our in the school system as well.
Wow, what a unique idea! Think for oneself? Listen to facts and make a decision? Or, follow the other lemmings off the cliff.
I predict "Tozzer devotee"...T-shirts are in our future.

Yes!! 🙌🏻
The good ole cloak & dagger trick really does work for the radical liberals.The naive in these NGO's do not know they are being controlled by others they just go along with what the radicals suggest.
holy crap thats intense!
Is that a Nazi salute, Madam LWV President?
Saw that too... Like I said, louder they scream at you, you know what's in their heart.
Looked like it to me.
Bellamy salute.
I had to look that up. It said palm out, but that would mean “stop” to me. Perhaps palm up was meant.
people try and twist history...its the same ol'salute as Germany.
