Thank you Jeff for relentless dedication to helping us all achieve the better county we deserve. Your call to action should inspire leadership that works tirelessly to correct and improve the scams and tragedies of Clallam County and push each of us to pay attention and pay it forward.
You work is driving change that each of us will and do benefit from daily. You are gaining support and followers at an ever growing pace and the change is palatable. Everyone who wants a better life and better break for Clallam County should stand with you and do whatever they can to help.
Few of us have seen you turn the tide from day one in Commissioner’s Chambers and in the school house and the roads of Clallam County, but as your progress grows daily, thousands of Clallam County citizens are watching and digging in to help.
Your selfless and seemingly tireless dedication to help everyone is mocked by many with their hands in other people’s pockets but rejoiced by those just working together to get and give a hand up honoring the American way.
Don’t let the bastards beat you down, and know you are loved by many you have never met and by all those you have.
So very well said. Many of us agree with Tom Ash. I’m also one that believes in what Jeff and Jake are doing to inform all of us. I hope and pray that there is a big change coming.
I feel many CC residents are feeling the pain and are fed up.
We all need to help Jeff and Jake.
Please vote early POST OFFICE CANT GUARANTEE YOUR BALLOT WONT BE THERE IN TIME (how convenient)
I agree with your opinion Chris Clark. Part of the problem is that old boomers (like me) don't feel any direct pain! At one time our lobby was powerful. Jeff and Jake are developing a strong base of intelligent articulate professionals who prefer data to emotional platitudes.
Tom, you have stated so articulately what so many of us appreciate and admire about Jeff. He had an idea of how to communicate to the public what needed to be changed about CC and did it himself. We can repay Jeff by taking action and doing what we can to help. Thank you, Jeff. May your little seedling grow into the mightiest tree in CC and stand for generations to come.
I think Jeff Tozzer enjoys the combat against an adversary. He reminds me of a figure in Greek Mythology who gathered strength every time he was knocked to the ground. The ground offered the individual strength and every time he was felled he rose stronger than before.
Cities are not collapsing because of mismanagement, incompetence, or lack of funding. They are collapsing because a vast network of nonprofits, activist organizations, consultants, and government agencies profit from collapse continuing.
This is the Homeless Industrial Complex — and its business model requires:
• Addicted people remaining addicted
• Homeless individuals remaining unsheltered
• Neighborhoods remaining unsafe
• Law enforcement remaining powerless
• Citizens remaining demoralized
The result is not compassion.
It is slow-motion mass death.
And the tragedy is not only visible — it is funded.
Billions in taxpayer dollars fund ‘housing first’ facilities that warehouse the homeless in drug-infested death camps. These nonprofits masquerade as compassionate while enabling addiction, crime, and cartel activity—the backbone of urban decay.
Jennifer this is exactly how URBAN GUETTOS are created. Watch “Hillary’s America” if you can manage to find. The documentary by Dinesh D’Souza lays out the history plain & simple how the Democratic Party creates chaos so they can help with lifetime dependency, no hope of ever fixing or resolving anything, the goal is for people to be dependent on government. It is the merry-go-round…,that has been occurring for years. NGO’s are another extension of dependency disguised….
This is why the mentally ill should never be elected to lead.The disturbing part is the amount of support the home wreckers get after all the evidence is in plain sight.Ignorant to the facts is a big problem and when things get really bad like the big cities trying to fix the problems is a nightmare that will take mass $$$.
The creeping incrementalism needs to be stopped by the "leaders" not enabled. That enablement is not compassion and is at the expense of the rest of us. Feel good bandaids on symptoms dont address the solutions for the problems. Tough love, zero tolerance, institionalization and treatment are the only answers and alsways have been. Enforce the laws and address the problems . Dont just throw money at it.
Jennifer thank you for that depressing and detailed insight. I confess that a very long time ago I worked for a city government. I enjoyed my small status and position. The work was monotonous, but I never felt any pressure to improve my position though I wasn't satisfied with my squeaky chair.
If you read the narrative for approving Prop 1, written by Randy Johnson, it fails to mention funds for public defenders, which is more than two million this year alone. Yes, the constitution allows for people who get arrested to be represented by public defenders. But how many times? When is enough,enough. After 25 arrests? This soft on crime in WA state is failing and the commissioners want law abiding property owners to pay big time. These current commissioners don't care about law and order and protecting the public. All they care about is money and power. And, there's a lot of money for "criminal justice". Please get out and vote NO! We will refuse to pay for soft on crime policies. Randy spins the narrative, but dig a little deeper before you give up more money for criminals defense.
Don, I believe they should provide public defenders. Who can even afford an attorney these days? If not, it could go back to the days of "debtor prisons". I know people, innocent of minor to medium minor offenses, that deserve a public defender. Can't punish everyone because of bad apples.
The revolving door for criminals is a Washington state issue. More specifically, a Governor -caused issue. He appoints the voting members of the Sentencing Guidelines Commission. That group develops the point system for judges to use when handing down punishment for criminals under the guise of statewide consistency. If a judge wants to impose a more stringent sentence it would involve more work for the judge.
A secondary problem with the juducial system is that many judges leave their positions before the end of their terms. Their vacancy is then filled by the Governor. As incumbents the appointed judges are very likely to be elected when the time for voters to fill the position rolls around.
Blaming the local prosecutors is expedient. Perhaps they keep the temporarily jailed from ever making it to trial.
When I attended a neighborhood watch meeting at which the previous county Prosecuting Attorney spoke, he pointed to the sentencing guidelines as the root cause of the revolving door and why we have a growing population of career criminals walking among us and terrorizing the innocent.
John, not to get in a huge debate, but what is a perfect government? Honestly, as I have said to my husband, "What country has a perfect government" It gives us hours of "fun" debate over dinner. Pass the Morton Salt Please...
The subject is very funny. I have experienced numerous debates about an authoritarian government vs a libertarian one. Historical facts do provide unpleasant clues. The reason we have terms like "perfect government" is because our populations cannot act property. Pass me a shot.
LOL our leaders are delusional. Instead of introducing democracy into The Middle East the Middle East has introduced new customs to Canada, Australia and Europe and our country. The concept of a perfect government is formed by blood lines. When Plato wrote about the perfect government were not all the participants Greek?
But they built things that are still standing. We should have built an aqueduct from Forks to Sequim. The Dungeness Valley should be cranking out the goods.
It isn’t a huge debate. A perfect government does not lose its APA process.
Any government with a good faith APA process is going to prevail over ones with corrupt APA processes or ones that don’t have it at all.
You can see it playing out in front of you right now.
I should have been able to use the APA to stop the Dungeness projects, but I cannot because they have sidestepped the APA over at SERN and NODC.
The current day is October 30, 2025.
The Puget Sound Partnership is determining our comprehensive plan land use and shoreline master plan. We were told our county process was done. November 4 or 5 Puget Sound Partnership decides the fate of our region.
To date, the public has never seen the final PSP to Clallam County documents. We elect Bruce Emery to do this...separate from the PSP. Bruce Emery has never publicly displayed this policy trail. Nobody from Clallam County ever has.
So they know full well I have the Jimmycomelately science they still support on record, they know I have found the 'compensation mechanism"and now we can show with numbers and property acquisition...the compensation trail.
They are terrified of the APA...it stands in the way of their "compensation mechanism." They hate Jeff's site because he puts it in media...you can google it. Blocking it from background screens was next... and after Eberlie was done they shit canned that.
I want Bruce Emery's job..or a job in that office... I don't need "clear path" or the Cascadia Consulting group.
Then there are the outsiders coming here today that are criminal but legal. They will be at PA Senior Center from 4 - 5 pm. Will they be joined by known local repeat offenders?
I have a bridge to sell you. No, wait! I have a better scam, I mean deal, for you. Yes! Pay me a bunch to tear the bridge down and pay me even more to replace it with a more expensive version. And you can say, “it’s for the children, I mean Kings, you know the Chinook salmon. Hey, Mel, get in here! Why are we calling them Kings instead of Chinook, Mel?
Scam alert!!! The Long Live the Kings group will be attempting to seduce PA seniors tomorrow, Wednesday, October 29 at 4 to 5 pm at the Senior Center. They want a new Hood Canal Bridge.
In conclusion, So, now the fish fraudsters are targeting the Hood Canal Bridge because they claim salmon smolts are confused and easy targets for seals. That tells me there is a seal problem not a bridge problem. (And a bozo problem too).
The same bozos argue that wild salmon are superior to hatchery produced ones. The real difference is wild ones have multiple predators from birth. They are tougher, that’s all. Maybe a combat course under the bridge is what is needed to strengthen the species.
My training involved learning that Dolly Varden Trout were extremely deadly for young steelhead. Would that include young salmon? So, Dollies were made a protected species just like seals. And the Barnaby Slough steelhead hatchery on the Skagit River was closed. Why? How many others? Go figure!
Seems a couple of Whooshh Innovations’ Salmon Cannons might accomplish the same purpose as a new bridge and save billions in just the interest expense on a new bridge let alone the other costs. But no prevailing wage jobs. Boo hoo! And no kickbacks to corrupt politicians. Boo hoo hoo!
How many hatcheries with built in combat training features for young fish could we build with the money wasted on “fish barrier” removal and the cost of a new bridge?
The salmon are not helpless. I wondered if the following video were real or AI. I was informed it is real. I believe it because it’s the kind of leap and struggle salmon had to make to negotiate Celilo Falls. Why were those falls special, perhaps sacred even, to the Indians and not a “fish barrier?”
Have you seen a culvert this small and difficult anywhere we’ve been wasting money on removals?
Have you already forgotten the dam removal and ongoing “fish barrier” removal scams?
Dams and culverts didn’t wreck the fisheries. The problem is not culverts or dams. We’ve had those for decades and we’ve had fish. They are only red-herrings designed to distract and keep the real culprits protected.
Have you ever seen a salmon struggling to go through a culvert? Have you ever seen a video of it? If the water can go through a culvert, is there a reason a salmon cannot go through? I’ve seen videos of salmon successfully struggling across wet roads. Is a culvert harder?
Have you seen salmon jumping to get over a rough natural section of water in person or in a video? Is there an outcry to remove that obstacle for better “fish passage?” Why wasn’t beloved Celilo Falls designated as a “fish barrier?” What about the “Sol Duc Salmon Cascades?” Ooh, cascades! It’s okay then, just cascades.
But, wait! There is something new. There has been an interesting change with “salmon cannons” made by Whooshh Innovations. It has long bothered me that we have had the ability to put men on the moon and bring them back safely for over 50 years, but we have trouble getting fish past a dam. Really? Well, no excuses now. Not any more? And we can now shoot a salmon part way to the moon. Progress!).
Look for Whooshh’s “Salmon Cannon.” Pay attention to the new one where the fish swim eagerly into the small opening. Makes one think maybe the culverts were too big. Not enough of a challenge.
All the money for the new culverts isn’t for fish. I consider it money laundering. Just another excuse to tax us more and put the blame for wrecked fisheries on someone and something else. “Don’t look at the culprits, look at the culverts.”
The inconveniences the construction delays cause is just a reminder of who is in charge. Do as we say. Also to inconvenience the driving public. Those damned cars. Stay home.
On the other hand, I support fish ladders were none previously and also better designs when available. Have you seen Switzerland’s design? Even better, have you seen the “Salmon Cannon?”
Are there enough flies and other bugs now for fish? Are there enough nutrients in the water for the bottom of the fish food chain, for the squid, anchovies, shrimp, herring, etc. to be healthy and abundant? How “polluted” were the waters when they were teeming with creatures that were pooping, dying, and decomposing?
Plenty doesn’t come from sterility.
Let's make each of the Snake River Dams, all dams, into vacation and outdoor fun destinations with water slides, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, bungie jumping, zip lines, and camping. Anything else?
How about some bicycles that can carry a salmon, allow people to pedal the fish past the dam. Contests could be designed for fastest time, most fish in set time, relays, etc.
Never again would we hear, “A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.”
Disney Land/World could use an unwoke up call too in the form of competition.
And, now we have the “Salmon Cannon.”
Wow! I was thinking of adding hot air balloon rides.
Remember - in America, we make the pie bigger, we don’t divide “the spoils” among special interests. More fish and water for all.
Water “adjudication” is evil and so is dam removal.
Long Live The Kings is holding a listening session tonight in PA according to a FB post that as of last night was on their website, but doesn't show today.
"REMINDER: Join us from 4 to 5 pm on Wednesday, Oct. 29 for a Q+A and a screening of our short film!
We’ll be at Port Angeles Senior and Community Center (328 E 7th Street), sharing more about the Hood Canal Bridge Assessment and how we’re envisioning a stronger, more connected future.
The short film explores the research around the bridge's effect on the ecosystems and livelihoods that depend on the waters of the Hood Canal."
The more aware one is of the actions and behaviors of local government the more one can’t help to realize how strong the addiction to power is. It’s power to divide in depth its citizens. Meetings that become political orgies, mindless and frantic calls to harm people once known as neighbors…. How much longer until they become vigilantes with torches and stakes… Our only tool is the vote, the meetings …. Our voices….. thank you Jeff☀️
The only explanation that I have been able to come up with to explain why there are so many crimes that go relatively unpunished is that the justice system is an industry and, like any other industry, it needs raw material to continue to function. Criminals are its raw material and, if it locks up its raw material, there goes its revenue stream. A cynical man would think this. Where would the cynical man be wrong?
This important message makes me nervous. It’s like the fox saying “hey chickens only use this one door over here, that other door into the hen house is dangerous”.
A Communist spoke at yesterday's BOCC meeting to let everyone listening that the BOCCC was doing a fine job despite the dissenters.
Another fine example of the out-of-touch hypocrisy infecting this region. It made me wonder if this old fool, shouting "get off my lawn" in a Communist way, understood just how ridiculous his appearance is where free speech is allowed and encouraged, understood the hypocrisy of his position.
Byt that wasn't enough. Then he had to yammer on about being in attendance of the No Kings demonstration. The absurdity of the juxtaposition can't be made up.
When a registered Communist who’s parents were registered communists & Soviet spy’s is elevated to the platform of Citizen of the Year here in Clallam County without rebuttal you’ve got to know our democrats are FAR LEFT RADICAL EXTREMISTS leading the charge from within. You can’t think or believe otherwise because there is no where else to go to the left they are at the end of the line. This is what this county is up against because they all support the Communist Tim Wheeler.
He even thanked Comm. Ozias and his wife, Lisa Bouleware, for being at the No Kings Rally in Sequim. After the meeting, Tim Wheeler rushed over to shake Ozias' hand. Ozias looked pleased and honored. That demonstration is why CC is in a financial crisis: Spending other people's money and praising each other for doing a great job!
Well after some deep thought, this young fool has realized I was wrong. The spectacle was actually 100% true to being a Communist. Speek unequivocally in favor of the "leaders" and admonish the dissenters. The other person who spoke favorably of the Communist suggesting a documentary should be made of him should just go back and watch yesterday's recording. There it is!
Actually if half of that population was housed inside a government institution separated by an advanced society the advanced society would not be required to keep a pistol beneath the pillow every night.
Having lived and worked in Oregon then moving here I continue to see this here. As my son-in-law always complained about was he would arrest an individual, have them processed jailed and released before he could get his own paperwork done. He would go out on patrol and arrest that same person again. He would arrest individuals like this 2-4 times a day on shift. Who knows, he may have even arrested the individuals listed in your article.
I lived on the coast and Multnomah County would bus their whatever you want to label them up and down the coast. Clatsop County was the closest dumping ground, and the merry-go-round began. We had county officials that were pathetic and would complain about it, but had no backbone to deal with it.
That the PA Senior Center would host such a group of scam artists is a huge disappointment to me. Their only goal can be to bankrupt Washington state taxpayers. Who do they support? That bridge is our key link to many needed services.
"Salmon recovery is a shared responsibility, and we couldn’t do this work alone.
Long Live the Kings is proud to COLLABORATE WITH TRIBAL NATIONS (not named) LOCAL BUSINESSES (not named), GOVERNMENT AGENCIES (not named) NONPROFIT AGENCIES, (not named) NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION (not named) and DEDICATED INDIVIDUALS (not named) who share our commitment to restoring salmon and steelhead in the Pacific Northwest. Together, we’re building a future where these iconic fish—AND THE COMMUNITIES THAT DEPEND ON THEM – CAN THRIVE" (not named)
Because of their rabid hatred for anything /person that acts in any way conservative, religious, republican, anyone not lockstep with them. Make us pay! for their crazy idealism known only to them.
I really do not understand how the city council and commissioners can even think these are the folks we want here. So very unsafe for citizens including children. I get I was raised knowing right from wrong (wrong also included breaking the law) but I cannot even wrap my mind around wanting child molesters and rapists anywhere near me or any one's children. Let alone folks with repeated violent serious offences.
Thank you Jeff for relentless dedication to helping us all achieve the better county we deserve. Your call to action should inspire leadership that works tirelessly to correct and improve the scams and tragedies of Clallam County and push each of us to pay attention and pay it forward.
You work is driving change that each of us will and do benefit from daily. You are gaining support and followers at an ever growing pace and the change is palatable. Everyone who wants a better life and better break for Clallam County should stand with you and do whatever they can to help.

That is a perfect metaphor for a farming/logging community.

This is not incompetence.
This is incentive architecture.
If you reward addiction, death, and disorder — you will get more addiction, more death, and more disorder.
Cities are being managed into collapse because collapse is lucrative.
The first step is to name the system.
The second is to defund it.
The third is to rebuild parallel institutions that serve human dignity, recovery, and real community.
This is not a humanitarian crisis.
This is a governance model.
Jennifer this is exactly how URBAN GUETTOS are created. Watch “Hillary’s America” if you can manage to find.

Maybe started with the CIA and Pres. Johnson - after he assassinated Pres. Kennedy... oops, better stick to the local collapse...
AFB, I know, it's so easy to veer off track, I keep catching myself doing it. I like your humorous apologise, so keep it up.
This is why the mentally ill should never be elected to lead.The disturbing part is the amount of support the home wreckers get after all the evidence is in plain sight.Ignorant to the facts is a big problem and when things get really bad like the big cities trying to fix the problems is a nightmare that will take mass $$$.
Thank you, you said what we had not put to words.
Jennifer what is the goal?
yes, yes, keep going, Jennifer.
hummm, add big pharma funding..
Yes new management must disengage all these NGOs. All...
No more grants to NGO's . Zero. That is not the job of government.
this is truth
The creeping incrementalism needs to be stopped by the "leaders" not enabled. That enablement is not compassion and is at the expense of the rest of us. Feel good bandaids on symptoms dont address the solutions for the problems. Tough love, zero tolerance, institionalization and treatment are the only answers and alsways have been. Enforce the laws and address the problems . Dont just throw money at it.
Supported by CC voters.
wow and thank you for this list. And funded by ALL OF US!
Jennifer thank you for that depressing and detailed insight. I confess that a very long time ago I worked for a city government. I enjoyed my small status and position. The work was monotonous, but I never felt any pressure to improve my position though I wasn't satisfied with my squeaky chair.

Randy spins the narrative, but dig a little deeper before you give up more money for criminals defense.
Does the Constitution really provide for public defenders, or is that a result of subsequent judicial “interpretation?”
Don, I believe they should provide public defenders. Who can even afford an attorney these days? If not, it could go back to the days of "debtor prisons". I know people, innocent of minor to medium minor offenses, that deserve a public defender. Can't punish everyone because of bad apples.
Maybe a public defender should only be provided to a tax paying resident of this county? and only for a a felony?
Okay, but some conditions and limits. 3 strikes?
True of course. But there are several repeat offenders, violent offenders, that use the system and the soft on crime policies turn a blind eye.
Or Ambulance chasers?
The whole, you have the right to remain silent...the silence is deafening. We as taxpayers have no say in the criminal "justice" system.
Wow, kind of an important bit of financial information to leave out, Randy!
What’s your salary? Maybe Randy should go. Be a role model, let the rest follow right behind you!

WOW, wow, wow! Thank you for this information, Rita!
How do you say 'meth clinic', a big money maker for the tribe?

It has long bothered me that we have had the ability to put men on the moon and bring them back safely for over 50 years, but we have trouble getting fish past a dam. Really? Well, no excuses now. Not any more? And we can now shoot a salmon part way to the moon. Progress!).
Look for Whooshh’s “Salmon Cannon.” Pay attention to the new one where the fish swim eagerly into the small opening. Makes one think maybe the culverts were too big. Not enough of a challenge.
All the money for the new culverts isn’t for fish. I consider it money laundering. Just another excuse to tax us more and put the blame for wrecked fisheries on someone and something else. “Don’t look at the culprits, look at the culverts.”
The inconveniences the construction delays cause is just a reminder of who is in charge. Do as we say. Also to inconvenience the driving public. Those damned cars. Stay home.
On the other hand, I support fish ladders were none previously and also better designs when available. Have you seen Switzerland’s design? Even better, have you seen the “Salmon Cannon?”
Are there enough flies and other bugs now for fish? Are there enough nutrients in the water for the bottom of the fish food chain, for the squid, anchovies, shrimp, herring, etc. to be healthy and abundant? How “polluted” were the waters when they were teeming with creatures that were pooping, dying, and decomposing?
Plenty doesn’t come from sterility.
Let's make each of the Snake River Dams, all dams, into vacation and outdoor fun destinations with water slides, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, bungie jumping, zip lines, and camping. Anything else?
How about some bicycles that can carry a salmon, allow people to pedal the fish past the dam. Contests could be designed for fastest time, most fish in set time, relays, etc.
Never again would we hear, “A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.”
Disney Land/World could use an unwoke up call too in the form of competition.
And, now we have the “Salmon Cannon.”
Wow! I was thinking of adding hot air balloon rides.
Remember - in America, we make the pie bigger, we don’t divide “the spoils” among special interests. More fish and water for all.
Water “adjudication” is evil and so is dam removal.
Long Live The Kings is holding a listening session tonight in PA according to a FB post that as of last night was on their website, but doesn't show today.
"REMINDER: Join us from 4 to 5 pm on Wednesday, Oct. 29 for a Q+A and a screening of our short film!
We’ll be at Port Angeles Senior and Community Center (328 E 7th Street), sharing more about the Hood Canal Bridge Assessment and how we’re envisioning a stronger, more connected future.
The short film explores the research around the bridge's effect on the ecosystems and livelihoods that depend on the waters of the Hood Canal."

Mk, Good one. Too bad we can't view the video ahead of time. Don Beeman was a commentator. He make sense to me.
I love the Sol Duc Salmon Cascades - so fascinating!
The moon.. Wow.
The more aware one is of the actions and behaviors of local government the more one can’t help to realize how strong the addiction to power is. It’s power to divide in depth its citizens. Meetings that become political orgies, mindless and frantic calls to harm people once known as neighbors…. How much longer until they become vigilantes with torches and stakes… Our only tool is the vote, the meetings …. Our voices….. thank you Jeff☀️
This is the BEST…. Couldn’t have nailed it better Jennifer kudos….
The only explanation that I have been able to come up with to explain why there are so many crimes that go relatively unpunished is that the justice system is an industry and, like any other industry, it needs raw material to continue to function. Criminals are its raw material and, if it locks up its raw material, there goes its revenue stream. A cynical man would think this. Where would the cynical man be wrong?
"Health care" industry has the same model. They do not make money if you are healthy.
I'm learning this is a great place to commit crimes! I'm in the wrong profession.
Do whatever, to whomever, and walk and repeat.
Now that's a profession where I can become a professional. Just like all the cool dudes above.
Keep voting as you have CC, these are jobs you are creating for the guys illustrated above.
I don’t feel safe walking around town anymore. I use to ride the discovery trail by myself but no longer. I now go out of town to ride a safe trail.
This important message makes me nervous. It’s like the fox saying “hey chickens only use this one door over here, that other door into the hen house is dangerous”.
Charlie Sheen says we need the "600 building" because 600 people commit 80 percent of the crime. I call it Bartertown.
These guys probably all belong in the "600 building."
But, they can sleep anywhere, hold swastika signs, cut DNR ribbons and camp out in tree tops.
The reason they assault the media is because they dont want to show their face so they can be tracked into this system Jeff is showing you.
What if Liberal judges and Prosecutors was knowingly running a political hamster wheel for the people that should be in the "600 building."
A Communist spoke at yesterday's BOCC meeting to let everyone listening that the BOCCC was doing a fine job despite the dissenters.
Another fine example of the out-of-touch hypocrisy infecting this region. It made me wonder if this old fool, shouting "get off my lawn" in a Communist way, understood just how ridiculous his appearance is where free speech is allowed and encouraged, understood the hypocrisy of his position.
Byt that wasn't enough. Then he had to yammer on about being in attendance of the No Kings demonstration. The absurdity of the juxtaposition can't be made up.
When a registered Communist who’s parents were registered communists & Soviet spy’s is elevated to the platform of Citizen of the Year here in Clallam County without rebuttal you’ve got to know our democrats are FAR LEFT RADICAL EXTREMISTS leading the charge from within. You can’t think or believe otherwise because there is no where else to go to the left they are at the end of the line. This is what this county is up against because they all support the Communist Tim Wheeler.

There’s much more do your own research don’t take it from me.
4rd, thank you for the link. I love documentation!
Too much doobie and 'delics.
He even thanked Comm. Ozias and his wife, Lisa Bouleware, for being at the No Kings Rally in Sequim. After the meeting, Tim Wheeler rushed over to shake Ozias' hand. Ozias looked pleased and honored. That demonstration is why CC is in a financial crisis: Spending other people's money and praising each other for doing a great job!
omg
And making a Tozzer Devotee list......
Yeah were broke fella great work...
Well after some deep thought, this young fool has realized I was wrong. The spectacle was actually 100% true to being a Communist. Speek unequivocally in favor of the "leaders" and admonish the dissenters. The other person who spoke favorably of the Communist suggesting a documentary should be made of him should just go back and watch yesterday's recording. There it is!
Actually if half of that population was housed inside a government institution separated by an advanced society the advanced society would not be required to keep a pistol beneath the pillow every night.
We wouldn’t have to keep half as much bud light cold.
Well Charlie Sheen would know!
Some box in the middle of the autonomy zone with a dude camping 50 feet away...Your vote will be perfectly safe..
I mailed mine! sure hope there are some good souls working hard at the PO!
Having lived and worked in Oregon then moving here I continue to see this here. As my son-in-law always complained about was he would arrest an individual, have them processed jailed and released before he could get his own paperwork done. He would go out on patrol and arrest that same person again. He would arrest individuals like this 2-4 times a day on shift. Who knows, he may have even arrested the individuals listed in your article.
I lived on the coast and Multnomah County would bus their whatever you want to label them up and down the coast. Clatsop County was the closest dumping ground, and the merry-go-round began. We had county officials that were pathetic and would complain about it, but had no backbone to deal with it.
That the PA Senior Center would host such a group of scam artists is a huge disappointment to me. Their only goal can be to bankrupt Washington state taxpayers. Who do they support? That bridge is our key link to many needed services.
One guess, just one guess who they support.

it's like they had a grant grift template and forgot to change it to specifics
MK, I got too worked up and lost my mind over this one, it was best I deleted my comment. "I'm feeling much better now" quote from Stepford Wives.
Because of their rabid hatred for anything /person that acts in any way conservative, religious, republican, anyone not lockstep with them. Make us pay! for their crazy idealism known only to them.
I really do not understand how the city council and commissioners can even think these are the folks we want here. So very unsafe for citizens including children. I get I was raised knowing right from wrong (wrong also included breaking the law) but I cannot even wrap my mind around wanting child molesters and rapists anywhere near me or any one's children. Let alone folks with repeated violent serious offences.
I just do not get it. :(
