I’m writing with a few straightforward questions that I believe deserve clear answers.
Over the course of multiple articles and direct outreach, several questions have been sent to your organization without response. Why has the League chosen not to engage or provide clarification?
Additionally, why did the League decline to advertise or promote the recent Public Safety Town Hall—an event open to the entire community—despite being asked, while continuing to promote events such as ESPRIT, which is a private convention for transgender individuals? (https://lwvcla.clubexpress.com)
Finally, when concerns are raised about the conduct of individuals in leadership positions—such as Susan Fisch and Patrice Johnston, whose actions are perceived by some as hostile to free speech—does the League’s silence indicate agreement or endorsement of those actions?
These are basic questions about transparency, consistency, and accountability. I would appreciate a direct response.
Love when the facts start coming……IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT WHAT YOU DONT SEE!
Can you imagine if the hidden books became transparent? What a CON job if only we could see what we don’t see?
I think we’ve seen enough though. We should be questioning the discrepancies of what we are being told to believe by the tribe verses what published history shows (not made up propaganda). I’ve wondered is the JST really who they say they are or just some propped up story tale, like Cinderella? So thank you Jeff for another history lesson and another piece of the puzzle 🤗👍
The last sentence of this email request will be to much for the liberals to handle and will probably cause them a great deal of emotional stress LOL.I suspect that jeff will have better luck winning a lottery than getting a truthful direct response.
The difference between last night's Calico Cat forum, which by the way was standing room only and went long due to public interest, and LWV forums, was that the questions weren't curated.
In one setting we had the ultimate in free speech and public debate with no agenda other than to hear perspectives. In this current environment of overcharged national politics controlling local politics little old Clallam County came together and just talked. WTF? It felt surreal, especially because while the verve was clearly in one direction there were those publicly recognizable as being associated with the LWV's also asking hard questions of the panel.
On the other hand, the LWV's curates the questions they'll allow a candidate to be asked. What's not so obvious is their use of the tactic of telling anyone with a question to submit it which in reality is a method to curate the questions so as to control the narrative.
Until the LWV's decides to return to their original mission I won't ever spend another minute listening to them tell me how to think.
Thank you Mark Curtis, the organizer of last nights event, of injecting a breath of fresh air back into Clallam County last night.
MK, thank you for your review. For the ones who could not attend, I hope we get more reviews. It's enlightening to hear as many perspectives as possible ; )
I did not attend the meeting, so would like to know more. If I may, ask the question: After the meeting ended, which speaker gave you a strong impression that when we awoke on Friday the 18th that changes were being implemented in an area of high concern to the attendees? And would you share with us so that we can track the progress?
Mark Nichols made a comment about what I'd call "impact" charging where they are trying to aggregate crimes. I can't recall the specifics because it all went pretty quick but it had to do with trying to get higher sentences so that it might prompt people to choose recovery.
Sheriff King said that they are working on figuring out how to extradite subjects who have warrants which are outside of normal extradition areas so that they can be returned to where they came from to be held accountable to those charges.
"Seattle released its Clean City report this week...661,000 sharps. Needles, syringes, lancets. Collected from Seattle streets, sidewalks, and public spaces in a single year...This would not be tolerated in Nashville. It would not be tolerated in Houston. MOST AMERICAN CITIES LOOKED AT THIS PROBLEM AND SAID: NO. NOT HERE. NOT ON OUR SIDEWALKS. NOT IN OUR PARKS. Let’s get you into rehab. And if you’re not willing to do that, there will be consequences.
San Francisco(!) just elected a new mayor who ran explicitly on cleaning up the streets and cracking down on open drug use. And Colorado residents gathered 200,000 signatures statewide to put a fentanyl crackdown on the November ballot. Seattle hasn’t picked up a pen yet" ...NOR HAS CLALLAM COUNTY.
Hard to say. I'm sure both could provide estimates. The extradition is a staffing matter to get these people to far away places. The impact charging would likely need the right situation for ot to have potential. I don't think that Nichols wouldn't already try if a situation presents.
Drought, like climate, is just another word, used by politicians (usually liberal) to manipulate outcomes. Outcomes that benefit their donors more than the people they are supposed to be representing.
You have raised some extremely important questions.
1. Who advocates for tribal members who have a legitimate claim under “time immemorial” and are denied enrollment or who have been disenrolled? Here is a 5 minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GJBkuNW754
2. The Chimakum history lays bare that the S’Kallam Tribe abides by the saying, TO THE VICTOR BELONG THE SPOILS. Why doesn’t the same apply to the colonist?
3. Why is a small group of members within a Sovereign Nations totaling (200) given unlimited water rights compared to the the water rights of the surrounding county whose people total (77,000)? The power of one Sovereign Nation rights, over the larger Sovereign Nation rights is intolerable.
One of the things that I try to distinguish when I am speaking to anyone about these matters is that there are tribal corporations, and there are tribal members. They are not the same, and I then make it clear. My only "tribal" heartburn comes from the corporations that do not embody what I have been led to believe as being a benevolent people, yet when a tribal corporation won't share their wealth that draws my ire.
People want to bash the treaties, but what many don't seem to want to recognize is that what the tribes got was an end to the territorial wars. The killing, and slavery that went on.
MK, I agree with your statement...“One of the things that I try to distinguish when I am speaking to anyone about these matters is that there are tribal corporations, and there are tribal members. They are not the same, and I then make it clear.”
A tribally owned business is different than a Business Owned By a Member of a Tribe. A tribally owned business can be formed as an Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) Section 17 corporation, OR tribally chartered corporation, OR a state-chartered tribal corporation.
Each structure has different consequences in terms of tax liability, preservation of tribal assets, and corporate transparency requirements for potential creditors, investors, partners, regulators, and customers.
CHOOSING A TRIBAL BUSINESS STRUCTURE (It can be complicated!)
When a tribe incorporates, it will need to determine the structure that their tribally owned business adopts and under whose laws it will be organized.
(1) IRA Section 17 Corporation
Preserves tribal assets: A Section 17 corporation is wholly owned by the tribe, but is separate and distinct from the tribal government...No federal income taxes...Can issue tax-exempt bonds
(2) Tribally Chartered Corporation
A tribally chartered corporation is an entity organized by a tribal government that’s pursuant to a tribal code or resolution...Avoid state regulation and taxation...Easy to form
(3) State-Chartered Tribal Corporation
A “state-chartered” tribal corporation is a corporation wholly or partially owned by a tribe organized under state law...Easy to form...Transparent
I am so glad you bring that up! I believe that distinguishment really needs to be implemented/discussed/clarified every time discussions of JKT corporation occurs. Some people in the community are under the wrong impression and think the scrutiny that is being given is to the people of the JKT and it is not. Far from it.
Going to school here, yes, cliquish as normal in high school. You were a honor society, jock, farmer or partied and the list could continue but it wasn’t because of race or heritage. We all had opportunities for our futures.
I don’t believe in many of the policies of Clallam County government or Washington state just as I don’t believe in many of the policies of the JKT government. I enjoy my constitutional rights and I will continue to fight for them.
In order for tribes to get things that want for free and prosper they just need a educated con artist leader that will get their tribe recognized-documented then teach members to be grant writers.Remember JKT-JST 'R allen' just started a casino now look at it's wealth than continues to grow.
UFOCCWD, who do you think knows more about gambling? When the first casinos were built the "con artist leaders" were there ready, willing and able to educate AND PROFIT, don't forget the sovereign nation is NOT UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE US GOVERNMENT. They grew too fast starting with the first one in 1984. (Bay Mills Michigan Indian Reservation) Some failed and completely fed off their own community, making many reservations a trash hole. The ones that hit the jackpot won, big time!
Arghh! "Clallam" seems to be synonymous with "Corruption".
In other news, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas warned that progressivism is an existential threat to democracy. I wonder if he has been reading CCWD for his inspiration for that comment.
This is something personal that I’ve been trying to put into words carefully.
My husband’s grandmother came from a Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe family line that, for complicated reasons, wasn’t openly talked about when she was growing up. It was a different time- being Native wasn’t something people always felt safe or proud to claim, and there was a lot of generational trauma tied into that silence.
Because of that history, records from the early 1900s- especially things like the 1925 rolls- weren’t always accurate. In our family’s case, the recorded blood quantum was understated. At the time, I don’t think anyone imagined how much those numbers would matter generations later.
Today, my husband is recognized as a descendant, but the listed quantum doesn’t reflect what we believe is accurate based on our family lineage. Even with modern tools like DNA testing, there isn’t a pathway to revisit or correct those historical records within the system.
On my side, I also carry heritage connected to the Yakama Nation. So when we look at our children, it’s hard not to feel like their full story isn’t being seen or acknowledged on paper.
Tribes have every right to define their own membership. But that doesn’t mean families like ours don’t feel the weight of how historical decisions, inaccuracies, or even survival choices continue to affect later generations.
For us, it’s not just about a number. It’s about identity, history, and a connection that feels deeper than what’s written in an old document. I know there have been some talks about changing the quantum, however our leadership is not open to it at this time.
I’m sharing this because I know we’re not the only family navigating something like this.
I doubt the league of women voters care to hear us or many of the other Tribal members who don't live locally and are blatantly ignored. Sad!
Thank you Jeff Tozzer for again bringing up the disgusting "two faced" lies of the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal government~! I do remember a previous Watch Dog article that exposed the truth that numerous members of the Jamestown tribe were excluded from receiving the original settlement proceeds long ago, in a truly greedy and perverse act BY MEMBERS OF THE JAMESTOWN TRIBE LEADERSHIP~! As this was done unilaterally and in violation of the settlement in law and/or the Spirit of the settlement agreement itself, it is the current Jamestown Tribal government that is TOTALLY responsible and, on the hook, to now finally pay those members who's money they stole and who's rights they violated and ignored long ago~! With Interest and an official well-advertised apology of course~! Furthermore, as members of the Jamestown tribal government and their "useful idiots" have taken it upon themselves to racially insult and bash most of the residents of Clallam County as so-called "invaders" on our own land, it is only right for them to NOW officially acknowledge THEIR genocidal attack upon the Chimakum tribe who's land THEY in fact invaded and to compensate the few remaining Chimakum tribal members to pay them restitution for the atrocities that the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal ancestors in fact committed~! The Jamestown tribal government also owes a well-advertised apology to the remaining Chimakum tribal members AND to all of the residents of Clallam County who they have intentionally disparaged~! Additionally, as the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal government has weaseled & wormed their way into a position of influencing OUR local, state, and federal governments, they can now use that power to induce the federal government to OFFICIALLY acknowledge the Chimakum Tribe as legitimate American Indians~!!! This of course means that the Jamestown tribe will have to share their ill-gotten wealth with the Chimakum people now and going forward~! The league of deceptive backstabbing women voters will just have to live in disgrace for their treasonous history of double standards and lies, because they are already known as subversive political terrorists~! At no time in history have those who have made efforts to silence others, in this case to infringe upon Americans 1st Amendment right, have they EVER been on the right side of humanity or history~! Not once~! One of the most telling acts that always exposes the criminals of humanity, is when they are caught working against the freedom of speech of others for ANY reason~! The Jamestown S'Klallam tribe can have the respect that they say that they want, but ONLY when they demonstrate that same respect for ALL others themselves~!
For a sovereign nation that holds itself in such high esteem, how can they possibly act like droughts don’t require actions on their part? The tribe believes it shows better stewardship in Clallam County than the elected or life long citizens of this area who will be expected ed to reduce water use.
prove you are engaged at the same level the rest of us are.
If equality is such a hallmark of the tribe, then it is only fair that benefits as well as obligations rest squarely on the tribe members, as it does on Clallam County Citizens.
Knowing the huge profits that the tribe reports annually, we, the tax paying citizens are financially carrying the tribe through taxes for every infrastructure a county requires to operate. Money received from the federal government or profits from a variety of tribe projects, are not the same as the tax dollars the rest of us struggle to pay.
It’s impossible to have an even playing field when one team has possession of all the advantages provided from the population, exclusion from state and federal taxes only to receive
federal support. All of which comes from the American Tax Payers. In the last decade, have any laws, rules, or regulation gone contrary to the desires of the JS tribe?
Because of tax payers, everyone benefits and expects the infrastructure to be funded.
JST say they are stewards at every presentation, every printed pamphlet, every meeting with our elected officials locally and in Congress……they are trying to steal a National Park and refuge because they are stewards of the land they say! They JST a corporation says one thing and does another when it comes to their financial interests. The JST is an excellent steward of tax-payer money for their financial gain no matter what it destroys in the process doesn’t matter.
Susan, their stewardship is about the fish. Water gets too low and the salmon can't make it up streams. So rationing starts, but all their plants, lawns and GOLF COURSE
stay oh so green. It means we sacrifice even more because the stewards know what's best....they certainly care more than anyone else.
Susan, Are you available to run for an elected position? I sure wish we could have elected officials who think and see it as you do!
Agreed, filling in natural wetlands at the golf course destroying land intended for wildlife, building a casino next to a salmon stream where the run off from the parking lots flows into the stream with tire particulates endangering the salmon population, plans to introduce non-native oysters that harm the pristine waters with bio waste for financial gain, and then claim they are good stewards of the land. How is that good stewards of the land? So I ask, how is the JST a good or better steward of the land? Yes they breeched a levee and tried to steal a county road in the process, they have had years to restore salmon to the Dungeness & have failed. Building structures for profit does not steward land.
I don't want to put words in his mouth, but Clifford Mass, professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington, has some questions about the dire drought predictions for the state. I will let him speak for himself.
Looking back on the Emergency Drought declaration from the Department of Ecology issued in June, 2025:
"The bottom line in all this is that there was little evidence of drought over our region based on impacts, and such impacts are required to call a situation a drought."
I am off topic today but it needs to come to attention how we are spending CC tax money to support contractors out of our county. The school in PA, Public Safety Building PA, Airport Hanger job in PA, now Dental Clinic in Sequim (Tribal). These all have given to Generals out of area using Electrical Contractors from their areas and outside our tax base. When as taxpayers going to wake up in what we allow to happen. We complain about the Tribe and their lack of taxes on land grabs and we sit by and watch about $200m in spending mostly out of our county. Enough ranting today but I am not through fighting to keep OUR money local. Tribes are not the enemy it is us allowing the local money to be spent in Seattle and Tacoma.Wake up CC! Vote for Jake! Oh I forgot the Sequim school project is going the same way. That’s only about 100m more gone!
I noted the LWV varying proclamations of we are a league for everyone. I would like to learn their efforts on behalf of three substantive groups; males, Caucasians and heterosexuals. I see their altruistic goal to be the ending of discrimination when that is impossible. All of us, including LWV members and followers, live and practice our preferences, ( discriminate ), in pleasures, taste, smell, plants, pets, life partners sexual or not, hobbies, sports, living environment, clothing and so much more. Discrimination is ubiquitous, inevitable and inescapable. Unlike the LWV, merit has no bias. Do you want safe functional roads built with the least cost attainable or do you want roads built with Government made up participation percentages of females, dark skin tones, preferred ethnicities and sexual deviancies' ? Being an NGO the LWV can fight for any and all the minority classifications they can imagine and create, but Government has no place in social engineering. What our society calls native Americans no longer live. The native American lifestyle is no longer practiced. Living as American continent inhabitants did prior to European colonization might be possible, but I am confident none of their progeny would forego cell phones, computers, powered mobility, sanitation and transportation systems to live in the past. Today's proclaimed "native" Americans are no more native than any others born to the American continent. In addition to all the aforementioned conveniences today's progeny of "native" Americans also enjoy the time honored ancestral practice of operating casinos. The status of being both a full USA citizen and a sovereign citizen simultaneously is a discrimination worthy of ending.
I see that a Joseph Allen signed - any relation to.
I'm seeing the current ruling party in the state working very hard to: Blow up dams and thus cancel out agricultural production in our state. Closing down forest/timber harvests in our state. Wasting millions on salmon restoration. Driving businesses out of the state with their taxation policies. Pushing hard to not enforce laws, creating anarchy in our county, because the druggie/perv individual nomad is more important than the fabric of our society. At one time history books referred to, "the 47states of the Union and Washington state."
While it is clear that the view of the current snowpack from the average Individuals ability to see it from the view that "we" have here, does appear to be less than it has been in recent years, I am in no way convinced that instantly equates to a so-called "drought"~! Nature has wide variations that have existed for hundreds of millions of years... Yes, we just experienced a very mild Winter here in our community at lower elevations and the optics from our viewpoint does reveal less snow on this side of the mountain range, however, not many can view the MASSIVE interior of the mountain range above and beyond our view to be able to determine the ACTUAL snowpack at the higher elevations~! As "we" have been lied to repeatedly for decades about water issues and the constant so-called "drought conditions" only an idiot would believe these supposed "scientists" about it at this point now. If there was really a concern about water, wouldn't the Jamestown S'Klallam tribe cut their usage of water, being such great "stewards of the land" and all??? Yes, it is always a good practice to use our water resource carefully and without waste, however with the constant attacks from the "fear porn" terrorists about everything on earth, at what point do "we" tell them to go "F" themselves and live our lives reasonably as the REAL stewards of OUR land who love our community~! We just need to be careful not to waste our natural resources, especially including water, and ignore these terrorists in and out of government who obviously can't be trusted in any way~! Remember, we have in recent years been put in extreme danger of the terrorists in government, who have devised and implemented this "water police" BS, so THAT should give everyone concern that the government is THE threat to our water and our very lives now!
I agree with you. I do not believe this so called 'drought' they are trying to convince us with is real. I also would guess most people are not the 'problem' with the water usage. I think it's just the gov trying to control us, (and/or every aspect of our lives).
Absolutely, what are the odds that the government lies to us for DECADES about droughts and water shortage issues, the state of Washington (and other states) enacted very strict laws prohibiting anyone from even catching rainwater without a "permit" & forcing us to pay money to the state for OUR water at every turn, they invent this BS "water police" crappola and shove it down all of our throats against our free will, and then, IMMEDIATELY, the very first year that we have a lighter than usual Winter & snow pack, this same lying and deceptive government screams about a drought BEFORE this very wet Spring has any chance to even dry out~??? Of course, those of us who have been paying attention and tracking the criminals of humanity, who have made no secret of their plans to dominate and control OUR water for DECADES (yes DECADES), have been watching these scumbags slowly do exactly that, and now they are claiming that drought conditions exist even though we just had a tremendous downpour with hail two nights ago~! Yes, folks would have to be a "special kind of stupid" to get hysterical enough to turn into a "Chicken Little" and fall for this evil murderous government (AGAIN)~!!! These scumbag fake science - fake scientists who long ago sold us all out and betrayed America and humanity, and their evil Globalist puppeteers, are not to be trusted one bit, especially since they were ALL JUST caught red handed in the largest scale mass murder democide ever recorded in history where they slaughtered MANY millions of innocent people all over the US (and world) with their "safe and effective" COVID death jab that is STILL killing people every single day~! HA~! Ya, right, I wonder why anyone would doubt these criminals of humanity who have not told the truth about ANYTHING as far back as anyone can remember~! You are 100% correct, that the vast majority of folks never "waste water" and it makes absolutely no difference what we do anyway, because as sure as anything these filthy murderous terrorists are going to tighten the screws on everyone anyway! That has always been their plan, and I have seen this exact same "plan" before for over 50 years~!!! Except the Jamestown Indian government clowns of course, because they have all been in on these crimes against humanity right from the beginning~! The "drought" that we need is one where we get rid of these criminals of humanity in and out of government, until there is a scarcity of THEM~! Screw these lying deceptive murderers~! Have a great weekend and keep the faith, because better times are ahead my friend~!!!
We know how busy folks are these days, so come & go as you please ;-))
Monday afternoon we got a beautifully clear view of the mountains here and it was obvious that a lot of snow is still there, admittedly not as much as the record snowpack of the past couple of years at this time of year, but definitely a substantial amount of snow. There is absolutely no reason to panic or encourage the power mad government to hammer everyone with their usual abusive BS, as if any amount of taxes and government power would have any effect upon the snow in them thar hills anyway~! This constant "fear porn" BS from the insane government has to be stopped because too many are aware that the criminals in government are just using their evil satanic manipulative social engineering garbage as a weapon against Americans. Have a great day and keep up the excellent work because together "we" can remove the thieves and destructive socialist scumbags from government and hopefully the country~! Anyone who does not want our American freedoms and rights can go to any number of other countries to live where they will have few, if any, freedoms and rights~!
Mike, I agree with you again. I believe we are 'to do' or 'take actions' where we can, do everything in our mental/physical power, and seek God for guidance as well. Enjoy your day! KX
You know the Lord God said not to concern yourselves with things you can't control HE will provide so condemn the government terrorists and control freaks and there chem trails . I 'm into Gods plan.
We do have to wonder exactly what "we" (humans) are and are not capable of controlling, especially given the atrocities of the man-made weather modification and "Chem Trail" programs~? Yes, God's plan is all powerful and perhaps "we" (humans) are to achieve great and even what may now seem "impossible" things~? There are a great many things that "we" (humans) can do but should NOT do. The criminals of humanity are criminals because they always do what they should NOT do... Yes, we do need to come together to see that our country and world changes for the better and the criminals are removed from the picture~!

Dear League of Women Voters of Clallam County,

Just like the tribe being given the questions so they could prepare and the commissioners would know exactly what was coming and how they'd respond.
MK, thank you for your review. For the ones who could not attend, I hope we get more reviews. It's enlightening to hear as many perspectives as possible ; )

The mindset is simply wrong here.
Those mind sets need to go, and last night separated the reality from the pipe dreamers……..the pipe dreamers need to be gone!
Yes, and this discussion has been going on for at least a year since I've been on here. Guess we haven't hit the bottom yet.
Many thanks for your quick response. What would you say is a reasonable amount of time too see an update from Nichols and King?
Reasonable? To the “normal” inquiring citizen or to the overworked, under funded, in need of more resources county/city leaders?
Yes, I am very doubtful you will see change anytime soon. It’s going to be a slow roll.
It's that same slow roll that has us where we are. Nothing changes overnight, it all takes time.
Hard to say. I'm sure both could provide estimates. The extradition is a staffing matter to get these people to far away places. The impact charging would likely need the right situation for ot to have potential. I don't think that Nichols wouldn't already try if a situation presents.
Drought, like climate, is just another word, used by politicians (usually liberal) to manipulate outcomes. Outcomes that benefit their donors more than the people they are supposed to be representing.
Let's see where the grant funding goes this summer due to the drought declaration.
THE SCALES OF JUSTICE ARE UNBALANCED
You have raised some extremely important questions.

A tribally owned business is different than a Business Owned By a Member of a Tribe. A tribally owned business can be formed as an Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) Section 17 corporation, OR tribally chartered corporation, OR a state-chartered tribal corporation.
Each structure has different consequences in terms of tax liability, preservation of tribal assets, and corporate transparency requirements for potential creditors, investors, partners, regulators, and customers.
CHOOSING A TRIBAL BUSINESS STRUCTURE (It can be complicated!)
When a tribe incorporates, it will need to determine the structure that their tribally owned business adopts and under whose laws it will be organized.
(1) IRA Section 17 Corporation
Preserves tribal assets: A Section 17 corporation is wholly owned by the tribe, but is separate and distinct from the tribal government...No federal income taxes...Can issue tax-exempt bonds
(2) Tribally Chartered Corporation
A tribally chartered corporation is an entity organized by a tribal government that’s pursuant to a tribal code or resolution...Avoid state regulation and taxation...Easy to form
(3) State-Chartered Tribal Corporation
A “state-chartered” tribal corporation is a corporation wholly or partially owned by a tribe organized under state law...Easy to form...Transparent
I am so glad you bring that up! I believe that distinguishment really needs to be implemented/discussed/clarified every time discussions of JKT corporation occurs. Some people in the community are under the wrong impression and think the scrutiny that is being given is to the people of the JKT and it is not. Far from it.
Going to school here, yes, cliquish as normal in high school. You were a honor society, jock, farmer or partied and the list could continue but it wasn’t because of race or heritage. We all had opportunities for our futures.
I don’t believe in many of the policies of Clallam County government or Washington state just as I don’t believe in many of the policies of the JKT government. I enjoy my constitutional rights and I will continue to fight for them.
In order for tribes to get things that want for free and prosper they just need a educated con artist leader that will get their tribe recognized-documented then teach members to be grant writers.Remember JKT-JST 'R allen' just started a casino now look at it's wealth than continues to grow.
UFOCCWD, who do you think knows more about gambling? When the first casinos were built the "con artist leaders" were there ready, willing and able to educate AND PROFIT, don't forget the sovereign nation is NOT UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE US GOVERNMENT. They grew too fast starting with the first one in 1984. (Bay Mills Michigan Indian Reservation) Some failed and completely fed off their own community, making many reservations a trash hole. The ones that hit the jackpot won, big time!
Arghh! "Clallam" seems to be synonymous with "Corruption".
In other news, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas warned that progressivism is an existential threat to democracy. I wonder if he has been reading CCWD for his inspiration for that comment.
Conserve water? Great! One more reason to stop the shower vouchers! LOL.
Does anyone else feel a meme coming?
Good one!! ;o))
This is something personal that I’ve been trying to put into words carefully.
My husband’s grandmother came from a Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe family line that, for complicated reasons, wasn’t openly talked about when she was growing up. It was a different time- being Native wasn’t something people always felt safe or proud to claim, and there was a lot of generational trauma tied into that silence.
Because of that history, records from the early 1900s- especially things like the 1925 rolls- weren’t always accurate. In our family’s case, the recorded blood quantum was understated. At the time, I don’t think anyone imagined how much those numbers would matter generations later.
Today, my husband is recognized as a descendant, but the listed quantum doesn’t reflect what we believe is accurate based on our family lineage. Even with modern tools like DNA testing, there isn’t a pathway to revisit or correct those historical records within the system.
On my side, I also carry heritage connected to the Yakama Nation. So when we look at our children, it’s hard not to feel like their full story isn’t being seen or acknowledged on paper.
Tribes have every right to define their own membership. But that doesn’t mean families like ours don’t feel the weight of how historical decisions, inaccuracies, or even survival choices continue to affect later generations.
For us, it’s not just about a number. It’s about identity, history, and a connection that feels deeper than what’s written in an old document. I know there have been some talks about changing the quantum, however our leadership is not open to it at this time.
I’m sharing this because I know we’re not the only family navigating something like this.
I doubt the league of women voters care to hear us or many of the other Tribal members who don't live locally and are blatantly ignored. Sad!
Thank you Jeff Tozzer for again bringing up the disgusting "two faced" lies of the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal government~! I do remember a previous Watch Dog article that exposed the truth that numerous members of the Jamestown tribe were excluded from receiving the original settlement proceeds long ago, in a truly greedy and perverse act BY MEMBERS OF THE JAMESTOWN TRIBE LEADERSHIP~! As this was done unilaterally and in violation of the settlement in law and/or the Spirit of the settlement agreement itself, it is the current Jamestown Tribal government that is TOTALLY responsible and, on the hook, to now finally pay those members who's money they stole and who's rights they violated and ignored long ago~! With Interest and an official well-advertised apology of course~! Furthermore, as members of the Jamestown tribal government and their "useful idiots" have taken it upon themselves to racially insult and bash most of the residents of Clallam County as so-called "invaders" on our own land, it is only right for them to NOW officially acknowledge THEIR genocidal attack upon the Chimakum tribe who's land THEY in fact invaded and to compensate the few remaining Chimakum tribal members to pay them restitution for the atrocities that the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal ancestors in fact committed~! The Jamestown tribal government also owes a well-advertised apology to the remaining Chimakum tribal members AND to all of the residents of Clallam County who they have intentionally disparaged~! Additionally, as the Jamestown S'Klallam tribal government has weaseled & wormed their way into a position of influencing OUR local, state, and federal governments, they can now use that power to induce the federal government to OFFICIALLY acknowledge the Chimakum Tribe as legitimate American Indians~!!! This of course means that the Jamestown tribe will have to share their ill-gotten wealth with the Chimakum people now and going forward~! The league of deceptive backstabbing women voters will just have to live in disgrace for their treasonous history of double standards and lies, because they are already known as subversive political terrorists~! At no time in history have those who have made efforts to silence others, in this case to infringe upon Americans 1st Amendment right, have they EVER been on the right side of humanity or history~! Not once~! One of the most telling acts that always exposes the criminals of humanity, is when they are caught working against the freedom of speech of others for ANY reason~! The Jamestown S'Klallam tribe can have the respect that they say that they want, but ONLY when they demonstrate that same respect for ALL others themselves~!
Sincerely, Mike
You're welcome Michael 😁
For a sovereign nation that holds itself in such high esteem, how can they possibly act like droughts don’t require actions on their part? The tribe believes it shows better stewardship in Clallam County than the elected or life long citizens of this area who will be expected ed to reduce water use.
prove you are engaged at the same level the rest of us are.
If equality is such a hallmark of the tribe, then it is only fair that benefits as well as obligations rest squarely on the tribe members, as it does on Clallam County Citizens.
Knowing the huge profits that the tribe reports annually, we, the tax paying citizens are financially carrying the tribe through taxes for every infrastructure a county requires to operate. Money received from the federal government or profits from a variety of tribe projects, are not the same as the tax dollars the rest of us struggle to pay.
It’s impossible to have an even playing field when one team has possession of all the advantages provided from the population, exclusion from state and federal taxes only to receive
federal support. All of which comes from the American Tax Payers. In the last decade, have any laws, rules, or regulation gone contrary to the desires of the JS tribe?
Because of tax payers, everyone benefits and expects the infrastructure to be funded.
Toss us the virtual bone of appreciation!
Because the Corp part doesn't really see themselves as stewards anymore. They just use it as a selling point.
JST say they are stewards at every presentation, every printed pamphlet, every meeting with our elected officials locally and in Congress……they are trying to steal a National Park and refuge because they are stewards of the land they say! They JST a corporation says one thing and does another when it comes to their financial interests. The JST is an excellent steward of tax-payer money for their financial gain no matter what it destroys in the process doesn’t matter.
Susan, their stewardship is about the fish. Water gets too low and the salmon can't make it up streams. So rationing starts, but all their plants, lawns and GOLF COURSE
stay oh so green. It means we sacrifice even more because the stewards know what's best....they certainly care more than anyone else.
Susan, Are you available to run for an elected position? I sure wish we could have elected officials who think and see it as you do!
Agreed, filling in natural wetlands at the golf course destroying land intended for wildlife, building a casino next to a salmon stream where the run off from the parking lots flows into the stream with tire particulates endangering the salmon population, plans to introduce non-native oysters that harm the pristine waters with bio waste for financial gain, and then claim they are good stewards of the land. How is that good stewards of the land? So I ask, how is the JST a good or better steward of the land? Yes they breeched a levee and tried to steal a county road in the process, they have had years to restore salmon to the Dungeness & have failed. Building structures for profit does not steward land.
I can’t like this comment enough
"No one is disputing the drought."
I don't want to put words in his mouth, but Clifford Mass, professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington, has some questions about the dire drought predictions for the state. I will let him speak for himself.
https://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2026/04/when-drought-not-drought.html?m=1
Looking back on the Emergency Drought declaration from the Department of Ecology issued in June, 2025:
"The bottom line in all this is that there was little evidence of drought over our region based on impacts, and such impacts are required to call a situation a drought."
A ruse to justify higher water bills. It’s quite common in California.
I am off topic today but it needs to come to attention how we are spending CC tax money to support contractors out of our county. The school in PA, Public Safety Building PA, Airport Hanger job in PA, now Dental Clinic in Sequim (Tribal). These all have given to Generals out of area using Electrical Contractors from their areas and outside our tax base. When as taxpayers going to wake up in what we allow to happen. We complain about the Tribe and their lack of taxes on land grabs and we sit by and watch about $200m in spending mostly out of our county. Enough ranting today but I am not through fighting to keep OUR money local. Tribes are not the enemy it is us allowing the local money to be spent in Seattle and Tacoma.Wake up CC! Vote for Jake! Oh I forgot the Sequim school project is going the same way. That’s only about 100m more gone!
I see our Callam County Stewart’s are filling in the wetlands off of Owen Brian and 101 they must be using ancestral fill
I noted the LWV varying proclamations of we are a league for everyone. I would like to learn their efforts on behalf of three substantive groups; males, Caucasians and heterosexuals. I see their altruistic goal to be the ending of discrimination when that is impossible. All of us, including LWV members and followers, live and practice our preferences, ( discriminate ), in pleasures, taste, smell, plants, pets, life partners sexual or not, hobbies, sports, living environment, clothing and so much more. Discrimination is ubiquitous, inevitable and inescapable. Unlike the LWV, merit has no bias. Do you want safe functional roads built with the least cost attainable or do you want roads built with Government made up participation percentages of females, dark skin tones, preferred ethnicities and sexual deviancies' ? Being an NGO the LWV can fight for any and all the minority classifications they can imagine and create, but Government has no place in social engineering. What our society calls native Americans no longer live. The native American lifestyle is no longer practiced. Living as American continent inhabitants did prior to European colonization might be possible, but I am confident none of their progeny would forego cell phones, computers, powered mobility, sanitation and transportation systems to live in the past. Today's proclaimed "native" Americans are no more native than any others born to the American continent. In addition to all the aforementioned conveniences today's progeny of "native" Americans also enjoy the time honored ancestral practice of operating casinos. The status of being both a full USA citizen and a sovereign citizen simultaneously is a discrimination worthy of ending.
I see that a Joseph Allen signed - any relation to.
I'm seeing the current ruling party in the state working very hard to: Blow up dams and thus cancel out agricultural production in our state. Closing down forest/timber harvests in our state. Wasting millions on salmon restoration. Driving businesses out of the state with their taxation policies. Pushing hard to not enforce laws, creating anarchy in our county, because the druggie/perv individual nomad is more important than the fabric of our society. At one time history books referred to, "the 47states of the Union and Washington state."
While it is clear that the view of the current snowpack from the average Individuals ability to see it from the view that "we" have here, does appear to be less than it has been in recent years, I am in no way convinced that instantly equates to a so-called "drought"~! Nature has wide variations that have existed for hundreds of millions of years... Yes, we just experienced a very mild Winter here in our community at lower elevations and the optics from our viewpoint does reveal less snow on this side of the mountain range, however, not many can view the MASSIVE interior of the mountain range above and beyond our view to be able to determine the ACTUAL snowpack at the higher elevations~! As "we" have been lied to repeatedly for decades about water issues and the constant so-called "drought conditions" only an idiot would believe these supposed "scientists" about it at this point now. If there was really a concern about water, wouldn't the Jamestown S'Klallam tribe cut their usage of water, being such great "stewards of the land" and all??? Yes, it is always a good practice to use our water resource carefully and without waste, however with the constant attacks from the "fear porn" terrorists about everything on earth, at what point do "we" tell them to go "F" themselves and live our lives reasonably as the REAL stewards of OUR land who love our community~! We just need to be careful not to waste our natural resources, especially including water, and ignore these terrorists in and out of government who obviously can't be trusted in any way~! Remember, we have in recent years been put in extreme danger of the terrorists in government, who have devised and implemented this "water police" BS, so THAT should give everyone concern that the government is THE threat to our water and our very lives now!
Sincerely, Mike
I agree with you. I do not believe this so called 'drought' they are trying to convince us with is real. I also would guess most people are not the 'problem' with the water usage. I think it's just the gov trying to control us, (and/or every aspect of our lives).
Hello, Patriot KX~!
Absolutely, what are the odds that the government lies to us for DECADES about droughts and water shortage issues, the state of Washington (and other states) enacted very strict laws prohibiting anyone from even catching rainwater without a "permit" & forcing us to pay money to the state for OUR water at every turn, they invent this BS "water police" crappola and shove it down all of our throats against our free will, and then, IMMEDIATELY, the very first year that we have a lighter than usual Winter & snow pack, this same lying and deceptive government screams about a drought BEFORE this very wet Spring has any chance to even dry out~??? Of course, those of us who have been paying attention and tracking the criminals of humanity, who have made no secret of their plans to dominate and control OUR water for DECADES (yes DECADES), have been watching these scumbags slowly do exactly that, and now they are claiming that drought conditions exist even though we just had a tremendous downpour with hail two nights ago~! Yes, folks would have to be a "special kind of stupid" to get hysterical enough to turn into a "Chicken Little" and fall for this evil murderous government (AGAIN)~!!! These scumbag fake science - fake scientists who long ago sold us all out and betrayed America and humanity, and their evil Globalist puppeteers, are not to be trusted one bit, especially since they were ALL JUST caught red handed in the largest scale mass murder democide ever recorded in history where they slaughtered MANY millions of innocent people all over the US (and world) with their "safe and effective" COVID death jab that is STILL killing people every single day~! HA~! Ya, right, I wonder why anyone would doubt these criminals of humanity who have not told the truth about ANYTHING as far back as anyone can remember~! You are 100% correct, that the vast majority of folks never "waste water" and it makes absolutely no difference what we do anyway, because as sure as anything these filthy murderous terrorists are going to tighten the screws on everyone anyway! That has always been their plan, and I have seen this exact same "plan" before for over 50 years~!!! Except the Jamestown Indian government clowns of course, because they have all been in on these crimes against humanity right from the beginning~! The "drought" that we need is one where we get rid of these criminals of humanity in and out of government, until there is a scarcity of THEM~! Screw these lying deceptive murderers~! Have a great weekend and keep the faith, because better times are ahead my friend~!!!
Sincerely, Mike
Mike, Sorry for the late reply! I agree with you 100%! I enjoy your thoughts, always! Have a great day! Your Patriot Neighbor, KX
No worries at all, Patriot KX~!
We know how busy folks are these days, so come & go as you please ;-))
Monday afternoon we got a beautifully clear view of the mountains here and it was obvious that a lot of snow is still there, admittedly not as much as the record snowpack of the past couple of years at this time of year, but definitely a substantial amount of snow. There is absolutely no reason to panic or encourage the power mad government to hammer everyone with their usual abusive BS, as if any amount of taxes and government power would have any effect upon the snow in them thar hills anyway~! This constant "fear porn" BS from the insane government has to be stopped because too many are aware that the criminals in government are just using their evil satanic manipulative social engineering garbage as a weapon against Americans. Have a great day and keep up the excellent work because together "we" can remove the thieves and destructive socialist scumbags from government and hopefully the country~! Anyone who does not want our American freedoms and rights can go to any number of other countries to live where they will have few, if any, freedoms and rights~!
Sincerely, Mike
Power in Prayer!
Yes, Patriot Elizabeth Harvey~!
There is tremendous power in prayer ;-)
Of course, also remembering that "God helps those who help themselves"~!!!
We all need to come together to solve our own problems that are being caused by these criminals in our own government~!
Have a great weekend~!
Sincerely, Mike
Mike, I agree with you again. I believe we are 'to do' or 'take actions' where we can, do everything in our mental/physical power, and seek God for guidance as well. Enjoy your day! KX
You know the Lord God said not to concern yourselves with things you can't control HE will provide so condemn the government terrorists and control freaks and there chem trails . I 'm into Gods plan.
Hello, Patriot TLL~!
We do have to wonder exactly what "we" (humans) are and are not capable of controlling, especially given the atrocities of the man-made weather modification and "Chem Trail" programs~? Yes, God's plan is all powerful and perhaps "we" (humans) are to achieve great and even what may now seem "impossible" things~? There are a great many things that "we" (humans) can do but should NOT do. The criminals of humanity are criminals because they always do what they should NOT do... Yes, we do need to come together to see that our country and world changes for the better and the criminals are removed from the picture~!
Have a great weekend~!
Sincerely, Mike
LWV needs to get it together big time. Stop the cherry picking of support. After all equity is one for all and all for one.
