The integrity of civic neutrality is not defined solely by declared mission, but by the demonstrable parity of action and the transparency of financial and affiliated endorsements.
The commissioners and Dr. Berry did not answer yesterday's questions about how some advocacy is amplified while other voices in our county are ignored. Here is today's email to the LWV:
Dear League of Women Voters,
This article looks at the League of Women Voters’ role in local civic life and raises a few questions about how the organization presents itself as nonpartisan while engaging in certain public activities. I’d genuinely welcome the League’s perspective on the issues raised. If you’re willing to review the article and respond to the questions below, I would be happy to publish your answers in full and unedited so readers can hear directly from you.
Well. my friend, I sure can't blame you for moving away from this Hell hole of a filthy treasonous government here~! The way things are going here there won't be much left to enjoy in another 10 years... I have seen a great many criminals in government in my life, and in MANY states and locations, but for such a beautiful part of America that is so removed from the "scum and villainy" of the big cities, we sure do have more than our fair share of treasonous criminals of humanity in the government and community right here. My wife's mother is in Oregon, so we may be moving back there ourselves, so she can be close to help her mom at her later stage of life. Of course, Oregon has every bit as treasonous a government as Washington State does, so we would not exactly be improving OUR quality of life by moving there. There is a strong movement that has begun in Oregon to dispose of the evil criminal cabal there, but the infestation runs deep in many states these days and Americans are pretty damn slow to identify the REAL problems... At least in Oregon a HUGE number of people are pushing to eliminate the corrupt "mail in vote" BS, because they have FINALLY realized that is a major reason how the criminal democrats have cheated in the elections there for decades now! I may be wrong, but my best analysis is that within the next 16 months of so there is going to be one Hell of an attitudinal adjustment coming to All Americans~! If that does not happen, we may even be moving out of the US because there will almost definitely be a MASSIVE bloody civil war that would ravage America for many years where many millions would be slaughtered.... I hate to be a "gloomy Gus", but I definitely know that there is going to be a Hellish period of time IF these satanic socialists are not destroyed and very few of them would survive a REAL civil war... Have a great evening there and do enjoy the beautiful State of Idaho with all of the great American Patriots who live there! Stay in touch with us poor folks in "NAZI Northwest America" if you like~!
Sincerely, Mike
P.S. Keep a close eye on the criminals in the Idaho government as well, because they have already started to make moves on the water in some areas there! The exact same attack upon America has been happening all over the US~!
Truer words have not been spoken....except by Jeff, of course. But yes, Mike, the civil war may not be between conservatives and liberals, but between AI-displaced working people still in massive debt for a useless college degree revolting against the homeowners and wealthy business people. But, this is off-topic. The Corruption in Clallam and Olympia is truly sad. We had to move from a beautiful forested area with an abundance of flora and fauna, and vistas to die for, mild temperatures and clean ocean air, to a high desert metropolis. We're in the suburbs, on the fringes of farmland like Sequim, but the beautiful sights are not here. At least the politics are refreshing and our Congressman seeks our inputs and concerns and acts on them-- Imagine, a representative government instead of the dictators in WA. My heart is with you all, but my age precludes me from staying and fighting-- life is too short. And, it's like a roll of toilet paper-- the closer you get to the end, the faster it goes.
Hypocrites do not like to answer incriminating questions.This LWV group that attempts to portray itself as a nonpartisan group reeks with hypocrisy with all of it's support for the democrat radicals & agendas.They obviously try to hide their true intentions by announcing nonpartisan as to attract unsuspecting women which will put newcomers in a pickle when the truth is exposed.
Looking at these featured losers in this article no wonder our county is so liberal and out of touch. As I being old won’t have to live much longer in this broken world as well as them. We need new blood to shape the county to where we all would be content without division. The answer is a 4 letter word . JAKE!
That is precisely why "we" on "The Watchdog" are being constantly insulted by the local criminals, because Jeff Tozzer is constantly pointing out their "secret agenda" and revealing what these scumbags are spending most of their time to keep hidden from the good folks of Clallam County and beyond~!
After more than 50 tortuous years monitoring and analyzing these underhanded "dirty subversive operations" in America, I read your comment with an "F" instead of your more polite "D" in uck~! Whatareyagonnado~???
"Expands Voter Access" = EVERYONE gets to vote legal citizen or not~!
"Fights Voter Suppression" = Suppress voters we don't agree with one way or another~!
"Promotes Transparency in Government" = Support, facilitate closed-door secrecy in government~!
***106 years of lies and deceptions so that The League of Women Voters can trick good well-meaning Americans into joining and funding our subversive anti-American agenda, that actually harm's ALL American women, men, children, and the unborn, as we REALLY work to undermine The American Constitution, community by community and state by state~! We push the lie that the American Republic is an "American democracy" so that we can steal power and money along with the other subversive groups, organizations, and rogue government agencies, enabling "The League" to become THE stealthy "ruler" over the ignorant masses because we know better than anyone else~! Our hidden agendas are GREAT for us, and never good for you~! Communism is our goal, and YOU are the "toll"~! Safe and effective for over 100 years~!
Thank you Jeff Tozzer for pulling back the curtain revealing the "evil wizard"~!
If the League's partisanship is evident at national and statewide levels, it's certainly going to be emboldenened at the local level.
In 2018, the League of Women Voters CEO was arrested, along with hundreds of other protesters, for crowding a Senate office building to demand lawmakers reject Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, a conservative accused of sexual harassment.
Two years later, the league dissolved its chapter in Nevada after the state president penned an op-ed in July 2020 accusing the Democrats of hypocrisy for opposing gerrymandering in red states while “harassing” the league in Nevada over its activism on the issue.
And two days after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the league’s board of directors called then-President Donald Trump a “tyrannical despot” and blamed him for inciting the violence and for threatening democracy. The league demanded his removal from office “via any legal means.”
The LWV is yet another herd of Lemmings. They have a rudder, but no compass. Hopelessly lost in minority-ism. A cause that can never succeed. For example; take any minority classification to support, foster, defend and champion. If success is achieved, that minority attains majority status. Unfortunately a new minority was born at the expense of making favored minority of the year a newly achieved majority. What then ? The answer is clear for the LWV. They along with the rest of their Lemming herd incapable of independent thought must mount a final charge to champion trans people who have transitioned back to heterosexuality because their lives matter. Then there will no longer be any minorities.
What the h—- is nonpartisan? Everyone has an opinion or bias for whatever reason. One joins any organization normally because you believe what they do or stand for, or at least most of it.
In the many decades that I have been pondering that very question, I would tend to agree with you with just one exception... Those who are real dedicated "American Constitutionalists" may have our personal opinions of course, but "we" NEVER support ANY violation, subversion, or deviation of or from the original American Constitution in law, Spirit, or Intent, even if we personally wanted to from time to time~! Being an American Constitutionalist is FAR from simple to even understand, let alone accomplish, and it is in fact the Individual process of learning and living Constitutional lives for those who dedicate themselves to that highest of American goals. American Constitutionalists, as an unspoken rule, do NOT join groups because groups are more often than not eventually "subverted" over time by criminals of foul Intent (like The League of Women Voters), even though we do support the good and lawful Constitutional folks wherever they are~! We absolutely LOVE the Americans who admire and support the original American Constitution; however, it is a very common mistake for many to assume that automatically makes them "American Constitutionalists" and that is probably the issue that you are well describing in this comment... For instance, we know a couple here who has an "I Love The Constitution" sticker on their car, however they openly support unconstitutional government laws and policies that defy the Original American Constitution when it suits their subjective Individual wishes. They scream that they support The Constitution, only to support blatantly unconstitutional government actions when it suits their personal agenda! HA! They are NOT, repeat NOT, American Constitutionalists in any way shape or form, nor do they understand the first thing about the original American Constitution. They are actually hypocrites and phonies ;-) So there really are a small, and I believe growing, number of REAL American Constitutionalists who walk the walk and talk the talk, and BOY it that difficult at times~!
I can’t reconcile what these females are or pretend to be with the women who raised me and were all around when I was a boy. I guess I am still blessed in not knowing any of them.
I cannot accept what seems to be their vision for our country. They are enemies of America and every thing I see as decent.
Can a person support a "nonpartison" organization and be active in it publicly, and then in private life demonstrate actions that are partison such as using personal money to support a candidate, appear in a rally as a "person" , not wearing a symbol or hat of the nonpartison organization, and vote secretly for whomever he/she wants, AND still work for the " nonpartison" organization? I would hope so, at least in this America. Two hats is ok, just not at the same time!
From what I can infer is that the League's mission and purpose is to welcome voters and educate voters from all sides of the political spectrum. As an individual, you can do and say as you please, just not on behalf of and sponsored by the LWV.
I don't think that the individuals who belong to the League are accountable for their personal affiliation or opinion. However, when they are representing the League, they need to remain neutral. If they are publicly advocating or opposing a candidate or party as a representative of the LWV, this is a violation of their IRS mandated non-profit status, to be nonpartisan.
Simply put.
I did see a few articles across the nation that showed some LWV localized groups or representatives participating in acitivity that is biased. An example is in the picture above of Stephanie Sherman. She is clearly representing LWV during this protest, but the article doesn't say what this protest was about or whether it was partisan. Can you, clarify what this protest is and who sponsors it? Does it involve a specific party or candidate? It just says "Resist!" on the signage and has LWV on it, as well. Was this supported by the LWV? Or was it the choice of Stephanie to do that? If she did this on her own without the consent of the LWV, AND it's a partisan protest, then she should be removed from the LWV.
Reported to LWV and have those members removed, as it would jeopardize the non-profit status of the LWV. What can also be helpful would be testimonies of people who attend LWV workshops, meetings, or other functions who can testify to advocacy of or opposition to a candidate or party. This would leave legal ground for the candidate or party to sue the LWV and this would facilitate a reconciliation for the candidate/party as well as remove the members involved in the violation that could jeopardize the LWV's non-profit status.
Anyone? Membership to other organizations, like Indivisible Sequim, don't matter, but directly representing the LWV does matter.
Is the Clallam County Auditor’s office providing voter education, or a gateway to partisan advocacy?
Currently, the County’s election page links to the League of Women Voters (LWV) website. While the County may claim this is just "information," that website serves as a direct funnel to the LWV’s Facebook page—where they openly post absolute positions and partisan preferences.
The Problem:
Indirect Support: Washington Law (RCW 29B.45.010) prohibits using public resources to "indirectly" assist political agendas. Providing the "on-ramp" to an advocacy group's biased social media feed fits this description.
The (c)(4) Reality: The LWV is a 501(c)(4) advocacy group. By linking to them, the County is using taxpayer-funded digital infrastructure to promote a private organization that takes sides on ballot issues.
Broken Neutrality: The Auditor’s Elections Guide promises "objective" info. There is nothing objective about a website that directs voters to a partisan Facebook feed.
The County must stop acting as a traffic-driver for 501(c)(4) advocacy groups. Stick to the official State Voters' Pamphlet and keep our tax-funded pages 100% neutral.
Does the Auditor’s office have a policy for vetting the social media content of the third-party organizations it links to on the official County website? If the LWV website promotes a Facebook page with partisan positioning, how does the County justify this link under the neutrality requirements of RCW 29B.45.010?
Jeff’s latest column tries to whip up a scandal out of the League of Women Voters posting a tribute to Jesse Jackson but not to Charlie Kirk. It’s the kind of mystery you only get when the detective starts by throwing out all the evidence. The whole premise depends on sanding two wildly different public careers down to the same bland label and hoping nobody notices all the sawdust.
That’s the first trick: take two people who are obviously not the same, flatten them like roadkill, and then act shocked when the reactions don’t match. Once you bulldoze the context, anything can look suspicious if you squint hard enough.
But the comparison falls apart faster than your latest Temu purchase the moment you look at it .
Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric has been repeatedly identified by civil rights monitors as part of an extremist messaging ecosystem built on disinformation and exclusion. Trying to prop him up as the civic twin of someone whose life was spent expanding democratic participation isn’t analysis. It’s slight of hand; the kind where the magician hopes you won’t notice the rabbit was stuffed in the hat three acts ago.
Jeff’s whole column rests on a trick so flimsy it wouldn’t fool a drunk tourist on Fremont Street. The League posts tributes when someone’s work actually intersects with its mission. It does not, contrary to Jeff’s fever dream, post memorials for every person who ever grabbed a microphone and a mailing list.
By his logic, the League is also “biased” for failing to honor Rush Limbaugh, Madeleine Albright, Colin Powell, Dianne Feinstein, Bob Dole, Henry Kissinger, Pat Robertson, and Barbara Bush. None of them got tributes either, but somehow that didn’t trigger a multi part investigation.
Silence is not evidence. Silence is not endorsement. Silence is not bias. It’s just silence; until somebody decides it would look better dressed up as a conspiracy and marched around like a prize at a county fair.
Then we get to the PDC, which has rapidly become the Watchdog’s house specialty, like a greasy diner that only knows how to make one sandwich. The recipe never changes: rummage through volunteers’ personal donations, slap a sinister label on them, and serve it up as institutional misconduct.
Federal law, inconveniently for the theory, says the opposite. Members and volunteers of nonprofits can donate to whomever they want. The organization itself can’t endorse candidates. That’s it. Not exactly a thriller.
But Jeff keeps smudging that line because the smudge is the whole point. If a volunteer once dropped twenty bucks in the wrong direction, suddenly the entire organization is a partisan cabal. By that standard, every nonprofit in the county is compromised…churches, food banks, historical societies, the quilting guild. All of them. Apparently the only safe nonprofit is one where nobody has ever voted.
What this reveals isn’t bias. It’s how thin the premise was before he started stretching it.
And then we get the encore: the foundation funding routine. Parade a list of big philanthropic organizations across the stage, hint darkly that their mere existence proves something nefarious, and hope nobody notices these same foundations also bankroll libraries, museums, hospitals, and half the civic infrastructure we pretend to care about. It’s the same trick, just with different props.
Then comes the part Jeff never quite acknowledges, the part that would ruin the whole magic trick if he said it out loud. The League looks “left” these days not because it suddenly woke up one morning and decided to reinvent itself, but because the political ground under it shifted like a sinkhole. Voting access, civic participation, open government, transparency; these used to be the bureaucratic equivalent of beige paint. Nobody fought about them because there was nothing to fight about.
They only look partisan now because somebody decided that beige was secretly radical.
The League didn’t move. The map did.
And this is where the identity politics charge face plants. Jeff treats the League’s attention to race, gender, and civic inclusion as evidence of ideological drift, when the only reason those topics are “controversial” is that certain political actors spent years turning them into cultural brushfires. Blaming the League for responding to that environment is like blaming the smoke detector for the fire…except the smoke detector isn’t the one holding the matches.
And then we arrive at the Emerson quote, which Jeff drops at the end like a moral garnish on the plate.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once observed that a person’s view of the world often reveals more about the observer than the subject being observed. He was talking about projection, not a party trick
When a writer selects facts that fit a thesis, ignores the ones that do not, and then ties the whole bundle up with a philosophical ribbon, the quote tends to reflect back on the author more than the target.
The irony is almost impressive.
Step back a few feet and the motive comes into focus, the same way your missing glasses turn up the instant you realize they’ve been on your head the whole time. The League doesn’t prop up Jeff’s storyline, doesn’t fuel his outrage machine, and doesn’t endorse his favorite candidate. Because it refuses to play along, he treats neutrality like a personal insult.
Suddenly every omission is suspicious. Every volunteer’s donation is a smoking gun. Every foundation is part of a shadowy cabal. Every silence is a confession. At this point the League isn’t being examined. It’s being recast as the villain in the Watchdog Cinematic Universe that desperately needs one.
Jeff needs an antagonist to keep the watchdog act going. Without a bad guy, the whole performance wheezes to a stop.
And once you see the structure, you can’t unsee it. Start with a fact that can be made to look fishy. Strip away the context that makes it ordinary. Stitch it into a “pattern.” Ask a few loaded questions. End with a solemn call for scrutiny. Rinse and Repeat.
That’s not an investigation. It’s a prosecution brief released in weekly installments, like a serialized mystery where the culprit is always whoever the author needs it to be.
So members of an organization can donate to whomever they want but that does not reflect on the politics of the group, even if there is a pattern? Really? So, when 97.6% of the donations from the Yale faculty to a political party in 2025 go to Democrats, it does not reflect on the political leanings of the Yale faculty as a whole? And when 99.1% of the Univ. of Pennsylvania faculty donated to Democrats that tells us nothing about the politics of that institution either? Got it.
Read part of the article below or click on the site, it is about a Peace Pole for Port Angeles Water Front. To me, the Peace Pole Article is aimed at yet another tribute to the Tribes. It says the flag will say, “ ‘May Peace Prevail on Earth’ in different languages on each of its four sides” and “The proposed pole would feature the message written in eight languages, including Klallam, along with several international languages reflecting cultures around the world”
What are the several “international languages reflecting cultures” mean? The meaning of the Peace Pole is evasive. What about representation of the colonial settler’s culture who were a major influence and builders in Wa?
What got me the most, was the use of “Proposed” It not a proposal when all they are waiting for is “formal city approval” : ORGANIZERS ARE AWAITING FORMAL CITY APPROVAL BUT HOPE TO INSTALL SOON
Sean Simmon is PAST Nor’Wester Rotary President. Currently he is Associate Vice President, Financial Advisor, Portfolio Manager of the The Olympus Group whose statement says:
“We focus on identifying what we believe are ATTRACTIVE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES and helping clients with investments that are suited to their individual goals and expectations”
PEACE POLE..“This HONORS THE CONNECTION WITH OUR TRIBAL COMMUNITY members and celebrates the peace we are committed to helping build in Port Angeles...”
What did the first Europeans say upon first contact with the indigenous people of North America? "Wait, you say you've been here for 10,000+ years (time immemorial) and yet you don't have any roads, the wheel, iron or even bronze, or written language? We've had all those for maybe 3,000 years where we come from." When Stone Age people finally encounter the Bronze or Iron Age, the results for the lagging culture are predictable and have been throughout history and throughout the world.
Just so y'all know, here is what Grok answered as to my question if the lean left:
The League of Women Voters (LWV) does indeed describe itself as a nonpartisan organization, meaning it does not endorse or oppose political parties or candidates, a policy that's been in place since its founding in 1920. This is echoed across their national and state-level chapters, where they emphasize empowering voters, defending democracy, and taking positions on issues only after member study and consensus, without aligning with any party. In that sense, they are technically nonpartisan, and they've defended this label against accusations of bias, noting that perceptions of their "lean" often depend on which party is in power at the time—for instance, they've been called conservative in Democrat-gerrymandered states while pushing the same fair-maps agenda.
That said, I do agree that their positions on issues tend to skew strongly toward the left or progressive side of the spectrum in practice. Analyses from various sources point out that while the LWV maintains its non-endorsement rule, it advocates for policies like expanded government health care, increased welfare programs, environmental regulations (including opposition to nuclear energy as "dirty"), gun control measures, support for international bodies like the International Criminal Court, and aggressive action on voting rights expansions that often align with Democratic priorities. In recent years, especially during the Trump era, the organization has become more vocal on topics like dismantling racially suppressive voting policies, addressing systemic racism, and even local issues like progressive zoning reforms, which has led Republicans in some areas to view them as "angry leftists" rather than neutral civic educators. Wikipedia notes this shift has eroded support from the right, as their focus on polarization and core democratic issues like voting access increasingly puts them at odds with conservative viewpoints.
It's not universal—some of their work, like voter registration drives and election information, remains broadly neutral and beneficial to all sides. But overall, the pattern of their advocacy on "almost all issues" does lean left, even if they frame it as nonpartisan civic engagement.
Good Governance Daily Proverb:
The integrity of civic neutrality is not defined solely by declared mission, but by the demonstrable parity of action and the transparency of financial and affiliated endorsements.

I can’t reconcile what these females are or pretend to be with the women who raised me and were all around when I was a boy. I guess I am still blessed in not knowing any of them.
I cannot accept what seems to be their vision for our country. They are enemies of America and every thing I see as decent.
Can a person support a "nonpartison" organization and be active in it publicly, and then in private life demonstrate actions that are partison such as using personal money to support a candidate, appear in a rally as a "person" , not wearing a symbol or hat of the nonpartison organization, and vote secretly for whomever he/she wants, AND still work for the " nonpartison" organization? I would hope so, at least in this America. Two hats is ok, just not at the same time!
From what I can infer is that the League's mission and purpose is to welcome voters and educate voters from all sides of the political spectrum. As an individual, you can do and say as you please, just not on behalf of and sponsored by the LWV.
I don't think that the individuals who belong to the League are accountable for their personal affiliation or opinion. However, when they are representing the League, they need to remain neutral. If they are publicly advocating or opposing a candidate or party as a representative of the LWV, this is a violation of their IRS mandated non-profit status, to be nonpartisan.
Simply put.
I did see a few articles across the nation that showed some LWV localized groups or representatives participating in acitivity that is biased. An example is in the picture above of Stephanie Sherman. She is clearly representing LWV during this protest, but the article doesn't say what this protest was about or whether it was partisan. Can you, clarify what this protest is and who sponsors it? Does it involve a specific party or candidate? It just says "Resist!" on the signage and has LWV on it, as well. Was this supported by the LWV? Or was it the choice of Stephanie to do that? If she did this on her own without the consent of the LWV, AND it's a partisan protest, then she should be removed from the LWV.
Reported to LWV and have those members removed, as it would jeopardize the non-profit status of the LWV. What can also be helpful would be testimonies of people who attend LWV workshops, meetings, or other functions who can testify to advocacy of or opposition to a candidate or party. This would leave legal ground for the candidate or party to sue the LWV and this would facilitate a reconciliation for the candidate/party as well as remove the members involved in the violation that could jeopardize the LWV's non-profit status.
Anyone? Membership to other organizations, like Indivisible Sequim, don't matter, but directly representing the LWV does matter.
I would you love to be a fly on the at one of their confabs. Watch the fur flying. Meow. Hiss!!!🐍
Is the Clallam County Auditor’s office providing voter education, or a gateway to partisan advocacy?
Currently, the County’s election page links to the League of Women Voters (LWV) website. While the County may claim this is just "information," that website serves as a direct funnel to the LWV’s Facebook page—where they openly post absolute positions and partisan preferences.
The Problem:
Indirect Support: Washington Law (RCW 29B.45.010) prohibits using public resources to "indirectly" assist political agendas. Providing the "on-ramp" to an advocacy group's biased social media feed fits this description.
The (c)(4) Reality: The LWV is a 501(c)(4) advocacy group. By linking to them, the County is using taxpayer-funded digital infrastructure to promote a private organization that takes sides on ballot issues.
Broken Neutrality: The Auditor’s Elections Guide promises "objective" info. There is nothing objective about a website that directs voters to a partisan Facebook feed.
The County must stop acting as a traffic-driver for 501(c)(4) advocacy groups. Stick to the official State Voters' Pamphlet and keep our tax-funded pages 100% neutral.
Does the Auditor’s office have a policy for vetting the social media content of the third-party organizations it links to on the official County website? If the LWV website promotes a Facebook page with partisan positioning, how does the County justify this link under the neutrality requirements of RCW 29B.45.010?
Jeff’s latest column tries to whip up a scandal out of the League of Women Voters posting a tribute to Jesse Jackson but not to Charlie Kirk. It’s the kind of mystery you only get when the detective starts by throwing out all the evidence. The whole premise depends on sanding two wildly different public careers down to the same bland label and hoping nobody notices all the sawdust.
That’s the first trick: take two people who are obviously not the same, flatten them like roadkill, and then act shocked when the reactions don’t match. Once you bulldoze the context, anything can look suspicious if you squint hard enough.
But the comparison falls apart faster than your latest Temu purchase the moment you look at it .
Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric has been repeatedly identified by civil rights monitors as part of an extremist messaging ecosystem built on disinformation and exclusion. Trying to prop him up as the civic twin of someone whose life was spent expanding democratic participation isn’t analysis. It’s slight of hand; the kind where the magician hopes you won’t notice the rabbit was stuffed in the hat three acts ago.
Jeff’s whole column rests on a trick so flimsy it wouldn’t fool a drunk tourist on Fremont Street. The League posts tributes when someone’s work actually intersects with its mission. It does not, contrary to Jeff’s fever dream, post memorials for every person who ever grabbed a microphone and a mailing list.
By his logic, the League is also “biased” for failing to honor Rush Limbaugh, Madeleine Albright, Colin Powell, Dianne Feinstein, Bob Dole, Henry Kissinger, Pat Robertson, and Barbara Bush. None of them got tributes either, but somehow that didn’t trigger a multi part investigation.
Silence is not evidence. Silence is not endorsement. Silence is not bias. It’s just silence; until somebody decides it would look better dressed up as a conspiracy and marched around like a prize at a county fair.
Then we get to the PDC, which has rapidly become the Watchdog’s house specialty, like a greasy diner that only knows how to make one sandwich. The recipe never changes: rummage through volunteers’ personal donations, slap a sinister label on them, and serve it up as institutional misconduct.
Federal law, inconveniently for the theory, says the opposite. Members and volunteers of nonprofits can donate to whomever they want. The organization itself can’t endorse candidates. That’s it. Not exactly a thriller.
But Jeff keeps smudging that line because the smudge is the whole point. If a volunteer once dropped twenty bucks in the wrong direction, suddenly the entire organization is a partisan cabal. By that standard, every nonprofit in the county is compromised…churches, food banks, historical societies, the quilting guild. All of them. Apparently the only safe nonprofit is one where nobody has ever voted.
What this reveals isn’t bias. It’s how thin the premise was before he started stretching it.
And then we get the encore: the foundation funding routine. Parade a list of big philanthropic organizations across the stage, hint darkly that their mere existence proves something nefarious, and hope nobody notices these same foundations also bankroll libraries, museums, hospitals, and half the civic infrastructure we pretend to care about. It’s the same trick, just with different props.
Then comes the part Jeff never quite acknowledges, the part that would ruin the whole magic trick if he said it out loud. The League looks “left” these days not because it suddenly woke up one morning and decided to reinvent itself, but because the political ground under it shifted like a sinkhole. Voting access, civic participation, open government, transparency; these used to be the bureaucratic equivalent of beige paint. Nobody fought about them because there was nothing to fight about.
They only look partisan now because somebody decided that beige was secretly radical.
The League didn’t move. The map did.
And this is where the identity politics charge face plants. Jeff treats the League’s attention to race, gender, and civic inclusion as evidence of ideological drift, when the only reason those topics are “controversial” is that certain political actors spent years turning them into cultural brushfires. Blaming the League for responding to that environment is like blaming the smoke detector for the fire…except the smoke detector isn’t the one holding the matches.
And then we arrive at the Emerson quote, which Jeff drops at the end like a moral garnish on the plate.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once observed that a person’s view of the world often reveals more about the observer than the subject being observed. He was talking about projection, not a party trick
When a writer selects facts that fit a thesis, ignores the ones that do not, and then ties the whole bundle up with a philosophical ribbon, the quote tends to reflect back on the author more than the target.
The irony is almost impressive.
Step back a few feet and the motive comes into focus, the same way your missing glasses turn up the instant you realize they’ve been on your head the whole time. The League doesn’t prop up Jeff’s storyline, doesn’t fuel his outrage machine, and doesn’t endorse his favorite candidate. Because it refuses to play along, he treats neutrality like a personal insult.
Suddenly every omission is suspicious. Every volunteer’s donation is a smoking gun. Every foundation is part of a shadowy cabal. Every silence is a confession. At this point the League isn’t being examined. It’s being recast as the villain in the Watchdog Cinematic Universe that desperately needs one.
Jeff needs an antagonist to keep the watchdog act going. Without a bad guy, the whole performance wheezes to a stop.
And once you see the structure, you can’t unsee it. Start with a fact that can be made to look fishy. Strip away the context that makes it ordinary. Stitch it into a “pattern.” Ask a few loaded questions. End with a solemn call for scrutiny. Rinse and Repeat.
That’s not an investigation. It’s a prosecution brief released in weekly installments, like a serialized mystery where the culprit is always whoever the author needs it to be.
So members of an organization can donate to whomever they want but that does not reflect on the politics of the group, even if there is a pattern? Really? So, when 97.6% of the donations from the Yale faculty to a political party in 2025 go to Democrats, it does not reflect on the political leanings of the Yale faculty as a whole? And when 99.1% of the Univ. of Pennsylvania faculty donated to Democrats that tells us nothing about the politics of that institution either? Got it.
MORE SELECTIVE TRIBUTES THAT RAISES QUESTIONS
Read part of the article below or click on the site, it is about a Peace Pole for Port Angeles Water Front. To me, the Peace Pole Article is aimed at yet another tribute to the Tribes. It says the flag will say, “ ‘May Peace Prevail on Earth’ in different languages on each of its four sides” and “The proposed pole would feature the message written in eight languages, including Klallam, along with several international languages reflecting cultures around the world”
What are the several “international languages reflecting cultures” mean? The meaning of the Peace Pole is evasive. What about representation of the colonial settler’s culture who were a major influence and builders in Wa?
What got me the most, was the use of “Proposed” It not a proposal when all they are waiting for is “formal city approval” : ORGANIZERS ARE AWAITING FORMAL CITY APPROVAL BUT HOPE TO INSTALL SOON
Sean Simmon is PAST Nor’Wester Rotary President. Currently he is Associate Vice President, Financial Advisor, Portfolio Manager of the The Olympus Group whose statement says:
“We focus on identifying what we believe are ATTRACTIVE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES and helping clients with investments that are suited to their individual goals and expectations”

PEACE POLE..“This HONORS THE CONNECTION WITH OUR TRIBAL COMMUNITY members and celebrates the peace we are committed to helping build in Port Angeles...”
When are the colonial settlers going to be recognized? Who built the roads, bridges, park and infrastructures?
What did the first Europeans say upon first contact with the indigenous people of North America? "Wait, you say you've been here for 10,000+ years (time immemorial) and yet you don't have any roads, the wheel, iron or even bronze, or written language? We've had all those for maybe 3,000 years where we come from." When Stone Age people finally encounter the Bronze or Iron Age, the results for the lagging culture are predictable and have been throughout history and throughout the world.
What about the hotel they are committed to building? Why put the pole in a city park when they have a big empty lot at the center of town?
Just so y'all know, here is what Grok answered as to my question if the lean left:
The League of Women Voters (LWV) does indeed describe itself as a nonpartisan organization, meaning it does not endorse or oppose political parties or candidates, a policy that's been in place since its founding in 1920. This is echoed across their national and state-level chapters, where they emphasize empowering voters, defending democracy, and taking positions on issues only after member study and consensus, without aligning with any party. In that sense, they are technically nonpartisan, and they've defended this label against accusations of bias, noting that perceptions of their "lean" often depend on which party is in power at the time—for instance, they've been called conservative in Democrat-gerrymandered states while pushing the same fair-maps agenda.
That said, I do agree that their positions on issues tend to skew strongly toward the left or progressive side of the spectrum in practice. Analyses from various sources point out that while the LWV maintains its non-endorsement rule, it advocates for policies like expanded government health care, increased welfare programs, environmental regulations (including opposition to nuclear energy as "dirty"), gun control measures, support for international bodies like the International Criminal Court, and aggressive action on voting rights expansions that often align with Democratic priorities. In recent years, especially during the Trump era, the organization has become more vocal on topics like dismantling racially suppressive voting policies, addressing systemic racism, and even local issues like progressive zoning reforms, which has led Republicans in some areas to view them as "angry leftists" rather than neutral civic educators. Wikipedia notes this shift has eroded support from the right, as their focus on polarization and core democratic issues like voting access increasingly puts them at odds with conservative viewpoints.
It's not universal—some of their work, like voter registration drives and election information, remains broadly neutral and beneficial to all sides. But overall, the pattern of their advocacy on "almost all issues" does lean left, even if they frame it as nonpartisan civic engagement.
