@JeffTozzer, thank you for the WestEnder shout out! Now if you can convince my hubby not to move, he is heading to Idaho hunting, so you know when he gets back I won’t hear the end of it, about “Communist Clallam County”.
Either way, “We will be back here together tomorrow”, soooo sooothing…
Idaho is also being inundated by leftists...they don't yet have a strong foothold but they are trying...and moneyed whiners are given WAY too much influence in any government as they have the means to absorb more tax increases and have tax loopholes to minimize their tax burdens and political influence beyond reason.
One should alway question his-story with decernment and critical thought. If we can't trust the current, how can we trust the past? Real eyes, realize, real lies
Keep it up! You are anything but conspiratorial. No false causations or speculative correlations. Just facts some choose to avoid so as not to disturb their little bubble of peace. Keep it up!
The race was so close! It shows exactly why every vote counts. I believe CCWD was a major part of the margin that James Taylor won by. Way to go Jeff!

Port Angeles City Council candidate James Taylor is offering what the status quo can’t: transparency, accountability, and common sense. In his latest piece, Taylor outlines how city policies have become detached from public priorities—and why the current council seems more focused on political optics than tangible results. Taylor’s message is simple: restore balance to city government by RETURNING POWER TO THE PEOPLE IT SERVES. Port Angeles doesn’t need more closed-door planning—it needs open-door leadership.
After the endless recounts when Christine Gregoire ran for governor, I never know when to believe the numbers. I’m still hopeful though that people are reading the Watchdog and gaining awareness; it’s a start.
I am disappointed but not surprised. A large portion of our current population is cognitively impaired. She was an excellent candidate. We need more like her.
I questioned her on something she wrote two separate occasions. Once I provided the correct info and the source, she immediately took her posts down. Admit if you are wrong, or hope not many caught it! She did not deserve any more political clout.
Jeff and CCWD are on top of the news! Jeff, you post the mug shot so we can see the faces of these criminals. That is a big help when needing to be extra careful in our community. This Criminal Justice Tax is another con. I don't want more funding to help the criminal - I want more help for the victims! Get it right, Commissioners. Help the victims!
Asked ChatGPT: Crime is escalating. Is this a result of county policy’s or lack of accountability?
Answer: There is credible evidence that crime is increasing in Clallam County, Washington — and that some of the rise is connected to policy- and resource-gaps, rather than simply inevitable external factors. Below is a breakdown of what the data show, what local officials are saying, and how policy/ accountability issues might play a role. I can dig deeper into specific policy changes if you like.
⸻
📊 What the numbers show
• According to one data aggregator, for the period 2019-2023 the violent crime rate in Clallam County was about 127.8 per 100,000 residents, which is ~20 % above the U.S. average of ~106.2 per 100k. 
• Property crime is also slightly above average in the county (167.0 per 100k vs U.S. average ~163.6) over that same date span. 
• The county’s prosecuting attorney, Mark Nichols, reported in 2023 that felony violent crime prosecutions had nearly doubled from 58 in 2014 to 99 in 2019. 
• Local reporting also shows that law-enforcement staffing is low: One article pointed out that the county has only about 0.8 deputies per 1,000 residents — much lower than national averages (~2.4 per 1,000) — which is a signal of under-resourcing. 
• Another piece reported that many theft/burglary cases were being declined by the prosecutor’s office (or converted to misdemeanors) because of lack of resources, meaning fewer cases are receiving full felony sanctions. 
So yes — increases are happening, and local leaders are acknowledging them.
I DISAGREE.
⸻
🔍 Role of policy, accountability & resources
While no single factor explains the entire increase, there are several policy/ accountability/ resource issues that appear to contribute:
• Under-staffing of law enforcement: The 0.8 deputies per 1,000 residents figure suggests limited personnel capacity, making it harder to proactively patrol, investigate, arrest and prosecute. 
• Prosecutorial/justice-system bottlenecks: When the prosecutor declines or downgrades cases (for example due to budget/staff constraints), the effective consequence is weaker deterrence, which may embolden repeat offenders. 
• Policy/priority decisions: Some commentary suggests the county has not prioritized public-safety staffing to the degree needed: “When offenders from across the region can settle in Clallam County without consequence … that’s not an accident — it’s a policy failure.” 
• Community policing / preventive efforts exist, but may be strained: The Clallam County Sheriff’s Office emphasizes its Community Policing unit and Neighborhood Watch programs.  But if resources are tight and reactive demand is growing, the proactive side may suffer.
• Reporting & transparency tools: The county has recently rolled out online non-emergency crime reporting and crime-maps (for example in Sequim) to engage the public.  These help, but are not sufficient in isolation.
⸻
✅ My assessment: Policy/accountability are part of the story
Given the evidence, it’s fair to say that the escalation in crime in Clallam County is not just a matter of external forces (e.g., national crime trends, economic shifts) but has a meaningful component tied to local resource & policy issues:
• The low number of deputies and constrained prosecutorial capacity point to resource shortfalls.
• The fact that felony cases are being declined or downgraded suggests a systemic accountability gap (i.e., fewer consequences for certain crime categories).
• Policy decisions around staffing, budgeting, priority-setting (public safety vs other spending) likely play a role in how much crime prevention and enforcement can be done.
⸻
⚠️ Important caveats & context
• While the rise is real, Clallam County remains “relatively safe” compared to many jurisdictions. The prosecuting attorney made that point. 
• Crime data can fluctuate significantly especially in smaller population areas — larger percent changes can reflect small absolute numbers.
• Some of the increase may be associated with drug-related activity (the prosecuting attorney noted a “nexus between drug crimes and violent crime”). 
• It isn’t entirely clear from the public data which specific policy changes (e.g., sentencing decisions, diversion programs, budget cuts) have had the most impact — there is still some speculation/interpretation.
⸻
If you like, I can pull up a detailed breakdown of crime by type (violent vs property vs drug) over the past decade for Clallam County and compare to peer counties in Western Washington to see whether Clallam’s policy environment diverges in specific ways. Would you like me to do that?
Could you get data on the bookings into county jail that end in released by prosecutor, charges not filed, and court ordered release without charges being filed and ones that have charges filed but are released and don't follow through on prosecution?
The problem is that the data lags reality. As seen, the trend is tied to data from 2 or more years ago and things are steadily deteriorating...so the numbers matter, but not as much as what is happening on the streets.
We live the unreal reality while the number crunchers wait for more information.
This is the path to revolution, unfortunately...perhaps with enough sincere prayers for truth, justice, liberty, accountability and tough love, miracles will occur!
Thanks to all who participate. It is encouraging to see the new names and contributors on CCWD.☺️
Robert, I keep checking to see if his subscribers have hit the 5K mark yet. I'm sure there are many that read this (including commissioner, where else would they get the news?) but haven't subscribed. Very impressive ; )
I hope The Three Amigos sit down everyday and complain about Jeff because the locals are getting feisty! I cant think of a better way to serve your community than what Jeff does. The losers on NextDoor voted for Ann H.and they can lick their collective wounds.
Thank you Jeff for keeping it real in Clallam County. The truth only hurts ignorant or evil people.
The Sheriff and now AI not shooting straight. At 2.4 per 1,000, we’d have 192 deputies. I wrote the following on October 30.
Please, someone, take a closer look at the 0.82 Sheriff deputies per 1,000 Clallam County residents claim. Something doesn’t add up. A few days ago, AI informed me it couldn’t separate deputies from police and other law enforcement, which totaled 2.3 per 1,000 nationwide overall. Looking just now, AI has 2.4 for just deputies. Well, it is voting season, and even AI knows which side its bread is buttered. GIGO!
To the 0.82 deputies per 1,000, which is 65, BTW, add Forks’ police, Sequim police, Lower Elwha police (I’ve not heard of any for JST and don’t expect any for what is, in my opinion, the largest criminal enterprise around), the Border Patrol, and enforcement officers for the park, Fish and Wildlife, Game, and State Patrol. How we doing? Did I overlook any?
Washington State law enforcement officers’ average pay is 18% above everyone else. I suspect that’s before benefits, so probably 100% above the average worker in Clallam County, I.e., two times.
I can understand the need for higher pay. It’s to cover the stink factor, for officers to hold their noses doing their jobs to the best of their ability while knowing what the situation really is.
65, eh? That would make up 5 U. S. Marine Squads. How much crime would we have with those Marines on the job doing what God intended?
Which God is the question of the day! Smedley Butler, USMC General outed the cabal during FDR administration (which, of course was also corrupted).
The cabal (which included Prescott Bush of the Bush crime empire) offered Butler money and power to take the U.S. administration by force...I believe it was 500,000 Marines and other troops, they thought it would take to do the job.
Butler's outing them 'saved the day' but the criminals were never brought to justice...same as today.
Butler tells how he and the Marines were used to perform coups all over the world, turning nations and provinces into 'banana republics' for the fascist oligarchs who run the world.
As an old peace-time Marine, I can just say that the modern peace-time military is a very frustrating place to be for many. I was an E-4 Corporal working in the mess halls and my lesser ranked 'employees' would hide and smoke dope and whatever while myself and a couple of other dutiful Marines would slave away to prepare meals and then show up at the last minute to help serve the food, and eat their munchies away...and there was nothing I could do... a couple of near-misses of violence erupted but the rank meant nothing and no consequences for 'missing in action'.
This was in the late 70's...with all the DEI and other policies, I can only imagine it being worse now.
The 'lucky' ones are in the hell of combat where teamwork and earned respect bond them to each other and their unit, for better or worse, they have to cooperate to survive... We also are at war...enemies within are 'taking the day'.
We are in a 'cooperate to survive' scenario and as the situation deteriorates we will live and die by our principles, or give them up and roll over to evil.
The local voting has some hopeful indicators, but with just over 22% participating, overall, it's a travesty of the 'democratic' process...maybe it's always been like this, with two minorities battling it out while the masses sleep in front of their 'bread and circuses' entertainment boxes.
What a place we inhabit!😎. USMC General Smedley Butler on the 1933 plot.
Regardless of any opinions on CCW's reporting, the documentation is truly impressive. Every point that's made is accompanied by verifying images of documents, actual emails/texts by policy makers, photos, etc. As a retired Alaska broadcast/print media professional for 35+ years now living in Sequim, I can say unequivocally that CCW's sourcing of proof in whatever claims are being made are outstandingly thorough - and rarely seen in any current news reporting or blogs. Well done!
Hey Laine, I guess you’d have to have defended a subject with written information to realize how far reaching ND is to maintaining their status quo. Pictures of sunsets, okay, pictures of roses, good. However they left the picture of a dead cat, hit by a car posted for six days. I believe the inconsistency in what’s acceptable has very loose boundaries, some for no apparent reason.
Just look at the good folks here that have been dismissed from ND. Makes you wonder what the actual mission is? I’m not suspended for life, just refuse to play. I meant no offense to 3rd graders or anyone else that thinks I was being “mean”!
Thank you, Jeff, for once again pointing out what has been obvious to many for so long - that the progressive policies in place are part of the problem, and not the solution. As for the ND rants, I have challenged them before when rants disparaging your reporting have been published to show me how your receipts are false. Not once has anyone accepted the challenge. Typical social media keyboard warriors.
If our newly-arrived formerly convicted friend and neighbor rapists and robbers were surveyed to determine HOW they heard about Clallam County's welcoming policies, what would we learn?
Is there a website for criminals that lists our perks for offenders? Is there a phone tree which links callers to our the boofing kit distribution center address? Do parole officers receive a commission to plug Clallam County as a destination? Does Clallam Transit's Strait Shot bus brochure feature travel tips to pedophiles?
Someone please educate me on the flow of information that guides these stellar individuals here.
Rita, we ARE the ones hanging out the sign, and it seems rather proudly!

BULLSH*T! I apologize for this outburst, but, this is absolutely assinine! Clallam county needs to vote this sherriff out next year! (if I'm still here I know I will, and many of my neighbors will, too.)
Want to have another outburst? This “advertisement” is very compelling. Wish I had half the medical coverage as these people are afforded...instead, we are threatened to pay our taxes, obey code enforcement or be under the threat of liens, evictions and foreclosures. There's no golden parachute for us.
Jamestown Healing Clinic Opens Volume 43, Issue 8, August 2022
...“Jamestown is proud to provide these services to our community with the support of health organizations like Olympic Medical Center, Jefferson Healthcare, North Olympic Healthcare Network, Forks Hospital and Peninsula Behavioral Health, along with our state legislative team of Steve Tharinger, Mike Chapman and Kevin Van De Wege,”...The Jamestown Healing Clinic will offer wrap-around services to care for the whole person, including primary and dental care, group and individual counseling, case management, transportation to and from clinic and referrals to outside organizations for assistance with vocational training, housing, and other community resources, to enable patients to prepare fully for a return to normal life.”...
'Sorry about the rest of you, who aren't quite so addicted or mentally ill but we have to take resources from you, paid for with debt, so we can coddle the insane and get a lot of grant funding to continue our socialist march into communism and ruin...Once this is accomplished, it will be interesting to see how the 'afflicted' are treated then...we know the history...it doesn't end well for the marginalized, then.🤓
Sorry Mac, didn't mean to jump on your statement. The Leaders of the JST, not the Tribal members, are taking OUR money and profiting beyond belief. Their "Comprehensive Plan" since, at least 1980, has been to "take back" the the Peninsula. And they are. It's just happening without people realizing it. You, my friend, are considered a "guest".
Political law enforcement....the worst of both worlds...the values and actions do matter and I 'believe' 'they' 'believe' they are 'fixing the world' but the proof is in the fruit and all I see is fruit pudding!🤓
So that's why they are shoving them here! We are another 'pilot' project, another medicaid enterprise...not that medicaid shouldn't help but we have 0 say over any of it...I wish them well and hope that their goals are met but have serious doubts that it's anything but another boondoggle.
If they have verifiable proof of long-term effectiveness then kudos to them....I remain skeptical, as always.😎
One element of the problem is jail capacity ( or unwillingness to keep certain criminals who are problematic for staff or budget) and lack of prosecution. I expect a lot of it is word of mouth, like this Bellingham resident describes when talking about similar problems there. https://youtu.be/TdZFqk0Zm_M?si=Nflkl3ELrdZw_6fR
MAT CLINIC, oh excuse me, Healing Center or Wellness Place or “we’ve got it all here for you all for free.” Advertisement all over everywhere you look or go……like come take a free vacation enjoy our resort here in Clallam County with everything you could desire all free. Don’t need to go to Salvation Army & to get help, go to Clallam County Wellness Healing Place Resort where we’ll do it all for you.
The citizens said this exact problem would arise & now it’s here. The county will be handing out free tents with welcoming kits next! Been there done that in Anacortas…..we’re up next you watch. The cities haven’t been better since MAT they are way worse just look around and see it for yourself, WAY WORSE! That is how success is measured!
Put the bird feeders out, they come every time……..
4RD. They are getting free tents and welcome kits as we read, one way or another. It depends on how sad of a story is presented. Look at the litter at the "campsites". Easy come easy go, that's part of the clean ups! Tents mean you don't have to live under any guidelines or rules, but it does make a sad picture for people to see on the news. There are available indoor living arrangements....with rules.
Jeff, on the subject of feeling guilty per your podcast this morning. Here’s a little love note to you from me. What you feel when you wish you had done or said something differently is REGRET. If a person intentionally causes harm, said person should feel GUILTY. Guilt is paralyzing. Regret allows you to move on and do better next time. You’re welcome! 💕
You're right! That's the word I was looking for... I would have regretted not mentioning these criminals if they had victimized another community member. That's a good breakdown.
PS: I'm always amazed at people who say, "I've lived a life without regrets." I'd love to be one of those people, but there's no way I will be. Currently, I regret not using Rogain back in the day :)
If you read his history, he SHOULD have had some guilt for his outrageous behavior, but then our 'stars' and 'heroes' are usually given a pass on moral courage!
It is beautiful music, though!
However, 'doing it my way' gets most of us in trouble!
Doing it 'The High-Way' is a harder path but with better results!🤓
They don’t like people that don’t go with the flow on NextDoor. If you’re not an AI kiss bot, you are removed!
Well, maybe it’s gotten less judgmental, ha ha, like that would ever happen. Don’t get sucked up in the ND vortex to hell. I wasn’t even permanently removed. I could hop back on ND if I started feeling too good about myself.
They love wallowing in dog shit...that's what Nextdoor is for...sadly they being the darkest of the darklings, do wield a disproportionate share of political power in these counties and cities because of their misguided passions.
The only thing that can reach beyond this insanity is the psychology of prayer.
If we remain connected to Higher Self (not an easy task), we can at least maintain our own relative sanity in the midst of the chaos.
I hope the 'new' candidates/electees can and will hold a higher ground but they will need all our support...pray without ceasing and act as inspired.😎
One of us here often monitors what is going on with the "Next-door" crowd and regularly reports that it is FULL of disgusting, Ignorant, and mean-spirited fools who are not working to solve problems, they are THE problems~! As I read the responses to the mere suggestion that people on Next-door also consider reading The Clallam County Watchdog here, I can immediately tell that at least those respondents are either NOT familiar with The Watchdog, and they have never taken time to give it fair consideration, OR they are political fanatics who struggle with VERY serious mental health issues. The consensus here is that the majority of the "Next-door" crowd has nothing positive to contribute to our community, and that the platform is a ridiculous waste of time at best, and destructive in the worst-case scenario. We thank God for Jeff Tozzer, Jake Seegers, and ALL of the great folks here on "The Watchdog" who are playing positive roles to encourage a fair and meaningful discussion of the subjects that directly affect the health and well-being of our community~! Let us well remember the names of these Individuals who have leveled all of these false charges against "The Watchdog" and all of our good and honorable efforts, because I am confident that many of them will appear on future criminal indictments for election fraud and all sorts of other criminal charges~! I regularly encourage ALL Americans to come together and to not allow themselves to be divided, however now it is perfectly clear that we must take note of the names of the true troublemakers within our community and as a group intentionally refuse to help them and refuse to do business with them or their employers as a rule going forward~! This is war and it is the people like these who have been attacking our freedoms and rights all along, so it is now our duty and obligation to do our best to see that "we" as a group do NOT support them in any way, shape, or form. People who would accuse others of the same vile and criminal actions that they themselves are guilty of, must immediately be held accountable and criminally prosecuted for any crimes that they are guilty of~! Our true problems are not the habitual criminals who come into our community, they are those who work to allow & support these criminals to flood into our community~! It is time to get serious about who we do support and who we do NOT want to support here, if we are to have a prayer of improving our community for the better and ridding our community of those who think nothing of doing harm to others~!!!! Sincerely, Mike
There could be some ignorant members of Next-Door who mean well - We have an ageing population and most here are not rocketeers. But one is not going out a limb by saying that the bulk of the users are woeful dumb asses. Just take an in depth look at the fine print agreed to in order to join - then make your own conclusion.
You do make an excellent point~! I am absolutely sure that there are quite a few who "mean well" but have sadly succumbed to the evil mainstream media (CIA) MK Ultra brainwashing programming that we have all be subjected to all of our lives~! HA~! Yes, I am afraid that the "woeful dumb asses" come in all flavors and if they ever wake up, I am sure that the truly "well meaning" ones would change their tunes. I am actually a "contract analyst" so I find your remark about reading the contract to participate in "Next Door" to be most amusing and likely very accurate. I have never been on "Next Door", so I know nothing of the contract that is involved, but I am sure that it is an oppressive socialistic doozy of a freedom screwing one sided game. In all fairness I have to also disclose that the "dumbing down" of Americans has NOT just been restricted to the intentionally failed educational system but has also been conducted by many poisons in the food, water, air, and drug supplies for many decades. Just the fluoride in the municipal water systems and God only knows how many poisoned pharmaceutical drugs have very clearly had catastrophic effects on MANY generations of Americans~! The cumulative effects of all of these very well planned and intentionally administered poisons and toxins has without doubt seriously damages many Americans, especially those who were individually susceptible to them. So, "we" do need to keep in mind that many Americans are NOT in their own minds because they never had a chance and their Ignorance has resulted in a devastating number of them literally being Mentally handicapped"~! The truth about this has actually been coming out very slowly over the years, and over the next several years perhaps everyone will learn more about the subject and God willing we can find ways to help those who have been damaged. For now, all we can do is to stand our ground and refuse to comply with unconstitutional BS for everyone's sake, but later there may be some help for these pitiful people from everything that I/we have been learning... Have a mellow evening and stay dry and safe~!
Those "nonpartisan" labels are just an insane sick joke because they function to give cover to the snakes in the grass like a broken lawnmower in late Springtime~! We need to demand that ALL elected parties declare their political party/affiliation and their Intentions right from the beginning, so that we may have a better opportunity to learn the truth about who we may be voting for~! Some of us have worked very hard for years and even decades to be able to better see through the common deceptions of theses reptiles who aspire to control and dominate Americans, and we are very good at it, however we cannot expect or assume that the average American will be willing or able to develop that higher level of discernment any time soon. Most still tragically appear to be unaware of just how corrupt our elections truly are right here in Clallam County, within the entire State of Washington, and in fact nationwide, so "we" (Americans) have a very LONG way to go before enough people have suffered the effects of the current dictator class of criminals of humanity~! Keep trying, never quit, and keep the faith~!
Get rid of the broken lawnmowers! But I do feel bad when I chop up a snake in the grass, as they aren't insane and trying to usurp and destroy anything.
Maybe the political snakes are just being their snakey little selves and they can't help it...but I think they relish the roles they are playing, so no innocence there.
Boof them right out of orifice! Oh, I just made a funny!🤣
I am here to make sure that these evil criminal political snakes are criminally prosecuted and "disposed of" my friend, so that will be their future~! I also mourn the death of the simple harmless and in fact useful local garter snakes, that I accidently run over or chop up with my tractor, but we are a private nature preserve here, and ALL wildlife is protected as much as possible. This should NEVER be confused with the low IQ Individuals of the "Green Movement" who hysterically allow themselves to be used as "useful idiots" by these criminals of humanity who play them for fools. Ha! I never killed a tree that didn't have in comin'~! Ha~! Anyway, we are simply old-school country folks who would NEVER harm the environment, because we absolutely love and respect our community, country, and world... Enjoy a great day and make the most of it~!
The 'religion' of hate is alive and well in CC and it has a lot of (negative) power.
Visualize it dissipating into the ethers and becoming the nothing that it is.
It's not easy to let the constant insanity not affect us but as long as we can peacefully assemble and speak and write and share towards sanity...we will!🤓
Yes indeed, the "religion" (culture/cult/cabal) of hate is becoming more & more obvious in Clallam County and beyond, which is very interesting because in pushing this "evil" it also wakes up more of the sleeping sheep as a direct result~! It also reinforces the resolve of good Americans who know that this satanic evil is going for the "death blow" to America and ALL Americans. The hateful crowd continues to lose more & more of their own evil minions, they are being thwarted from replacing the ones that they are losing, and the deadly vaccines continue to thin their ranks by scores of "sudden deaths" every single day~! These criminals of humanity running the democrat and RINO criminal syndicate (mafia) has long planned to open the borders of the US to ultimately replace legal Americans with their own bought off and paid for illegal alien criminals who would keep them in power, which is being addressed by President Trump and his administration every day. It has been and will continue to be a long and difficult road to free America and Americans from this tremendous evil, however we no longer have any choice but to absolutely destroy the criminal agenda and eliminate those who have been involved in the destruction of our country and fellow Americans~!
Anytime a contract states that you may not under any circumstances question a decision made by moderators
or post the reason you were put in time out or ask if someone else received the same scrutiny, you will be removed from the site. Do these human rights (free speech) restrictions remind you of something that taken to the next level, became war?
Good for that woman Stacey for sharing your information; unfortunately she ran into the typical close-mindedness that is common out here.
I do a lot of research, not because I doubt what is posted here, but because I want to learn more and often do; and the more I learn, the more I know that these aren’t false conspiracies; there is sound reasoning in the points that are made — but it takes having the ability to reason and use critical thinking to see it. I have no doubt that if someone didn’t like it, they could comment and you wouldn’t block it; and if they asked for an interview, you would do it for the sake of information.
All the problems I’ve seen for myself the years I’ve been out here, I always wondered why it is that way and always assumed it was due to government, since everything trickles down from government in this state, including silencing the opposition; and now that I’m reading the Watchdog I understand why it is that way. It takes a willingness to turn off CNN, MSNBC, FOX, and mainstream local media, and look around to notice this place has problems. Bravo to you, Jeff, for doing what you do!
Reading an article about the County covering up a near mass-casualty event deliberately caused by a sovereign nation and hiding the estimated cost of $15 million to fix it is something I would likely scoff at and disbelieve... but we've all read the emails that prove it happened.
I've only issued three temporary bans.
Dale was the most recent (got pretty graphic with a group of female commenters about adult-themed remarks).
Kevin (I forget why... but I think he was attacking Don right after I met Don at the fair. I couldn't reconcile his attacks against the quiet, thoughtful, kind man I had met and it really ticked me off).
And Matthew (went after Mimi, who can certainly hold her own, but I got protective and offered him multiple warnings before I'd had enough. Plus, he wasn't adding to the conversation).
Compare that to Powermonkey, who I get a kick out of, and makes us all think.
And anyone can attack me; I get a kick out of it. I do have an emotional reaction when others get attacked. We are kind of a rag-tag group of misfits who have been told "your views don't matter," so I get protective when someone comes on here and tries to spread that same message.
Ad hominem attacks get objected and upheld in courts, and I agree with the same being done in social media forums. If people don’t stick to the issue, and instead go off on rants attacking people, they actually lose their ground and deserve to be shut up, because a judge would do the same thing.
It’s true about the feeling that one’s views don’t matter; my husband has experienced it himself, when people don’t talk politics and then somehow something right-leaning gets brought up, and then they all breathe a sigh of relief that they are all right-leaning. It’s like a weight has been removed and people can feel free to be themselves.
There is an awareness in some conservative people out here (myself included) that it’s better not to share their views because it is typically shunned, and they get shunned in the process. It’s not fun to be the one who is shunned, so it’s nice to know there are others that come to your platform and can find that they aren’t alone.
@JeffTozzer, thank you for the WestEnder shout out! Now if you can convince my hubby not to move, he is heading to Idaho hunting, so you know when he gets back I won’t hear the end of it, about “Communist Clallam County”.
Either way, “We will be back here together tomorrow”, soooo sooothing…
Idaho is also being inundated by leftists...they don't yet have a strong foothold but they are trying...and moneyed whiners are given WAY too much influence in any government as they have the means to absorb more tax increases and have tax loopholes to minimize their tax burdens and political influence beyond reason.
Stay Free, Idaho!😎
In my experience, a conspiracy today will be news tomorrow. Telling the truth in an empire of lies is a revolutionary act. Thank you Jeff, stay safe.
How will anyone tell the truth about any historical subject? Who exactly records historical events?
One should alway question his-story with decernment and critical thought. If we can't trust the current, how can we trust the past? Real eyes, realize, real lies
Keep it up! You are anything but conspiratorial. No false causations or speculative correlations. Just facts some choose to avoid so as not to disturb their little bubble of peace. Keep it up!
The race was so close! It shows exactly why every vote counts. I believe CCWD was a major part of the margin that James Taylor won by. Way to go Jeff!

Port Angeles City Council candidate James Taylor is offering what the status quo can’t: transparency, accountability, and common sense. In his latest piece, Taylor outlines how city policies have become detached from public priorities—and why the current council seems more focused on political optics than tangible results. Taylor’s message is simple: restore balance to city government by RETURNING POWER TO THE PEOPLE IT SERVES. Port Angeles doesn’t need more closed-door planning—it needs open-door leadership.

Thanks MK, I jumped the gun, but the figures are promising, especially on the Levy Lift. I'll hold my breath with you. ; )
I started last night. My face is 🟣
After the endless recounts when Christine Gregoire ran for governor, I never know when to believe the numbers. I’m still hopeful though that people are reading the Watchdog and gaining awareness; it’s a start.
Interesting that more than 1/2 of the votes are still left to count at this stage of the game. I wonder how many ballots came in the last day?
I will say was sad to see Mimi not do much better.
I am disappointed but not surprised. A large portion of our current population is cognitively impaired. She was an excellent candidate. We need more like her.
I questioned her on something she wrote two separate occasions. Once I provided the correct info and the source, she immediately took her posts down. Admit if you are wrong, or hope not many caught it! She did not deserve any more political clout.
Kristin, it hurt!
"In Sequim, five positions on the ballot had unopposed candidates." Prediction is for more of the same...
Reason for people to step up & volunteer to serve. Have to live within the City limits.
Does this trigger a runoff re-vote?
They will if its 1 percent difference I think.
That's what I think. Scared of count of the 2/5ths votes remaining. Let's see if the results flip.
Yes, Jennifer! Every vote counts!
So glad the damage can be undone...
Jeff and CCWD are on top of the news! Jeff, you post the mug shot so we can see the faces of these criminals. That is a big help when needing to be extra careful in our community. This Criminal Justice Tax is another con. I don't want more funding to help the criminal - I want more help for the victims! Get it right, Commissioners. Help the victims!
Asked ChatGPT: Crime is escalating. Is this a result of county policy’s or lack of accountability?
Answer: There is credible evidence that crime is increasing in Clallam County, Washington — and that some of the rise is connected to policy- and resource-gaps, rather than simply inevitable external factors. Below is a breakdown of what the data show, what local officials are saying, and how policy/ accountability issues might play a role. I can dig deeper into specific policy changes if you like.
⸻
📊 What the numbers show
• According to one data aggregator, for the period 2019-2023 the violent crime rate in Clallam County was about 127.8 per 100,000 residents, which is ~20 % above the U.S. average of ~106.2 per 100k. 
• Property crime is also slightly above average in the county (167.0 per 100k vs U.S. average ~163.6) over that same date span. 
• The county’s prosecuting attorney, Mark Nichols, reported in 2023 that felony violent crime prosecutions had nearly doubled from 58 in 2014 to 99 in 2019. 
• Local reporting also shows that law-enforcement staffing is low: One article pointed out that the county has only about 0.8 deputies per 1,000 residents — much lower than national averages (~2.4 per 1,000) — which is a signal of under-resourcing. 
• Another piece reported that many theft/burglary cases were being declined by the prosecutor’s office (or converted to misdemeanors) because of lack of resources, meaning fewer cases are receiving full felony sanctions. 
So yes — increases are happening, and local leaders are acknowledging them.
I DISAGREE.
⸻
🔍 Role of policy, accountability & resources
While no single factor explains the entire increase, there are several policy/ accountability/ resource issues that appear to contribute:
• Under-staffing of law enforcement: The 0.8 deputies per 1,000 residents figure suggests limited personnel capacity, making it harder to proactively patrol, investigate, arrest and prosecute. 
• Prosecutorial/justice-system bottlenecks: When the prosecutor declines or downgrades cases (for example due to budget/staff constraints), the effective consequence is weaker deterrence, which may embolden repeat offenders. 
• Policy/priority decisions: Some commentary suggests the county has not prioritized public-safety staffing to the degree needed: “When offenders from across the region can settle in Clallam County without consequence … that’s not an accident — it’s a policy failure.” 
• Community policing / preventive efforts exist, but may be strained: The Clallam County Sheriff’s Office emphasizes its Community Policing unit and Neighborhood Watch programs.  But if resources are tight and reactive demand is growing, the proactive side may suffer.
• Reporting & transparency tools: The county has recently rolled out online non-emergency crime reporting and crime-maps (for example in Sequim) to engage the public.  These help, but are not sufficient in isolation.
⸻
✅ My assessment: Policy/accountability are part of the story
Given the evidence, it’s fair to say that the escalation in crime in Clallam County is not just a matter of external forces (e.g., national crime trends, economic shifts) but has a meaningful component tied to local resource & policy issues:
• The low number of deputies and constrained prosecutorial capacity point to resource shortfalls.
• The fact that felony cases are being declined or downgraded suggests a systemic accountability gap (i.e., fewer consequences for certain crime categories).
• Policy decisions around staffing, budgeting, priority-setting (public safety vs other spending) likely play a role in how much crime prevention and enforcement can be done.
⸻
⚠️ Important caveats & context
• While the rise is real, Clallam County remains “relatively safe” compared to many jurisdictions. The prosecuting attorney made that point. 
• Crime data can fluctuate significantly especially in smaller population areas — larger percent changes can reflect small absolute numbers.
• Some of the increase may be associated with drug-related activity (the prosecuting attorney noted a “nexus between drug crimes and violent crime”). 
• It isn’t entirely clear from the public data which specific policy changes (e.g., sentencing decisions, diversion programs, budget cuts) have had the most impact — there is still some speculation/interpretation.
⸻
If you like, I can pull up a detailed breakdown of crime by type (violent vs property vs drug) over the past decade for Clallam County and compare to peer counties in Western Washington to see whether Clallam’s policy environment diverges in specific ways. Would you like me to do that?
Could you get data on the bookings into county jail that end in released by prosecutor, charges not filed, and court ordered release without charges being filed and ones that have charges filed but are released and don't follow through on prosecution?
The problem is that the data lags reality. As seen, the trend is tied to data from 2 or more years ago and things are steadily deteriorating...so the numbers matter, but not as much as what is happening on the streets.
We live the unreal reality while the number crunchers wait for more information.
This is the path to revolution, unfortunately...perhaps with enough sincere prayers for truth, justice, liberty, accountability and tough love, miracles will occur!
Thanks to all who participate. It is encouraging to see the new names and contributors on CCWD.☺️
Robert, I keep checking to see if his subscribers have hit the 5K mark yet. I'm sure there are many that read this (including commissioner, where else would they get the news?) but haven't subscribed. Very impressive ; )
I hope The Three Amigos sit down everyday and complain about Jeff because the locals are getting feisty! I cant think of a better way to serve your community than what Jeff does. The losers on NextDoor voted for Ann H.and they can lick their collective wounds.
Thank you Jeff for keeping it real in Clallam County. The truth only hurts ignorant or evil people.
james, if you can, I would love to see those figures!
The Sheriff and now AI not shooting straight. At 2.4 per 1,000, we’d have 192 deputies. I wrote the following on October 30.
Please, someone, take a closer look at the 0.82 Sheriff deputies per 1,000 Clallam County residents claim. Something doesn’t add up. A few days ago, AI informed me it couldn’t separate deputies from police and other law enforcement, which totaled 2.3 per 1,000 nationwide overall. Looking just now, AI has 2.4 for just deputies. Well, it is voting season, and even AI knows which side its bread is buttered. GIGO!
To the 0.82 deputies per 1,000, which is 65, BTW, add Forks’ police, Sequim police, Lower Elwha police (I’ve not heard of any for JST and don’t expect any for what is, in my opinion, the largest criminal enterprise around), the Border Patrol, and enforcement officers for the park, Fish and Wildlife, Game, and State Patrol. How we doing? Did I overlook any?
Washington State law enforcement officers’ average pay is 18% above everyone else. I suspect that’s before benefits, so probably 100% above the average worker in Clallam County, I.e., two times.
I can understand the need for higher pay. It’s to cover the stink factor, for officers to hold their noses doing their jobs to the best of their ability while knowing what the situation really is.
65, eh? That would make up 5 U. S. Marine Squads. How much crime would we have with those Marines on the job doing what God intended?
Which God is the question of the day! Smedley Butler, USMC General outed the cabal during FDR administration (which, of course was also corrupted).
The cabal (which included Prescott Bush of the Bush crime empire) offered Butler money and power to take the U.S. administration by force...I believe it was 500,000 Marines and other troops, they thought it would take to do the job.
Butler's outing them 'saved the day' but the criminals were never brought to justice...same as today.
Butler tells how he and the Marines were used to perform coups all over the world, turning nations and provinces into 'banana republics' for the fascist oligarchs who run the world.
As an old peace-time Marine, I can just say that the modern peace-time military is a very frustrating place to be for many. I was an E-4 Corporal working in the mess halls and my lesser ranked 'employees' would hide and smoke dope and whatever while myself and a couple of other dutiful Marines would slave away to prepare meals and then show up at the last minute to help serve the food, and eat their munchies away...and there was nothing I could do... a couple of near-misses of violence erupted but the rank meant nothing and no consequences for 'missing in action'.
This was in the late 70's...with all the DEI and other policies, I can only imagine it being worse now.
The 'lucky' ones are in the hell of combat where teamwork and earned respect bond them to each other and their unit, for better or worse, they have to cooperate to survive... We also are at war...enemies within are 'taking the day'.
We are in a 'cooperate to survive' scenario and as the situation deteriorates we will live and die by our principles, or give them up and roll over to evil.
The local voting has some hopeful indicators, but with just over 22% participating, overall, it's a travesty of the 'democratic' process...maybe it's always been like this, with two minorities battling it out while the masses sleep in front of their 'bread and circuses' entertainment boxes.
What a place we inhabit!😎. USMC General Smedley Butler on the 1933 plot.

Robert, I lived on the Smedley D Butler Marine Corps base in Okinawa
Semper Fidelis!
You never cease to amaze me. In fact most of the participants on CCwatchdog are pretty fascinating people.
I learn so much here or I’m inspired to dig deeper. Thank you for your input. This is what makes societies great!
Thank you for this !
Regardless of any opinions on CCW's reporting, the documentation is truly impressive. Every point that's made is accompanied by verifying images of documents, actual emails/texts by policy makers, photos, etc. As a retired Alaska broadcast/print media professional for 35+ years now living in Sequim, I can say unequivocally that CCW's sourcing of proof in whatever claims are being made are outstandingly thorough - and rarely seen in any current news reporting or blogs. Well done!
This is why Nextdoor people are negative toward JEFF.
They can’t handle the truth or read above a 3rd grade level!
Susan, I think your statement is a bit of a "broad brush" towards participants and quite inaccurate and unkind, in my opinion.
Hey Laine, I guess you’d have to have defended a subject with written information to realize how far reaching ND is to maintaining their status quo. Pictures of sunsets, okay, pictures of roses, good. However they left the picture of a dead cat, hit by a car posted for six days. I believe the inconsistency in what’s acceptable has very loose boundaries, some for no apparent reason.
Just look at the good folks here that have been dismissed from ND. Makes you wonder what the actual mission is? I’m not suspended for life, just refuse to play. I meant no offense to 3rd graders or anyone else that thinks I was being “mean”!
Thank you, Jeff, for once again pointing out what has been obvious to many for so long - that the progressive policies in place are part of the problem, and not the solution. As for the ND rants, I have challenged them before when rants disparaging your reporting have been published to show me how your receipts are false. Not once has anyone accepted the challenge. Typical social media keyboard warriors.
If our newly-arrived formerly convicted friend and neighbor rapists and robbers were surveyed to determine HOW they heard about Clallam County's welcoming policies, what would we learn?
Is there a website for criminals that lists our perks for offenders? Is there a phone tree which links callers to our the boofing kit distribution center address? Do parole officers receive a commission to plug Clallam County as a destination? Does Clallam Transit's Strait Shot bus brochure feature travel tips to pedophiles?
Someone please educate me on the flow of information that guides these stellar individuals here.
Rita, we ARE the ones hanging out the sign, and it seems rather proudly!

BULLSH*T! I apologize for this outburst, but, this is absolutely assinine! Clallam county needs to vote this sherriff out next year! (if I'm still here I know I will, and many of my neighbors will, too.)
Want to have another outburst? This “advertisement” is very compelling. Wish I had half the medical coverage as these people are afforded...instead, we are threatened to pay our taxes, obey code enforcement or be under the threat of liens, evictions and foreclosures. There's no golden parachute for us.

Jamestown Healing Clinic Opens Volume 43, Issue 8, August 2022
...“Jamestown is proud to provide these services to our community with the support of health organizations like Olympic Medical Center, Jefferson Healthcare, North Olympic Healthcare Network, Forks Hospital and Peninsula Behavioral Health, along with our state legislative team of Steve Tharinger, Mike Chapman and Kevin Van De Wege,”...The Jamestown Healing Clinic will offer wrap-around services to care for the whole person, including primary and dental care, group and individual counseling, case management, transportation to and from clinic and referrals to outside organizations for assistance with vocational training, housing, and other community resources, to enable patients to prepare fully for a return to normal life.”...
'Sorry about the rest of you, who aren't quite so addicted or mentally ill but we have to take resources from you, paid for with debt, so we can coddle the insane and get a lot of grant funding to continue our socialist march into communism and ruin...Once this is accomplished, it will be interesting to see how the 'afflicted' are treated then...we know the history...it doesn't end well for the marginalized, then.🤓
Jennifer, smh. WHOSE 'normal' life??? And do we even know if this approach is working? Vocational training?
AFB, Primary AND Dental care? I'm sure Vision care is in there too.
If the tribe pays for it then I say okay, but we all know it's not going to go that way!
Mac, the Tribe doesn't even come close to paying. They are reaping hand over fist in this fraud called "harm reduction."
Sorry Mac, didn't mean to jump on your statement. The Leaders of the JST, not the Tribal members, are taking OUR money and profiting beyond belief. Their "Comprehensive Plan" since, at least 1980, has been to "take back" the the Peninsula. And they are. It's just happening without people realizing it. You, my friend, are considered a "guest".
Political law enforcement....the worst of both worlds...the values and actions do matter and I 'believe' 'they' 'believe' they are 'fixing the world' but the proof is in the fruit and all I see is fruit pudding!🤓
Where's the fruit?😊. They 'claim' no overdose deaths after release from the jail based detox program...another suitably vague 'nothing burger'.
When the jails are socialist, communism is a step behind!
These folks do need treatment...but treatment without accountability is a sham.
"Out the door and back for more!" should be their proud mantra!
Bill Gates is our national medical 'expert'. I guess Brian King is our local medical 'expert' now! 😱
Now there's a t-shirt!
What a load of CCrap.
So that's why they are shoving them here! We are another 'pilot' project, another medicaid enterprise...not that medicaid shouldn't help but we have 0 say over any of it...I wish them well and hope that their goals are met but have serious doubts that it's anything but another boondoggle.
If they have verifiable proof of long-term effectiveness then kudos to them....I remain skeptical, as always.😎
One element of the problem is jail capacity ( or unwillingness to keep certain criminals who are problematic for staff or budget) and lack of prosecution. I expect a lot of it is word of mouth, like this Bellingham resident describes when talking about similar problems there. https://youtu.be/TdZFqk0Zm_M?si=Nflkl3ELrdZw_6fR
MAT CLINIC, oh excuse me, Healing Center or Wellness Place or “we’ve got it all here for you all for free.” Advertisement all over everywhere you look or go……like come take a free vacation enjoy our resort here in Clallam County with everything you could desire all free. Don’t need to go to Salvation Army & to get help, go to Clallam County Wellness Healing Place Resort where we’ll do it all for you.
The citizens said this exact problem would arise & now it’s here. The county will be handing out free tents with welcoming kits next! Been there done that in Anacortas…..we’re up next you watch. The cities haven’t been better since MAT they are way worse just look around and see it for yourself, WAY WORSE! That is how success is measured!
Put the bird feeders out, they come every time……..
4RD. They are getting free tents and welcome kits as we read, one way or another. It depends on how sad of a story is presented. Look at the litter at the "campsites". Easy come easy go, that's part of the clean ups! Tents mean you don't have to live under any guidelines or rules, but it does make a sad picture for people to see on the news. There are available indoor living arrangements....with rules.
Jeff, on the subject of feeling guilty per your podcast this morning. Here’s a little love note to you from me. What you feel when you wish you had done or said something differently is REGRET. If a person intentionally causes harm, said person should feel GUILTY. Guilt is paralyzing. Regret allows you to move on and do better next time. You’re welcome! 💕
You're right! That's the word I was looking for... I would have regretted not mentioning these criminals if they had victimized another community member. That's a good breakdown.
PS: I'm always amazed at people who say, "I've lived a life without regrets." I'd love to be one of those people, but there's no way I will be. Currently, I regret not using Rogain back in the day :)
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all, and I stood tall
And did it my way
If you read his history, he SHOULD have had some guilt for his outrageous behavior, but then our 'stars' and 'heroes' are usually given a pass on moral courage!
It is beautiful music, though!
However, 'doing it my way' gets most of us in trouble!
Doing it 'The High-Way' is a harder path but with better results!🤓
ahhh, love me some Frankie... or Paul Anka...
It's the No Rogaine Pain Strain syndrome...you deserve a retro-active grant for that!
Let's start a 'NoFundMe' campaign for the no-Rogaine afflicted!🤣
My only regret is that I wasn't born somebody else.
Hey, I read something you wrote and really liked it!
Good reminder for all! Thanks, Counselor!😊
Jeff: I will bet you that none of those who pupa you will answer?
They usually don't. That's why they like Nextdoor... they can dog pile without me being able to defend myself.
If I ever get to meet Marge in person I am giving her a big hug
Marge gives great hugs! She is the sweetest person, and it kills me to see how people treat her on Nextdoor.
She must be an angel...send her more prayers!😇
They don’t like people that don’t go with the flow on NextDoor. If you’re not an AI kiss bot, you are removed!
Well, maybe it’s gotten less judgmental, ha ha, like that would ever happen. Don’t get sucked up in the ND vortex to hell. I wasn’t even permanently removed. I could hop back on ND if I started feeling too good about myself.
Me too Susie. She is one trooper who doesn't quit!
Marge Simpson?🤣
Nextdoor + Bluesky = Steaming piles of liberal excrement!
They love wallowing in dog shit...that's what Nextdoor is for...sadly they being the darkest of the darklings, do wield a disproportionate share of political power in these counties and cities because of their misguided passions.
The only thing that can reach beyond this insanity is the psychology of prayer.
If we remain connected to Higher Self (not an easy task), we can at least maintain our own relative sanity in the midst of the chaos.
I hope the 'new' candidates/electees can and will hold a higher ground but they will need all our support...pray without ceasing and act as inspired.😎
Before I permanently left ND I looked up the stats of readers satisfaction with it. Go figure, it kind of sucks in the NW.
My friend in S Carolina likes it!
One of us here often monitors what is going on with the "Next-door" crowd and regularly reports that it is FULL of disgusting, Ignorant, and mean-spirited fools who are not working to solve problems, they are THE problems~! As I read the responses to the mere suggestion that people on Next-door also consider reading The Clallam County Watchdog here, I can immediately tell that at least those respondents are either NOT familiar with The Watchdog, and they have never taken time to give it fair consideration, OR they are political fanatics who struggle with VERY serious mental health issues. The consensus here is that the majority of the "Next-door" crowd has nothing positive to contribute to our community, and that the platform is a ridiculous waste of time at best, and destructive in the worst-case scenario. We thank God for Jeff Tozzer, Jake Seegers, and ALL of the great folks here on "The Watchdog" who are playing positive roles to encourage a fair and meaningful discussion of the subjects that directly affect the health and well-being of our community~! Let us well remember the names of these Individuals who have leveled all of these false charges against "The Watchdog" and all of our good and honorable efforts, because I am confident that many of them will appear on future criminal indictments for election fraud and all sorts of other criminal charges~! I regularly encourage ALL Americans to come together and to not allow themselves to be divided, however now it is perfectly clear that we must take note of the names of the true troublemakers within our community and as a group intentionally refuse to help them and refuse to do business with them or their employers as a rule going forward~! This is war and it is the people like these who have been attacking our freedoms and rights all along, so it is now our duty and obligation to do our best to see that "we" as a group do NOT support them in any way, shape, or form. People who would accuse others of the same vile and criminal actions that they themselves are guilty of, must immediately be held accountable and criminally prosecuted for any crimes that they are guilty of~! Our true problems are not the habitual criminals who come into our community, they are those who work to allow & support these criminals to flood into our community~! It is time to get serious about who we do support and who we do NOT want to support here, if we are to have a prayer of improving our community for the better and ridding our community of those who think nothing of doing harm to others~!!!! Sincerely, Mike
There could be some ignorant members of Next-Door who mean well - We have an ageing population and most here are not rocketeers. But one is not going out a limb by saying that the bulk of the users are woeful dumb asses. Just take an in depth look at the fine print agreed to in order to join - then make your own conclusion.
Hello Patriot, Private man~!
You do make an excellent point~! I am absolutely sure that there are quite a few who "mean well" but have sadly succumbed to the evil mainstream media (CIA) MK Ultra brainwashing programming that we have all be subjected to all of our lives~! HA~! Yes, I am afraid that the "woeful dumb asses" come in all flavors and if they ever wake up, I am sure that the truly "well meaning" ones would change their tunes. I am actually a "contract analyst" so I find your remark about reading the contract to participate in "Next Door" to be most amusing and likely very accurate. I have never been on "Next Door", so I know nothing of the contract that is involved, but I am sure that it is an oppressive socialistic doozy of a freedom screwing one sided game. In all fairness I have to also disclose that the "dumbing down" of Americans has NOT just been restricted to the intentionally failed educational system but has also been conducted by many poisons in the food, water, air, and drug supplies for many decades. Just the fluoride in the municipal water systems and God only knows how many poisoned pharmaceutical drugs have very clearly had catastrophic effects on MANY generations of Americans~! The cumulative effects of all of these very well planned and intentionally administered poisons and toxins has without doubt seriously damages many Americans, especially those who were individually susceptible to them. So, "we" do need to keep in mind that many Americans are NOT in their own minds because they never had a chance and their Ignorance has resulted in a devastating number of them literally being Mentally handicapped"~! The truth about this has actually been coming out very slowly over the years, and over the next several years perhaps everyone will learn more about the subject and God willing we can find ways to help those who have been damaged. For now, all we can do is to stand our ground and refuse to comply with unconstitutional BS for everyone's sake, but later there may be some help for these pitiful people from everything that I/we have been learning... Have a mellow evening and stay dry and safe~!
Sincerely, Mike
Start with doing away with the 'non-partisan' labels.
Yes Patriot AFB~!
Those "nonpartisan" labels are just an insane sick joke because they function to give cover to the snakes in the grass like a broken lawnmower in late Springtime~! We need to demand that ALL elected parties declare their political party/affiliation and their Intentions right from the beginning, so that we may have a better opportunity to learn the truth about who we may be voting for~! Some of us have worked very hard for years and even decades to be able to better see through the common deceptions of theses reptiles who aspire to control and dominate Americans, and we are very good at it, however we cannot expect or assume that the average American will be willing or able to develop that higher level of discernment any time soon. Most still tragically appear to be unaware of just how corrupt our elections truly are right here in Clallam County, within the entire State of Washington, and in fact nationwide, so "we" (Americans) have a very LONG way to go before enough people have suffered the effects of the current dictator class of criminals of humanity~! Keep trying, never quit, and keep the faith~!
Sincerely, Mike
Get rid of the broken lawnmowers! But I do feel bad when I chop up a snake in the grass, as they aren't insane and trying to usurp and destroy anything.
Maybe the political snakes are just being their snakey little selves and they can't help it...but I think they relish the roles they are playing, so no innocence there.
Boof them right out of orifice! Oh, I just made a funny!🤣
HA~! HA~! HA~!
Yes, "BOOF" them out~! ;-)
I am here to make sure that these evil criminal political snakes are criminally prosecuted and "disposed of" my friend, so that will be their future~! I also mourn the death of the simple harmless and in fact useful local garter snakes, that I accidently run over or chop up with my tractor, but we are a private nature preserve here, and ALL wildlife is protected as much as possible. This should NEVER be confused with the low IQ Individuals of the "Green Movement" who hysterically allow themselves to be used as "useful idiots" by these criminals of humanity who play them for fools. Ha! I never killed a tree that didn't have in comin'~! Ha~! Anyway, we are simply old-school country folks who would NEVER harm the environment, because we absolutely love and respect our community, country, and world... Enjoy a great day and make the most of it~!
Sincerely, Mike
The 'religion' of hate is alive and well in CC and it has a lot of (negative) power.
Visualize it dissipating into the ethers and becoming the nothing that it is.
It's not easy to let the constant insanity not affect us but as long as we can peacefully assemble and speak and write and share towards sanity...we will!🤓
Good morning, Patriot Robert James~!
Yes indeed, the "religion" (culture/cult/cabal) of hate is becoming more & more obvious in Clallam County and beyond, which is very interesting because in pushing this "evil" it also wakes up more of the sleeping sheep as a direct result~! It also reinforces the resolve of good Americans who know that this satanic evil is going for the "death blow" to America and ALL Americans. The hateful crowd continues to lose more & more of their own evil minions, they are being thwarted from replacing the ones that they are losing, and the deadly vaccines continue to thin their ranks by scores of "sudden deaths" every single day~! These criminals of humanity running the democrat and RINO criminal syndicate (mafia) has long planned to open the borders of the US to ultimately replace legal Americans with their own bought off and paid for illegal alien criminals who would keep them in power, which is being addressed by President Trump and his administration every day. It has been and will continue to be a long and difficult road to free America and Americans from this tremendous evil, however we no longer have any choice but to absolutely destroy the criminal agenda and eliminate those who have been involved in the destruction of our country and fellow Americans~!
Easy no, but necessary YES~!
Sincerely, Mike
Anytime a contract states that you may not under any circumstances question a decision made by moderators
or post the reason you were put in time out or ask if someone else received the same scrutiny, you will be removed from the site. Do these human rights (free speech) restrictions remind you of something that taken to the next level, became war?
Good for that woman Stacey for sharing your information; unfortunately she ran into the typical close-mindedness that is common out here.
I do a lot of research, not because I doubt what is posted here, but because I want to learn more and often do; and the more I learn, the more I know that these aren’t false conspiracies; there is sound reasoning in the points that are made — but it takes having the ability to reason and use critical thinking to see it. I have no doubt that if someone didn’t like it, they could comment and you wouldn’t block it; and if they asked for an interview, you would do it for the sake of information.
All the problems I’ve seen for myself the years I’ve been out here, I always wondered why it is that way and always assumed it was due to government, since everything trickles down from government in this state, including silencing the opposition; and now that I’m reading the Watchdog I understand why it is that way. It takes a willingness to turn off CNN, MSNBC, FOX, and mainstream local media, and look around to notice this place has problems. Bravo to you, Jeff, for doing what you do!
I get it.
Reading an article about the County covering up a near mass-casualty event deliberately caused by a sovereign nation and hiding the estimated cost of $15 million to fix it is something I would likely scoff at and disbelieve... but we've all read the emails that prove it happened.
I've only issued three temporary bans.
Dale was the most recent (got pretty graphic with a group of female commenters about adult-themed remarks).
Kevin (I forget why... but I think he was attacking Don right after I met Don at the fair. I couldn't reconcile his attacks against the quiet, thoughtful, kind man I had met and it really ticked me off).
And Matthew (went after Mimi, who can certainly hold her own, but I got protective and offered him multiple warnings before I'd had enough. Plus, he wasn't adding to the conversation).
Compare that to Powermonkey, who I get a kick out of, and makes us all think.
And anyone can attack me; I get a kick out of it. I do have an emotional reaction when others get attacked. We are kind of a rag-tag group of misfits who have been told "your views don't matter," so I get protective when someone comes on here and tries to spread that same message.
Ad hominem attacks get objected and upheld in courts, and I agree with the same being done in social media forums. If people don’t stick to the issue, and instead go off on rants attacking people, they actually lose their ground and deserve to be shut up, because a judge would do the same thing.
It’s true about the feeling that one’s views don’t matter; my husband has experienced it himself, when people don’t talk politics and then somehow something right-leaning gets brought up, and then they all breathe a sigh of relief that they are all right-leaning. It’s like a weight has been removed and people can feel free to be themselves.
There is an awareness in some conservative people out here (myself included) that it’s better not to share their views because it is typically shunned, and they get shunned in the process. It’s not fun to be the one who is shunned, so it’s nice to know there are others that come to your platform and can find that they aren’t alone.

Jeff, keep up the good work. It is always the same people who complain about you on Nd. They just follow like sheep.
Great article.
