Commentary We humans are odd creatures sometimes. When faced with information that is negative we tend to want to avoid it. If someone says “I have good news and I have bad news,” many of us ask to hear the former first, dreading the latter. At the end of the day, however, it is best…

Why I Left the Democratic Party in Two Examples
Commentary Before I go into two recent examples—one large and one small—that illustrate why I left the Democratic Party over 20 years ago, let me emphasize that I am far from a party person. I don’t vote for candidates because they are from one party or another and hope I never will. It may sound…
Riley Gaines: Defending Female Athletes
Commentary This week marks the 51st anniversary of the enactment of Title IX, the historic federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex at federally funded educational institutions.

President Biden Is Stronger Than Republicans Think
Commentary Many Republicans seem confused by President Joe Biden’s presumed Democrat Party nomination for 2024. I hear many people question how someone can stumble across a stage, randomly say “God Save the Queen,” be confused at times, and be nominated as the oldest president in American history. Republicans and many independents are watching the inflation…
The Brexit Blame Game
Commentary Seven years ago, on June 23, 2016, the British people voted to leave the European Union. That departure didn’t happen until early 2020, and even now, Britain isn’t completely out.

According to the Catholic League, they hold “Midnight Confessional Contests,” awarding…
A New Cold War, an Old Playbook for Victory
Commentary This week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken traveled to China to discuss the rapidly deteriorating relationship between our two countries. It’s safe to say the People’s Republic of China is the United States’ largest global competitor, both militarily and economically. Despite the differences, we have, for a number of years, enjoyed an uneasy détente…

Commentary Traumatic times in human experience are often best understood, across cultures, through the sharing of stories. I have a few personal stories from the COVID restrictions. As a mother, daughter, and human, they illustrate to me that something is deeply wrong. First, I was furious that the daycare centers, playgrounds, and local libraries were…
The Game Is Rigged Against Small Business
Commentary Avery long time ago, in the era of paper tax return forms for state business taxes, I happened to read, perhaps more thoroughly than before, some of the State of Washington tax forms I was filling out for my practice. I’m sure I had read this item more than once, but somehow it reached…

With only eight hours per day and 180 school days per year, one would think that everyone from the newest teacher’s aide…
