Depends on where you mean. Spokane city is pretty purple and the city council is more left-leaning than ever: https://www.inlander.com/news/progressives-and-moderates-dominate-conservatives-in-local-races-flipping-a-spokane-council-seat-and-ousting/article_ef72e2af-a02f-4a5f-966d-9813d8ba585f.html . They just passed a ban on algorithmic rent price fixing by landlords for example.

When you leave Spokane, the closer you get to Idaho the more regressive things get. Spokane and Spokane Valley are night and day in my view - no good reason for going into the latter. The same is true when you head north (hwy 2, 395) and south, at least until you get to Pullman. I haven’t spent much time in central WA but my impression is that it’s pretty right-wing compared to Spokane or Puget Sound, so yeah.

That said, I’ve lived in Seattle and the S. Sound and once you get out of the city proper and away from the Eastside and close-in suburbs like Issaquah (Fall City, Snoqualmie and North Bend are probably considered suburbs now too!), and also out of places like Olympia/Tumwater, it gets redneck in a hurry.

Gotta protect Private Property at any expense. What next, will people be stealing slaves in America?

It’s only foul if the dead person is white and Christian. Funny the sad excuse for a news article didn’t mention whether the decaying body qualified as a Master Race member or not. You’d think the wife would have known the details but the sad excuse for a news article doesn’t say what happened to her. Maybe the cops killed her with their toys.

Times are hard, period-authentic gear is expensive. What machine gun would a self-respecting Nazi have used? “A representative for the investment group that initiated the eviction” - oh great, the building was owned by Private Equity - the Nazi should have launched V2 at it.

has … incredible capabilities

What kind of news story writing is this? Just what incredible capabilities does the machine have? Tell me! Name them. “Incredible abilities” wastes two whole words in this CBS news story and they tell me exactly nothing, they just take up space. This is more like the writing I’d expect from a high schooler, or from bad AI.

Why is the NYPD helping ICE? Hasn’t the mayor banned them from doing so? If not I would hope the future mayor will issue a no-helpy-ice order to them.
