School Days School Days - Dear Old Golden Rule Days
Over the years we have had many conversations with teachers. This article is assembled from those conversations and a very recent conversation we have had that relates to the struggle to give our children a quality educational experience, get children and teachers back into the classroom, and address everyone's concerns for public health. Our sources have all asked to remain anonymous.
A Public Teacher’s Perspective
We are moving from remote teaching to teaching and working some of the time at the school. Right now, it is a loose schedule. As I re-join the community, I feel as though I am in the Twilight Zone. Every action and plan are oriented around a tight schedule, distancing, and the separation of children from one another.

Special Message from Kris Halterman:
It has been my greatest honor to host Saturday Morning Live for the past eight plus years. Saturday Morning Live launched on June 12th, 2012 with the generosity of Dick Donahue and others who sponsored the one hour radio show. During this time I have met, spoken with, and interviewed a wide variety of local, state, and national personalities and experts in their field, who shared their knowledge about things that affect our ability to live freely in Washington State.
It is my greatest hope that by expanding the people who host this show we will grow this passion of mine, this ideal, and this movement, that to Work - Live - and Play -- 'freely', in this wonderful place we call home -- we all must strive to retain and restore our personal liberties everyday.

Sheeple or People?
Today's guests EJ Ledet and Dean Gano address coronaviruses and real science which has been used to instill panic and division not just nationwide, but within families and friends. Are we sheeple? Or are we educated people? Have we forgotten that there is a great cost to isolation that is not as readily seen as a virus.
EJ and Dean have recently set up a new website where you can read their researched writings on this and many other things to come. https://www.fact-checked.org
FEAR (False Evidence Appearing Real); Inslee Administration illegal lockdown uses FEAR to a compliant public
Governor Inslee’s Illegal Lockdown Orders, by Dean L. Gano -- 11/25/2020
The governor’s orders are illegal on several fronts. First, he has no right as a Governor to write laws. His job is to enforce the laws our elected congress passes. Secondly, the act of locking someone down, be it a business or a person, aside from being unprecedented, is a direct violation of the U.S. Constitution. State officials can justify a lockdown under the traditional police powers of the state if they could show they are actually protecting the health of the citizenry, but they cannot.
The original concept of state powers being able to do whatever they wanted was modified by the Fourteenth Amendment, which prohibits the states from depriving any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.
