We Aint' Got NO Plan! Chaos, distrust, division, frustration, and economic destruction are sucking the life out of a nation united and creating national division. Host Kris Halterman discusses this issue and more with Lorraine Newman and Mike Davis. Is the United States really divided? Is the U.S. broke? Or is this a media and politically driven perception? How should the Governor and the Legislature be handling the reopening of our state, balance the budget, and meet the needs of our state.
We Ain't Got NO Plan!
Washington Democrat Speaker of the House Laurie Jinkins, let us all know – They ain’t got NO plan, so there is NO need to convene the Legislature.So just exactly what are they not planning to do?
NO plan to review the Covid caused massive drop in revenue. Really? Are they just going to let the Governor continue to dictate to us from Olympia? It is a $9 Billion shortfall!
It Takes More than a Megaphone to Create a Safe Space
How’s it going in Chaz (Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone)?
Well, protesters are finding out just what it takes to turn their feelings into effective actions.
Feeding the masses:
They have a great feeling of compassion for the homeless, so they invited them in to share their food. The homeless did more than share, they ate it all. Now there are calls for food donations because the stores that they have tagged are closed.
They feel they should have the right for their more expensive food tastes to be honored – so they have asked that the donations be vegan - soy, oatmeal, veggies, etc. They may discover that the adage beggars cannot be choosers will come into play on this request.

Saturday Morning Live for May 30 2020
Guest Host Vince Buys will interview Perry Eskridge, General Affairs Atty, for the WC Realtors about the recent edict from the Department of Ecology on the first part of the show. Vince and Perry will talk about the Dept. of Ecology's move to side with the extremists and reduce the available water for domestic use from 3000 gallons per day to 500 gallons per day. These properties in rural Whatcom County often have small farms and growing operations on them, so it'll be an interesting interview to say the least. The second half of the program, Vince will speak to State Representative Luanne Van Werven, of the 42nd Dist. about recent issues happening in Washington State without the consent of the state legislature.
RE Sources Tells Supporters, "Cherry Point Industries No Benefit to Whatcom County"
The local chapter of RE Sources for a Sustainable Community sent out a "call to action" to their supporters which urges them to bombard the Whatcom County Council with form letters to ask that the Council vote to extend the Cherry Point Industries moratorium. They made it super-easy for their members to bombard the Council by providing them with a pre-written form letter which they'll submit for them at no cost, this same organization who receives "thousands-of-your-tax-dollars" from this Council. It even contains a special module that let's them add their own personalized touch to the email; then with the click of a button--WOOSH!, off it goes. Their anything-but grassroots message goes directly into the Whatcom County Council's email inbox, to be counted against the economic future and vitality of our community. Shoot, they've even got a handy-dandy button to make it easy-as-pie to forward this email to the members email contact list.

Host Kris Halterman will interview Mark Harmsworth, Washington Policy Center Director, Center for Small Business. How are small businesses doing? What is the real unemployment number for Washington State? Is Governor Inslee’s 4-Phase plan realistic? Will small businesses recover? Is Washington State at the tipping point or past the tipping point for our state’s fiscal solvency?
Saturday Morning Live for May 16 2020
Host Kris Halterman has invited Glen as her guest to talk about the numerous lawsuits that are piling-up against our beloved Inslee, the "Lock down King." Also, on the menu is a discussion about, Title 18, U.S.C., Section 242, "Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law." Is our Governor violating this federal law? Tune-in and call-in if you have questions or concerns about how far will Washingtonians allow the government to violate their civil rights?
LIBERTY ALERTS:
Common Threads NW and The Fourth Corner are co-sponsoring a candidate forum with the Republican candidates for Governor. The forum has been scheduled for June 18th, 2020 at the Port of Bellingham’s, Harbor Center Room. The forum will run from 7 – 9 pm and will be aired lived on KGMI, TVW, YouTube and other media platforms (to be announced later). Mark your calendars because this is an important race for our state. Gov. Inslee has proven that he does not value “all” small businesses equally. The thousands of business owners and their staff need someone that represents them in Olympia and values their contribution to our state and local economies.

He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither.
