There are states that are not dedicated to closing legacy power production and replacing it with wind and solar. WA actually passed a law raising the gas tax $.50 on Jan 1/23. WA state “lost” $1B dollars of Covid stimulus money meant for unemployed workers. The theft? African scanners broke into the government computers. Sounds plausible right? Except an investigation found that the firewalls and security had been turned off allowing the theft. The lady in charge of of Employment, coincidentally a money bundler for political campaigns. She left her job for another in DC for the Biden administration in 2020, surely purchasing many favors along the way.
THAT is Washington State. I have lived here since the early 50’s, and loved this place. Truth is it is gone, never to return. The most merciful thing that could happen to it is the Nisqually Quake. It is predicted to take everything West of I-5 and destroy it.
Washington has a good chance of replacing Sen. Murray. (ignore the polls)
