The following remarks were delivered to the Whatcom County Lincoln Day Dinner on March 23, 2024, in Ferndale, Washington.
I struggled with what to talk to you about tonight.
Well, that’s not true. I didn't struggle with what to talk to you about – I struggled with whether I was brave enough to say what I wanted to say.
When I'm invited to speak to groups, I don't want to offend anyone or be too controversial. So, I reached out to a few of your fellow party members to ask whether any topics were off limits or wouldn't go over well with the crowd.
I got some good advice.
Then I decided to ignore that good advice entirely.
Too much is at stake to be polite.
As we sit here tonight, we are in the final battle of a war.
A war that has pit sanity against insanity.
Pragmatism against idealism.
A war that has sacrificed the public good, in favor of a twisted idea of progress.
It's a war that began long before I moved here 15 years ago. It started silently and it was mostly waged in the shadows.
Most of us didn't even realize that a war was being fought. We were too caught up in our own lives and our own problems. ...
Happy Holidays Brandi, My family and I are new to WA and we came from the dark side of the country Florida at least that what the liberals think here in the PNW. I have just one simple question to you. What is it going to take for the citizens of Washington to wake up and realize that the people in Olympia do not have their best interest at heart?
I guess the constitution doesn't mean much here as well as elections as the citizens continue to elect these people.
How does a 43 year old socialist get elected mayor of the biggest city in the state with a 9 billion dollar budget and she has never held any elected office?
Feel free to comment on this if you can. I love your podcast and no nonsense approach to the craziness that is Washington state politics.
@BrandiKruse I paid $5.00 to make d*mn sure you got this post!
