Sunday is the feast of St. Theresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein), the Patroness of Europe. She offered her life and her martyrdom at Auschwitz for the sake of the suffering Jewish people and for the peace of the world.

As Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler attempts to hold onto her seat, she is in for what's being described as the "fight of her political life." This must be why she's decided to run to the hard right and endorse President Trump for reelection. #WA03

There are a lot of good people out there who have voted Republican in the past, and to them I say, there's a home for you in the Democratic Party. We are people of faith as well as skeptics, people with management experience as well as labor. Together let's put country first.

What's left of moderate wing of GOP is failing to advance in gubernatorial race and in A.G. race. Instead candidates are solid pro Trump (Culp/Larkin) To say nothing GOP shutout in 10th CD and Lt. Gov race. #waelex

Favorite Sheen quote:
“I had a fellow scream at me at a demonstration recently, 'Mr. Sheen, are you a Communist?' I said, 'Oh, no, no, no. I'm far worse than a Communist. I'm a Catholic.’”
Happy 80th, Martin Sheen!
