Everett gives ‘Navy town’ run for its money

In our 31 years in the Navy we have never seen a homecoming such as this. Our daughter is on the USS Lincoln and we were there for the homecoming and we walked with her in the parade. We want to thank the mayor, the planning committee and the city for honoring our men and women in the military. Bremerton has always been known as “the Navy town,” but Everett has certainly stolen its thunder. Thanks for the warmth of your citizens. It was evident with every handshake and smile.

Comment: White House didn’t need Trump’s Mar-a-Lago makeover

The ‘billionaire’s ballroom’ will stand as a garish monument to one man’s taste for gold-plated everything.

In an official White House photo, President Lyndon Johnson shakes hands with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. after signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, in Washington on Aug. 6, 1965. The Supreme Court has shown a willingness to chip away at the landmark civil rights legislation. A Louisiana case could unravel much of its remaining power. (Yoichi Okamoto/Lyndon B.

Comment: Ruling could effectively end landmark voting rights act

If the Supreme Court throws out Section 2 of the act, Republicans could gain up to 19 more seats.
