I have been watching the plight of the Seattle Police Department (SPD) and have signed their petition to stop the defunding. I wish I could have been there today at the rally to support the SPD. It is hard to believe what has happened to this beautiful city. The SPD was touted as the most socially advanced police department in the nation. What happened? Did the SPD changed? I don't think so. It is the Seattle government who has abandoned their police to placate the rioters. And I say rioters intentionally.

Chaos in Portland
It has been a while since I have posted to this blog, but given what is going on in our country, I could not help myself.
After watching this video the objective of this group's nightly attacks on the federal court house in Portland is very clear and it is not peaceful. As I watched one of the rioters in the video talk about using violence for their protests(sic), I wandered what Martin Luther King would think about this? I think he would be as appalled as I am by those seeking to destroy the country he sought to change. Thank goodness we still have the freedom of speech these radical groups are seeking to suppress. I hope the rest of the nation will wake up to the radical agenda of these organizations and the destruction they have already brought upon us.

IRS Give Android/iPhone App for Follow Refunds
I loaded the app on my phone. I haven't filed my taxes yet, so I could test the refund status. However, selecting the contact info directly connects to the phone app. It's nice not to have to select or type the number.
