Early Idaho primary results show Republican incumbents ahead, with several legislative races still tight

Republican voters vanquish more of Donald Trump’s marks in Kentucky, Georgia primaries
Thomas Massie and Brad Raffensperger are the latest Republicans to lose in Republican primaries after being targeted by Donald Trump for defeat. The base's eagerness to give Trump what he wants demonstrates that the party continues to function more like a cult than a political party despite Trump's declining popularity.

Washington State’s budget has been shrinking, not growing, despite statements to the contrary by former elected officials
Former elected officials like Governor Chris Gregoire, radio personalities like Charlie Harger, and editorial writers at The Seattle Times continue to irresponsibly compare the state budget between eras using absolute dollars, which doesn't allow for a proper apples-to-apples examination. In relative terms — the only terms worth using for comparisons — the state budget has gotten smaller, even with recent tax and fee increases adopted by the people's elected representatives. Washington State’s budget has been shrinking, not growing, despite statements to the contrary by former elected officials is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.
