@WheelerRipWA 457b or bust. Pensions can only ever be promises and who would trust politicians?

Washington State Democrats have terminated pension plans for police officers & firefighters, raiding billions to pay for Democrat Spending
It has become the first state in US history to terminate a public employee pension plan.
The legislature in Olympia passed the bill and the related federal lawsuit filed in Seattle.
Governor Bob Ferguson, a Democrat, signed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2034 (E2SHB 2034) into law.
The termination of LEOFF Plan 1 takes effect June 30, 2029.
Details:
🔺️LEOFF Plan 1 covers law enforcement officers and firefighters hired before October 1, 1977.
🔺️It closed to new members decades ago and now serves about 5,500-6,000 mostly retired members and beneficiaries.
🔺️As of the state's own June 2024 actuarial valuation, the plan stood at 160% funded, with a substantial surplus.
🔺️No employer or employee contributions have been required for 25 years since it hit full funding around 2000.
🔺️Projections showed it heading to over 200% funded with a $4.3 billion surplus by 2029.
🔺️The law terminates the existing plan and "restates" it into a new system.
🔺️It transfers enough assets to the new fund to leave it at 110% funded, then sweeps the rest - expected at $3.9 billion - into a pension surplus holding account.
🔺️From there, politicians can redirect it for general spending.
🔺️$569 million goes to the Climate Commitment Account and $880 million goes to refill the rainy day fund that Democrats already drained to cover a deficit they created through overspending.
Other portions eyed climate programs and general budget gaps.
The Bill was sponsored by Rep. Timm Ormsby (D-Spokane), it passed the House 55-39 (every yes vote was a Democrat, while republicans voted no).
The state claims members have a contractual right only to their benefits, not surplus assets, and that ~80% of original contributions came from the state. Critics call this a betrayal of the deal for first responders who risk their lives to protect the public.
Retired first responders sued with former King County Sheriff and Congressman Dave Reichert (R), who served as a LEOFF 1 member since 1972 being the lead plaintiff.
Other plaintiffs include leaders from retired police and firefighter associations.
Many say local and state governments are funding illegal migrants while ripping away pensions for first responders.

🚨 BREAKING: BOMBSHELL ACCUSATIONS HIT REP. THOMAS MASSIE:
A woman named Cynthia West, identifying herself as Massie's former girlfriend, is claiming that Massie pressured her into deviant sexual behavior and bribed her with $5,000 to stay quiet.
He then had her fired from a congressional staffer job when she refused.
West says Massie first reached out via DM on X in August 2024 — less than two months after his wife of 31 years died — and the alleged incidents followed.
A complaint was reportedly filed in fall 2025, coinciding with Massie’s remarriage to a staffer 20 years younger.
The man who loudly demanded Epstein transparency now faces very serious personal allegations of his own.
This story is developing rapidly.

@wil_da_beast630 @sourpatchlyds Uh, go back even further and ask the nobles of Europe if they would save their dynastic heirs or the replaceable wife that will likely not bear them more children (and which they can’t divorce).
English

I'd save my wife.
The obvious point that you should rescue your true love, and the lover with whom you can make MORE kids - as vs, say, your teenage son - would have been a no brainer everywhere on Earth before modern emo-world.
Equation might change if you have seven children. But, the average up-middle US couple has 1.2.

“Erm you shouldn’t slam the cylinder close because it could damage it”
If the gun is damaged by something like that then it probably wasn’t safe to fire to begin with. It’s a gun. You’re not supposed to baby it.

Jessica Holloway, 34, from Tampa, Florida showed up to her daughter’s U-8 girls soccer game yesterday morning at Carrollwood Recreation Park.
She was wearing a “WINE MOM ERA” tank top… and decided it was the perfect time to set up a folding table and an Igloo cooler on the sidelines.
Then she started selling homemade wine in mason jars to the other parents.
Her menu?
“Carrollwood Red” — $8 a jar
“Soccer Mom Sangria” — $10 a jar
“Divorce Rosé” — $12 a jar (yes, really)
She got detained on the spot.
Now she’s facing charges for unlicensed alcohol sales and operating an illegal vendor stand on public youth athletic property.
At a children’s soccer game.
Let that sink in.
So are you?
Team “It’s just harmless side-hustle mom energy”
or Team “This is completely unhinged and inexcusable at a kids event”?
