Good to see this celebration of the expansion of Parton’s book club for kids in Washington State. No hint of book “standards” from Lewis Co commission…Insightful story about the socioeconomic similarities between Parton’s home county with many SW Wa counties. Similar politics too…#centraliawa #dollypartonimaginationlibrary #waleg #libraries

Nice to see a local long time GOP columnist criticize Joe Kent for his false claims about the 2020 election and get him on record criticizing pro Nazis Christian Nationalists. Thank you Julie McDonald for doing this interview and exposing Joe’s dishonesty and disinformation about the election.

Great discussion about how Centralia Chronicle Journalist Isabel Vander Stoep used clear direct language to explain the racist underpinnings of a white supremacy religious group, how the community responded and earlier attempt by Congressional candidate Joe Kent to hide his alliance with white supremacy political groups. A good lesson for other journalists.
