Hello...Hello? Anyone out there? 

At least Sarah Palin alerted us years ago to the fact that  she can see Russia from Alaska...that way we can keep a close eye on those rooskie's Arctic Antics and make sure they don't get to the Buried Treasure first.

I have not written anything, posted any audio, added any links for a long time..
Is there anybody out there?  I have wondered over the years if listeners visit me here in Air Cascadia.
Do you?

Call KBOO at 503-231-8032 and leave a message with Kathleen, Morning News & Public Affairs Director.

3, If the Rube-publicans manage to scuttle the Iran Deal, then what next? We have our right wing religious nuts and they have theirs. I guess it comes down to whose nuts are bigger...
Can I say that on the radio?
 
 
4, Black Lives Matter, but in South Carolina white lives matter more...A white former police chief will have to spend a year under home detention but won't have to serve any prison time in the 2011 shooting death of an unarmed black man.
Prosecutors agreed Tuesday to drop a murder charge against 38-year-old Richard Combs, the former police chief of the small town of Eutawville, in exchange for his guilty plea to misconduct in office. The murder charge carried a penalty of 30 years to life.
Circuit Judge Edgar Dickson suspended a 10-year prison sentence for Combs as long as he completes his home detention and five years of probation.
 
5, Thousands of California prison inmates who have been in solitary confinement – some for more than 30 years – will be released into the general prison population under a legal settlement announced Tuesday.
The agreement follows several hunger strikes over the past decade to protest the use of indefinite solitary confinement to control prison gangs.
 
6, This morning – and continuing right now - Baltimore’s State's Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby must be celebrating.  Protesters outside the courthouse are not.  Judge Barry Williams denied motions to dismiss charges against six Baltimore police officers charged in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray and to recuse Mosby's office from the case.
 
The arguments largely centered around the actions of Mosby and others in her office. The dismissal motion focused on statements Mosby made while announcing the charges against the officers on May 1 in front of the Baltimore War Memorial. The arguments on the recusal motion focused on the role Mosby and prosecutors played in her office's independent investigation of Gray's death.
