Yesterday

I started noticing that expired-website labeling popping up in a few places by late yesterday. Looked up my now-former Rep. Chavez-DeRemer and got nothing. Like she never even existed.

Of course, if she makes it to Labor Secretary, we’ll be seeing and hearing WAAAAAAAY more than we may ever have wanted to. She wasn’t exactly a frequent communicator during her single term in Congress, although she did seem to enjoy getting her picture taken with groups of handsome firefighters.

But good riddance. We’ve got a Democrat back in that job now, and she’s well-known from four terms in the state legislature. We’ll have MUCH better representation from Janelle Bynum.
