Take it up with Phillip.
While it's unusual for the middle of the country to bake and the PNW to as well, that has happened as recently as 2022...though that was definitely centered in the western 2/3 of the nation.
2018 was also pretty warm for both the West and East. As was 2016, though that was a pretty moderate summer for the PNW overall.
I totally agree. I'm hopeful the Republican's will only go after people who have committed real crimes.
I think a lot of American's are turned off by how this vendetta against Trump seems nothing but political. Is there anyone in Washington who you couldn't find some dirt on to prosecute? I doubt it. As a high ranking official in the Soviet Union once said...show me the man and I'll show you the crime.
