Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 27/09/20269 years ago today, my buddy Craig Johnson was shot by Bonner County Sniper Shawn Deem, killing him. Since that day I have advocated for police accountability. This past week I was appointed to the Spokane Office of Police Ombudsman Commission. Today I enjoyed my annual cigar in Craig’s memory. 190
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I uh… well… we are a bit hairy, but to call us animals??? 031
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 16/08/2026This vigil is happening today at the Federal Courthouse in Spokane. 042
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 11/08/2026The Spokane County Commissioners limited public comment for public comment regarding their opposition to data centers. Then they allowed Commission French to pontificate at great length about the greatness of data centers. 001
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 10/08/2026This young bird is in my yard. It’s not a robin. It looks like it could be a Peregrine Falcon. Do any of you bird experts know what it may be. #Birds 220
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Thank you to all the fire crews, law enforcement, medical staff, contract crews and everyone else that has been working these fires. We appreciate you! This was yesterday by the Downriver Golf Course. 071
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 19/07/2026But in my head, this is what I see. And yes… I hear the music. 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 19/07/2026This has been my view this weekend in Leavenworth, WA. 2301
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 18/07/2026While out on a stroll today I ran into Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth. I asked if I could take their picture. They stood next to each other and put their arms around their waists like they weee snuggling. 030
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 18/07/2026We are enjoying a weekend in Leavenworth for my amazing wife’s birthday. Drove up to Lake Wenatchee. Did some hiking. We are lucky that we seem to be in a smokeless area. The kids told us Spokane is socked in. Tomorrow we paddle the Wenatchee River. 170
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Interested in how leopard slugs mate? Well here are two in my yard having a romantic evening. Did you know that leopard slugs have both male & female parts? Those thing you see in my pictures are their penises. They exchange semen and then pull their bits back into themselves. Nature is amazing! 140
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 10/07/2026@amazonprime.bsky.social “Arrives by tomorrow.” (Clicks purchase button) “Arriving in 5 days.” 110
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Saw this today. I felt ill. People struggling to survive and then here comes this guy. It seems… excessive. 210
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Had a blast at Skyfest at Fairchild Air Force Base yesterday! And the beer was pretty good too! Some shots I took of the scenery. 😎 130
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 15/04/2026But… even if it is true that he doesn’t know them, he still went to a UFC event. Sooo… 010
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Today’s hearing was disappointing, but it won’t stop this fight for our First Amendment rights. A federal judge refused to dismiss the case against Jac, Justice, and Bajun. This sends a chilling message. Stand firm. #Veterans #WeKeepUsSafe #BraveOfUs #SpokaneBrave #DiscGolf 031
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 14/04/2026The Federal Prosecutor is attempting to criminalize protesting by charging protesters in Spokane, Wa with conspiracy. This is an attack on our First Amendment Rights! #Veterans #WeKeepUsSafe #BraveOfUs #SpokaneBrave 134
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Of course the Idaho Game Commissioner is accused of poaching. I mean… 121
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 29/03/2026A nice person gave me this awesome sticker today at the No Kings protest in Spokane! 040
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 21/03/2026I’d take it as a badge of honor if Donald Trump ever felt compelled to insult me upon my demise. To me, that would mean I stood on principle and did things right. 050
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 03/03/2026We’ve entered a world where the lines been fact & fiction are so blurred that in a Congressional hearing involving DHS Secretary Noem, Senator Grassley entered in to the record “evidence” of potential trafficking. There is either evidence or rumor. Potential evidence is neither evidence or fact! 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 01/03/2026I made a CAPTCHA image that I want to submit to the public for uses. 030
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 28/02/2026I have a great credit rating and get sent credit card and loan offers all the time. A person would be desperate to take any of these offers considering the interest rates they are offering. In fact, these rates should be criminal. They take advantage of the poor and keep them poor. 170
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 27/02/2026If the Republicans are going to release video of former senator Clinton’s testimony yesterday regarding Epstein, why didn’t they just allow it to be an open hearing in the first place? I’ll tell you why. It’s because they want to control the narrative. 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 23/02/2026I deleted Waze from my phone a couple of weeks ago due to security concerns. Today, despite the Waze app being removed from my phone, I got an alert on my phone from Waze! Perhaps my concerns were valid. 050
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 21/02/2026The mild PNW winter has made the moss on the stone wall around my yard thrive! My wall is covered in moss. This is just one small area! 051
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 19/02/2026I know you will be shocked, but this pickup was caught rolling coal today in Spokane. 010
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 12/02/2026Took my new Trash Panda Disc Golf driver that I just got to replace my stolen disc to the park for a test drive and someone’s off-leash dog was kind enough to go after it and bring it back. The upside, I doubt it will have any effect on my throws. 🙄 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 11/02/2026Watching the Pam Bondi hearing this morning. She is common trash. All she does is deflect and snipe at congressional members without answering any questions. She is defensive because she knows she has committed numerous crimes and will eventually be punished. 130
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 11/02/2026I wonder what nefarious government chore Atlas is up to today? 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 10/02/2026@thanedar.house.gov is awesome! Rep. Shri Thanedar just informed ICE officials they will be held accountable for their crimes and they should be hoping they receive a pardon, because they will be prosecuted!❤️ 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Placed a new sign and flowers at the VA for Alex Pretti and to let the staff know we’re thinking of them. This time it’s outside the fence, so hopefully it won’t get taken down. Feel free to add to it if you would like. 070
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 27/01/2026These are the photos I took at Dachau nearly 38 years ago. Memory is resistance. We must stop fascism wherever we see it. 140
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 26/01/2026I asked Google, “Why does karoline Leavitt look like she has syphilis”? Evidently, it is a question that is being asked by many people? I wonder if Leavitt is aware of this? 430
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 24/01/2026In my text messages today. And I’m okay with it. 😎 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 14/01/2026This is the best description of what ICE agents that were photographed in Seattle without their masks on look like!🤣🤣🤣 080
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 11/01/2026I just blocked Eric Owen on Facebook. I tolerated his hateful BS for too long! 020
Jim Leighty @jdleighty.bsky.social · 10/01/2026People drove by and kept telling me to get a job. Including two assholes in an Action Drain Plumbing van. Standing up for my family, friends, and neighbors is my job, bitches! 1102
