Badger has done a great job in the role and in TWP in general. It's nice seeing new people step up though as the old guard moves to more advisory roles! I look forward to seeing what Sensor can do.

Badger has been fantastic to work with and I'm excited to continue and expand upon his vision for the ministry.

The Corporation of LazCorp would like to thank the Crab King of the West Pacific for his assistance in helping to maintain Warzone Airspace for The Neutral Sphere while we were splitting ourselves between there and supporting the East Pacific in Africa. The troops who stayed in Airspace very much enjoyed the tasty offerings they were sent, even turning a portion of the gift into an absolutely delicious seafood dip.

May we again pursue glory for Neutrality on the battlefield together soon!

In the spirit of our recent government announcements, I have another government announcement. As of this morning, Kawaii Schoolgirls is no longer the commander of the Armed Forces of the West Pacific. Our #1 bureaucrat Overthinkers is now in command. We would like to thank Kawaii for all her service as commander.

Great issue all-around, but I would note I am especially a big fan of the “foreign affairs feature” by Fuentana. I like how it makes FA more interesting, rather than just posting updates.

I am thankful that the West Pacifican graphics team has finally managed to sort out the sidebars. Brilliant as ever.

Is TWP officially in support of Black Lives Matter and affiliated movements, or is this the opinion of the West Pacifican's editorial board projected onto the region and (at least tacitly if not actively) accepted by regional officials?

At this point in time, I do not represent the region or newspaper in any official governmental capacity so I do not speak for anyone but myself. As a long-time citizen of the region, I am proud of TWP and our citizens for choosing to support the RL social issues that they hold dear through flags, pretitles, etc. I am not sure where you are going with this question. However, I do not feel that this thread on this forum is the place to debate RL issues.

What are you railing on about, and why does it matter? There is absolutely nothing about the BLM movement in the newsletter at all, so why bring it up? To my eyes, this screams of bait.

Baiting accusations should be posted in Moderation, not in GP as cheap shots. But since it's in the first paragraph of the dispatch I think you might be out of luck.
