Ain't buying it. Support local businesses and progressive minded businesses like Alki Bike and Board instead.

Just don't buy anything on the tariff list. Cool!

So we charge a tariff tax on the wealthier consumers and turn around and send $2,000 checks out to the low quantity consumers. This redistribution of wealth sounds like socialism.

JD Vance says AI will boost productivity because robots will do the jobs Americans don't want to do. With that logic, it's ok for AI to take jobs but God forbid a tax paying migrant worker should.

Really, 8 Dems voted with Trump for a continuing resolution that will end Obama Care. Schumer has got to go. I know Bernie is an Independent but he should be the minority leader and by 2026 the majority leader.

Thanks, however their last update was November 6th. I assume they are not tallying over the weekend. I think the mayor's race will be called by Tuesday.

Where in the digital universe do you get the latest and up to date local election results. My favorite local news @westseattleblog.com has been good at Seattle Mayoral results and King Co. I'm looking for state legislature.

Yes, R trip was a group formed years ago to do just that. I ride the old service road from the base of Highland Park Way It would make a good DIY gravel bike connection. There's another road grade beginning at Puget Blvd from West Marginal that ends up on SW Brandon St.
What passage do you envision?

We always hear how great the sidewalks are in the Admiral Junction. They are!
Walkability is safely crossing the streets. Regardless of abilities!

I hope to see the 72 street re-imagined bike and pedestrian corridor from Central Park to Riverside Greenway. Once completed it will be a legacy project.

Thanks for all you do. Called Cantwell and Murray to tell them to keep the Dem leadership in line and keep holding out for affordable health care.

Chief Justice Roberts calls Trump's tariffs an 'imposition of taxes' during arguments During oral arguments on Wednesday in a case that will determine the future of President Donald Trump's economic agenda.

When will the Dems hammer home the fact that Trump's tariffs are the biggest tax on working class and working poor in recent history. CJ Roberts thinks it is.
