kotzebue, alaska declared a mandatory evacuation order

Murkowski is on talk of Alaska at 10am on Tuesday, this should be the first thing she is asked about.

I visited trailheads damaged by the Bear Gulch Fire firsthand and spoke with volunteers and federal workers about the road ahead. Our federal workers are doing their best to keep us safe while working without pay — the least we can do is look out for each other and make their jobs a little easier.

More cities need modal filters!

They’re not acting like they’re in a four-year term.

They’re acting like they’re in an everlasting dictatorship.

Are we all clear on this?

Do it George!!!

An inspiring thread we can all learn from!

Who Doesn’t Have a Car? A new NRDC map shows car-free living and the factors affecting car usage in United States.

"This is a big opportunity to correct [the myth] that people who don't drive are [living] some sort of fringe lifestyle — that not having access to a car is something that only hippies do, or pp who are obsessed w/ biking.. there's a lot of nuance [here]" www.nrdc.org/resources/wh...

Real numbers. Real results!

ADP numbers for September were -32,000 on a projection of +51,000.

August was revised to -3,000, marking the first consecutive negative months since the heights of Covid.

🚨The Russian asset in the White House & his regime just visually catalogued every single flag officer in our military, and televised it across the globe.

If that does not raise massive alarm bells for you, then you are woefully fucking stupid.

If Thune hadn't been in the room, Wide-Eyed Grampa would've probably agreed to Universal Healthcare.

Remember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year.

They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency.

Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.

I see car brain is an international condition. You wouldn’t know it from the below post, but the it was the scooter rider who was killed, hit by a motorist. And other reports say the motorist was drunk and fled the scene

He's telling us what he's doing. Using the military to suppress protest. At some point the opposition needs to listen to him and adjust strategy.

The BlueSky ska community endorses "No Normal" by Kill Lincoln for Grey, but what's the most BLACK ska album?

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

I'm glad one of the firefighters recently detained by ICE while fighting the Bear Gulch Fire is home. It took the work of community and legal advocates to secure his release after weeks of detention.

This is how Rigoberto described his career:
