Alright, Seattle, what are we going to do when they come for us? Portland has set the bar high and we can't let them do it better. We have the Seattle freeze, and orcas and Jimi Hendrix and flying salmon, surely we can come up with good ideas.

A disabled double amputee named Rodney Taylor has been held in ICE custody since January.

He’s been denied his new prosthetic legs and is now in solitary confinement.

His β€œcrime”? A burglary when he was a teen for which he received a full pardon. 🧡

I would like as many people as possible to make donations to their local food banks on 10/18/25-a huge cash infusion in to the system that the media can't ignore.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

To be clear: American conservatives and the Republican Party are the enemy of democracy. Let's just get this out there right here and now.

There is a legal distinction, but Miller never studied or practiced law. The supremacy clause also doesn’t make the federal government all powerful- we have a federalist system, which Republicans used to believe in. Now they believe in wielding power, gangsterism, and thuggery.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do β€” hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

An interesting point raised elsewhere: these boats that the United States is striking don't appear to have the fuel capacity/storage capacity to even reach American shores.

These strikes are being done without due process and without Congressional authorization.

This latest strike demonstrates how urgent it is that Congress pass my War Powers Resolution and reassert its constitutional role.

Jeffries: In that Oval Office meeting, which lasted over an hour, the amount of time spent talking about health insurance for undocumented immigrants was less than 10 seconds. You know why? Because they know it’s a lie. They didn’t even bother to bring it upβ€”because the cameras weren’t rolling.

I'd argue that Democrats aren't MAKING THIS about the ACA.

It IS about the ACA.

It is about AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE.
