OUTSTANDING interview with @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social on @volts.wtf This is the ONE interview you got to listen to before voting in the Seattle Mayoral election.
The fact that Katie is attracting attention from such national leading lights is telling - she is special!

Today on Volts: In a big blue city, a progressive up-and-comer is challenging an establishment Democrat to be mayor, having already scored a surprise win in the primary. Naturally I'm talking about Seattle's Katie Wilson! We talk housing, transit, public order, the threat of Trump, & much more.
Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson on governing a blue city in 2025

Reminder that, for at least a year before 10/7, the Biden administration was helping Israel sell 12 oil licenses for land/sea that belonged to Palestine at the time.
They’re all complicit. Every last one.

i get that its probably more useful to say "its likely the shooter had no coherent ideology" than assert otherwise as speculation, but at some level you have to take note that even the president of the united states doesn't have a coherent political ideology

Funniest possible person to say nothing bad happened when he was a kid as a result of everyone having guns
RFK Jr: We had lots of guns when we were kids. Kids brought guns to school and were encouraged to do so. And nobody was walking into schools and shooting people. There are many things that could explain this. One is the dependence on psychiatric drugs.

i cannot overstate how extraordinary it is for federal civil servants to do this
Host: There are new calls this morning for RFK Jr.'s resignation, and those calls coming from inside HHS itself. More than 1,000 current and former HHS workers are making this demand in a letter released this morning. They say his leadership has "put the health of all Americans at risk"

I'm sorry Congresswoman. You can't simultaneously declare your objection to sweeps while also endorsing a mayor in your own city who has aggressively swept your constituents and slow-walked any meaningful expansion of services. 🤦🏽♀️

i think bathroom cops for "the military" is disgusting enough, but remember they also want to “monitor intimate spaces to ensure ongoing compliance” & do “periodic reporting to continuously evaluate & update intimate spaces" to "the whole USA."
how does one exist in public when no bathroom is safe?

Apparently, Abbott signed this bill. It is now illegal to talk, after sunset, on a college campus in Texas.
I thought the headline was exaggerating but it’s not. This is legitimately insane www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outl...
Texas is about to ban talking on college campuses at night | Opinion
If signed by Gov. Greg Abbott, this bill will ban speech at night — from study groups to newspaper reporting — at the state's public universities.
