Say no to Sinclair. Say no to KOMO. Seattle deserves better!
Trump’s solution to low ticket revenue? Slap a ‘renovation’ sign on the Kennedy Center and disappear for a couple of years.

The Super Bowl halftime show is supposed to be a mass-appeal, pop-culture spectacle a show about entertainment, showmanship, and music. Turning Point USA launching a politically‑framed, “faith and freedom” alternative is… well, it’s basically turning a fun halftime show into a political statement.

Hidden in the house side of the funding bill: no suing the government over Jack Smith accessing member's phone records. Lindsey Graham is furious and had been already eyeing a taxpayer payout. Thoughts, prayers, and apparently cash. This isn't a GoFundMe Lindsey!

Donald Trump is suing the Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department for $10 billion, alleging that they failed to prevent a former IRS employee from improperly disclosing his tax returns, and those of his sons and his company, to news outlets.

Trump officials have secretly met with leaders of a Canadian separatist movement aiming to carve out an independent, oil-rich region. These talks, ongoing since last spring, come as relations between President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney have soured. At the heart of it all: oil.

Adding his name to another man’s memorial or taking a Nobel Peace Prize medal from its rightful recipient isn’t leadership; it’s appropriation. It signals entitlement, vanity, and a profound disrespect for sacrifice and truth.

What I find truly disturbing is that we’re funding the very menace coming out of the White House. It feels like a mandatory tithe.

White House reportedly told Secret Service Marjorie Taylor Greene may have tipped off protesters to confront Trump...Here comes the "retribution".

In memory of Renee Good, let’s all wear a "Good Whistle" and let it sound out against the bad we see. ICE Scream.

So the Director of National Intelligence was reportedly kept in the dark about plans to invade Venezuela and overthrow Maduro. If you’re sidelining the DNI on something like this, that’s not strategy, it's chaos. This administration is nuts.

Avelo Airlines said it will cease flying deportation charters for the Department of Homeland Security, bringing to an end its work transporting detained immigrants for Immigration and Customs Enforcement after less than a year. Protests and boycotts DO work.

An important clarification: Not only is there no absolute criminal immunity for ICE, there also is no presidential power to pardon state crimes, including murder.
