What an incredible last few days. Whale watching tour where we caught a group of 5 orca whale pods together in one place, a humpback whale, puffins, and elephant seals.

Then a ride out to Olympic, where we saw the most massive humpback breach from the beachside.

I love the PNW.

This could be the official GOP campaign poster at this point. They know he lies. He knows they know. And they still clap for the lies like it’s the gospel truth.

The rich don’t spend the money they have, and the poor don’t have money to spend.

This is a problem when 70% of the economy relies on consumer spending.

Closing our nation's wealth gap isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s essential to save our economy. https://youtu.be/S6dCh48b4oI?feature=shared

Today marks 16 years since the federal minimum wage was last raised.

Guess how much the wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

Reposting this and a few other things for no particular reason today. Maybe I’ll do it tomorrow and the next day, too.

In rural districts like o, public media is essential. Attacking NPR and PBS is a waste of time when real people are dealing with real problems, like housing and food insecurity, and health care access.

NPR and PBS are not the problem…budgets that favor billionaires over every day people are.

My thoughts on Trump’s first 100 days? 100 days of not bringing down costs for the American people.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Since Day 1, the Trump admin has been attacking Head Start.

This program provides pre-K & essential services for nearly 800,000 kids every year. But Trump is freezing funding, firing staff, & wants to eliminate it.

I'm demanding Trump & RFK Jr. reverse these actions immediately.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

I understand what Judge Xinis is doing. She is building a factual record so that that record will be crystal clear when this case gets back to the Supreme Court.

But I also know it is taking too long. Two weeks is too long.

Keep in mind Bukele will just kill Garcia at the last moment if he has to.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.

That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode the deficit.

3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

They're trying to get away with it again.
