We are deeply upset with Cascade PBS execs' decision to eliminate the news operation and lay everyone off. It's been wonderful to see the outpouring of support and anger folks have shown this week. If you want to share that anger with the bosses, we'd appreciate it. actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

My opinion on the Bob Vylan / Kneecap controversy is that the IDF just bombed a seafront café
Israeli strike on Gaza seafront cafe kills at least 20 Palestinians, witnesses and rescuers say
The outdoor cafe was frequently used by journalists, activists and local residents.

Reminder: @wsdot.wa.gov, the WA DMV (or Seattle "BMV," which is not a thing) will never send you a text like this. You can tell this is a scam in a number of ways, but one is that I don't own a car and I get them, too. You may know this, but maybe warn your less savvy loved ones.

It is too horribly perfect that Musk's Grok is spewing racist inanities while fueled by huge methane generators that are menacing the health of Memphis's Black communities.

WA state hit the hardest by federal NIH research grant cancellations.
The grant cancellations are damaging the scientific enterprise at institutions in both red and blue states.

WA has been hit hardest by the grant terminations, relative to how much NIH funding it typically receives in a year, with NC as a close second.

NY is hard hit too, because of Columbia.

Today ICE agents detained the prominent farmworker organizer Alfredo Juarez, also known as Lelo, in Washington State. Community groups allege that agents broke Lelo’s car window to apprehend him, violating his constitutional rights. They are calling for his immediate release.

Fellas, is it climate commitment to tax e-bikes instead of resisting the urge to expand highways
Will Washington's e-bike sales tax roll out before our e-bike rebate program?
The proposed transportation budget that was just released by the Washington State Senate includes a 10% surcharge on e-bikes, and a vehicle registration fee for public transit operators along with a removal of the exemption of public transit vehicles from paying tolls.

In case you missed this over the weekend: Former Senior Deputy Mayor Monisha Harrell described what it was like working for Mayor Bruce Harrell.
Monisha Harrell is breaking her silence for the first time since she left her uncle’s administration in 2023. She describes the mayor’s office as being a dog-eat-dog environment where white male advisors vied for power and influence.
