Members of Sound Transit's union bargaining group are currently testifying at the board's exec committee about the fact that the agency is blocking good-faith bargaining its employee union.
One rep is calling ST's behavior "disheartening at best and disrespectful at worst."
This is very unusual.

The federal government is not doing their job. The tariffs, healthcare cuts, government shutdown, immigration insanity are all doing harm to us.
It is time to start publicly discussing withholding federal tax revenue along with Newsome, Pritzker and any other Governor with morals.

Spending tax dollars on $175M private jets, $1B to renovate a private jet, $150M on golf trips, & other wasteful spending while Americans face going without food due to SNAP benefits not going out in Nov is a gop policy choice.

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

This is a crisis. @governorferguson.bsky.social needs to call an emergency session to plug the funding gaps.
Analysis shows FOURTEEN Washington hospitals in rural areas are at risk of closure if the MAGA GOP pass their budget to gut Medicaid to give tax cuts to their wealthy donors.
Lifesaving care would disappear across our state, leading to more deaths driving up the cost of health care for everyone.

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location.
ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her.
This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

Today is a major victory for our public lands. Thank YOU for your incredible outpouring in defense of our American birthright. Because of you, the lands that we cherish will remain OURS.

The Senate is a standing gerrymander with two Dakotas getting four votes to California's two. That we are tearing down our public institutions on a 51-49 vote is just insane.
