I'm simple, yet complex. A perverse complication of thought and action swirled into a mass of complete confusion and utter distraction. Go figure :)

The Intelligence Community said a week ago that Iran had not moved towards a nuclear weapon.
Have they changed their assessment? And if not, what the hell is the U.S. doing ignoring our own intelligence?

ICE is teaming up with HUD to separate families—evicting immigrant parents from homes their U.S. citizen kids still qualify for.
It’s anti-family. It’s Cruel and wrong.
Let’s just use housing policy to as a weapon…to scare, exclude, and remove people without having to pass new laws.

The campaign to terrorize the poor continues. The regime added a clause to grant agreements that will allow them to weaponize public housing funds. It continues to comb through resident data claiming to look for fraud. This is what they are really up to.

Our NOAA Climate Adaptation Partnership for the Northwest region was terminated this week. I'm so proud of the work we did to support the climate resilience efforts of frontline communities and Tribal Nations. And I'm deeply concerned for what the loss of this support means for NW communities.
We are deeply saddened to report that the funding for the Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative has been terminated effective immediately. This is a devastating setback for climate resilience in rural and Tribal communities in the PNW. Read more>> cig.uw.edu/2025/05/cig-... @nwcasc.bsky.social
