One note: In her letter to Bondi, Sassoon strongly implies that Alex Spiro proposed a quid pro quo, immigration enforcement for dismissal of the charges. legacy.www.documentcloud.org/documents/25... Know who else Spiro represents? Elon Musk.

Why did Trump have himself put in charge of the Kennedy Center? Because he knows that the educated and cultured people who patronize it despise him. So he seeks revenge. And he knows that his being in charge of the center will destroy it.

The reason there are a lot of court orders telling Trump he can't do things is because he's been doing a crazy huge amount of illegal shit in his first three weeks in office. This isn't rocket science. It's basic physics - action and reaction.

SCOOP: We've learned at least three individuals closely associated with Palantir or its cofounder Peter Thiel were involved in an online recruiting effort for DOGE late last year. Step inside the recruitment effort that helped build Elon's DOGE army:

WA state voters: The Washington GOP introduced HB 1584, which would end vote-by-mail in WA. This would make voting less accessible for millions of Washingtonians, including seniors, rural voters, and those with disabilities, etc. Speak out against this NOW: app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1584

Happy Saturday. Be well, everyone!

If only experts existed who could warn Americans repeatedly that foreign aid is money spent to pay Americans and buy things from Americans but no one's ever said it out loud so who can blame people for not understanding

Not much, but we did get some snow here in Seattle.

I think Musk is the kryptonite. No one likes him. I don’t think even Trump, or a good portion of Trumpers, like him. Focus all the negative messaging on him, channel the negative coverage on him. As an added bonus he is super insecure and fragile and he will lose his mind

This.

Of course.

Stable genius got played. "Sheinbaum, too, secured a 30-day reprieve for Mexico in exchange for border and fentanyl measures, most of which, like in the case of Canada, had been part of existing plans. And both had to provide relatively little in exchange." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/04/w...

MEGA: Make Elon Go Away

At least WIRED is paying attention: www.wired.com/story/federa...

FAFO www.reuters.com/business/ret...

Collins: He said that Canada is going to be implementing a $1.3 billion border plan, where they talk about reinforcing the border. I should note that's actually something that was announced back in December

So much “winning.”

This is a good NPR piece on the lies on which Trump's tariff attack are based. 1) Far fewer deaths than Trump and @karolineleavitt claimed 2) Almost no Canadian involvement 3) Biden already made progress on reversing it Every tariff story should start by debunking lies www.npr.org/2025/02/02/n...

Sad, but true.

I wondered about privacy laws, but the damage had already been done.

@cantwell.senate.gov please quit rubber-stamping Trump’s cabinet picks!

Looking forward to this tonight, 8pm, NBC. "Ladies & Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music" Documentary www.nbc.com/nbc-insider/...

Crony capitalism and the elites, sounds like a new GOP boy band.

WA State peeps:

Please watch "Mr. I've been sent by god" and the rest of the supposed "christians" squirm. The Bishop does not mince words.

Perfect day to enjoy one of Seattle’s best parks. #Seattle #SewardPark
