because what we call "mass protest" is usually a parade that you have to ask state permission to organize if cop cars aren't on fire, you're just taking a sunday stroll 2020 had mass protests

We’ve already had people sent to Gitmo and then deported to Venezuela so if whatever “first they came for…” you’re reaching for as a white person isn’t acknowledging the ongoing removal of brown people from the country then idk like maybe the poem is for you and not about you

This is good simple messaging.

we need a new slur to describe the bizarre combination of traits exhibited by elon musk. traditional insults are simply not enough

Great piece by @adamserwer.bsky.social. Reminder that this isn’t the first time the federal workforce has been resegregated: Woodrow Wilson’s 1913 order to impose Jim Crow rolled back almost half a century of progress that saw Black people working at every level of the federal government.

Washington sent $22.5 billion more into the federal treasury in 2022 than we got back in spending. Now Trump is threatening to withhold our own tax dollars from us #WALeg can fight back by making the wealthy pay what they owe in state taxes to prevent cuts to hospitals, affordable homes & education

Your regular reminder that the Seattle Times political function is to build credibility on the backs of real journalism in order for that editorial and management teams to push their Republican talking points.

Hey it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog! Did you know that if you saved $100,000 a day every day from the birth of Jesus to today, you still wouldn't have 1/5th of Elon Musk's net worth? Does Elon Musk perform labor that is worth way over $100,000/day for 2000+ years? Or is something seriously wrong here?

Israel sure killed a lot of journalists

KIRO didn't apparently have a file photo available of the light rail system in the city that it covers.

interesting that Rob claims to support "refugee and immigrant families" but hasn't spoken out against ICE raids and instead signaled his eagerness to "cut deals" and "collaborate" with the Trump admin

If they take away SSRIs and Ritalin/Adderall that might actually cause a revolution

What a profound victory for funding social housing through a tax on the wealthiest companies. Regardless of what pundits say & how certain media outlets downplay our victory, we know that winning took a tremendous amount of work. You know that too! We knocked on over 40k doors, made over 50k calls.

This morning Sara Nelson and Bruce Harrell go to work knowing that they did everything they could to ratfuck Prop 1A out of existence and they lost by 20 points. Sucks to suck!

i think dept of ed will definitely break through once ieps aren’t being followed and programs are losing funding and i think you can start raising those alarms right now

We got that win! Prop 1A beat the shit out of the corrupt, cynical, rizzless opposition by a large margin and now we've got $50M/year from our wealthiest corporations to build housing! Way to go @houseourneighbors.bsky.social

I've archived this list of names in case anything happens to this article. You can bookmark it here: archive.md/hhxpX

Bruce Harrell is watching New Orleans and taking notes for the World Cup

Don’t buy these bullshit ads masquerading as nonpartisan. This is nothing but right wing propaganda. #voicesforvictory

ICYMI (or just want to see it again): The NFL has posted the entirety of Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show on YouTube.

Excuse me, but what the hell, @jayapal.house.gov @pramilajayapal.bsky.social? Bruce Harrell is a nightmare. Remember how you let yourself get browbeaten into signing onto the "No, Israel doesn't do apartheid" thing, right before they started doing genocide? Yeah, so do we. Stop supporting libs.

Yeah, I think it’s beyond time for social media and comms teams to have a very real discussion about the message they’re sending by continuing to use Twitter.

try:

Vancouver Winter Olympics www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
