A few weeks ago, @victorcorral.bsky.social and I accompanied Spokane Valley’s homeless outreach team on a ride-along to find out more about what they do for this week’s issue of @inlander.com.

NEW: Idaho, home to seven national forests, will suffer as a result of USFS layoffs, employees warn. Mudslides, clogged toilets, fallen trees, overgrown trails. Lack of first aid. Lack of support for firefighters. Lack of information. www.spokesman.com/stories/2025...

Reminder: There are still amazing folks out there. Here’s a video of my neighbor shoveling my driveway and steps while we were out of town on vacation.

Just a reminder that it’s not all doom and gloom everywhere…. A few photos from Po’ipū Beach today in Kaua’i, Hawai’i.

Recently, I’ve found that digging into local issues and solutions is much more inspiring than obsessing over national news that I have no control over. This week’s cover story deals with a big problem that’s solved by people working together: www.inlander.com/news/manufac...

And now for something fun: A few photos in this week’s @inlander.com about local Spokane artist Kristin Robbins’ work and her art opening tonight at Entropy from 5-9 pm. www.inlander.com/culture/kris...

We know armed officers are asking people in Spokane for their “papers.” Still, immigration orgs encourage people to “spread power, not panic” sharing only verified ICE sightings since social media posts can spread fear. www.inlander.com/news/spokane... Story by @victorcorral.bsky.social

Latest from the Spokane Scene™: “Downtown Spokane Partnership to host 2025 Best in BID Awards and Annual Meeting” by Inland Northwest Business Watch

Inland Northwest journos, we’d love to see your faces this Thursday night in Spokane. Our local SPJ chapter is having some fun at Flatstick Pub at 7p.

Wash State has taken steps to protect immigrants by restricting local law enforcements' participation, but it can't really restrict federal behavior. In border communities like ours, that seems to mean the feds still detain, they just jail people in Idaho. Report by @aaronhedge.bsky.social & I

The number of people booked into the Kootenai County jail on “border patrol hold” is increasing after President Donald Trump issued a slew of executive orders on immigration, while the sheriff’s office promised to continue to cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

If you’re in Eastern/Central Washington or North Idaho, now is the time to support us over at @rangemedia.co. We’re worker owner, which means nobody but us can pressure us to compromise, and we absolutely won’t be doing that

Hey, so, look, asking for a vote in the Best Of poll feels trivial right now but we're going to do it anyways because winning local awards is good for our fundraising! A free way to support us is voting Erin & Luke on Free RANGE for “Best Radio Team or Host” and voting Free RANGE for “Best Podcast!

Good news, BlueSky, @inlander.com is verified and has left Xitter. You’ll be seeing more of them around here. So give them a follow if news from in and around Spokane is your bag.

Journalists in the PNW: Great opportunity to work with some great folks.

Once again, our staff is compiling a large story today about the federal funding freeze from the Trump Administration & how that will affect Spokane and surrounding areas. It’s likely going to be a huge blow. Currently, local agencies are scrambling to calculate potential losses.

Tonight seemed like a good night to begin my annual rewatch of HBO’s John Adams.

I am reminded time and time again that journalists’ job is to tell the truth. No matter who, or what, tells us not to. No matter how many people tell us it’s fake or lies. No matter who says we are just “stirring up controversy.” We document it because we know it will be relevant for years to come

Wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man being cheeky while on assignment the other day.

Today, in 1893, using a military force backed by the U.S. and organized by American businessmen, the kingdom of Hawai’i was illegally overthrown and Queen Liliʻuokalani was dethroned. More info: www.history.com/this-day-in-...

This film is fantastic. Highly recommended. It's available for digital purchase and on Hulu.

Yet again, I’m just a girl screaming into the void that influencers aren’t photojournalists.
