Today in DC: "Beginning Saturday, crews will start another major round of cutting at the historic public golf course. The first phase contains 169 trees marked for removal. The Trump Administration says as many as 529 could eventually come down..." www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2026/...
Footage from October 10th, 2026 - and these are just some of the MANY peaceful protests taking place around the world as we speak.
Fantastic news! It takes all of us – local, state, and federal leaders – to combat price gouging and corporate greed. So proud of our city’s leaders for this legislation!

She fought apartheid, defended Nelson Mandela, and helped change how the world prosecutes sexual violence. Today, at 85, Navi Pillay was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. What an extraordinary woman. 💜 #SheShed #VivaHerAlliance
Happy Birthday to Scott Bakula, one of the best stars a TV show could have. A true professional, a talented man. Overflowing with charisma. Funny and kind. A supreme actor, too, as he was able to purge all of his wonderful qualities to portray Star Trek's greatest asshole, Jonathan Archer.
We need to regulate this! A.I. agents created by Anthropic, acting on their own, tried to gain access to a range of government websites, filled out visa applications on the State Department’s website and sent a fake homicide tip to Philadelphia’s Police Department. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/t...

The Philadelphia Police Department said the agents had also sent in a false homicide tip. The incidents led the White House to call for better disclosure of rogue A.I. behavior.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.
Look at these cowards HSI ICE Agents ran from community members after shooting a man in New York. Share so everyone can see that without their mask they're cowards. bsky.app/profile/resi...
New Yorkers challenged HSI Nazi agents face-to-face—and the agents got scared. They ran away like the cowards they are. This happened near the scene where ICE shot Oscar Belgal while trying to execute him and his child. Community resistance deserves an audience. Repost this everywhere.

NEW: The Trump administration sanctioned the International Criminal Court hours after a former ICC judge won the Nobel Peace Prize. The Trump administration’s continued attempts to dismantle the ICC undercut its ability to investigate and prosecute atrocities like war crimes and genocide.
Scheduled 24 hour power outage by PSE started at 8:00 am so i dragged out the old Westinghouse 7KW for heat/AC, cooking and lights and our new 4KW dual-fuel inverter generator for recharging the battery backups powering the electronics. It helps that the weather is mild and that front blew through
tRump wants to rig the census and change who counts in 2030—but we @fusewashington.org won’t let them. An inaccurate count means we can lose money for our schools, roads, hospitals, disaster relief, even infant formula support for new parents. Submit by Oct 13th. actionnetwork.org/forms/our-st...
Starting January 2027, Washington will pay its workers $17.73 an hour – the highest state minimum wage in the country. I was proud to serve on the committee that helped tie the minimum wage to inflation here in Seattle. This is how you put workers first!
WA’s nation-high minimum wage rising to nearly $18 an hour in 2027
Washington’s minimum wage workers will get a 3.5% pay bump in 2027.
