1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.
No take backs.
The NYT min crossword is now behind a paywall? *snif* 😢
Great newsletter, Zeb. Always appreciate your insight.
From you lips to God’s ears. 🙏🏻 I feel like central Idaho largely dodged a bullet this week.
Original filing of lawsuit alleging Trump raped a 13-year-old girl. The victim later dropped the lawsuit, then reinstated it and dropped it again because she said she was frightened by threats of violence.

Today I held a press call to make clear GOP health care cuts hitting hospitals in WA state will also hurt people in WY, AK, MT, & ID.
Because hospitals in our state provide essential, high-level specialty care to people across the entire Mountain West.

I know my colleagues already dropped this line (h/t: @brendanvduke.bsky.social ), but it bears repeating - there already exists a rural hospital fund and it is called:

From Facebook: fyi. probably not anything you don't already know.
Thanks, Zeb. All our cabin neighbors still talk about the Halstead fire and how scary it was, so I hate to see something between that scar and us, but I'd also rather see it now than in August.
😟 this is so close to our cabin. I hope the storm doesn't come in with a bunch of wind.

Thankful the mountains are getting snow this weekend.
I have 3 kids (20+ yo) and with each pregnancy they ran measles titers and determined I didn’t have immunity and revaccinated me. They said I just don’t convert immunity for some reason. Does this mean I’m at risk for measles? Is there any value in having another booster? I am in Idaho
I got super excited for a second when she talked about deporting rapists.
Homan went on CNN to complain that ICE’s attempts to arrest Chicagoans has been hampered by the people’s knowledge of policy—largely because of the city’s “Know Your Rights” campaign. Fascists rely on your compliance. On your ignorance. They depend upon your fear.
Disappoint them.

You owe us absolutely nothing. I'd be so sad not to have your updates during fire season, but if you don't have the time or mental bandwidth, I hope you do what's best for you before you give any of us a moment's thought.
This book is 10/10. I cannot recommend this highly enough. This was EXACTLY what my soul needed this week.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
was there just an earthquake near Stanley? Anyone?
Good for you! I love quilting! If you have questions, reach out!!!
@tamarakenyon.bsky.social Let me know what you think!
Been thinking about this. If my daughter can go an entire year living in a coed dorm with shared bathrooms and not have any issues, then I should be ok. If I have gone my entire 48 years using public restrooms without an issue, then I should be ok.
