Despicable fucking government.
NEW: When the Senate considered blocking weapons to Israel in July, WA Sen. Murray voted "yes" for the first time. Now, as the Senate considers this again, advocates want to get Sen. Cantwell to flip on her previous votes supporting Israeli military www.theburnerseattle.com/post/call-yo...
The economy is fake. Everything about it. Smoke and mirrors all the way down.
DHS deported a US citizen to Mexico. Brian Morales is 25 years old who was born in Denver. Pulled over in Texas with his construction crew. Didn’t have his ID on him and told officers he could get his birth certificate, Social Security card, and medical records from home.
the Seattle dollar tree somehow ended up with dollar tree Canada signage

There is no ceasefire in Lebanon. Israel has been bombing Lebanon non-stop since last night. If anything Israel is expanding its war on Lebanon.
You are being lied to
which is really too bad given Avalon is roughly the densest part of West Seattle and quite a hilly walk from either other station, while they’re putting Delridge Station in the walkshed of the freeway entrance, steel mill, just a couple of single family housing parcels, and nothing else
A deliberate, symbolic strike on civilian infrastructure with no case for military utility. As clear cut as LOAC violations come.
It’s arguably less a war than it is just a string of war crimes
The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz
Use FreeTaxUSA / TaxHawk for your taxes, full stop. Starve the Intuit lobby that keeps filing hard so they can sell more software.
I've used TurboTax (desktop), TurboTax (web), H&R (web), & TaxAct in the last decade over a variety of scenarios and just switched to FreeTaxUSA this year. It's great.
I was told by Hillary Clinton that the reason younger liberals don't like Israel is because they didn't learn about Camp David on TikTok
neither a garrison state nor an apartheid state, just a normal country, a bastion of democracy even, that happens to subject an ethnically distinct population to a different, militarized legal system complete with capital punishment
This story is insane. Married an American, arrested at her greencard interview, flown out of state, nearly killed multiple times when her diabetes was ignored and then mistreated. When she finally got out? Found out her credit card had been used illegally. www.daylightsandiego.org/san-diego-wo...
The argument that Blinken seems to have landed on is that the US did in fact ignore its own laws to supply Israel with weapons, but Israel would have done everything it did regardless of whether or not the US abetted and defended it. This is actually an argument in favor of ending weapon transfers.
the same way eliminating car dealers, realtors and other parasitic right-wing industries needs to be a goal of the left for its own survival, eliminating chriorpactors, the supplements industry and other quack medicine needs to be on the agenda too
This horrific story gets worse when you find out how this young woman originally came to the US: as a 17-year-old on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane
As the Trump administration sows chaos with a crushing fuel blockade of Cuba, a general told Congress that the military will “set up a camp” at Guantánamo Bay to detain those who try to flee the humanitarian crisis inflicted by the United States.

Together, we are taking decisive action to confront narco-terrorists who have long inflicted terror, violence, and corruption on citizens throughout the hemisphere. "We commend the men and women of the Ecuadorian armed forces for their unwavering commitment to this fight, demonstrating courage and resolve through continued actions against narco-terrorists in their country." - #SOUTHCOM Commander Gen.

Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape, according to a joint investigation by the Texas Newsroom and the California Newsroom. In Texas, abortion is banned in nearly all circumstances, including rape and incest.
