Union Members, King County Employees Protest Three-Day Office Mandate
Many employees have never had to work from an office in downtown Seattle, and have jobs that take them to far-flung locations.

Mercer Island is trying to cram all of the density that it's being required to allow under state law within its small Town Center to the south of I-90, and Councilmembers are complaining about "abrupt urban edges."
Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.
Hey, @seattletimes-rss.bsky.social you literally GOT this story from me. I broke it days ago on Bluesky and then on my own website, PubliCola. THE POST WAS DOWN BY YESTERDAY. I RAN INTO YOUR REPORTER WHO THANKED ME FOR BREAKING THIS NEWS today. Give my independent outlet credit immediately.
We are watching what Peter Magyar is doing in Hungary and will insist Dems do the same here.

Friends, I released my four-part plan on how we build 1.25 million homes. It's way more complicated that the vapid vibes put out by most candidates, so it's a longer video. Please watch it through to the end--and share it with some friends!

it’s the same exact thinking you see from these nitwits with the Iran war.
they think they hold all the cards and cannot even conceive of their enemy retaliating, whether it’s by closing the strait of Hormuz or the CA/VA redistricting ballot measures
love to see that @ronpdavis.bsky.social is absolutely single stair pilled, and how that facilitates courtyard urbanism allowing for both more residents *and* more space for trees and community
ZOHRAN MAMDANI: "It is sad that for too many Americans when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, they have to turn to a history book."
We are not asking Sound Transit to do something impossible. We are asking them to do what they said they would do.
Build the connection.
Build the future.
Build the damn trains.
WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/
Seattle will need to include an in-lieu fee option for funded inclusionary zoning. It's a little technical, and a little kludgy, but should do the trick.

If we fund onsite performance, it will kill a significant source of revenue for affordable housing providers, and we depend on those to keep people housed.
But there is a workaround that can keep all parties whole, without wasting taxpayer money.
I agree that if we are going to have inclusionary zoning, we ought to fund it. But in Seattle, where this has been an important revenue stream for affordable housing providers, funded inclusionary zoning presents a problem.

Pritzker going full YIMBY is truly beautiful to see
Danny Westneat last week: “ugh, what is with all these primary challenges to incumbent Dems from the left?”
Danny Westneat today: “yes! Look at this wonderful primary challenger from the right.”
I am strongly supporting @ronpdavis.bsky.social for the 46th District House seat against Gerry Pollet. He’s the true progressive in the race. Accept no substitutes. Especially one who clerked for Kavanaugh
We have @ronpdavis.bsky.social’s insight to thank for this wonderful fact
Aw thanks!
You absolutely love to see it
Our environmental review process has become totally divorced from the environment.
I’ve reached out to Kennedy directly to ask…but in the meantime, I’ve learned they have a gofundme up for the family. Please support them.

Awesome and totally predictable. Let’s do this with the Ave in the U District next!
