Just so we're all on the same page...

Surprise! We’re livetweeting tonight, straight from the WA 5th Congressional District conversation and debate, hosted by The Spokesman Review and KSPS-PBS.

We’re not changing it.

If you live in Eastern Washington, Avista is planning to increase your electric and gas rates. The AG’s office is fighting these rate increases in front of the Utilities & Transportation Commission. Share your thoughts with the UTC via Zoom on 8/27: https://ow.ly/Wajk50ZB2oJ

The American Red Cross has opened another evacuation shelter at the Spokane Convention Center for anyone under evacuation orders in north Spokane.

Holy shit! Jim Jordan is reduced to stammering when Kasie Hunt presses him on why he continues to support Max Miller despite credible allegations that he abused his ex-wife and toddler daughter

The caller on Rand Paul’s virtual town hall is all of us.

He will always have his magic wand.

After receiving a political polling phone call last week, two RANGE reporters teamed up to ask their own questions, like who paid for the poll and why were they asking about Gavin Cooley - leader of the Spokane Business Association - potentially running for mayor in 2027? Get the scoop now:

Coach said gimme that key b*tch. #Survivor50

Donald Trump is officially renouncing Marjorie Taylor Greene and rescinding his endorsement.

This is a better answer than I gave on The Source to @kaitlancollins.bsky.social last night.

They’re calling Megyn Kelly “Megyn R. Kelly" now.

This lady is directing traffic for all the people who said they’d flee NYC if Mamdani won. 👇

I didn’t think this night could get any better.

I’m watching the White House briefing with JD Vance and all I can say is that we are not a serious country. My god.

Elmo is getting feisty on Twitter.

let me be clear: mike lee is a bitch

E. Jean Carroll: This is a man who wears apricot makeup, with his hair twirled around his head like Barbara Stanwyck in Ball of Fire. I was so close—I heard almost every single thing he said. The farting—you wanted to know about that? It was a silent one… sort of.

I'm trying to get to the bottom of it, folks

Read? The Gazpacho Police and Peachtree Dish lady?

Trump: "I don't think a beautiful baby girl that's 11 years old needs to have 30 dolls. I think they can have three dolls or four dolls ... they don't need to have 250 pencils. They can have five."

North Korea is blushing now.

Hating on “Big Pharma”? Cool, it’s a $1.6 trillion regulated industry. But hang on…the $6.3 trillion wellness industry sells you mushroom tea, dewormers, crash diets, and alkaline water—no regulations, no oversight. But hey, it’s ‘natural,’ right?

…

Trump says he thinks now that maybe Putin really doesn’t want peace.

Look, the people who helped the Jews got sent to camps, too, so this stands to reason

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Penguins are not finished protesting.

No words needed.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

This is disgusting...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

funniest highlights of the philly police scanner, a thread

NOEM: “You can’t trust the government.” BASH: “You are the government.”

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

Nazis taking L's!!!

ALSOBROOKS: You said 'we should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that is given to whites.' Can you please explain what you meant? RFK Jr: There's a series of studies ... ALSOBROOKS: What different schedule would you say I should've recevied?

That did not take long

New Tesla logo just dropped.

The story behind RFK Jr. in Samoa's measles crisis has never been reported. He wasn't there to spread misinformation about vaccines (though he did). He wanted to study a "natural experiment" of unvaccinated kids. “I can’t imagine anything less ethical or more cruel.” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
