Wow, Data Centers get public funding now? “The Department of Energy is lending as much as $4.4 billion to restart the Palisades Power Plant in Michigan, the Crane Clean Energy Center on Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island and the Duane Arnold Energy Center in Iowa.” www.koat.com/article/us-r...

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

The Bicycle Advisory Board will be leading bike buddy rides on Sept. 15, from your local library or community center to City Hall, where there will be an additional ride looping downtown. Sprocket & Sprinkles will also be at City Hall, so be sure to get some ice cream and support a local business!

"Jews in Britain, Muslims in Britain, people of all faiths and none have a right to live without prejudice or fear." I believe the Foreign Secretary spoke for millions of people across the country today. He did so with a deep personal conviction and authority. A very powerful statement.

This is Day 90 of Iran supposedly begging for a peace from Trump which is about to get done any minute and is a total surrender by Iran which accomplished all the original war objectives of the US.

Paris urban biking investment helps cut pollution in half: “Between 2005 & 2024, levels of nitrogen dioxide & fine particulate matter — 2 of the most harmful pollutants to health — have been slashed by 50% & 55%, respectively.” Via @momentummag.bsky.social Bike-lanes make better cities. #UrbanTruth

Rep. Baumgartner’s HR-8037 Protect American AI Act of 2026 has a 1% chance of passing. It’s too radical for the GOP to touch. Our priority for Eastern Washington should be to help our Farmers thrive, not deregulate water and energy consuming Data Centers. #EasternWashington #Baumgartner #Spokane

“The lowest national average gas price during Trump’s second term was $2.81 per gallon in January 2026”. “According to AAA, today’s national average is $4.166 per gallon.” -Claude

Eastern Washington: Rep. Baumgartner prioritizes AI Data Centers over environmental protections with his proposed HR 8037- Protect American AI Act of 2026 Bottom Line: This bill would insulate AI and data center construction from environmental litigation delays. Lawsuits can’t block permits.

Trump appointees at the Dept. of Energy used their personal email accounts to evade transparency laws in their efforts to make it easier to pollute, and EPA was in on it.   We are demanding answers and accountability for this blatant disregard for the law.

No explanation, yet Rep. Baumgartner is still backing Trump’s illegal war with Iran. No strategy. No real case to the American people, but he’s still supporting it. The American people deserve answers, accountability, and a vote from Congress before getting dragged into another war.

spokesman.comBaumgartner makes the case for attacking Iran, citing 47 years of violence. Crocker has seen that first-hand but fears the war's consequencesWASHINGTON – On the morning of April 18, 1983, a young diplomat named Ryan Crocker had a meeting at the U.S. Embassy in Lebanon with Bob Ames, the CIA’s chief Middle East analyst.

Did Trump Fan Boy Rep Baumgartner just jump ship? “I emphasized that our farm economy depends on stable, rules-based access to global markets, not sudden shifts in policy, and that unpredictable tariffs ultimately hurt family farmers, local businesses, and consumers…” It’s too late Michael.

I’ve said this before, I’ll say it again — if there’s ONE video everyone out there should send to their city councillors and mayor with a request to watch it and reply back with how their city policies and approaches are addressing it, it’s THIS video.

WATCH: If you STILL don’t understand how car-dependent suburbia is HEAVILY SUBSIDIZED by downtown and all the urban parts of your city, watch this EXCELLENT video by #NotJustBikes with #Urban3 & @strongtowns.bsky.social. And PLEASE SHARE it as much as possible. I’ve sent it to a LOT of politicians.
