Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA): "At this point in time in 2022, a little over 200,000 Virginians had voted. At this point in time in 2026, approximately 450,000 Virginians have voted early."

ICE is silently flying hundreds of detained immigrants out of WA, separating them from their attorneys, communities, and families. Nearly 500 people have been flown out since last August, some with as little as one night’s notice. This cruelty doesn’t belong in Washington. Or our nation.

Contract With America 2.0, but for reform candidates: medicare for all fund education pass the ERA expand the house w/ proportional representation voter reform - vote by mail, auto-registration direct executive election, with a "people's recall" term limit the supreme court. what's missing?

do not confirm Blanche.

Phang: The breaking news is… an order was just entered within the last hour by Judge Sullivan in my lawsuit against Todd Blanche. The reason why this is so momentous is that Judge Sullivan has pretty much said in this order, “Todd Blanche, you have now defied my orders.”

France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼

Watch as Rep. Ayana Pressley honors the women who have died because they were denied essential abortion care. Abortion care is a human right. We must keep up the fight for body autonomy.

Good morning Seattle. Welcome your new neighbor. Zuckerberg’s $300M megayacht arrived in Seattle just hours after layoffs impacting roughly 1,400 employees in King County were announced by Meta. This vessel drew crowds and criticism as it traveled through the Ballard Locks toward Lake Union. WTF 🤬

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Renewable energy now

Timothy Snyder@timothysnyder.bsky.social

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Chuck Schumer declares he will "reform ICE to stop the killings of Americans because no other police department in America is allowed to do that." US police annually kill 1500 to 2000 people, every single year. Either Schumer is that incompetent or maliciously lying. Please Replace Him ASAP.

Today 2/7/2026 is a great day to call WA State Legislature and let them know we want the rich to pay their fair share. Call 800-562-6000 to leave a brief message for your state Senator and Representatives. To reach any legislative number, call the state Telephone Relay Service at 800-833-6384.

Trump’s move to keep WA’s last coal power plant open past its retirement is a senseless, illegal attack on our state’s environment, health, and economy. We have fought for years to transition from coal to clean energy, and we won't back down. www.seattletimes.com/opinion/trum...

seattletimes.comTrump should butt out of TransAlta's planned shutdown in WA | Op-EdThe Trump administration is using its fear-based rhetoric playbook, raising the specter of rolling blackouts to justify keeping a Nixon-era coal plant running.

Tomorrow, Mike Johnson's majority in the House will be down to one vote, which means, in my humble opinion, that Rep. Thomas Massie has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!

Sahil Kapur@sahilkapur.bsky.social

👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

I just called my senators and told them to vote no on this BS. I'm so mad that I just called them again. This time I told them to remove Schumer as minority leader, and to install Senator Klobuchar. (202) 224-3121 Call the Senate! 1/29/2026 6:50 Eastern Time

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said. That is called murder when they do that. Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”
