How much do you have to suck as an incumbent mayor that none of your ads list a single accomplishment & all you have is increasingly pathetically transparent scare tactics.

A federal judge has ruled that Roger Rogoff, the judicially appointed U.S. attorney in Seattle, has been illegally fired by the Trump admin and must be provisionally reinstated by the Justice Department.

Trump illegally fired Seattle’s U.S. attorney, judge rules
The ruling is the latest in a string of decisions finding that the administration bent federal law to keep loyalists in key prosecutorial posts.

The disqualified, loyalist US Attorneys pursued Trump's political agenda. * Halligan charged Tish James and James Comey. * Sarcone investigated James. * Habba targeted Dems performing immigration oversight. * Essayli claimed election fraud on TV. Rogoff did none of that — so Trump wants him out.

Let's not lose sight about the big picture here. Courts keep telling Trump that he's defying the constitution—trying to end-run Congress and the judiciary—to keep his top prosecutors in half a dozen states. All to have loyalists decide who to criminally charge with what in a DOJ under his thumb.

Don't enroll yourself or your parents in Medicare Advantage and this is why
At least one million US seniors will be forced to switch health plans next year as the largest Medicare Advantage providers cut benefits and discontinue some offerings in the wake of rising medical costs and heightened government scrutiny. About 390,000 people are part of UnitedHealth plans that are shutting down, a company spokesperson said. Humana has said that it will cut plans covering about 600,000 people. CVS Health’s Aetna and Centene are also shrinking their Medicare Advantage options.

October 1, 2026 split screen. On the left, what happened to Becca Good after Trump and others slandered Renee (from the family's lawsuit against Stephen). On the right, some calls Katie Miller's parents got. legacy.www.documentcloud.org/documents/28... www.justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/m...
196. Defendants’ public campaign against her and Renee, as pled below,
compounded the injury. Because senior federal officials, including the President and
Defendant Noem, publicly branded Renee a terrorist and a criminal within hours of her
death (as discussed below), Becca lost her privacy along with her partner and has been
made to relive the killing as a subject of national argument. She has received continuous Proia also allegedly sent the following text messages to phones numbers associated with the victim’s parents:

a.    “Good morning [first name of victim’s mother].  Does it disturb you that such evil as [Federal Official] is married to the creature that slithered from your Cunt?”

b.    [Photo of Victim 1]

c.    “My god, how can you be proud of this filth?”

d.    “Hey [first name of victim’s father], how goes it?  Hope your daughter marrying a Jewish Nazi/white supremacist is working out for you and [first name of victim’s mother].  Did you raise her to be trash or did that just happen naturally?”

My personal favorite approach to fix this is to make 6 months-5 years a part of the K12 system. I know that's just spreading the costs across society, but I'm ok with that, bc it's good for families. But we've got to find a way to fix it somehow.
