Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE 10 days ago. The bullet is still lodged in his back. He’s been forced to sleep on the floor and hasn’t been given medication, according to his attorney. Now DHS is claiming he assaulted an agent. Can we trust anything DHS says given its track record?

“No they really believe it” is a way better heuristic for understanding political actors than “they are on the take” 9 times out of 10. Sometimes beliefs are downstream of materialism and political economy. But these relationships are more complicated than “bribes”

The midterm results we're in for won't be the result of those Trump voters having their come-to-Jesus moment and suddenly manifesting empathy and social responsibility. It'll be because they stayed home on election day, stewing in their resentment, declaring everyone on the ballot an unworthy RINO.

Seattleites are most concerned about traffic safety because we all experience it regularly: narrowly missing getting hit while walking in a crosswalk, seeing people using center turn lanes as their personal speedway, etc. Most people also know someone who has died or been seriously injured:

When you read between the lines of this piece from the Seattle Times' "save print newspapers ONLY" columnist, it becomes glaringly obvious that he opposes changes to the proposed newspaper preservation law because it would open opportunities for small, non-legacy digital outlets.

Good job, California. 15 states to go. No child should marry. A child who marries isn’t emancipated, her (and it’s usually a girl) new spouse becomes her guardian. If he abuses her, she cannot go to a domestic violence shelter. She cannot initiate a divorce. She can’t have her own money.
