WA Dems mourn the passing of Jeanne Gibson, one of the last surviving Rosie the Riveters. At the age of 18, she came to Seattle to help build destroyers during World War II. She embodied courage, strength, and determination that inspired generations. May she rest in peace.

Someone brought a guillotine to a city council meeting in Salem, Oregon on July 27, 2026. Not a sign shaped like one. Not a drawing. An actual guillotine structure appeared at the protest to oppose a proposed multi-billion-dollar AI data center. Company reps reportedly left, citing safety concerns.

Why is everyone surprised the US lost 23 thousand jobs in July? You have cut tourism in half. Other countries are turning their business elsewhere to avoid tariffs. No one can afford housing, new vehicles etc. Come on. This shouldn’t be a surprise.

The Trump regime forced Haitian Americans into undocumented status, and is now using that undocumented status as an excuse to force them to wear ankle monitors. It was never about following the law, but about banning Black and brown immigrants while advancing fascism & Christian nationalism.
