Do we need to remind the Speaker that he is still being paid to do his job

“I think what they’re doing is backfiring. Our numbers are skyrocketing.“ - @ezralevin.bsky.social on Republicans’ lies about the peaceful No Kings protests There are more RSVPs and events planned for Saturday than there were back in June. Please join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Immature yes, kid no.

Brown University joined MIT in rejecting President Trump’s "compact" that would erode nondiscrimination protections for students and faculty, campus free speech, and the integrity of medical research. Every college and university must follow suit and defend academic freedom from government abuse.

A reminder is that freedom of religion allows you to practice any religion you want. It doesn't allow any religion to be above the law. Let's protect kids not abusers! www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we recognize the resilience of Indigenous Peoples and the injustices they’ve experienced throughout history. I stand with our Native communities today and always in their continued fight for justice.

In South Carolina, more than 150 unvaccinated schoolkids are under quarantine after being exposed to measles. Across the U.S., total case counts could be even higher than the official number. n.pr/4obbfnK

Speaker Mike “little” Johnson said that No Kings protests are "hate America". We say, standing up against a wanna-be king is not hate, it is PATRIOTISM. #nokings #DefendDemocracy #DefendTheConstitution #nokingsseattle @indivisible.org #indivisible

NYC: Let’s show up later today to support Tish James. Attorney General James stands up to bullies, and that’s exactly why she was indicted by a prosecutor handpicked by Trump. AG James has always had New York's back and New Yorkers will always have hers. 👇

"I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires." Susan B. Anthony

And surprisingly they still get paid even if contributing members of the federal government don't.

Clinical narcissism refers to a mental health condition characterized by a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, entitlement, and lack of empathy. It is a form of personality disorder, as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). www.nytimes.com/2025/10/03/b...

In this moment of federal overreach and cruelty, it’s particularly important to know your rights. Washington state will always stand up for the rule of law.

This Is What Autocrats Dread. But "Successful democratic movements depend, above all, on courage." Must read for those formulating the Democratic playbook. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/o...

Welcome to a “Project 2025?? Never heard of it!!” edition of the MAGA Minute. Today, Trump announces his plan to meet the head of Project 2025 to gut programs supporting farmers, teachers, truck drivers, moms, and other Americans. But yeah…totally about Dems wanting healthcare for migrants… #RFA

Not the first of its kind and the target audience may be different, but every year I see the plans and all I can think is "oww", www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Interesting read and as usual depends on implementation. Note that under Sec.2.(c)(ii)(k) based on 1/6, the Proud Boys are a domestic terrorist organization. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

If the president fires a bunch of people, it’s not because of his shutdown—it’s because HE decided to fire them. People aren’t negotiating tools & it's sick that the president is treating federal workers like pawns. Making threats and choosing to hurt people won't win my vote.

Here are all the states Russ Vought announced just today he would be illegally stealing taxpayer dollars from. Have we ever had a President work so hard to hurt the people he represents? I'm not going to be intimidated by these crooks.

Pope Leo XIV denounced people who deny climate change today, arguing that they are contributing to the destruction of God's creation.

Freedom of conscience means freedom of speech and freedom of belief. We applaud the re-formation of the Committee for the First Amendment — standing up against repression is vital to protecting dissenters, doubters & the nonreligious too. www.npr.org/2025/10/01/n...

Okay - not really surprising except in its overt nature. Note the point that Trump would chair a handpicked organization with total control over all rebuilding funds. Wonder who will get contracts? Here Is the Full Text of the Gaza Plan Released by the White House www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/w...

You didn’t “restore faith”—you used your office to prop up an awful painting and push your personal religion on every cadet. Plenty of Mariners serve with honor who aren’t Christian and they know they cannot count on you to support them. Patriotism isn’t measured by piety.

Seems like a good time to remind senior military leadership that they are not legally obligated to follow illegal orders that violate their oath to uphold the constitution and laws of the United States or specifically violate the UCMJ.

What did you expect from media personalities. One with no military experience and the other with no leadership experience. As a vet, I find this deplorable. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

I guess the question remains - is this (and other HHS moves) better or worse than giving indigenous people smallpox saturated blankets? Trump Issues Warning Based on Unproven Link Between Tylenol and Autism www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/h...

Recognize to local leaders. Constitutionally defined roles and responsibilities that the current regime has chosen to ignore and the US Dept of Justice has chosen to not enforce. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Spare us your hypocrisy, Pam.

Stephany Gauffeny says she wants the world to know that her husband, Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez, is more than "just an immigrant or a detainee, or a criminal."

We stand against fascism We stand against military takeover We stand against kidnapping immigrants. We stand against corruption We stand against oligarchs and dictators October 18th, Noon at Seattle Center! Let’s March Seattle! #nokingsseattle #NoKings

She’s not wrong.

Further evidence that Trump considers himself and his armed thugs to be above the law. And SCOTUS and Congress continue to appease. Trump Fired a U.S. Attorney Who Insisted on Following a Court Order www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/u...

My colleague @jayapal.house.gov, who champions nonviolent protest & advocacy, received a death threat from an elected official. This is appalling & dangerous. People with different political views are not our enemies, & we cannot let calls for violence become the norm.

BREAKING: President Trump is again asking the Supreme Court to let him end birthright citizenship. The administration can't dodge the fact this executive order is illegal. We'll keep fighting to ensure no child's citizenship is stripped away by this cruel and unconstitutional order.

A statue depicting Trump holding hands with Epstein has been removed from the National Mall in Washington, DC, hours after it was erected. A group calling itself “The Secret Handshake” claimed responsibility for the satirical statue that included a plaque that read “In Honor of Friendship Month."

DHS subpoenaed Meta for information about an account that posts names and images of the ICE agents raiding our communities, but @aclu-norcal.bsky.social and advocates are pushing back. Recording federal agents while on duty in public — and sharing that information — is our First Amendment right.

The statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands mid-frolic wasn't the first anti-Trump artwork on the National Mall in recent months. But it was the first to be removed, despite having a permit.

So dysfunctional
