It is very important that your federal electeds hear not only from you on social media, but through direct contact as well. Tag them and then
Call and email. Do both. Tell them to move to immediately impeach and remove for an unconstitutional war of aggression.

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.
The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

Yes, younger voters overwhelmingly support my campaign, and sure, the youth are the repository of idealism. But you know what else? They’re the ones who feel the affordability crisis in their bones, who can’t imagine building a life here because rent, food, childcare, everything costs so much.

I genuinely enjoy reading the city's budget book, a high-level look at what our taxes pay for. Not very deep in yet and I've learned the budget adds $762,000 for expansion of the Joint Enforcement Team, recently in the news for raiding gay bars in search of "lewd" conduct.

The Times seems unaware that dense infill housing is the way to protect Seattle's urban forest. The main threat to our trees is heat and drought. The Times is essentially editorializing against climate action here.

RE-TIME SIGNALS. Currently, Seattle's downtown traffic signals are timed for 25 mph, which is fine for cars but leaves bikes waiting every few blocks. Reducing that to 12.5 mph—as they did in Portland—can improve safety and move all modes more effectively.

The most infuriating moment from last night was how CM Juarez reduced public concerns over surveillance to a "data breach"

NO ONE WAS SAYING THAT. The feds didn't get WA immigrants' DOL data from hackers
Juarez questions "misinformation" from the audience, and says she's "seen it all" after being on the Council for so long. She said she deals with "death" every day and calls the audience members "privileged." "Our babies are being killed."
