For years, a Yakima nonprofit has been collecting empty glass containers to be recycled, doing something the municipal disposal hauler didn't do. But the logistics of getting the glass recycled proved challenging, especially with no glass recycling facilities east of Washington's Cascades.
There’s no glass recycling facility east of Washington’s Cascades. So, groups are shipping used containers to Portland
When glass enters a landfill, it can take up to a million years for it to break down. But for many communities east of Washington's Cascades, keeping it out of the landfill isn't easy.

BREAKING: Hundreds of sensitive U.S. records obtained by WIRED undercut the Trump administration’s claims portraying Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua as a unified terrorist force invading the country. Intelligence agencies spent much of 2025 unsure TdA even functioned as an organization on U.S. soil.
Trump Warned of a Tren de Aragua ‘Invasion.’ US Intel Told a Different Story
Hundreds of records obtained by WIRED show thin intelligence on the Venezuelan gang in the United States, describing fragmented, low-level crime rather than a coordinated terrorist threat.

The struggle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.

The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship.

Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

ICE officers slipping on ice while trying to terrorize communities is the most accurate metaphor imaginable. No balance. No footing. No moral ground. Just cruelty, incompetence, and gravity doing its thing.

This is f*cked up!

There isn’t any law in this country that requires you to provide proof of citizenship on the interior, but unfortunately ICE is racially profiling.

And they don’t care if you say you’re a US citizen.

So where does this leave everyone? If you don’t look white, you’re in danger.

Are you feeling way beyond overwhelmed.
What is happening is happening on purpose.
The Trump regime is purposefully bombarding you everyday. For a purpose. You are living inside a perpetual threat broadcast.

News Analysis: President Vladimir Putin of Russia has been careful to avoid antagonizing President Trump as he seeks a favorable outcome in Ukraine, even if it means standing aside in other parts of the world — like Venezuela — where he might previously have played hardball.
Why Putin Went Quiet When Challenged by Trump Over Venezuela
For the Russian leader, courting President Trump to secure a favorable resolution in Ukraine, and possibly more, is far more important.
