Today, hundreds of Seattle high school students walked out of class and gathered on the steps of City Hall in solidarity with Minneapolis, calling on elected officials to defund ICE and showing support for immigrant students in their communities.

Happening Now: 20+ law enforcement vehicles, including a Minneapolis Police SWAT Bearcat, are staged on SE Beacon St as a noise demo has started at the Graduate Hotel. This is the 4th noise demo at the Graduate and one of multiple noise demos tonight outside hotels housing ICE agents in Minneapolis.

After a noise demo at the Graduate Hotel last Wednesday, nearly 70 protesters were arrested by a medley of state and local police officers. That was at least the third noise demo protest at the Graduate Hotel for housing ICE agents. [Videos]

LEAD CHANGE: Mejia, the Bernie/AOC-endorsed candidate, is now ahead of Malinowski.

And she’s been dominating Election Day ballots, so something would have to change for Malinowski to take it back.

Just like with Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the biggest sin any targeted immigrant can commit is winning battles — legal or PR battles — against the government, and they just won’t let those losses go

Sociologist C. Wright Mills saw this coming—and tried to warn us—60+ years ago.

jacobin.com/2026/02/wrig...
Mills recognized that as the power elite becomes increasingly degenerate, it is increasingly difficult for their intellectual acolytes to formulate reasonable ideological justifications for their corrupt and irresponsible actions. In these circumstances, the power elite resorts to intellectual repression against those who call attention to their declining political capacities; that is, the intelligentsia who work in universities, museums, the arts, scientific institutes, entertainment, and the mass media.

What did possess him. This is such a good question.
THE COURT: If I did a search of the entire Westlaw database and put in the Poly-America name and this 2020 Westlaw cite, I'm not going to find another court in the land who actually cited this case because it doesn't exist, right?

The tiny country of France can get 70% of its energy from Nuclear but our insanely large and mostly empty country cannot.

BUT WAIT the USA can build 200+ Nuclear powered war ships... We build 2+ A YEAR!!

We got the energy for war, but not our homes.

Make it make sense.

👀 Apparently, Ross Douthat invited Seth Harp to debate him on Douthat's "Interesting Times" NYT podcast. Harp says that the episode was recorded, Douthat got crushed, and RD/NYT decided not to publish it.

Today 1:01 PM Hey Seth, we've been working through the edit and it's looking like we aren't going to be able to make it work. We were kind of pummeled by the news cycle in the last 6 weeks and are going to pivot away from this story. Thanks for the time you put into it and for your expertise. Unbelievable cowardice on Ross's part and a giant waste of my time. I'm going to make it known what actually happened: Ross challenged me to a debate on foreign policy, got crushed, and doesn't have the intellectual or journalistic integrity to air the footage. Delivered Seth Harp @sethharpesq. •6h Five days after we recorded, an editor of mine asked me how it went.
