Weekly reminder that there is no material change: no drawdown, families still in hiding, businesses losing money, peoples’ health suffering, with local and state law enforcement protecting ICE rather than citizens.
But a wonderful community of citizens providing aid, documenting atrocities.

Darius Kinsey took a photo of a snow-covered Reinig Rd. around 1940. Decades later it would be known as the “Welcome to Twin Peaks” sign spot in Snoqualmie, WA. He spent 50 years documenting the logging industry and forests in the Pacific Northwest. twinpeaksblog.com/2026/02/07/r...

The public library is an essential component of a 21st-century left political project as an example of both what is already available to us and what can be improved upon in the future. The library is a public good, and it is free as a public service.

All streets surrounding & exits leading to the Whipple Federal Building have been closed. This will be the first night AFAIK that the Feds, with help from local PD and Sheriff, have eliminated all protesters from Whipple since early January. There's been nearly 24/7 presence until now.

That highly classified whistleblower report Tulsi Gabbard covering up?
Guardian reports it’s an NSA intercept of a call between a close Trump associate and “an individual associated with foreign intelligence.”
Sounds similar to Trump’s campaign chair meeting Russian intel and sharing data in 2016.

This is self-censorship in the name of authoritarianism
It's called "complicity", not self-censorship. NBC hasn't met a Trump action since the 2000s that it didn't ultimately like or come to profit from.
Regardless of one’s feeling about it, such a public response to a political leader is news, and deliberately failing to mention it is self-censorship. It’s like if reporters agreed not to report on the man who threw a shoe at George Bush. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
