We the people, in solidarity, can protect our communities from the President and the thugs he has hiding in every corner of this country. We must find ways to safely transport and house immigrants that need safe harbor, we must band together to refuse cooperation with ICE agents. Each of us must be like a pebble in the gears of fascism. 

This week on The Burner podcast, the gals say an emotional goodbye to Council Member Cathy Moore. In the style of Reddit's Am I The Asshole, Hannah complies Moore's greatest hits and asks if she was the "evil" "corporate shill" that she imagined Council Member Tammy Morales called her all along.

After Kroger and Albertson flung crumbs at grocery workers in their final bargaining session, grocery store workers at Safeway, Albertsons, QFC, and Fred Meyer are voting to authorize a strike action over the next few day.

If she’s successful, Sawant said she will bring the same fighting strategy she used in Seattle City Hall to end the genocide in Gaza, secure free healthcare by taxing the rich, and institute a national rent control policy. While she’s running on a straight-forward and popular platform, Sawant’s path to victory looks narrow.
