Washington State Passes ‘Millionaires’ Tax’ It would be the first income tax in Washington, affecting an estimated 20,000 households. Some of the wealthiest are leaving for Florida.

Lawmakers in Washington State have agreed to tax people who earn over $1 million in the state’s first income tax.

Do I Have the Right to Film ICE? Despite government attacks against protesters and the press, documenting interactions with law enforcement and federal agents is protected by the First Amendment. Here’s what you need to know.

Yes.

ICE agents don't get to carve out a First Amendment exception for themselves.

Hard to draw a protest crowd at 7:30AM. But those of us that could make it had a good time. We learn something new, every time we show up. #Huntsville #Alabama

Wes Allen faces constitutional residency questions as race heats up Morgan County GOP leaders questioned whether Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen met constitutional residency requirements while maintaining a home in Pike County.

(Nothing to do with Tuberville.)

Pot holder calls Kettle black.

"In a press release circulated late Wednesday evening, Morgan County Republican Party Chairman Julie Clausen questioned whether Allen met the residency requirements of the office of secretary of state."

#Alabama #Democrats aren't used to this. You have choices in the *primary* election. That's on May 19, 2026.

Look at this:

You have 4 Democrats running for U.S. Senate. For us, here in Madison County, we have 3 candidates running for the 5th Congressional District.

But wait! There's more!

Why do arms dealers advertise? In Washington, this stuff is so common nobody seems to notice. But to those of us from the rest of America? It’s kinda weird. And telling.

Do you have this information on your phone? You should.

You never know when you might want to reach out to your Congressman and tell him you don't want us in a war with Iran. Or that you don't support ICE terrorizing your neighbors. Or shooting American citizens in the street.

"Soros, a billionaire with a net worth over $7 billion, has long been a major donor to Democratic causes, but his ties to Alabama politics are minimal."

Come on folks. Elon Musk is worth over 100 times that much ($840 BILLION) and he ran DOGE.

Republicans says they believe in voter ID, but when one of their own got caught in the snare, what happened? Donald Trump endorsed him. I give you the curious case of John Wahl.

Corporations can't vote. YOU can.

But you have to be registered. Register NOW.

If you THINK you are registered, check and make sure you weren't "purged". Yes, it happens. Make SURE it didn't happen to you.

Come help us fix it. We like what he says. Universal healthcare, unions, reject big money, fight back, and on and on.

We aren't in Washington. We're in Madison County, Alabama. And there are a million things that need doing here at home.

We meet the 3rd Thursday of every month. And money helps.
