The recent announcement frm Scouting USA (formerly Boy Scouts) that they are "realigning to be in compliance" w/ the Department of War & the Trump Admin's anti-DEI Exec order, makes me relieved that I never put my son in Scouts.
They're clearly shifting rightward

The release of the Epstein Files by the US Department of Justice is a historically significant act. The files offer an extraordinary glimpse inta the degraded morality of our governing elites.
At the same time, the Files have brought with hem a #MeToo Part II moral panic and witch hunt that is resulting in unjust cancellations. The most recent Epstein cancellation was a few hours ago of the influential medical doctor Peter Attia who resigned from his position as a CBS News contributor. Others include former Obama White Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, Thomas Pritzker Sarah Ferguson, Brad Karp, Larry Summers, Lee Smolin, Miroslav Laičák, George J. Mitchell David A.

Sign-in fraud is happening on a massive scale on SB 6346. the million-dollar earners tax. NPI staff are at an electronic press conference with many leaders and advocates who did *not* sign in con and whose names were fraudulently, illegally submitted to the record as con. #waleg
The response by conservative figures regarding the 1000's of fraudulent sign-ins under the Millionaires Tax is to both brag about it and claim it supports their claims about voter ID.

WA 'millionaires tax': Group alleges 37,000 fake opposition sign-ins
Feb. 23, 2026 at 1:06 pm | Updated Feb. 23, 2026 at 4:30 pm
People speak at the first public hearing on the proposed 'm.illionaires tax" before the state Senate Ways and Means Committee in Olympia on Feb. 6. (Karen Ducey / The Seattle Times
By Sophia Sostrin Seattle Times staff reporter
OLYMPIA -- An advocacy group is accusing unknown actors of orchestrating widespread fraud in the Legislature's official public comment system, alleging that tens of thousands of sign-ins opposing the "millionaires tax" proposal include mass duplicate entries and more than 100 confirmed impersonations -- including a former member of Congress and a sitting state senator.
At what organizers called an emergency virtual news conference Monday, Invest In Washington Now said it has asked Attorney General Nick Brown and House Chief Clerk Bernard Dean to investigate what thev described as "illegal tampering, fraud and impersonation" intended to artificially inflate opposition to the high-profile tax proposal.
The allegations undercut a central political argument against the income tax plan, SB 6346. Opponents have repeatedly cited unusually high volumes of public sign-ins opposing the bill as evidence of widespread backlash. Supporters now argue the integrity of those figures - and possibly the legislative record itself - is in doubt
Invest In Washington Now, a group that advocates progressive policies, including the proposed 9.9% tax on income over $1 million, said it confirmed over the weekend that more than 100 individuals were falsely signed in without their consent. Those allegedly impersonated include former U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer and state Sen. Victoria Hunt, D-Issaquah - a co-sponsor of the measure - along with teachers, union leaders, advocates and other elected officials.
The figures are considered preliminary and are expected to increase, according the group.
Beyond those individual cases, organizers said they identified 37,824 additional opposition sign-ins generated through thousands of duplicate name submissions across House and Senate hearings combined. In more than 15,000 instances, they said, identical names were entered repeatedlv - sometimes 5o to 100 times. Many of the submissions were filed late at night or in rapid succession.
"This is not just inflating and padding the numbers," said Heather Weiner of PowerHouse Strategic, speaking on behalf of Invest In Washington Now. "It's misleading lawmakers and attempting to influence how they vote."
Weiner said the group downloaded publicly available sign-in data from legislative hearings and analyzed it to sort identical entries. In many cases, she said, they cross-referenced the state voter file and found only one person in Washington with a given name, such as Kilmer's, and that person had not submitted a comment. With no other matches for the name, she said, the duplicates appear to be intentional, not accidental clerical errors.
Kilmer, who now lives in D.C. and is the senior vice president of U.S. program and policy at the Rockefeller Foundation, confirmed with The Seattle Times Monday he had not signed in to support or oppose "any legislation in Washington state" in his professional or personal capacity.
Hunt said she was alerted over the weekend that she had been signed in as "con" for a House Finance Committee hearing. The entry listed her organization as "State Senator.'
"I don't know why a senator would sign into a House hearing in any event," Hunt said.
Because Hunt has a relatively common last name, Weiner said the inclusion of her legitimate title suggests the submission was deliberate rather than a mix-up.
"Anyone can do this," she said, emphasizing that the data is public and the analysis required no specialized software,
SEIU 775 Secretary-Treasurer Adam Glickman said someone submitted testimony in his name opposing the bill at 4:32 a.m. Thursday. Larry Delaney, president of the Washington Education Association, said he also discovered his name signed in during early morning hours.
Heather Barker, a first-grade teacher and Seattle Education Association board member, said her identity was also used without her consent
"As an educator, integrity is super-important - that's how we build our trust," Barker said. " Having my iden…
WA Republicans & local conservative groups are playing dirty regarding opposition to the Millionaires Tax.
So far, at least 35k signs under con are likely fake and created by bots, which means public support for this bill is probably much higher

Tsemberis is concerned about President Donald Trump's July executive order ending Housing First support, encouraging law enforcement and expanding involuntary commitment
"This is an administration that's not following the science on anything," he said. "And what I'm very concerned about is that they want to move everything back to where people need to be in treatment and be sober before they get housing. It's going to increase homelessness. And it doesn't make sense to me."
Suarez has a much different take on Trump's reset to address the drug and homelessness crisis
"Heck yeah, his executive order and what he's doing at the border and taking down some of these drug cartel boats in our open waters that are coming here to take the lives of our loved ones - I am behind that a hundred percent," she said.
Not even 6 months ago, Andrea Suarez was publicly saying that she is "100 Percent" behind #Trump's actions around immigration.
She has also aligned herself and her org with many pro-Trump figures and groups.

Washington law prohibits state agencies from sharing information with federal authorities for civil immigration enforcement.
Last year, KING 5 investigators revealed Immigration and Customs Enforcement had accessed Department of Licensing (DOL) data to locate immigrants. The state later announced the state had stopped that access
But the UW report found Customs and Border Patrol agents were able to obtain driver and vehicle information through a separate system known as ACCESS - a law enforcement messaging network operated by the Washington State Patrol
If you are outraged by this egregious violation of trust and of Keep WA Working, please contact Governor Bob Ferguson, and your elected state officials, asking them to hold WA DOL accountable and place the agency under supervision.

UW researchers: Federal immigration enforcement still accessing Washington driver data
New cases suggest federal agents continue using a state law enforcement system to obtain license plate information tied to immigration arrests.
Author: Sharon Yoo
Published: 6:48 PM PST February 17, 2026 Updated: 6:48 PM PST February 17, 2026
SEATTLE - Researchers at the University of Washington's Center for Human Rights say federal immigration agents are continuing to access Washington state driver and vehicle data to make arrests, despite previous efforts to block such access.
In a newly confirmed case, video obtained by KING 5 shows a car with smashed windows pulled to the shoulder of Interstate 5 near Federal Way. University of Washington researchers say the stop from December was done after U.S. Customs and Border Protection ran the car's plates through a request for information maintained by the state.
Angelina Godov, director of the UW Center for Human Rights and lead author of a January report on the issue, said the incident reflects a broader pattern.
"That case appears to be an illustration of a pattern that we see time and time aqain - a vehicular arrest on the road. car abandoned there," Godoy said. "When we dug into the records, it showed prior to the person's arrest there was a CBP request for their data from the Department of Licensing."
After an investigation & public outrage, the WADOL cut off #ICE' s access to driver data, but didn't for CBP, who used it for deportation.
These are staggering levels of incompetence from leadership at the DOL, & a clear violation of Keep WA Working.

A woman stands in a ferry terminal, looking at her phone. Behind her are signs with anti-Trump messages, including "No Kings. No Trump Takeover." The setting is bright and casual.
Lol, Brandi Kruse is just realizing, after 8+ months, that communities across the state have been organizing to support local businesses and protect their workers from #ICE.
It's wild how drastically different she sounded 10 years ago.

INFORMACIÓN EXPRESA. NO PÁTICA: RECUERDA S. A.L. U.T. E.
S: Tamaño y fuerza - Es fundamental informar cuántos agentes y vehículos de ICE o federales ves. Si hay diferentes agencias de aplicación de la ley o policía local, tenga en cuenta el número de agentes y agencias involucradas.
R: ACTIVIDAD Y ACCIÓN - ¿Qué está pasando? ¿Una parada de tráfico? ¿Está ICE apuntando a individuos específicos? ¿Están los vehículos de ICE dando vueltas alrededor de una escuela? Cuanta más información, mejor.
L: UBICACIÓN - ¿Dónde viste ICE? ¿En una escuela o negocio local? ¿En la casa de alguien? Toma nota de las calles transversales y si ICE va en una dirección específica.
U: UNIFORM - Especifique lo que llevan los agentes. ¿Llevan ropa de civil, uniformes o chalecos? ¿Máscaras, cubiertas faciales, sombreros, tonos, o cualquier otra cosa que oculte su identidad? ¿Qué dicen las insignias o los chalecos?
T: TIEMPO Y FECHA - Una de las piezas más críticas de información a tener en cuenta al informar o publicar sobre avistamientos de ICE es la hora y la fecha en que ICE fue visto
E: EQUIPOS Y ARMAS - ¿Los agentes de ICE llevan armas? Identificar cualquier equipo que tengan los agentes (incluyendo quns, gas lacrimógeno, gas pimienta u otras armas) y si los usan en personas.
Recuerde utilizar el método
S.A.L. U.T.E antes de compartir.

SPREAD INFORMATION. NOT PANIC: REMEMBER S.A.L.U.T.E.
S: SIZE AND STRENGTH - It's critical to report how many ICE or federal agents and vehicles you see. If there are different law enforcement agencies or local police, note the number of agents and agencies involved.
A: ACTIVITY AND ACTION - What is happening? A traffic stop? Is ICE targeting specific individuals? Are ICE vehicles circling a school? The more information, the better.
L: LOCATION - Where did you see ICE? At a school or local business? At someone's house? Take note of the cross streets and if ICE is going in a specific direction.
U: UNIFORM - Specify what agents are wearing. Are they wearing civilian clothing, uniforms, or vests? Masks, face coverings, hats, shades, or anything else concealing their identity? What do any badges or vests say?
T: TIME AND DATE - One of the most critical pieces of information to note when reporting or posting about ICE sightings is the time and date ICE was spotted
E: EQUIPMENT AND WEAPONS - Are ICE agents carrying weapons? Identify any equipment agents have (including quns, tear gas, pepper spray, or other weapons) and whether they use them on people.
Remember to use the S.A.L.U.T.E method before sharing.
