Fast-moving wildfires in Spokane County, Wash., have triggered ‘Go Now’ orders for suburban and urban neighborhoods in Spokane, Wash., on Saturday afternoon.
if you want to see normally sclerotic do-nothing local governments suddenly snap into action, do some quietly beneficial tactical urbanism type thing like this and watch how quickly they race to remove it
wishdaThe DSA in Wilmingotn, N.C. has created a "crisis" by putting benches at city bus stops, after literal decades of the city promising and failing to do so.
The Trump administration has for more than a year used personal information airline passengers provide to the Transportation Security Administration for immigration enforcement, according to documents obtained by a government watchdog group ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/07/30/r...
This is called a protection racket.

Exclusive from me — Daniel Moraff, one of the political operatives behind Graham Platner's rise and fall, has been accused of sexual assault. Full story here:
“The President who was buddies with a notorious pedophile and sex trafficker has a son who is buddies with sex traffickers” seems like a big story to me idk
salonThe manosphere influencer has lost the president's support — but he could pose a threat to Barron.
Might have to zoom in quite a bit as I have lifted/stolen this; but I think this is potentially the best summation of all the weird strategic and hypotheticals that price signals are factoring in across crude oil. C/O @roryjohnston.bsky.social
The Trump admin has signed a landmark 30-year "123 agreement" with Saudi Arabia, granting US nuclear firms like Westinghouse exclusive access to the kingdom's energy program. But nonproliferation experts warn it opens a dangerous door. My take for @thebulletin.org. 👇🧵1/4
This is a jarring visual every American should see. Trump has made $2.24 BILLION as President. Trump gets richer while you pay more for everything. Corruption like we've never seen.
So the U.S. has gotten itself into a situation where the State Department is now warning Americans about traveling...anywhere. "The Department of State advises Americans worldwide to exercise increased caution." travel.state.gov/en/internati...
travel.state.govGoldman Sachs, Citi, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan all predicted—and held to through June!—economic pressure would reopen the Strait of Hormuz by July.

Ken VogelSCOOP: After pardoning hundreds of allies over the course of his 1st 18 months back in the White House, Trump this month quietly rejected clemency applications from nearly 6,000 people who mostly lacked connections & had been waiting in a queue at the Justice Department.
ICE is quietly arresting more people than ever. After months of releasing no detention data at all, the new numbers show a record 1,474 arrests a day in early July, the highest daily pace of the entire Trump administration. 🧵 austinkocher.substack.com/p/ice-quietl...

clayrobinsonAny sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
So, just to be crystal clear, the Secretary of Defense is planning to dope the soldiers up on steroids. That's literally what he's saying.
