The Best Seafood Restaurants in Seattle

Seattle is synonymous with seafood, and anyone who visits from out of town naturally wants to know where the city’s best seafood is. But that’s a tricky question. There are some self-described “seafood restaurants,” but fish and shellfish work their way into nearly every menu around Puget Sound. This includes oysters on the half shell […]

South Park has (Highway) 99 problems

Highway 99 was built through Seattle’s South Park neighborhood in the late 1950s, as a way to support the city’s burgeoning industrial sector.

Sense narrowly prevails at SCOTUS as Roberts, Barrett, and the liberals uphold birthright citizenship over right wing dissents

On June 30th, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment in a split decision, affirming that children born in the U.S. are citizens, whether or not their parents have citizenship or not. The ruling hopefully has the effect of ending Donald Trump's attempts to overturn this sacred constitutional guarantee.

VICTORY! Democracy wins, authoritarians lose as laws allowing postmarked ballots to count are upheld in SCOTUS stunner

In the case of Watson v. Republican National Committee, the Court's six member right wing bloc splintered. Two of the bloc joined with the liberals to hold that the federal election-day statutes (3 U. S. C. §1, 2 U. S. C. §§ 1, 7) "do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by election day but received up to five days thereafter; nothing in the federal election-day statutes requires ballots to be received by election day." This means Washington, Oregon, and other states can keep counting ballots with a timely postmark that are delivered after Election Day. VICTORY! Democracy wins, authoritarians lose as laws allowing postmarked ballots to count are upheld in SCOTUS stunner is a post from NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the journal of the Northwest Progressive Institute.
