At Netroots Nation 2026, Segann March makes the case for narrative as infrastructure

Brian Heywood could become the man who financed WA’s first statewide vote backing an income tax in nearly a hundred years
The right wing mega millionaire is betting that Washington voters will nix the state's recently levied million dollar earners tax, given an opportunity to repeal it with Initiative to the People 645 (IP26-645). Heywood speaks as though he simply can't lose. But he made a similar bet in the 2024 cycle that backfired spectacularly, with his money helping prove that progressive ideas like the capital gains tax funding the Education Legacy Trust, the Climate Commitment Act, and the WA Cares Fund were actually popular with voters.

Donald Trump’s lawless and corrupt regime dealt three big defeats in federal court as May 2026 draws to a close
On Friday, federal judges delivered three sharp rebukes to the Trump regime, reopening his sham IRS case, freezing his taxpayer-funded “Anti-Weaponization” slush fund, and ordering his name removed from the Kennedy Center. The rulings are not the final word, but they show that the courts can still enforce the law against corruption, self-dealing, and authoritarian overreach.

Rob McKenna’s tall tales can’t change Washington’s fiscal reality: Apples-to-apples metrics show falling investment in state services
A May 24th KIRO commentary by Seattle's Morning News host Charlie Harger that’s built around former Republican Attorney General Rob McKenna’s soundbites refuses to accept a basic requirement of rigorous fiscal analysis: raw-dollar budget comparisons across eras always yield invalid conclusions because they start with bad inputs.
