Call me naïve, but I still believe the government should work for everyone, whether you're rich or poor, young or old. Your color or your class shouldn’t mean different treatment by government agencies.

So when I saw that Metro Transit had to suspend a route due to safety concerns, it made me angry and sad. The suspended stop is located at 12th Avenue S. and Jackson Street in Seattle's Chinatown-International District. While it’s not known as the wealthy neighborhood, there are a lot of hard working people there, small businesses and senior citizens.

The fact that the city couldn’t protect their ability to safely catch a bus at their preferred stop is embarrassing and unacceptable.

When you go to the doctor, the expectation is they will use their experience, the latest research and their wisdom to offer you the best path forward for your health.

But what happens when technology and algorithms play a role?

In today’s commentary, Angela Poe Russell highlights a problem she got to see firsthand.

The graffiti problem along Seattle’s Interstate 5 (I-5) corridor is getting worse, and it’s hard to miss.

Donald Trump's new treasury secretary is considered a fiscal hawk who will cut whatever it takes to get the national debt under control -- a debt that now exceeds $36 trillion. But it's a promise we've heard before. EVERY president says it has to be done. And yet, it never is.

Which is why every four years or so, I dig this song out of the archives to remind us why it never gets done

The internet continues to analyze the election, but look at this – a CBS News poll shows close to 60% of Americans, including some Democrats, approve of how Trump is handling the transition.

And the more I read the post-election analysis, the more I’m convinced voters weren’t just voting for a change – they were voting for a hormone.

Accountability is expensive -- now more than ever -- especially in this new media age where opinion is far cheaper to produce and digging up the facts.

This past election showed the line between traditional journalism and opinion is becoming increasingly blurred.

New data from the Pew Research Center -- and they do a lot of studies on how people consume news and opinion -- found a growing preference for digital platforms and opinion-driven content over traditional media like newspapers and network TV.

Matt Markovich looks at the changing trends in media consumption and news sources and the costs associated with it

Don’t get me wrong, I love a great headline, and Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene’s challenge/threat to Republicans is significant political theater. Sadly, it's also pretty disturbing.

To catch you up, Greene posted on the social platform X the following message to her Republican colleagues in the House and Senate: "If we are going to release ethics reports and rip apart our own that Trump has appointed, then put it ALL out there for the American people to see."
