A 100% chance of rain is predicted to begin at around 5 am, and end somewhere between 9 pm and 10 pm. Over 2 inches of alleged liquid sunshine should fall.

Big weather events on the west coast can become BIG blizzards as they move east. Colorado is ahead of Washington in the race for the most utility customers without power. Heads up. This is your early warning.

The Feds Want to Make It Illegal to Even Possess an #Anarchist #Zine

#DanielSanchez is facing federal charges for what #FreeSpeech advocates say is a clear attack on the #FirstAmendment.

by Seth Stern, November 23 2025

Excerpt: "Federal prosecutors have filed a new indictment in response to a July 4 noise demonstration outside the #PrairielandICE #DetentionFacility in #AlvaradoTX, during which a police officer was shot.

"There are numerous problems with the indictment, but perhaps the most glaring is its inclusion of charges against a Dallas #artist who wasn’t even at the protest. Daniel 'Des' Sanchez is accused of transporting a box that contained '#Antifa materials' after the incident, supposedly to conceal evidence against his wife, Maricela Rueda, who was there.

"But the boxed materials aren’t Molotov cocktails, pipe bombs, or whatever #MAGA officials claim 'Antifa' uses to wage its imaginary war on America. As prosecutors laid out in the July criminal complaint that led to the indictment, they were zines and pamphlets. Some contain controversial ideas — one was titled '#InsurrectionaryAnarchy' — but they’re fully constitutionally protected free speech. The case demonstrates the administration’s intensifying efforts to criminalize left-wing #activists after Donald Trump announced in September that he was designating 'Antifa' as a 'major terrorist organization' — a legal designation that doesn’t exist for domestic groups — following the killing of Charlie Kirk.

"Sanchez was first indicted in October on charges of 'corruptly concealing a document or record' as a standalone case, but the new indictment merges his charges with those against the other defendants, likely in hopes of burying the First Amendment problems with the case against him under prosecutors’ claims about the alleged shooting.

"It’s an escalation of a familiar tactic. In 2023, Georgia prosecutors listed #ZineDistribution as part of the #conspiracy charges against 61 #StopCopCity protesters in a sprawling #RICO indictment that didn’t bother to explain how each individual defendant was involved in any actual crime. I wrote back then about my concern that this wasn’t just sloppy overreach, but also a blueprint for censorship. Those fears have now been validated by Sanchez’s prosecution solely for possessing similar literature."

Today in Labor History October 8, 1969: SDS Weathermen launched "Days of Rage" in Chicago, as a protest against the Vietnam War and the uselessness of national elections. One of their slogans was: "The Elections Don't Mean Shit—Vote Where the Power Is—Our Power Is In The Street". During the protests, a few hundred activists attacked over 1,000 cops and local businesses. Six unarmed activists were shot. Over 60 were arrested. They blew up a statue commemorating the police involved in the 1886 Haymarket tragedy bombing, which resulted in the execution of innocent anarchists. The statue was replaced and blown up again in 1970.

Today in Labor History October 6, 1969: Shortly before the Days of Rage, the Weather Underground blew up a statue in Haymarket Square, Chicago commemorating the policemen who died in the Haymarket affair of 1886. It was rebuilt in 1970, only to be blown up again by the Weather Underground. After being rebuilt again, Mayor Daley posted a 24-hour armed police guard, at a cost of over $67,000 per year. But it was eventually moved to an enclosed area of Police Headquarters. The statue was erected in 1889. In 1927, on the 41st anniversary of the Haymarket affair, a streetcar jumped its tracks and crashed into the monument because the driver was "sick of seeing that policeman with his arm raised." In 1968, on the 82nd anniversary of the Haymarket affair, activists vandalized it with black paint in protest of police brutality against the antiwar movement.

On May 1, 1886, 350,000 workers went on strike across the U.S. to demand the eight-hour workday. In Chicago, anarchists Albert and Lucy Parsons led a peaceful demonstration of 80,000 people down Michigan Avenue. It was the world’s first May Day/International Workers’ Day demonstration—an event that has been celebrated ever since, by nearly every country in the world, except for the U.S. Two days later, another anarchist, August Spies, addressed striking workers at the McCormick Reaper factory. Chicago Police and Pinkertons attacked the crowd, killing at least one person. On May 4, anarchists organized a demonstration at Haymarket Square to protest that police violence. The police ordered the protesters to disperse. Somebody threw a bomb, which killed at least one cop. The police opened fire, killing another seven workers. Six police also died, likely from “friendly fire” by other cops.

The authorities went on a witch hunt, rounding up most of the city’s leading anarchists and radical labor leaders, including Albert Parsons and August Spies. The courts ultimately convicted seven anarchists of killing the cops, even though none of them were present at Haymarket Square when the bomb was thrown. They executed four of them in 1887, including Albert Parsons. After her husband’s execution, Lucy continued her radical organizing, writing, and speeches. In 1905, she cofounded the IWW, along with Mother Jones, Big Bill Haywood, Eugene Debs, James Conolly and others.

Political Violence Isn’t New. But Something About This Moment Is.

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/19/magazine/tyler-robinson-political-violence.html

It's 84F outside at 9:30 PM, but the good news is that it only feels like 83F. This is about where tomorrow's high should be. There were no 90F days in the 10-day forecast, but now there's a 90 and a 91. Frankly, I don't trust that 89F, either.

I think I'll leave the sun shields in the windows a bit longer, although tomorrow should only be about 85F.

#Gresham #ORwx #WeatherUnderground #weather

It's 104.9F out there. I'm hoping that's the peak. It's 4:45 PM.

Oggi ho visto questo bel documentario sull'organizzazione di estrema sinistra statunitense degli anni Settanta Weather Underground, lo consiglio molto.

(sono stato piacevolmente sorpreso di scoprire che tra gli autori delle musiche ci sono Ian MacKaye e Brendan Canty dei Fugazi)

Due ex componenti del gruppo – una delle quali, Laura Whitehorn, è intervistata nel documentario – parteciperanno sabato prossimo alla tavola rotonda Revolutionary Women Behind Bars organizzata da @firestorm:
