    Primary Elections 2026: Keith Scully, candidate for Position 1, Legislative District 32

    One of Washington’s hottest statehouse races is for a district representing northwest Seattle, Shoreline, parts of Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood. Legislative District 32 has an open seat, because longtime representative Cindy Ryu is challenging for a state senate seat. For Position 1, the candidate field in this solidly-blue district is crowded with Democrats.  For this round of interviews before the primary, Soundside is focusing on candidates who have raised more than $50,000 to fund their campaign.  The first of four interviews is with Keith Scully, a Shoreline councilmember and a lawyer. He’s also Shoreline’s former mayor.  He lives in Richmond Beach with his family. Guest Keith Scully, Shoreline councilmember, lawyerRelated LinksSix candidates vie for open House seat in 32nd District - The Daily HeraldSeattle-area state House race draws crowded field of Democratic hopefuls - The Washington State Standard Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

    Has TikTok ruined the Enchantments?

    The Enchantments are on the up and up.  Or at least, things are looking better than last year.   The 18-mile stretch in the Cascades has long been a popular destination for hikers and backpackers in Washington. But federal cuts and staffing shortages last year made the Enchantments pretty disenchanting.   In 2025, only one ranger was in charge of patrolling the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest - which spans 900 miles.  That made trail maintenance really difficult. We’re talking trash on the trails, overflowing garbage cans, and overflowing toilets.  It didn’t help that last summer, the area saw record-shattering crowds - with 2,400 people visiting on one day during the July Fourth weekend.  It’s been a year, and while some things have improved, there’s still a lot of work to be done in the region.

    After Spokane anti-ICE protest, FBI reportedly extracted data from demonstrators' phones

    Last summer, hundreds of people protested outside of an ICE facility in Spokane. They were trying to stop agents from taking two asylum seekers to an ICE detention center in Tacoma.  As the day wore on and the protest grew in size, law enforcement ordered demonstrators to disperse… and then deployed pepper balls and smoke grenades on the crowd. The mayor issued a curfew.  By the end of the evening, around 30 people were arrested. But the government’s response didn't end there: A month later, federal prosecutors indicted nine Spokane protesters on felony conspiracy charges.    In May, three of those protesters were found guilty of charges related to “conspiracy to impede” federal officers. They face up to six years in prison. It’s an example of the escalating legal strategy the Trump Administration has been using to charge anti-ICE protesters across the country, most recently in Minnesota.   And, according to new reporting, federal law enforcement turned to an atypical surveillance tactic to fuel the Spokane case.    An investigation from Mother Jones found that the FBI secretly extracted data from protesters’ cellphones confiscated during last year’s protest.  Guest: Schuyler Mitchell, an assistant editor at Mother Jones Related links: Public Records Show FBI Secretly Extracted Data From ICE Protesters’ Phones | Mother Jones More than 30 arrested at immigration protest in Spokane sparked by arrest of 2 immigrants | The Spokesman-Review Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

    The secret history of the Earth Liberation Front

    In May of 2001, a building on the University of Washington’s Seattle campus went up in flames, in the middle of the night. It was the work of arsonists. An eco-sabotage group known as the Earth Liberation Front took credit for the attack. For group members, voting and publicly demonstrating wasn't enough to allay their fears of climate catastrophe. The group had three core principles: public education, economic sabotage and to harm property, not people. But members torched the UW building over unfounded claims that professor was making genetically modified trees. The group committed a string of arsons, from Colorado to Seattle. For several years, the FBI designated the ELF as the most dangerous domestic terror organization in the country.  The group caused tens of millions of dollars in property destruction in the late 90s and early 2000s, according to the federal government.Soundside host Libby Denkmann talks with the author of a new book about the development of the  ELF.  Guest Matthew Wolfe, author, “Fires In the Night: The Earth Liberation Front, the FBI, and a Secret History of Eco-Sabotage”Related LinksThe Rise and Fall of America’s Environmentalist Underground - The New York Times MagazineThe many lives of Joseph Dibee, codename 'Seattle' - KUOW Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!
