Political Potatoes

My personal Substack

David Neiwert writes about right-wing extremism and cetaceans. Preferably not in that order. Author, The Age of Insurrection: The Radical Right's Uncivil War on American Democracy, as well as Of Orcas and Men: What Killer Whales Can Teach Us.

I've been writing about the Northwest and its politics and ongoing changes, for newspapers, websites, books and otherwise, for more than 50 years. The core of what I see there - and of the nation, from a Northwest perspective - is what shows up here.
