N Concourse was K-poppin’ today! Travelers got a surprise performance from Andrew Choi — the singing voice of Jinu in @netflix’s K-Pop Demon Hunters — after he helped celebrate @AlaskaAir’s new nonstop flight to Seoul.

@ianbremmer They're an island...where do they think they came from? 🤣

[Alaska Air Group News Hub @AlaskaAirNews]

At approximately 8 p.m. Pacific on July 20, we experienced an IT outage that resulted in a temporary, system-wide ground stop for Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air flights.

As of 11 p.m. Pacific, the ground stop has been lifted, and our operations have resumed.

As we reposition our aircraft and crews, there will most likely be residual impacts to our flights. It will take some time to get our overall operations back to normal.

We apologize for the inconvenience and encourage guests to check the status of your flight before leaving for the airport.

Alaska Airlines is experiencing an IT outage affecting operations. A temporary ground stop is in place. We apologize for the inconvenience. If you're scheduled to fly tonight, please check your flight status before heading to the airport.

@Boeing74 @flySEA We dont allow it. Its not port owned road--its a state highway. We dont have jurisdiction. We are working on a delegation.

@ianbremmer That makes him a bully???

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

entire fullbright board resigns citing claims of trump admin interference

saying their legacy depends on “the integrity of the program’s selection process based on merit, not ideology, and its insulation from political interference. that integrity is now undermined.”

Thankful to everyone who joined me at the Port of Seattle today to discuss the impact Trump’s tariffs are having in WA.

This trade war hurts workers, businesses, health care providers, & many others in our region.

[Sam Cho @SamChoTweets]

@RepDelBene @PortofSeattle @SeaportNW Thank you for meeting with us and for all your advocacy congresswoman!!

A not-empty port experiencing front-loading, as understood by @SamChoTweets! https://t.co/kIP3um3Oq7

[Sam Cho @SamChoTweets]

I appreciate the opportunity to educate the viewers of @SeattleChannel on tariffs!!

[Brian Callanan @callananseattle]

In WA state, 2 out of 5 jobs depend on trade, so #tariffs are a big concern. @PortofSeattle Commissioner @SamChoTweets talked to me about this on @SeattleChannel--check out the clip here. Full show, w/@WAStateCommerce & @SeattleChamber: https://t.co/nXaAs9rNgy @WWConverge

[Seattle Channel @SeattleChannel]

2 in 5 jobs in our state are tied to trade, which puts our economy in a particularly vulnerable position in light of Trump's uncertain & evolving tariffs. @callananseattle hosts @WAStateCommerce, @SeattleChamber, @SamChoTweets to discuss impacts: https://t.co/q4XABCOUny

@RoyDelfino @ryancalkinsSEA @FredFelleman @ToshikoGrace If you have an Enhanced Driver's License (EDL) that qualifies as a REAL ID. If you have a normal driver's license, you can go to your local DMV to upgrade to an EDL. Your passport and other federally issued ID's i.e. Global Entry, Nexus are also all REAL ID. Hope this helped

@jaltucher Have you lived under a rock. Do you know what happened between 2020 and 2022? What's happening today was self-inflicted...🤦🏻‍♂️

[Sam Cho @SamChoTweets]

@BillAckman @realDonaldTrump So what's the deal?

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

out: free trade
in: the r word

[Mungo Woodifield @Mungo]

Excellent conversation with @PortofSeattle Commissioner @samchotweets about shared UK-Seattle trade interests and decarbonisation agenda - and being grad students in London!
