  • Bunker Hill Merges with Silver47 | Spokane News

    Bunker Hill Mining and Silver47 Exploration are merging to create a powerhouse American mining company focused on silver and critical minerals, with Bunker Hill reopening its Kellogg mine as a cornerstone. Silver47 shareholders will receive Bunker Hill stock at a 38% premium, valuing each share at 67 cents based on August 20 pricing. The new entity, Bunker Hill Silver Corp., will trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and aims for commercial production by Q4 2026.

  • Two Missions Unite for 9-11 Remembrance | Spokane News

    Two powerful missions unite for a full-day tribute: March for the Fallen and Step to Remember team up at Hop Mountain Taproom & Grill in Mead on Sept. 12 to honor fallen service members and first responders. After wildfires forced relocation, the partnership makes sense—military and first responders already stood shoulder-to-shoulder during the crisis. March for the Fallen kicks off with a 9:11 AM march following an 8:45 AM ceremony, while Step to Remember challenges participants to climb 110 flights of stairs all day from 8 AM to 4 PM. It’s a moving blend of remembrance, resilience, and community.

  • Trump’s Auto Tariff Threat Sparks Market Turmoil | Spokane News

    Trump’s surprise threat to slap a 50% tariff on all Canadian cars, trucks, and auto parts starting January 2027 has sent shockwaves through the auto industry, triggering stock drops and sparking retaliatory threats from Canada. With trade talks collapsing over disputes including heavy trucks, the move risks crippling the deeply intertwined U.S.-Canada auto supply chain — forcing manufacturers to absorb costs or halt production. While Trump insists “build in the U.S., no tariffs,” critics suspect this is a negotiating tactic, especially with elections looming. Canada is preparing counter-tariffs, and public support for walking away from negotiations is strong — setting the stage for a high-stakes trade showdown.

  • Injuries Test Seahawks and Mariners | Spokane News

    The Seahawks are reeling from early-season injuries, losing key depth players including receiver Jake Bobo—possibly sidelined until next season—and another whose return is uncertain, forcing coaches to plan for constant player losses. A brutal first-play injury to second-round pick Bud Clark threatens his development and the secondary’s stability. Meanwhile, the Mariners face a similar pressure cooker: every loss, even walk-offs, matters as they chase postseason glory while hovering below .500. Strategic pitching moves loom—potentially shifting Bryce Miller to the bullpen if Bryan Woo stays healthy, or calling up a prospect if Woo struggles—with Miller’s health a critical variable in their rotation.

  • Idaho Funds Rural Healthcare Revolution | Spokane News

    Idaho’s rolling out a massive $1 billion healthcare boost for rural communities—$186 million annually over five years—to transform how care is delivered, empowering schools, libraries, churches, and community centers to become medical hubs where none existed before, tackling dangerous travel for care and investing in sustainable infrastructure so these vital services last long after federal funds run out.

  • Mariners Fund Youth Baseball Legacy | Spokane News

    The Seattle Mariners just dropped over $100K to empower Black and brown youth through baseball—honoring the legacy of the 1940s all-Black Seattle Steelheads. First grants go to Baseball and Softball Beyond Borders (getting $75K for a new youth academy) and the Black Heritage Society of Washington State, both focused on holistic growth: coaching, career prep, counseling, and education. This isn’t just about the game—it’s about breaking barriers, preserving history, and building pathways for the next generation.

  • Trump Admin Targets Roadless Forests | Spokane News

    The Trump administration wants to scrap a 25-year-old roadless rule that protects two million acres of Washington’s forests — potentially opening them up for logging and new roads. Claiming it will help fight wildfires, the USDA ignores evidence that most fires start near existing roads — and warns that more roads could actually increase fire risks. These untouched areas also host popular trails like those in the North Cascades and are vital for clean water: they supply drinking water for 25 million Americans, with some cities relying entirely on them. Public comment is still open until September 21, 2026 — your voice matters in deciding the future of these critical lands.

  • Cutlery, Weddings, and Modern Etiquette | Spokane News

    You just got hired full-time after that summer internship—congrats! But now your boss wants to take you and the new hires to lunch at her fancy club, and you’re stressing over cutlery. Spoiler: most places only give you two forks max, and you just work from the outside in. The real tip? Don’t look like a slob—no hunching, no open-mouth chewing—and stick to food you know. Meanwhile, a bride-to-be is planning to wear a tuxedo and wants her female attendants to wear black dresses. Miss Manners says breaking gender norms is great, but dressing women in black to match groomswomen still feels like seeing them as honorary men. She also thinks forcing everyone into the same outfit is outdated—let them pick their own stylish looks. And while she’s all for modernizing, she still thinks black dresses are too somber for a wedding—even funerals are becoming celebrations of life, so weddings should be brighter. Bottom line: think for yourself, but don’t ditch formality entirely.

  • Gifts With Strings Attached | Spokane News

    A mom’s extravagant gift-giving is turning into emotional manipulation—expensive presents come with strings, guilt trips, and a performance of generosity that masks her own power play. While she paints herself as the savior, her financial stability reveals the real game: gifts as tools to create obligation and control. Therapy hasn’t helped the listener untangle this mess, so the advice? Don’t overthink the motive—just set boundaries. If she starts negotiating after picking something pricey, redirect it back to her by saying, “Pick something you’re comfortable with.” And if the gifts keep coming with baggage, politely decline. Gratitude matters, but your peace matters more.

  • Kanter Booted Over Shirt Controversy | Spokane News

    Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from a WNBA game after wearing a shirt that sparked controversy, leading to a heated confrontation with Chicago Sky guard Natasha Cloud — who reportedly yelled and pointed at him during a timeout. Security intervened, and Kanter was escorted out as the incident unfolded during an Indiana Fever vs. Chicago Sky matchup. While players later downplayed it as a “fan incident,” Kanter’s presence and message were tied to broader debates about transgender inclusion in women’s sports — including his own public declaration of eligibility to play. Cloud remained silent post-game, while Kanter spoke with police before leaving. The moment underscores the growing tension around identity, visibility, and respect in professional athletics.
