Protesters take to Sea-Tac and airports around the country – and Washington state goes to court – over President Trump's executive order restricting travel to the U.S. from seven majority-Muslim nations.

Seattle votes to take its money elsewhere over the Dakota Access Pipeline and floats a new approach to homeless encampments around the city.

And UC Berkeley cancels an appearance by Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos over security concerns, sparking debate over free speech on campus.
