MeerKAT radio continuum and XMM-Newton X-ray images have recently revealed aspectacular bipolar channel at the Galactic Center that spans several degrees($\sim$0.5 kpc). An intermittent jet likely formed this channel and isconsistent with earlier evidence of a sustained, Seyfert-level outburst fueledby black-hole accretion onto Sgr A$^*$ several Myr ago. Therefore, to trace anow weak jet that perhaps penetrated, deflected, and percolated along multiplepaths through the interstellar medium, relevant interactions are identified andquantified in archival X-ray images, Hubble Space Telescope Paschen $\alpha$images and Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array millimeter-wavespectra, and new SOAR telescope IR spectra. Hydrodynamical simulations are usedto show how a currently weak jet can explain these structures and inflate theROSAT/eROSITA X-ray and Fermi $\gamma$-ray bubbles that extend $\pm75\deg$ fromthe Galactic plane. Thus, our Galactic outflow has features in common withenergetic, jet-driven structures in the prototypical Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068.
