NATIONAL GUARD TIME? This is now the third weekend in a row I've been out to the downtown #Seattle core since Mayor Bruce Harrell(@MayorofSeattle) announced his Downtown Activation Plan and signed the Executive Order to address the fentanyl crisis.

HOT SPOTS:
3rd Ave & Pike… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
IS THIS THE MOST DANGEROUS CROSS STREET IN #SEATTLE? 3rd Ave & Cherry St in downtown is just one block from City Hall. More "trap tents" for drug use and dealing have been set up by the same folks. City sweeps, they keep coming back. No end in sight.

IT'S A FREE FOR ALL: Weekends are the worst in #Chinatown-ID. It's a marginalized neighborhood dealing with an out of control drug scene at 12th Ave & Jackson St that's come roaring back. But the black market of stolen goods is the real draw. #Seattle

FINALLY HAPPENING: On Wednesday, crews are moving in to sweep the problematic #SODO encampment right outside the Salvation Army and BMW dealership. It's been an unsanctioned camp for nearly two years and was supposed to be part of Dow Constantine's(@kcexec) failed HOMELESS… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
@kcexec BACK IN MARCH: A massive inferno engulfed multiple tents inside the unsanctioned SODO homeless encampment near the Salvation Army shelter at 6th Ave & Airport Way S. What a drain on the good men and women of @SeattleFire.


@CMTammyMorales @KC_RHAtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
@kcexec @SeattleFire @CMTammyMorales @KC_RHA MULTIPLE DRUG OVERDOSES: Back in January, emergency crews saved a woman suspected of a fentanyl overdose in SODO at this same encampment.
@weheartseattle was on scene as well trying to help. Drug use here is rampant.

#BREAKING: Gonna be a busy week for the Washington State Dept. of Transportation. Along with the #Chinatown-ID sweep, state will finally clear the notorious Ship Canal Bridge homeless encampment on MONDAY. It's also been the scene of multiple fires, deaths, drug overdoses,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
MAJOR PROTEST: Earlier this month, parents and neighbors launched a demonstration targeting Gov. Jay Inslee for allowing the Ship Canal Bridge homeless encampment to spiral out of control in #Seattle's Wallingford. If the Gov. doesn't follow through, twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
FEELING THE PRESSURE: After parents at John Stanford International School announced plans earlier this month to protest the notorious Ship Canal Bridge encampment across the street, Gov. Jay Inslee(@GovInslee) made an impromptu visit to the school and twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

NEVER FORGET: I launched this EXCLUSIVE story last month. Summit Sierra High School is caught in the middle of open air drug deals, homeless encampment infernos, and a black market that's thriving in #Chinatown-ID. This is just the latest crisis twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

ENTIRE PAPER TRAIL: On Wednesday March 8, I reached out to Kirkland media contact Sue Romero and told her I would show up. Prior to this email, I never met Sue in my life.

MASSIVE LIABILITY: Tuesday morning, another INFERNO at the King St. #Chinatown-ID homeless encampment. This is same @wsdot property that's now been scene of nearly a dozen fires this month alone.

TESTY EXCHANGE: As #Chinatown-ID fire was being put out Tuesday morning at King St. encampment, @KC_RHA, Lived Experience Coalition, and outreach workers were giving out food, supplies, and trying to help homeless get ID's across the street. All positive. But Roosevelt… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

#BREAKING: Thursday morning, another inferno at meth lab homeless encampment on @wsdot property. How many more times will #Chinatown-ID be victimized before city+state take action? @GovInslee @MayorofSeattle @CMTammyMorales @KC_RHA @WAStateCommerce #Seattle
HOW MUCH LONGER? This same encampment went up in flames earlier this month. If a meth lab with weapons, drugs, and guns isn't enough, what will it take for elected officials to deal with these extremely dangerous encampments on @wsdot property? @KC_RHA

WHAT A FIND: @SeattlePD confirming #Chinatown-ID fire on Feb 9 was meth related. Neighbors are so sick of @wsdot and @KC_RHA's empty promises. What else will it take for the state to finally clear this public safety disaster? @GovInslee @MayorofSeattle

POST GAME ANALYSIS: This morning on @foxandfriends, I joined a panel to discuss @MayorofSeattle's 2023 State of the City Address. Public safety, homelessness, and drug addiction crisis dominated convo. While Mayor is focused on city's future, others want solutions now. #Seattle
2023 STATE OF THE CITY: @MayorofSeattle
is #Seattle's biggest cheerleader and remains optimistic about recovery. He's especially "bullish" about future of downtown. But drug addiction and homeless crisis remain major issues threatening public safety.
TRYING TO BUY TIME: @MayorofSeattle taking political gamble by admitting he doesn't have "exact blueprint" in place to address concerns lingering in downtown. But some biz owners+neighbors victimized by crime are done waiting. #Seattle

HOMELESS STRATEGY: @MayorofSeattle sending message that illegal camping will not be tolerated. But key piece not addressed is plan to deal with homeless who refuse shelter options+just move to other parts of #Seattle. BTW no mention of FAR-LEFT activists undercutting his plan.

DONES FINALLY RESPONDS: It appears @KC_RHA CEO Marc Dones is trying to walk back his recent statements about encampment outreach and "permanent housing" as a requirement. He addressed the KCRHA Governing Committee today and NOW says congregate shelters are still an option.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
CALLING ON #SEATTLE MAYOR: Several John Stanford Int. School parents shared more frustrations on @KC_RHA call today saying @wsdot response to Ship Canal encampment is failing. They're now begging @MayorofSeattle to step in and act. But Mayor DID NOT directly respond w/ YES OR NO.
ENCAMPMENT PRIORITIES: Dones+@KC_RHA say they are prioritizing 3 specific encampments in #Seattle right now w/ Ship Canal being one of them. But this is the first time I am hearing the other 2 are in #Chinatown-ID! But he would not say exactly which ones. @MayorofSeattle

STUNNING REBUKE: WA state lawmakers like @AKB1968 picking apart @KC_RHA CEO Marc Dones and his "wrong" interpretation of @GovInslee's Right of Way Initiative. Dones' insistence on "permanent housing" delayed King County encampment sweeps. #Seattle @kcexec @MayorofSeattle
MORE SCRUTINY: @KC_RHA Governing Committee meets Thursday and "permanent housing" VS. "congregate shelter" debate will likely be addressed. Who will hold Marc Dones accountable? @MayorofSeattle @kcexec @GovInslee @wsdot @WAStateCommerce #Seattle #KingCounty #Washington #WA
GOVERNING COMMITTEE: Elected officials and influencers have clout in this process. #Seattle controls significant amount of purse strings as well. @MayorofSeattle @kcexec @CMAndrewJLewis @Lisa_Herbold @angelabirney @CMEdPrince @KccClaudia @JoeMcDermottWA

@SeattlePD @wsdot @KC_RHA @GovInslee @MayorofSeattle ENCAMPMENT EXPLOSION: Another #Chinatown-ID fire on @WSDOT property. My sources say meth was being cooked in tent. Where is Marc Dones and @KC_RHA outreach? Why is this being allowed? @MayorofSeattle @GovInslee
BEFORE IT GOT TORCHED: Structure w/blue tarp belongs to a notorious drug dealer. While #Seattle continues encampment sweeps multiple times each week, @WSDOT and @KC_RHA not moving at same pace, especially in #Chinatown-ID.

ENCAMPMENT EXPLOSION: Sources say Thursday morning's fire on @WSDOT property at S. Main St. and 7th St. in #Seattle was drug related. Meth cooking in tent. Were is Marc Dones and @KC_RHA outreach? Why is this being allowed? @MayorofSeattle
HERE IT IS: Structure w/blue tarp belongs to a notorious drug dealer. While #Seattle continues encampment sweeps multiple times each week, @WSDOT and @KC_RHA not moving at same pace. I counted at least 10 camps in #Chinatown-ID alone on state property.
MINI CAMPS: Clusters of tents+ structures remain in #Chinatown-ID on @wsdot property. Some have been here for more than year. Others popped up after massive 10th & Dearborn sweep few months ago. @KC_RHA @GovInslee @WAStateCommerce @CMTammyMorales

THEY'RE HEROES: @SeattleFire+@SeattlePD saved man's life earlier today in #Seattle as he overdosed on #fentanyl. When will lawmakers realize this is a drug addiction crisis? You can't build your way out of this! @GovInslee @MayorofSeattle @kcexec @SeattleCouncil @CMAndrewJLewis
CHANGING NARRATIVE: We see it on 3rd Ave+Little Saigon daily. City leaders must now admit it’s an addiction crisis. Every encampment is littered w/drug paraphernalia. Out of record 310 homeless deaths last year, majority were #fentanyl related. #Seattle
ACTUAL BREAKDOWN Of HOMELESS DEATHS SEATTLE 2022:

-70% fentanyl related.

-18 homeless people died by homicide.

-35 homeless people died from natural causes.

-10 homeless people died from hypothermia or exposure.

-7 homeless people died from suicide.

COLLUSION? As many of you know, my job is to ask tough questions and hold public officials accountable. Few days ago, @jasonrantz first reported on King Co. morgue running out of space due to fentanyl overdose deaths. I contacted @KCPubHealth PIO James Apa. Here’s his response.
MY INQUIRY TO DOW CONSTANTINE: Last week, I also reached out to @kcexec’s media handler Chase Gallagher about the Federal Way homeless motel and King County’s involvement. Here’s Chase’s response below. Notice any similarities to Apa’s?🙃
COMMON DENOMINATOR: Back in September, I confronted King County Executive Dow Constantine over community concerns about his HOMELESS MEGAPLEX. His media handlers tried to block me but I chased him down to get answers for #Chinatown-ID. Things haven't been the same between us.🙃

STUNNING DEVELOPMENT: In latest update, @KCPubHealth's Dr. Faisal Khan says, "the medical examiner's office is now struggling with the issue of STORING BODIES because the fentanyl related death toll continues to climb."
@GovInslee @kcexec @MayorofSeattle #Seattle
AMERICAN TRAGEDY: @jasonrantz first to report on this grim development impacting #Seattle, #KingCounty, and our entire region. Khan says medical examiner's offices nationwide dealing with same problems with storage of bodies related to #fentanyl deaths.

CURRENT PLAN NOT WORKING: Elected officials must now admit it’s an addiction crisis and it must be prioritized. Every homeless encampment is littered w/drug paraphernalia. Out of record 310 homeless deaths last year, majority fentanyl related. #Seattle

CHARGES EXPECTED TO BE FILED TODAY: Accused graffiti vandals Casey Cain and Jose G. Betancourth are facing felony level charges for allegedly going on a tagging rampage across parts of #Seattle. Cain(EAGR/EAGER) made bail, but Betancourth(SATN/SATAN) remains behind bars. ImageImage
GRAFFITI TURF WAR? Cain and Betancourth's arrest sent shockwaves throughout #Seattle's graffiti community. The duo was seen as "untouchable" since their work was so prolific. But they also have enemies. The word "TOY" is tagged over some of EAGR/EAGER's work. Sign of DISRESPECT.
DISSING EACH OTHER: If you see "TOY" tagged over another tag, it basically means they think your work sucks. But some graffiti artists say EAGR/EAGER is a "TOY" because he selfishly took up valuable #Seattle real estate and did not leave room for others.

Rachel Chandler who was an associate of Jeffrey Epstein and who was part of the fall-out of Balenciaga's horrific ad campaign has ties to The Black Dahlia's murder.

The cover-up of the murder of Elizabeth Short continues to present day in much the same way was the Epstein case.

OFFICIAL SITE VISIT: This afternoon, King County officials and some #Chinatown-ID leaders will be getting a personal tour of Dow Constantine's(@kcexec) HOMELESS MEGAPLEX. More protests expected. So far no MORATORIUM and the SHELTER is expected to open by end of year. #Seattle🧵👇
ROUND 3 RECAP: Monday afternoon, #Chinatown-ID rallied again. Based on number of elders who marched to the @KCCouncil chambers for public testimony, this narrative is turning into: Asian American SENIOR CITIZENS VS. Dow Constantine(@kcexec) and his HOMELESS MEGAPLEX. #Seattle
CAUGHT OFF GUARD: Members from other communities that had homeless hotels or shelters dumped into their neighborhoods by King County leaders are now starting to join the #Chinatown-ID cause. They know what it's like NOT to be consulted. #Seattle
