#SCOOP: More ASIAN HATE in #Seattle. Prosecutors say they charged WHITE HOMELESS man w/HATE CRIME after breaking nose of Chinese student near @cityu+allegedly yelling “China virus”+”Covid” at others. @SeattlePD w/arrest. Dropping story soon. @MayorofSeattle #StopAsianHate Image
WHAT SUSPECT TOLD POLICE: @SeattlePD says the suspect told officer that he sleeps in nearby #Belltown homeless encampment with his boyfriend. So much more in this court document. #Seattle #StopAsianHate Image
STORY I BROKE: Earlier this week, I reported on another Asian hate incident in #Seattle now gaining NATIONAL ATTENTION. This is not a good look for city, where Asian Americans now make up second largest minority group. @MayorofSeattle #StopAsianHate

MAYOR PROPOSES CUTTING ANTI-ASIAN HATE FUNDING 50%: Last month, @MayorofSeattle was criticized for this move. Asian American groups warned him that these hate incidents keep happening to this demo. Critics were right. #StopAsianHate #Seattle

#BREAKING: Authorities say standoff next to #Tesla dealership in Lynnwood, WA ended peacefully after man barricaded himself in auto body shop. Too early to say if related to #ANTIFA threats targeting @elonmusk's dealerships in #Portland/ Pacific Northwest. @MrAndyNgo @stillgray
SPOOKED: Earlier, there were reports of #Antifa extremists planning to target #Tesla locations in response to @elonmusk banning them from Twitter. So any incident at or near his dealerships(especially in PNW) will likely raise more concern than usual.

STILL IN PLAY? It's unclear how seriously law enforcement agencies in PNW are taking these on line threats from #ANTIFA

HUNGER IS NOT AN ISSUE: #Spokane
SHOUT OUT: Volunteers are wrapping up serving of meals. Everyone fed. Plenty to go around at Camp Hope. #Spokane

THIS IS ASIAN HATE: It's unclear when encounter in #Seattle's Capitol Hill happened, but vid was posted recently. Asian Americans continue to be subjected to this behavior. It's just NOT being reported. ANGRY woman pretty much lists every stereotype and insult. #StopAsianHate
INTERNET WILL FIND HER: Hey at least she’s a #Raiders fan. I love Bo Jackson and I’m trying to get Davante Adams in a trade for my fantasy football team. 😂🤡🙃 #Seattle #StopAsianHate
WILL MAYOR REGRET DECISION? Back in October, reports emerged about @MayorofSeattle cutting city's anti-Asian hate budget by 50%. But incidents keep happening. Some now asking, "What has Mayor really done for Asian Americans so far?" Good question. #Seattle

#EXCLUSIVE: Another fire at house being used by SQUATTERS on 5th Ave NE in Wallingford. Neighbors say homeless living under @wsdot's Ship Canal Bridge have broken into 6 empty homes on this SAME STREET. Still NO ACTION by city or state. #Seattle @MayorofSeattle @GovInslee @KC_RHA
SQUATTER HOUSE: Just in the past week, I have uncovered 6 empty houses on 5th Ave NE being used by squatters. Last check, only one of the houses had homeless inside. But others have been broken into numerous times. I've learned, most are now scheduled to be demolished.#Seattle
ON GOING STORY: At this point, @wsdot, @SeattleCouncil, @MayorofSeattle, @GovInslee Councilmember Alex Pedersen are all aware of problems associated with Ship Canal Bridge Encampment and now squatters on 5th Ave NE. Ball is in their court. #Seattle

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
