HERE WE GO AGAIN: After months of co-existing with Stop The Sweeps volunteers, a few newbie's came charging at me today during the Capitol Hill encampment removal. These FAR-LEFT activists are insane. One guy hit me with his umbrella and the female kept chasing me. Wild. #Seattle

CALLS FOR DIRECT ACTION: Earlier this week, I found fliers in #Seattle's Central District, threatening anyone supporting sweeps. The Mayor was named along with parks dept. I spoke to several workers today who say officials have warned them to be on guard.

@MayorofSeattle

CALL TO ACTION: The letter lays out motive for threats of violence and playbook to carry out attacks. #Seattle

INFAMOUS MOMENT: Regardless of what you think of Kshama Sawant, she's had quite an impact waging CLASS WARFARE. But her City Hall takeover in 2020 during height of BLM was one of her most brazen moves. Here's never before seen footage I'm posting from my deep archive. #Seattle

CITY HALL TAKEOVER: Kshama Sawant opened up City Hall to BLM protesters back in June of 2020. Anyone who's followed Sawant knows it's never really been about race. She is a self proclaimed socialist/communist and is focused on tearing down current capitalist system in America.

WHAT A TIME: Back in June 2020, #Seattle was dealing with CHOP/CHAZ and Antifa/BLM riots. Day before Kshama Sawant opened City Hall, she energized protesters w/a pep talk. I asked Sawant about her effort to impeach former Mayor Jenny Durkan. Btw look at East Precinct boarded up.

@WADeptHealth

#EXCLUSIVE: After he tried to dodge me TODAY, I confronted Dr. Dat Nguyen, owner of building that could be home to controversial #Lynnwood OPIOID CLINIC. Biz owners in area including his tenant are asking Nguyen to reconsider deal w/Acadia Healthcare. @WADeptHealth @GovInslee🧵👇🏽

@WADeptHealth

MASSIVE PROTEST: After multiple pleas with @WADeptHealth, Acadia Healthcare, and even City of #Lynnwood, coalition of neighbors and community stakeholders are protesting on Saturday. This will be one of many according to organizers. They are promising a PR nightmare. @GovInslee

@WADeptHealth

LATEST FROM DOH: @WADeptHealth sent out response to community concerns over proposed #Lynnwood OPIOID CLINIC that would be few hundred feet from Alderwood Boys & Girls Club. DOH being put on BLAST by neighbors. @LynnwoodTimes about to drop more details!

@BellevueEAUnion

WOKE RUN AMOK: @BellevueEAUnion+FAR LEFT activists pushed to remove all #Bellevue school resource officers(@BvuePD) last year. Virtually zero local MEDIA scrutiny. @TheBSD405 now getting slammed by angry parents caught off guard. Defund police movement is a disaster. #Bellevue

@BellevueEAUnion

@BellevueEAUnion @BvuePD @TheBSD405 BARELY ANYONE KNEW: Last year, #Bellevue School District said School Resource Officer program was on temporary pause. Very few parents knew it was actually scraped+rebranded Community Engagement Officer Program(CEO).

@BellevueEAUnion

@BellevueEAUnion @BvuePD @TheBSD405 OFFICERS NO LONGER IN #BELLEVUE SCHOOLS? It appears this CEO program would house officers in a “central district office” instead of actual schools and on campus. Is this the right move? @BvuePD

@SeattleFire

#EXCLUSIVE: Tuesday evening, massive RV INFERNO in #Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood. Everyone got out safe. Owner of vehicle says he was trying to stay warm when propane tank exploded.@SeattleFire saved day. Neighbors came by w/blankets. @KC_RHA @MayorofSeattle @GovInslee

RV’S REMAIN LIABILITY: There are multiple RV’s parked across street from Wallingford post office. Neighbors have complained to city for months with ZERO action. Not just about fire risks, but more crime linked to campers. More thefts+gas being siphoned from parked cars.#Seattle

@GovInslee

MAJOR DRAIN: #Seattle Fire Dept. released latest list of encampment-related fires+medical responses for people experiencing homelessness for 2020, 2021 and 2022. All approximates. Volume spiking each year.

@CMTammyMorales

SAME DEAL: Did a drive by today on 3rd Ave+Holgate St. in SODO. It's been cleared multiple times, but once again, the tents and RV's have been back now for months. @CMTammyMorales MIA again on this issue. No timeline on this getting removed. #Seattle @MayorofSeattle @KC_RHA

@MayorofSeattle

PRESCIENT CALL: Back in July 2022, these biz owners said NO DOUBT campers would return and wanted to see how long it would take for city of #Seattle to remove them. More than 6 months later, 3rd Ave. & Holgate St is worse than ever. @MayorofSeattle @KC_RHA

SODO STORIES: Remember these fellas last year? For months I documented stories in #Seattle's RV community. Many say they are NOT HOMELESS because they live in vehicles. They KNOW Seattle provides a CONSTELLATION of services supporting this lifestyle.
