GONE FOR NOW: I’ve got a lot of eyes and ears on the ground in Ballard. Monday morning, the tent set up last night in Ballard Commons Park is gone. Unclear if city moved in to sweep or if individual left on own. Real test begins now. Where’s the park staff? #Seattle @CMDanStrauss… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
JUST SHOWED UP: We knew it was inevitable. The first tent just popped up at Ballard Commons Park Sunday evening. I was keeping an eye on the park all night but broke away for dinner. When I got back around 8pm, it was set up right next to the public … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
INTERESTING DYNAMICS: The #Seattle Public Library Ballard Branch(
@SPLBuzz
) is right across the street from Ballard Commons Park and has been a refuge for the homeless, especially at night. Several men and women set up sleeping bags under the awning/roof … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
LOST MY BET: I told @CMDanStrauss the first tent would be set up in a week. Oh well. 🙃
Otherwise, the Ballard Commons Park grand re-opening this weekend was truly an incredible celebration. FAR-LEFT activists with Stop The Sweeps #Seattle tried to hijack … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
THEY TRIED TO HIJACK: Far-left activists with Stop The Sweeps #Seattle delayed the start of Saturday's Ballard Commons Park festivities by more than 30 minutes. Some of them were swearing in front of children and slamming Councilmember Dan … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
GROWING CONCERN: Look at the signs put up by Stop The Sweeps #Seattle. This FAR-LEFT activist group is well known for moving homeless people who reject shelter and services, to other parts of the city during encampment removals. Some Ballard Commons Park … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
EVE OF THE OPEN: Friday afternoon, crews were putting on the finishing touches before the Ballard Commons Park festivities. While many neighbors seemed excited, still tons of concerns about how the city will keep the homeless out and enforce illegal … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
REMINDER ON THE GROUND: This is what it looked like the day before the sweep in December 2021. #Seattle
DECEMBER 2021 SWEEP: Crews finally moved in to clear Ballard Commons Park. It was relatively quiet and uneventful. Prior to this, city did months of outreach and got people into shelter. #Seattle
RV'S GONE: It wasn't just tents and structures set up in Ballard Commons Park, it was also the RV's parked around the perimeter. #Seattle

NEW: Over the weekend, I was arrested for allegedly jaywalking on Las Vegas Blvd. Yes, jaywalking.
I was covering the 'No Kings' protest for Frontlines TPUSA. It was a chaotic scene as far-left activists started heckling Christians and other TPAction volunteers.
As I was recording on the sidewalk, I stepped off for a few seconds to avoid bumping into others.
That's when cops moved in and claimed I was violating the law. 🧵👇
I spent more than 12 hours in jail with a DUI suspect, accused wife beater, and a homeless drug addict. They made me strip down and change into an orange jumpsuit. I'm now facing a misdemeanor. First time in my life. Image
Two other elderly men were arrested for a similar offense. We were all released Sunday morning and must face a judge next month. As you can tell, they are both MAGA supporters and deny the allegations. Image

#EXCLUSIVE: An Eastside mother was brutally assaulted Monday morning by a mob of Issaquah High School students during an anti-ICE classroom walkout.
She says it was totally unprovoked and the cops just watched it all go down without intervening.
This victim fears retaliation so she didn't want me to use her name for this interview.
But this mom is speaking out now to warn parents and school leaders about the massive safety risks around these unsanctioned pop-up protests. 🧵👇

Last week a Seattle middle school student fell into a lake during an anti-ICE classroom walkout.
And in downtown Seattle, some students were caught vandalizing city property with anti-ICE propaganda.

Authorities say the boy struggled to make it out of the water but was eventually taken away on a stretcher.
Unclear if any teachers or parents were present during this classroom walkout.
Once again, student safety has been compromised for the sake of activism.
@SeaPubSchools has some explaining to do. 🧵👇🏽Image
Here is the narrative from Seattle Fire. Image

NEW: Bellevue parents better wake up. A communist group is trying to infiltrate several public high schools in WA and is now mobilizing students for a direct action against ICE officers.
None of this is student led or organic. 🧵👇🏽 Image
According to social media posts, a group called Puget Sound Revolutionary Youth is the mastermind behind this Eastside social unrest.
These far-left activists are trying to indoctrinate the next generation with commie propaganda. Image
Image
This is straight out of Mao’s playbook. Image

NEW: Seattle Mayor-elect Katie Wilson(@wilsonformayor) has an Islam problem on her hands. Or if you ask the Muslims, she has an LGBTQ+ crisis in her city.
Egypt and Iran are blasting the so called "Pride Match" next year when the FIFA World Cup comes to Lumen Field. 🧵👇 Image
Mehdi Taj, the president of the Iran Football Federation: “Both Egypt and we have objected, because this is an unreasonable and illogical move that essentially signals support for a particular group, and we must definitely address this point.” Image
Image
Iran and Egypt argue that the Pride event contradicts their cultural and religious values. Both countries criminalize gay relationships and in Iran it is punishable by the death penalty.
In some instances, they throw homosexuals off rooftops. Image
