I didn't think my Mays, Jr. article would wind up making me America's foremost expert on Seattle's political corruption, but there are so many threads that branch out from this story and you just find more and more scumbags getting rich off absurd government contracts
Seattle gets away with this because everything is presented as being about "social justice" so people don't really dig into just how insane the government's behavior is
Once in a while a story breaks about the city giving grants to yet another rapist, but it's deeper than that

The problem with these "progressive" or "social justice" contracts is that a lot of "social justice" organizations have insane ideas about how criminals have been "Done Wrong by Amerikkkan Society," so you inevitably funnel money to convicted felons who just steal it all
They also engage in legalized money laundering. Seattle gave $3 million to an organization whose current executive director gang raped a pregnant teenager because they wanted to funnel the money through his NGO to an organization they weren't legally allowed to finance
This is such unbelievable corruption that I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't track down the evidence myself. They couldn't give money to King County Equity Now because it wasn't a registered NGO, so they tried to launder cash through a different NGO that then stole it all
And the NGO that stole all the money had a gang rapist who brutalized a pregnant 17 year old as their executive director at the time the money was given to them. Who could have foreseen that an organization with such upstanding leadership might misallocate funds?
