SIGNS OF HOPE IN #BURIEN: At this point, the homeless know they cannot stay outside the Library & City Hall. Most of the men and women are preparing to leave by the end of the month. But where will they go? Even though Burien is in King County, neighbors say they have not seen a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
POTENTIAL CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?
Showdown is looming in #Burien. Monday evening, frustrated biz owners and neighbors formed their own coalition, hoping to take back the city on their terms and conditions. This community is fighting back against what's twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
CITY'S RESPONSE: Right now, @Burien officials say they cannot comment on any pending litigation. Let's see if the biz owners follow through. #Burien Image
@Burien EVERYONE HAS A STORY AND A JOURNEY: The homeless at outside #Burien Library & City Hall are from all over the place. I met men and women from #Seattle, #Tukwila, and even #NewYork. Some want to be out here to do drugs, but others say they are ready to twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
WILL THERE BE INTERFERENCE? When crews remove the homeless on Friday, there's already concern FAR-LEFT activists will try to stop them. Will Krystal Marx(@bcckrystalmarx) show up with protesters? Will Stop the Sweeps Seattle make the trek to #Burien?

#BREAKING: Violent far-left activist Alex Randall has created a hit-list of what he calls “RIGHTWING GRIFTERS, Doxxers, and Harassers,” operating in Seattle. He posted it on his @Youtube page on Saturday but then took it down for some reason. Our spies did manage to get a copy and screen shot of the post.
Either way, the Nordstrom(@Nordstrom) employee went on unhinged rants about conservatives and encouraged his followers to target certain independent journalists.
🧵👇🏽Image
Making the list:

-Jonathan Choe(@choeshow)
-Matthew Adams(@jerkinyourchain)
-Cam Higby(@camhigby)
-Katie Daviscourt(@KatieDaviscourt)
-Brandi Kruse(@BrandiKruse)
-Chelly Bouferrache(@hunnybadgermom)
-Jessica McClure
-Mark Willams
-Stealth Productions
-Bennett Haselton
@jerkinyourchain @camhigby @KatieDaviscourt @BrandiKruse @hunnybadgermom Randall’s playbook is simple. He targets people he doesn’t like and just yells at them, hoping they cower in fear. He records his encounters and then posts them on @YouTube with unhinged hot takes. Rinse and repeat.

#BREAKING: President Trump will sign an executive order that will start to defund and dismantle the failed Housing First policy that has led to record homelessness in America, especially in cities like Seattle, San Francisco, Portland, and LA.
I’m proud to say our research and journalism at Discovery Insitutute(@DiscoveryCWP) played a crucial role in this major development. 🧵👇🏽Image
Image
Sources in the White House also tell me the executive order will strip federal funding for “harm reduction” initiatives that have enabled record drug overdose deaths. This is a worst case scenario for needle exchanges and the “homeless industrial complex.” Image
No more federal funding for “permanent supportive housing.”
Instead, all that money will now be put toward short term shelters, addiction treatment, and detox.
This executive order undercuts the entire business models for places like DESC and Plymouth Housing.

NEW: WA Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal(@RepJayapal) just introduced a bill that allows homeless people to camp on federal land if they have no other options. This was simply political theater and won't go anywhere. Here's the real problem for Jayapal. 🧵👇
Despite billions of dollars spent over the years, Washington state has the third largest homeless population in America with more than 31K people living on the streets. That's likely an undercount. This is all happening under Jayapal's watch. Image
Part of the problem is her far-left progressive ideology. Here's what she recently told the Seattle Times: “Because I don’t think that homelessness is a failure of the individual,” she said. “I think it’s a failure of the system. I think it’s a failure of our policymaking.” Image

NEW: Saturday evening, independent journalist
@camhigby got ambushed and sucker-punched by an Antifa thug. So far no arrests.
Higby says he suffered a concussion. But it could have been far worse if he wasn't wearing a helmet and carrying pepper spray. 🧵👇
Higby says Antifa acolyte Tyler Hahn is the one who outed him in the crowd and physically pinned him to the ground. But Higby says another man is the one who threw the punches. Image
Image
Higby says this man right here is the primary attacker and threw the punches. Let’s make him famous. @SeattlePD Image

#BREAKING: Seattle restauranteur David Meinert says the massive Microsoft Build (@Microsoft) developer conference won't be returning to Seattle next year after attendees complained about urban decay, open-air drug use, and numerous tents lining the streets.
🧵👇 Image
Image
Meinert is also torching Mayor Bruce Harrell(@MayorofSeattle) for allowing these conditions to prosper in the downtown core and claims the Downtown Activation plan is bloated with bureaucracy and is lacking leadership. Image
Image
Pro-Hamas protesters also disrupted Microsoft Build 2025 in Seattle, harassing attendees with insane glitter bombs.

NEW: Hundreds of evangelical Christians will pack Seattle City Hall Tuesday evening (5pm) to demand an apology and resignation from Mayor Bruce Harrell(@MayorofSeattle.)
Over the weekend, he called their concert an "extreme right-wing rally." 🧵👇
Instead of condemning the Antifa violence, the Mayor victim blamed the Christians and accused them of hosting their event at Cal Anderson Park to provoke the LGBTQ community. Here is the original release.
The Mayor lied. I have obtained an email showing the Christians actually wanted to host the concert at a park near Pike Place Market. The city suggested other options like Cal Anderson Park and then gave out the permit.
