POLITICAL LIABILITY: Over the weekend, I caught up exclusively with #Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell(@MayorofSeattle) and Deputy Mayor Tiffany Washington to discuss the recent controversies swirling around the King County Regional Homelessness Authority(@KingCoRHA.)

1) KCRHA… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
DISTANCING THEMSELVES: @KingCoRHA clearly doesn't want want to have anything to do with this hot mess created by Colston. If she refuses to resign, is anyone going to step up and remove her? I'm still trying to figure out if this can even be done.
GLOBAL ATTENTION: This story is a disaster for #Seattle and @KingCoRHA. Gonna be impossible for the agency to move forward without some kind of resolution like ASAP.

ALWAYS ON THE MOVE: I love these One Seattle Day of Service events. You never know who you'll bump into. Finally tracked down Councilmember Andrew Lewis(@CMAndrewJLewis.) He's been dodging my questions about Olga Sagan(@OlgaSaganWA) of Piroshky Piroshky Bakery(@PiroshkyBakery)… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
@CMAndrewJLewis @OlgaSaganWA @PiroshkyBakery VIABLE THREAT: Earlier this month, Sagan announced her run for city council. When I asked her about Lewis' performance so far she did not hold back, calling Lewis a career politician. #Seattle

HER TOP ISSUES FOR D7: Olga Sagan(@OlgaSaganWA) says she's still crafting her game plan. But it appears her priorities will include addressing homelessness, public safety, and advocating for mom and pop businesses trying to make it in #Seattle.

POST MORTEM: Even before Marc Dones abruptly resigned on Tuesday as CEO of the King County Regional Homelessness Authority(@KingCoRHA), the agency was under heavy scrutiny for it's performance or lack thereof. Questions were being raised about spending and salaries, especially… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
@KingCoRHA REST OF THE LIST: Dones was stacking paper! These salaries put the pay in journalism to shame. No wonder so many reporters are exiting the business. Image
@KingCoRHA LOTS OF INTERESTING TITLES: I still do not know what all these jobs entail and how it's related to addressing the homeless crisis. Image

LEWIS REMAINS MIA: CM Andrew Lewis(@CMAndrewJLewis) dodges me all the time and never responds to my emails or calls. So I always have to track him down at public events. Last September, I asked him about his D7 seat being up for grabs. Now it is. #Seattle
