Even if we ignored all the other crimes that Trump, Rubio and Musk have committed, Hell would not be hot enough for them.

Mamdani education plan would focus on helping NYC homeless students Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic front-runner in the New York City mayoral race, said Wednesday he wants to double the size of a program for homeless students at public schools in a plan shared exclu…

In the country's richest city, more than 140,000 kids don't have stable or permanent housing.

"Every Child and Family Is Known" — a small pilot program that pairs school staff with students and families in shelters — has shown real promise. I will double its funding and scope.

Some good news!

Flights are frequent though, bag will catch you in a few hours probably. Just make sure you’ve got good overnight stuff in your carryon

That’s super annoying but no.

Amsterdam runs better than a Swiss watch. It’s an absolute machine. Just make sure your flight attendant knows and the folks in the customs line know.

Mike Tietjen, who was promoted over a gay acting commander, the subject of multiple complaints in 2020, including an incident in which officers taunted a trans woman.

This guy has been repeatedly in trouble for violence and bigotry and he was just put in charge of the Capitol Hill precinct.

No surprise from Harrell. After years of mismanagement of Seattle Police, and a brief interlude of calm, he seems to be reverting to his usual.

Contrast the grassroots PAC supporting @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social with the PAC supporting @mayorofseattle.bsky.social--which is funded by out of town billionaires, Amazon's top lobbyist, real estate moguls, and Republican donors cutting $10k to $50k checks without thinking twice.

What a contrast. Geez.

A graphic emulating a baseball card with a headshot of Brad Smith on a green background with floating dollar bills, showing he donated $10,000

The back of the baseball card graphic with bullet points stating that Brad Smith is the president and board. vice chair of Microsoft, was paid 24 million last year, sold tens of millions of dollars of Microsoft shares this year still holds $240 million of stock, and is lobbying against Washington state in the golfing attacks. unlucky businesses model not jumpstart, which Katie helped enact in Seattle. Additional text says what he's buying: for taxes for himself and his $3 trillion dollar corporation.

In our second installment of “Harrell's Big Business Backers,” we present to you Brad Smith, President and Board Vice Chair at Microsoft, who took home $24M just last year! He wants to keep taxes low for himself and his $3 trillion corporation.

Contrast the grassroots PAC supporting @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social with the PAC supporting @mayorofseattle.bsky.social--which is funded by out of town billionaires, Amazon's top lobbyist, real estate moguls, and Republican donors cutting $10k to $50k checks without thinking twice.

Did not expect that organizing a PAC would be inspiring.

Our donors and their generosity--30somethings w/childcare bills making professional but not huge money ($10k!), young professional ($3k!) nonprofit worker ($1k!), unemployed person ($500!)--and so many small dollar ($1/$5/$25/$50!)

Outside groups are spending to try to take down Bruce's re-election campaign. Just this week, a political action committee backing Bruce’s opponent dropped another $75,000 into the race, bringing their total to nearly $200,000. And more money is waiting in the wings. Let’s be clear: this money will almost certainly be used to attack Bruce, twisting his record and misleading voters about the real progress Seattle has made under his leadership. Bruce has worked tirelessly to make Seattle more safe, more affordable, and more compassionate. He focuses on results, not grandstanding. But his opponents are gearing up to flood the airwaves and social media with negativity.

Incumbent Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell, a career politician and beneficiary of $1.3 million in business PAC funding SO FAR, is trying to portray himself as the victim of his underdog opponent, Katie Wilson, and her progressive supporters.

Woman says she was 8 months pregnant when Seattle Mayor Harrell pulled gun on her, leading to his 1996 arrest Rose Sanchez may not remember every detail of the encounter between her family and Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell from that late night in 1996. But there are details she told KUOW she’ll never forget, li...

Harrell, in contrast, said it was irresponsible for the media to ask about allegations that he brandished a gun at a pregnant woman who took "his" parking spot at a casino when he was a 38-year-old lawyer, because it forced him to relive his trauma from supposed racial profiling by the casino

In the press release where Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell lambasted his opponent Katie Wilson for dropping out of college, he also suggests she will "quit and walk away" when "things get tough in our city." You know things are tough when the mayor is attacking his opponent for something she did at 21.

and gets free box tickets to the Seahawks from HomeStreet Bank, where his wife serves on the board that pays for mailers that attack Katie Wilson

Our absentee Mayor who is, as staff say, "not into the details" only intervenes once in a while--to overrule staff and screw thing up.

See:

-Shrinking Seattle's housing plan ("comp" plan)
-Trying to move Sound Transit stations away from people, while increasing costs
-Ripping out safe biking space

Drawing showing the changes planned for S Orcas Street and LWB

What the records show:
-Major elements of the LWB redesign, like the changes at Orcas Street, nearly went out for construction before being killed by the Mayor's Office
-Parks staff were continuing to negotiate over individual elements of the project as late as early June.

Let's see - a twenty-two year old drops out of Oxford because she wants to get off the track.

OR

A 35 year old lawyer points a gun at a pregnant lady over a parking spot and lies to a cop about it.

I know which I prefer.

When quitting is n... So I was shocked — but hardly surprised - to read in The Seattle Times that my opponent dropped out of Oxford just weeks before graduation because she was turned off by "careerism."

Our mayor—who pulled a gun on a pregnant woman in an altercation over a parking spot—is outraged that Katie Wilson dropped out of Oxford University.

Harrell was THIRTY SEVEN YEARS OLD when he did that btw

we're supposed to do magic.

This is why the people who rigged our economy for their own benefit have already put about $1.5M into buying Seattle’s election for Bruce Harrell.

You don’t have to be in Seattle to donate to elect @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social !!
Her opponent has raised a ridiculous amount from outside the city between his campaign and PAC. Give today!

Contributions are limited to $650 per person, including Democracy Vouchers for the entire election.

I called the governor to ask him to sign SB 79. It was easy and it only took a few minutes.

Seattle Spent Millions on Hotel Rooms to Shelter Unhoused People. Then It Stopped Filling Them. Early last year, the city signed a $2.7 million lease extension to continue using a hotel’s rooms as shelter space. Yet despite committing to pay the rent, the city stopped sending people there.

"Because it is Lisa" and "because I want her out of the homelessness business." That's what Deputy Mayor Tiffany Washington said when asked why she denied a request by Purpose Dignity Action, headed by Lisa Daugaard, to open a shelter in North Seattle.

Much of this is pretty incoherent, but I had a good chuckle at "and you had many progressive politicians on the city council before I created Seattle as a human rights city"
Since @ericacbarnett.bsky.social has been keeping score, he did not use Katie Wilson's name in this interview either.
