King County's homelessness agency had over $1 billion in grants available over six years.
They left $260 million of it unspent.
But they budgeted their overhead like they'd spent every dime. So they still ran a $16.7 million deficit, and borrowed from the county to cover it.
Their records were such a mess, auditors had to rebuild six years of books from individual checks and invoices.
Homelessness doubled on their watch. Councilmember Rod Dembowski says people died because that money never hit the street.
A shelter for older women in Kenmore got told "we don't have the money." They had a quarter billion dollars.
This isn't compassion. It's malpractice. Shut it down.

Remember when Dino Rossi lost the 2004 Gov race? Christine Gregoire was certified as the winner after one final recount nudged her ahead by ≈ 130 votes.
We had automatic motor voter registration at the DOL back then too. I wonder how many noncitizens voted in that election? 🧐
UPDATE: The US Attorneys for WA State have sent a letter to the Secretary of State and election officials in Washington with information about the 405 individuals they identified as non-citizens who have been voting, asking for their ballots to be set aside until it can be confirmed if they are legal voters
"Now that the state is on notice, it is incumbent upon state officials to make sure they are counting only legal votes."
"If the state of Washington knowingly or unknowingly allows a non-citizen to vote. They are canceling out or stealing the vote of the United States citizen."
"If you are not a United States citizen and you register to vote, and you vote illegally, we will find you. We will continue to investigate, and we will criminally prosecute those who vote illegally and those who assist others in voting illegally."

In 2026, this is how women are treated for peacefully standing up for their rights. There was no way I was going to leave that stadium of my own free will. We did nothing wrong.

Notice that the no on I-638 campaign can't find a single, current female athlete from Washington state to take their side. It's because girls don't want to compete against boys! Vote YES!

The Lindsay Clancy trial is a test of societal common sense.
Cora was 5. Dawson was 3. Callan was 8 months old. They were strangled by their own mother.
A jury is deciding whether or not the murders were premeditated. Lindsay Clancy used a workout band and her bare hands to strangle her children one by one.
The defense does not argue whether or not she did it. They're arguing if she meant to do it.
You can't blame this blatant act of horror on postpartum psychosis. This is murder.
We pray the jury makes the right decision.

Un-freakin-believable! WA state has a glaring pattern of wasting resources to fight anyone who criticizes their harmful and inefficient policies.
We Heart Seattle does incredible work to clean up our communities. WA government is supposed to work FOR the people, not against us!
State of Washington is investigating We Heart Seattle for picking up the needles and fentanyl foil they hand out.
For six years we’ve removed hundreds of thousands of pieces of used drug paraphernalia from Seattle parks, greenbelts, and neighborhoods, the exact litter created by government-funded distribution programs.
Now L&I is investigating us for “improperly” collecting the same needles and foil that officials freely distribute and then leave for communities to deal with. This bureaucratic overreach will drain time and resources meant for cleanups and outreach.
If you believe this is hypocritical and want the work to continue, support us today: weheartseattle.org
We pick up what they drop. Don’t let them stop us.

Quite an admission from former King County Elections Director:
“partners have contacted us about - voters who are not citizens getting inadvertently registered to vote at the Department of Licensing.”
So where did all of these extra mail-in ballots end up. 👀
🚨MAJOR SCOOP: Email obtained via FOIA shows Julie Wise, the Democrat-endorsed Director of Elections for King County, WA, ADMITTING that non-citizens were being registered to vote when getting a driver's license.
She then voices concern that the problem may be bigger than what the reports showed.
The thing that Democrats say doesn't happen, has been happening for YEARS!

Replying to @kristenmag
"fine to harm children as long as they ask for it first"
Indeed, a twisted & awful thing to advocate.
Reminds me of those defending masking young kids by stating, "They don't object."
What children will TOLERATE is not the appropriate measurement of how you ought to treat them!

Breaking: A Seattle neighborhood declares WAR against pimps shooting up Aurora Avenue while engaging in turf wars over prostitutes.
Residents say they have been constantly dodging bullets since the city decriminalized prostitution in 2020, resulting in open-air sex trafficking and an increase in gun violence.
If the city refuses to address the yearslong issue, some residents want President Trump to intervene and order a federal crackdown.

After 15 years covering the Washington State Legislature, I was just denied a press pass. Why? Because I have taken the public position that girls should not be forced to compete against boys.
I am one of the longest-serving political reporters in the state. I have never acted unprofessionally at the statehouse. I ask serious, well-informed questions and provide coverage for many Washingtonians who feel unrepresented in mainstream news coverage.
To make matters worse, legacy media representatives with the Capitol Correspondents Association conspired with Democrats in the House to weaponize an outdated policy to keep me (and other new media professionals) out.
Let me be clear: Legacy news reporters took the side of politicians over the public. Rather than help expand political coverage for all by welcoming independent media into the fold, they pushed for LESS press freedom, not more. They played gatekeeper. Not only to help their struggling outlets survive by keeping out the competition, but to help the Democratic Party in power keep out critical voices.
Yes, independent media in Washington state is overwhelmingly conservative. There is a reason for that. There is a reason more reporters are leaving legacy newsrooms to do what I did in 2021. Too many local newsrooms cover stories from a progressive worldview. They increasingly shut out 40% of the state and parrot the views of the party in power.
Offering my informed opinion on policies should not preclude me, or others, from having access to the spaces we need to be in to do our jobs for the citizens who depend on us. To shut us out is to shut them out.
I have advocated for a simple policy to govern press passes in Olympia – one based on decorum. If reporters can abide by reasonable decorum rules, they should be allowed a press pass. Podcasters. Bloggers. Columnists. YouTubers. Everyone.
I invite my friends (and enemies) in legacy news to show a united front and stand up for press freedom, as I have done consistently for years – even when it meant criticizing my own side.
If the goal is to hold elected leaders accountable, expanding old rules to welcome in more voices and more perspectives is the answer.
If the goal is to shut out anyone who might challenge Democratic leaders, then I guess the policy should stay the same.
