This is a textbook case for recusal.

I bet you could poll Sara Nelson’s agenda - cut taxes on big corporations, cut library hours, cut the minimum wage, dumb down the police exam, etc - and Seattleites would oppose it. Probably strongly.
I’m sure the Chamber actually knows better than this, but unfortunately, its biggest member has too much power and is dictating obviously foolish policy.

Crime fell in 2023 in Seattle and murders are down so far this year. @CMSaraNelson is manufacturing a crisis

So this is extremely irresponsible of Nelson to say. We need to get the mayor and every other city councilmember on the record about whether they agree with Nelson here.

Turn the sound on and watch. This is violent suppression of free speech and other fundamental American rights resulting from efforts to delegitimize and criminalize criticism of Israel. It’s an offense against our democracy and must immediately stop.

We forced this generation to endure middle school mass shootings and the minute they got to college our government pointed sniper rifles at them. The point has always been control.

I love how for half a century we've been told that there's 'no demand for rail', yet a private company finds connecting major cities by rail so obvious that they're spending billions to do it.
A weird statement in response to Politico's report. No refutation of the most explosive claim by an unnamed NYT reporter, that Sulzberger pushed negative coverage of Biden's age as retribution for not being granted an interview, only attacks on Biden for not speaking to them.

A would have expected a statement on reports that the NYT intentionally gaves negative coverage to Biden to punish him for not doing an interview to deny that accusation, but the statement does not deny it and attacks Biden some more, so I think we can take that as confirmation.

Worth noting that the Biden WH has already said a clear no to wingnut Speaker's request to send in the National Guards. Every Democratic Governor, Mayor should follow the same approach. politico.com/news/2024/04/2…

Been thinking about this more and I think what it comes down to is that this is just not in my experience how voters make decisions. They do not put all the issues in weighted order, compare the two candidates, and decide based on the lower RMS value. An example.

Police have been radicalized into a fascist force. This right-wing drumbeat against protests is part of a campaign to silence anti-fascist Americans.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
One CM says let's call the national guard to patrol Seattle's streets. Another CM says let's pass new loitering laws while throwing police accountability to the winds. Meanwhile police are brutalizing college students all over the country. Tonight is feeling a little dystopian.
The universal police brutality against peaceful protesters--not just restricted to students, but now also faculty--should be a five-alarm fire.
Also, not at all what this law would ultimately be used for, but if we buy her premise it's still a pretty shit plan
You know someone once applied for a grant for the @SeattlePF to pay for apartments for teenagers who no longer wanted to perform sex work. That would be an actual solution rather than just traumatizing young people by arresting them
Why not send services out there? Why can City Council think of nothing other than cops?
So we're going to ... arrest the child victims of sex trafficking?
She says she plans to introduce legislation to reinstate the loitering law, and says the sex workers on Aurora are "mostly minors" who have been "prostituted since they were children."
Broke: Being chatty with the barista when there is a line. Woke: Being chatty with the barista when it’s quiet. Bespoke: Having your own custom SKU programmed into the register, ringing yourself up, and giving a good tip when the barista is busy.
People being chatty with the barista when there’s 10 people in line behind you, try some situational awareness
in a remotely ethical country oncology nurses and hospice staff would be paid the way we pay cops now
We broke ground on a true high-speed rail line on Monday! Once completed, passengers will be able to travel between Las Vegas and Southern California in just over 2 hours. Here's to seeing that through, and more where that came from.
If Beyoncé is choosing to ride high speed rail trains why isn’t this government?!
This is a textbook case for recusal.
Council President Sara Nelson interrupts speaker @colinokeefe as he calls on he to recuse herself from Pay Up discussions because Seattle Hospitality Group, which presumably would benefit from minimum wage rollback, just bought into Fremont Brewing, her business.
Why does this Conservative Council want to kill Seattle?
Council Member Maritza Rivera blames union wages and e-books for Seattle Public Library closures. thestranger.com/news/2024/04/2…
@cruickshank Utterly demented. In between the brutality we've seen deployed against college kids peaceably assembling and the memories from 2020, she'd be inviting a fucking insurgency to break out on our streets. Truly the smoothest of this crop of SCC smoothbrains.
This is CM Cathy Moore. Later in the thread PubliCola reports she also says she plans to vote in favor of the new SPOG contract that gives police huge raises and doesn't get hardly any accountability improvements in return.
She says she plans to introduce legislation to reinstate the loitering law, and says the sex workers on Aurora are "mostly minors" who have been "prostituted since they were children."
This is alarming.
Sara Nelson agrees that we should call out the National Guard to address crime in Seattle.
the seattle have some sane politicians challenge (impossible difficulty)
Sara Nelson agrees that we should call out the National Guard to address crime in Seattle.
@cruickshank Cathy Moore called the police on a handful of protestors. I’m sure she’d agree, too.
