Judge okays recall petition against Seattle Marxist

Seattle councilwoman Kshama Sawant [not to be confused with savant--she's just stupid with no special skills] may be in big trouble. A presiding King County Superior Court judge ruled that accusations against her were verifiable and serious enough to justify a recall petition.

Judge James Rogers, is a fourth generation Seattle-ite [?] and served in the King County Prosecutor's Office from 1994 to 2004. Six of those years was with the Special Assault Unit and three were with the Most Dangerous Offenders Project Unit [aka homicide unit], so don't think you can get over on this guy. 

Rogers ruled that four of the six charges against Sawant justified the continued recall effort, according to the Seattle Times.

The charges against Sawant in the petition are, according to MyNorthwest:

That Sawant misused council resources to promote a ballot initiative in early February
That she violated City hiring rules by giving decision-making authority to Socialist Alternative.
That she revealed the address of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s home to protesters who later marched to her home
That she endangered City employees by admitting hundreds of protesters into City Hall after hours
That she “created a criminal environment” in the East Precinct area of Capitol Hill that ultimately led to the creation of the CHOP

“Rogers dismissed the charges related to the East Precinct and the CHOP, but allowed the others to move forward,” The Seattle Times wrote.

Vis-à-vis the ballot initiative, Rogers wrote that there is “actual knowledge of facts indicating that the Councilmember intended to commit an unlawful act …”

Rogers wrote that as far as giving decision-making authority to Socialist Alternative, “the councilmember had to persuade the Seattle Executive Committee of the Socialist Alternative to discharge an employee, effectively delegating a City staffing decision to an outside body, of which she was a member.”

Regarding the charge of admitting hundreds of protesters into City Hall,  the judge stated: “her alleged act of unlocking the building closed due to the pandemic and letting in the protesters inferentially proves the intent needed to allow the charge/allegation to go forward.”

On July 2, My Northwest reported that Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan issued a letter to Gonzalez urging her to investigate allegations against Sawant; Gonzalez refused, writing, “The public airing of issues amongst and between independently elected officials will not advance solutions on the deepening needs of our constituents. I remain focused on finding solutions and would welcome a letter from Mayor Durkan detailing her vision on how we can work together on enacting concrete solutions that meaningfully address these crises.”

What an incredibly screwed up town.

On August 18, a petition was launched to recall Sawant from her position on City Council. On Tuesday, the Seattle City Council voted to pay for Sawant’s legal defense, 7-1, with Councilmember Debora Juarez the only member to vote against the idea and thus being the only councilmember with a functioning cortex.

Attorney John McKay represents the recall petitioner and said that Sawant needs to be held accountable, asserting, “I realize that we’ve seen this happen at the highest levels of our government,” but “I hope that we are not living in a time in which our elected officials are not held accountable for violations of the law.”

Yeah, who the hell do these politicians think they are? Antifa thugs?

Seattle mayor may face federal charges over "CHOP" humiliating failure

The face you make when you step in something
on the streets of Seattle

Jenny Durkan, the Democratic Mayor of Seattle, has a lot in common with her fellow Democratic mayors of major American cities.

Durkan is a Democrat and like her party's colleagues, is as useless as a toothpick for a jellyfish. She stands mirrorsf her fellow useless Democratic mayors and governors, Bill de Blasio, Andrew Cuomo, Gavin Newsom, Eric Garcetti and Lori Lightfoot, in the way they handled the "mostly peaceful" Antifa and BLM riots. 

Like them, she neutered her police force, having them stand down as these Marxist anarchists looted, destroyed property, and assaulted innocent people. But like others in her Party, when the rioting affected her directly, she called for the cops to protect her.

Now the Department of Justice is considering whether charges can be brought against her over her apparent refusal to dismantle the so-called "autonomous zone" known as "CHOP" and "CHAZ" in Seattle that was controlled for weeks by anarchists who obviously wish to destroy the USA.

Attorney General Bill Barr is having the DOJ's civil rights division investigate whether charges can be brought against her, The New York Times reported on Wednesday evening. citing two people familiar with the discussions. AG Barr is also looking into possibly charging the rioters with sedition and insurrection against the United States government The Wall Street Journal reports.

The riots began after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25. In Seattle, Marxists took over a number of city blocks in the heart of the city and set up a police-free zone. People who live in the area known as CHOP were harassed and scared, but police were told to back off and allow the illegal takeover to play out. 

And play out it did. After several deadly shootings, Durkan finally ordered police to move in and reestablish order; too late for the victims, of course. There had been three shootings with one person killed, one in critical condition and three with injuries.

Local businesses and residents threatened to move from Capitol Hill and never return. 

At the time, Durkan and her city council cretins, along with other city officials defended the protests. They claimed that a dangerous "element" not part of the peaceful protesters had moved into the zone at night and disrupted the zone's "healing" and "education" environment. The idiot mayor actually said she hoped the protests could continue on a more part-time basis.

Why not? She had no business or home in the area to worry about. 

The damage to our major cities have cost insurance companies a record $2 billion to businesses and individuals because of riot-related destruction.

Charging the Marxists with sedition will be hard to do because of First Amendment protection. Prosecutors will have to prove there was a conspiracy against U.S. government agents or officials that posed an imminent threat.

Black leaders in Seattle praise Carmen Best, condemn BLM

Black faith leaders and activists in Seattle criticized Black Lives Matter (BLM) rioters for violence in their city and gave their support for retiring police chief Carmen Best.

Speaking of Best, a local religious leader, Leslie Braxton said at a Thursday press conference, "Being a black woman, she has the perspective of some of the groups that have the most troubled relationships with law enforcement."

Best is Seattle's first black police chief. She announced on August 10th that she would be stepping down after the Democratic city council approved enormous police reform legislation that would cut millions in funding and fire nearly 100 officers from the city's police force. Best called the city council's move "reckless" and provides "no practical plan for community safety."

Police reform activist Andre Taylor, whose brother was shot and killed by Seattle police, criticized protesters marching in the name of BLM.

"I don’t support Black Lives Matter, at least locally what local groups are doing," Taylor said. "There is a disservice being done. If the protest of agitation allows a level of violence—at least they don’t speak out against it—then people that want violence can mingle right in."

Best told the activists that she was "humbled and gratified" by their support, but explained that she was "confident" in her decision to retire after nearly three decades in the department, and plans to allow Seattle to go to hell in a hand basket.

The Democratic Seattle City Council moved quickly to enact police reform legislation this summer following nationwide anti-police protests inspired by anarchists whose goals are more readily reached without police opposition getting in their way.

In addition to cutting millions in police department funding, the bill they passed on Aug. 10 prohibits the police department from removing homeless people from the streets and, according to Mayor Jenny Durkan (D), will cut the city’s "most diverse class of police" officers from the force.

Durkan's claim to fame is referring to the riots that included looting, destruction of property, attacking police, and murder in her town something akin to a "summer of love." 

There are calls for her removal from office.

While anti-police protests have pushed many local governments to defund and reform their police departments, a recent Gallup poll found that over 80 percent of black Americans want to maintain police presence in their neighborhoods, as do most law abiding Americans of all melanin attributes.

Antifa fascists cause sleeplessness in Seattle while cops do nothing

Photo: AP

Antifa anarchists rampaged through Seattle streets while police were nowhere to be found. It must suck being a Seattle cop--your orders are clear: stand down, do nothing, have a donut, eventually they'll run out of things to destroy.

Conservative journalist Andy Ngo posted video on Twitter showing mobs of mentally disturbed individuals smashing things, destroying property, spray painting anything in sight while chanting their brilliant philosophy: "I don't think s**t; I don't know s**t."

“Marauding Antifa black bloc in Seattle smash up property as they march around the city. People watch in disbelief. No police,” Ngo reported.

If this doesn't sicken you, you're not sentient.

Some protesters carried shields emblazoned with the slogan “f**k the police.” Bystanders witnessing the anarchy stood by silently, probably wondering why aren't the cops around.

“Look at all these white people. They are scared as f**k right now,” said a brave racist shooting video of residents eating outdoors at some of the city’s restaurants.

About 20 police vehicles approached the mayhem while the rioters blocked their advance with dumpsters. The cops didn't see that coming.

Meanwhile, Seattle's Mayor [for now] Jenny Durkan has referred to the area on Capitol Hill known as CHAD, CHAZ, or  "the zone" as a "block party."

Efforts are being made to throw her out of office via recall due to her blatant incompetence and disregard for the safety of Seattle residents and destruction of local businesses.

It isn't clear if any arrests were made or if anyone died or lost limbs or if any white children were harmed--the cops did not respond to comment requests by the media.

Carmen Best,  Seattle's first black chief of police, resigned this week after the city council voted to cut 100 officers from the SPD.

Seattle has traditionally been an extremely liberal city run by Democrats. The last Republican mayor was James Braman who served from 1964 to 1969.

Antifa anarchist gives fellow rioter "a light" setting him on fire

Portland's village idiot, Ted Wheeler, lied when he said that federal agents were to blame for the use of tear gas on rioters attempting to destroy federal property and attack federal agents with projectiles and fireworks. The best part was how Wheeler, donned in mask and goggles, sucked in the gas as he stood with fellow anarchists who later told him to "F" off.

In the following Twitter post, you can see the village idiot watching one of the fires and adjusting his mask for the tear gas that came in response:

Ted Wheeler by the fire now with goggles looking like a goofy 😂🤯👀 pic.twitter.com/A7LULrg6sJ
— Simulation Warlord🇺🇸 (@zerosum24)

After Wheeler left the scene of the crimes being committed, he threatened them with tear gas himself, sounding a lot like Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan who called on police only when the rioters went to her house.

Andy Ngo, a brave journalist who had previously been seriously injured by Antifa thugs, reported from Portland:

Antifa really had the fires going last night, they managed to breach one area of the fence and were stoking the fires on either side of the fence.

Anarchists, not quite as smart as fish bait, had difficulty figuring out how to breach the barriers set up by the feds by the courthouse. In the process, however, the did manage to set a fellow cretin on fire. Ngo reported on this:

LA Mayor admits he lied about COVID-19 and protests

Second Runner-Up

Second Runner-Up for "America's Worst Mayor of a Major City," LA Mayor Eric Garcetti (D-naturally) finally came clean admitting Wednesday that a link exists between LA's butt-to-bellybutton Black Lives Matter protests and the spike in the Chinese Communist Wuhan coronavirus cases. Previously, he lied and denied a cause and effect relationship. [By the way, the First Runner -Up for the award goes to Jenny Durkan and the winner, of course, is Bill de Blasio of New York. All Democrats, of course.]

Garcetti said he consulted [i.e., spoke] with Dr. Barbara Ferrer, LA County’s Director of Public Health, and was told there is a connection. Duh.

 Earlier this week, LA County broke 100,000 COVID-19 cases, as reported by  KTTV-TV.

“I talked again with Dr. Ferrer about that this morning. She does think some of the spread did come from our protests,” he admitted, according to Fox News. 

But Garcetti admitted that he supports the Marxist protesters and gave a power salute to Kanye West who may run for POTUS with Cher or Miley Cyrus as his VP, or someone else and stuff.

“It’s not the ac of protesting — that’s a great and American thing to do no matter what your opinion is … but protesting without maintaining physical distancing, without wearing your mask, without having sanitizer — we just have to be smart. Whether you’re at a protest or at your home, whether in your workplace or whether you’re out shopping, these rules don’t change,” Garcetti said. 

First Runner-Up

He also cautioned protesters to be careful with matches when lighting Molotov cocktails, and don't stand under any falling statues of our Founding Fathers and such.

“We do believe there is a connection. We don’t believe that everybody has been doing this safely, and wherever you can, please stay at home,” he said. By "home," Garcetti includes tents, benches, and basements.

On Tuesday, Garcetti had dismissed connections between the protests and the spike in cases because he just didn't want to believe it and felt it couldn't possibly be true.

“We follow the data closely,” the Marxist said at the time.  “There’s no evidence yet that the protests led to much spread, though it’s something that Doctor Ferrer has hypothesized. But we haven’t seen any conclusive evidence there.”

Maybe the absence of symptoms is due to the fact that the incubation period is around two weeks and Garcetti never read "Basic Arithmetic for Dummies." He was too busy reading "The Communist Manifesto for Schmucks."

“People still can obviously and should exercise their First Amendment rights. This is a critical moment not to let up with that,” the mayor said Tuesday, meaning that when the left wants to speak, they have the right. When conservatives wants to speak, the left has the right to stop them.

The Winner

When dealing with the question of whether New York City protests caused an increase in the virus, New York City Comrade Bill de Blasio forbid carriers of the virus to be questioned as to whether they attended a protest rally.

Problem solved. Now remove your head from your nether regions, Mr. Mayor.

The land of CHOP taken down by "COP"

Gunned to the teeth, Seattle police infiltrated the country of CHOP and dismantled it like it never even happened. Except for the human feces and garbage the anarchists left behind because their mothers always cleaned up after them.

The Seattle Police Department officers stormed the lawless Capitol Hill Organized Protest, on Wednesday, an area they crapped up for weeks after the killing of George Floyd on May 25th in Minneapolis. To ensure such anarchy will not happen anytime soon, leftist Democrats have called for the defunding of police departments throughout the nation. That sounds like an idea that comes from people who don't want the cops around for one reason or another.

During Wednesday's dismantling of the crap zone, Seattle Police made over a dozen arrests in connection with the operation.

In a statement, Seattle Police Department said, "Due to ongoing violence and public safety issues in the East Precinct/Cal Anderson Park area, Mayor Jenny Durkan has issued an executive order to vacate the area. Seattle police will be in the area this morning enforcing the Mayor's order."

In other words, Durkans was doxxed by one of her council members and the anarchists showed up at her home, finally telling herself that enough is enough.

The statement added, "Since demonstrations at the East Precinct area began on June 8th, two teenagers have been killed and three people have been seriously wounded in late-night shootings. Police have also documented robberies, assaults, and other violent crimes."

That tends to happen, Jenny, when you tell the cops to stand down and then the rioters refuse to allow the cops and medical people enter the area to save lives.

The department also added, "Officers enforcing today's order are wearing a higher-level of protective gear. Police are utilizing this equipment because individuals associated w/the CHOP are known to be armed and dangerous/may be associated with shootings, homicides, robberies, assaults & other violent crimes."

Journalist Andy Ngo, who was injured by these morons when trying to cover a story several months ago, pointed out that the demonstrators in the zone "didn't put up much resistance this morning."

"CHAZ was retaken by police in a matter of minutes," Ngo added.

Perhaps the cowards knew the cops meant business. After all, you can go messing around with private property if you're Black Lives Matter of Antifa, but don't go messing around the mayor's home--she won't stand for it.

Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said it was high time to shut down the Communist Nation of CHOP.

"The CHOP has become lawless and brutal," Best said in an incredible understatement. "Four shootings – two fatal – robberies, assaults, violence and countless property crimes have occurred in this several block area." All in a matter of days.

One can report on what Mayor Durkan's office has said about BLM and the rioters, but that would be too tedious and she is a leftist buffoon. Anyone in Seattle who would vote for another term for her, deserves to have the full wrath of Antifa and BLM rein down on their businesses and homes.

Seattle mayor finally 'gets her head out'--plans to dismantle CHOP due to the 'violent distraction'

It evidently took a double shooting that left one young black man dead and another wounded, along with other incidents of violence, for Seattle's Democrat Mayor Jenny Durkan to remove her head from the recesses of her nether regions. She is finally realizing that the area formerly known as "CHAZ" [Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone--which is about as autonomous as a week-old infant] and now known as "CHOP" [Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone] is not a good look to get her reelected. She is supposedly going to shut the area down before more anti-Trump voters are killed.

“Faced with growing pressure to crack down on an ‘occupied’ protest zone following two weekend shootings, Seattle’s mayor said Monday that officials will move to wind down the blocks-long span of city streets taken over two weeks ago that President Donald Trump asserted is run by ‘anarchists,'” Q13 FOX Seattle reported.

The leftist mayor spoke at a news conference and said that she views the violence as a distraction away from the peaceful protesters who don't believe that black people have racial equality with white people and that cops routinely beat the crap out of black people but wouldn't beat the crap out of white people, because, um, because.

The actual stats prove otherwise.

"She said the city is working with the community to bring the ‘Capitol Hill Occupied Protest’ zone to an end,” Q13 FOX Seattle reports.

This is what 'mostly peaceful protests' look like

But in early June, the low-functioning mayor told the Communist News Network's  Chris "Fredo" Cuomo that the zone could remain up all summer and called it a "summer of love."

Fredo: How long do you think Seattle in those few blocks looks like this?

Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan (D): I don't know. We could have the summer of love! pic.twitter.com/ApIDfMN9RD
— Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck)

President Donald Trump, never the one to let a good tweeting opportunity go to waste, responded:

Seattle Mayor says, about the anarchists takeover of her city, ‘it is a Summer of Love’. These Liberal Dems don’t have a clue. The terrorists burn and pillage our cities, and they think it is just wonderful, even the death. Must end this Seattle takeover now!

Durkan replied:

Seattle is fine. Don’t be so afraid of democracy. https://t.co/o26PkJnYhA
— Mayor Jenny Durkan (@MayorJenny) June 12, 2020

By "democracy" she is referring to the takeover of public areas, the destruction of property, the tearing down of historic statues, looting and burning of businesses, and the violence. 

So for her, anarchy is democracy.

Seattles "Kumbayah Summer of Love" Residents Reveal the Real Agenda

They changed the name of CHAZ because it stood for Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. The incompetent anarchists who took over the six-block area are anything BUT autonomous as they ask for donations of food, cigarettes, matches, and whatever else they think is coming to them. Now the area has been renamed CHOP or Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone.

Progressive "leaders" such as Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan have declared the riots as “peaceful.” Durkan claims the area has a “block party atmosphere.” She refuses to admit that it's more of a block-throwing atmosphere.

In case you haven't guessed it, the real agenda of these anarchists is a slow, methodical takedown of our way of life because these people believe that America is a terrible place and taking what they want from you is justified.

Some leftists in the media have likened the anarchy to a “street festival," while Durkan, who has proven herself to be a total idiot, recently predicted the occupied zone could very well turn into a “summer of love.” Of course, it isn't very lovable for those whose businesses that are being robbed destroyed or looted and their 911 calls being ignored. Nor is it a summer of love for people who live inside the zone these anarchists have overrun and declared theirs.

Durkan should be removed from office and tried for treason as she gives the anarchists credibility in their overtaking of American soil.

This is not a protest, it is an attempt to take over sovereign American land. It has devolved to where guns are being distributed to vigilante “warlords,” and journalists are being attacked in broad daylight because "Fox."

Anyone who disagrees with the mob are bum-rushed and forced to leave the area. Opposing ideas scare and confuse these communists and there is no First Amendment in the zone.

Seattle police chief Carmen Best told the media that “Our calls for service have more than tripled. These are responses to emergency calls — rapes, robberies, and all sorts of violent acts that have been occurring in the area that we’re not able to get to.”

Things have deteriorated so badly in the area that people who live in the zone, as does Matthew Ploszaj, are saying that they feel like “sitting ducks.”

“We are just sitting ducks all day,” Ploszaj told local KIRO 7. “Now every criminal in the city knows they can come into this area, and they can do anything they want, as long as it isn’t life-threatening. And the police won’t come in to do anything about it.”

He said he called 911 when seeing a burglar break into his building courtyard and steal a bike. He said the police dispatcher told him there is "nothing we can do" unless someone's life is in danger.

Business owners were told that the police "would not" respond to break-ins and confrontations at their businesses. In one case, Russel Kimble's auto shop was broken into and there was a confrontation as police "observed the location from a distance." A safe distance.

People who have left the area and refuse to return don't appear to be returning in the near future thanks to Durkan and other useless and cowardly officials who would rather appear “woke” than do what they have been sworn to uphold.

Anyone who votes for Democratic leadership either for the country or their local representatives deserves what they get. Those who find themselves living under that leadership might consider leaving.

Seattle anarchists take over, demand mayor resign, create their own country

Hundreds of anarchists stormed Seattle's City Hall on Tuesday night. They demand the mayor resign, the police disband, free college, free healthcare, retrials of all incarcerated black people, the mayor resign, and store owners stop locking their doors at night.

Okay, maybe not the last one, but that's likely to be a future demand.

So far, the nearby police precinct boarded up and removed blockades in the streets to allow protesters to march unimpeded to the Capitol Hill area. The anarchists are proclaiming the area to be a new country, while remaining dependent on the U.S. to provide them with utilities because normal people also live in that neighborhood who aren't involved with Antifa and their nonsense and are innocent victims.

Demonstrators remained peaceful thus far, without reports of violence or injuries, but are demanding Mayor Jenny Durkan to step down if she refuses to defund the city's police department.

Although local elections there are officially nonpartisan, most of the city's elected officials are Democrats and they also hold the majorities in both houses of the Washington State Legislature and are as useless as a garden hose in a forest fire.

The protesters continued to camp out in a self-declared "cop free zone," which has been abandoned by the cops after the Seattle Police Department closed the East Precinct on Monday on the orders of the useless mayor and governor.

Since the senseless killing of George Floyd over two weeks ago by Derek Chauvin, a rogue cop in Minneapolis, demonstrators all over the country and in other parts of the world ironically took to the streets with guns and clubs and bricks and bats, to protest police brutality.

Chauvin is the exception to policing, not the rule. He is like an airline disaster that gets all the attention while all the safe flights never do. He is currently awaiting trial for the killing of Floyd as are the three other cops who stood around doing nothing to stop Chauvin from keeping his knee on Floyd's neck.

After nearly two weeks of clashing with protesters who threw bricks, rocks, bottles of frozen water, and other things that weren't nailed down at police, who responded to the violence with pepper spray and tear gas to break up the anarchists, they were then ordered to play nice and be less aggressive. By giving in to the anarchy, the violence would supposedly end.

Since the police cleared out a few nights ago, the area has remained relatively peaceful, despite the ongoing demonstrations and psychotic demands. Now the cops say they will only respond to the area if there is a 911 call for an emergency.

On Friday, useless Mayor Durkan banned the use of tear gas by police, but protesters are also calling for Paw Patrol to get rid of their cop dog, and for Elmer Fudd to get rid of his shotgun and trade it in for Silly String.

Far-left leftist  Councilcommie Kshama Sawant met with protesters inside City Hall on Tuesday night, although it is usually closed at night.

In response to Tuesday night's protests, Durkan's office said in a statement that she remains committed to making "actual steps on policing" [as opposed to make-believe steps], but she's only pulling our proverbial leg.

"As the person who originally investigated the Seattle Police Department for the unconstitutional use of force, Mayor Durkan believes that SPD can lead the nation on continued reforms and accountability, but knows this week has eroded trust at a time when trust is most crucial," the statement said.

Meanwhile, President Trump has said the mayor better get her city straightened out or he will do the straightening.

Starbucks and Amazon go full frontal conservative

Mayor Jenny Durkan

Socialist, Seattle-- So how's that social justice thingy working out for you, Starbucks and Amazon? Not so good, eh?

You guys pretend to be staunch believers in social justice but when it comes down to actually participating in the deal, well, not so much. 

You Starbucks, you flaunt your leftist agenda to the point where you make your entire company staff take a full day to provide them with racial sensitivity training because one store in the entire freaking nation followed procedure properly and asked two black men to leave because they weren't buying anything. They were just hanging out and using the restroom, which was against company policy. But they complained, went public and you caved like a Hamas cave along the Gaza border after being discovered by Israel.

But the far left city of Seattle's socialist policies have done the same thing to them that socialism has done to Venezuela, and now the city wants you guys to fork over some of your money, pay your "fair share" and you don't like that idea. It's really, really funny, never mind how ironic it is.

Yes, Seattle decided to raise taxes on their corporate residents in order to support their socialist programs of affordable housing and "homeless services."

Starbucks VP Drew Herdener lambasted the city for failing to practice fiscal restraint, and are punishing businesses for what is ultimately the city's failure.

No, it's socialism's failure and, like a good leftist company, you should be proud and happy to be able to contribute for "the cause" (aka, socialist programs).

"The city does not have a revenue problem--it has a spending efficiency problem," Herdener whined. "We are highly uncertain whether the city council's anti-business positions or its spending inefficiency will change for the better."

Welcome to the left-hand side of the aisle, Drew.

Amazon went in front of the city council complaining that Seattle was trying to push its responsibility for their homelessness problem onto corporations. Council member Lorena Gonzalez, in a moment of self-righteous indignation and false virtue signaling, tongue-lashed Amazon for their lack of compassion. 

Neither Amazon nor Starbucks said that they wanted Seattle to deal with their self-inflicted homeless problem on its own, but said they were trying to explain to the local government officials that the proposed "head tax," which charges all Seattle-based corporations a $275 surcharge per employee per year, would ever lower the cost of Seattle housing to an "affordable" level for those living on the street. Also, the tax doesn't do anything to solve Seattle's transient problem as it was caused by the same socialistic policies that caused the problem in the first place (see Venezuela for more details).

In fact, in 2009, Seattle had to repeal a similar "head tax" when businesses went elsewhere to make their fortunes and Seattle got its collective head out of its collective nether regions. The city spent more on fighting a gun tax lawsuit than it collected in taxes.

Starbucks' CEO John Kelly, said in a statement to the media that the city can't even manage to care for the homeless it currently has. "If they cannot provide a warm meal and safe bed to a 5-year-old child, no one believes they will be able to make housing affordable or address opiate addiction," he warned. 

The city had wanted to steal $500 per person for the "head tax." They've been planning this for about a year and on Monday night passed this taxation without representation bill and settled on $275 per person. 

The mayor, Jenny Durkan, is a progressive Democrat [did you have any doubts?] and a big fan of taxing. She had previously announced that she will used the "revenue" (aka taxes) from Seattle's guns and ammo tax to fund research into the health issues around guns.

Guns don't have health issues. 

Anyway, the "head tax" will supposedly raise $48 million per year, but only if large corporations agree to be part of this socialistic strategy that has a long history of failure, or if they refuse to add to the cost of doing business when they can easily go elsewhere.

Perhaps Seattle, like California, will attempt to celebrate the birthday of Karl Marx, but hopefully, large corporations will see through the fog of progressive policies.
