Historians argue that Trump indicting his enemies one-by-one rather than having them murdered in a single night proves he’s not a fascist.

I just learned that YES, the mayor of Seattle is a Black and Japanese man (and his mother was sent to a Japanese internment camp). So you know exactly what is coming.

Bruce Allen Harrell is the mayor of Seattle. He has an African American father and a Japanese American mother who was INTERNED in a camp with other Japanese Americans. Anyone want to guess why Seattle might be coming up on that National Guard occupation list?

I grew up in the rural Midwest and now live in Seattle and visit Portland regularly. You know what looks more "war ravaged"?

The rural Midwest.

A saw mill sat abandoned near my parents house for 20 years. Until it caught on fire. The abandoned buildings, closed businesses, etc. everywhere.

“It’s not war ravaged. It was war ravaged. And the damage that’s been done to Portland is really, really, really sad. …"

Portland is ‘not a war zone’ but bears scars of 2020, Oregon’s only GOP member of Congress says

“It certainly is war ravaged,” the eastern Oregon representative said, noting he wants Portland police to “step up and do their job.”

In Seattle unlike in Florida where I live they can have nice things because their governor isn’t afraid of paint on the sidewalks.
Stay classy Seattle. Thanks for a great trip. Even if some of your hills almost killed me 😀😀

Look at #Bondi & #PuppyKiller's faces!!! They are pissed. They look like Cinderella's step-sisters because #FatFuck is looking at a younger twat.

Didn't that #twat have a black eye yesterday?

Pierce county sheriff Keith Swank made this derogatory post in an official position trying to monetarily harm Seattle.

So I made a FOIA request...

Tweet text: Especially because they are sanctuary cities, Seattle and Tacoma are too dangerous to host FIFA. The athletes and spectators need to be safe and secure, and these two cities cannot guarantee their safety. The games should be moved.

Foia request sent to: SHRpublicrecords@co.pierce.wa.us

Dear Sheriff's office,

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act.

I request that a copy documents containing the following information that be provided to me: Discussing if Sheriff Swank is actually not a man, but instead a giant walking Vagina or irrefutable proof that the sheriff is not in fact a giant walking vagina.

As a city of Seattle resident that is being negatively affected by the recent inaccurate whining of the Sheriff in an official position, this request is being made by an individual seeking information for personal use and not for a commercial use. I believe the sheriff is using his official position as Sheriff to try and cause monetary harm to my community and I am looking to learn more about him to place his comment in the correct context.

I am willing to pay fees for this request up to a maximum of $10.

If you estimate that the fees will exceed this limit, please inform me first.

In order to help to determine my ability to assess additional fees, I would request a meta description of the included documents so I could asses how pertinent they are to my request as I understand they may include thousands of informal documents and sketches from deputies and other employees of the Sheriff's office. Those may include drawing and/or scribblings using popular slang I have heard myself to describe Sheriff Swank. Such as Sheriff Swank is a big giant pussy etc. Please include all.

Thank you for your consideration of this request.
Sincerely,

Chet Faliszek

Alright, Seattle, what are we going to do when they come for us? Portland has set the bar high and we can't let them do it better. We have the Seattle freeze, and orcas and Jimi Hendrix and flying salmon, surely we can come up with good ideas.

This is what we can expect from a peaceful, Hamas-free, terror-free Palestine. Science. Innovation. Creativity. Brilliance. Let Palestinians and Israelis fight and compete in the arena of human knowledge and advancement.

#FatFuck is sending to troops to kill off remaining #Palestinians.

He can't start building on their property while they are still breathing.

So, just let me get this straight. Hamas has not agreed to disarm, and since Netanyahu will no longer have any hostage pressure, he will be free to resume bombing the shit out of things at his earliest convenience? Just giving Trump a few weeks to cosplay as a humanitarian.

The reason why there hasn't been peace in Gaza is because if there were peace. Israel would not have to concentrate on war and could pursue removing Netanyahu. Maybe even handing him over to the Hague to address his war crimes. War with Hamas only exists because Netanyahu says it does.

Everybody talks about the 40 some hostages held by Hamas, but what I'm not hearing is what about the over 3500 Palestinians that are being held hostage and tortured by Israel? That number by the way was 1300 BEFORE October 7th.

#FatFuck used her big ugly mouth to get elected then he told her to get lost. #3Toes is pissed. He's trying to get her to shut up but it's being done behind the scenes because he thinks he can shut her up. If she shuts up, it'll be because she got something.

Miriam @gr82bus.bsky.social · 4h

#3Toes is trying to get #FatFuck to make her an offer to stop. She thought she would get a cabinet post for campaigning with him. This is what she looks like when she's re-negotiating. She's not on anyone's side but her own.

#ButtPlug is pissed. She sucked a lot of dick for #FatFuck & thought she was going to get a cabinet post, but he blew her off. Now she's hearing from her voters who know she voted for their healthcare bills to double so she's trying to prove to him that he should offer her something.
