There's a scandal in Seattle. Our local election ethics commission is intentionally punishing our new Mayor for trumped up charges and refuse to go after blatant corruption by our old Mayor.

it’s really funny that Jeff Bezos is destroying the Washington Post. The fourth richest person in the entire world dismantles one of the world’s foremost newspapers—and the United States just lets it happen. That’s so funny. Nothing important matters. Nothing even exists
