NEW: Washington State Rep. Shaun Scott issues statement concerning Roger Wright and Seattle police accountability following a Real Change investigation:
Justice for Roger Wright and the Ongoing Fight for Police Accountability I was dismayed to read the revealing article in Real Change News about Seattleite Roger Wright’s 21-year-long search for accountability. Roger was the victim of severe police brutality in 2004 in South Seattle where he was racially profiled, tasered, knocked unconscious for hours, and abandoned on a freeway onramp. He has been dealing with the fallout and trauma from this near-death experience ever since. None of Seattle’s police accountability agencies have made much progress on actual justice for Roger, and many Seattle-area politicians have been less than responsive to him. For the last several months, I’ve talked with Roger about what I can do to ensure that this community does right by him and have considered mechanisms for accountability with the officers involved who are still currently on the police force. Roger’s human rights were violated, and he and his family have spent the past 2 decades pursuing every formal avenue to seek justice and truth for Roger and the Wright family. He has faced not only the trauma of the original injustice but also in validating his experience in the years since. I know that the 43rd Legislative District stands with Roger Wright. Historically, we’ve been a stronghold of civil rights – during the protests for racial justice in the summer of 2020, we showed the world what it looks like to do the most in pursuit of a world without police prejudice. I know that our community doesn’t tolerate what happened to him, because I’ve seen our community’s values up close. I am grateful that Roger has attended a couple of our town halls and that he has shared his story and perspective directly with my office over the past several months. His courage underscores why the Legislature has worked to strengthen police accountability and transparency in recent years — including passing landmark laws such as HB 1054, which bans dangerous police tactics like chokeholds and no… I am grateful that Roger has attended a couple of our town halls and that he has shared his story and perspective directly with my office over the past several months. His courage underscores why the Legislature has worked to strengthen police accountability and transparency in recent years — including passing landmark laws such as HB 1054, which bans dangerous police tactics like chokeholds and no-knock warrants; SB 5051, which improves officer certification and oversight; and SB 5259, which created a statewide database to track use-of-force incidents. We know that these laws are just the beginning. We are already developing additional proposals to expand independent investigations and prosecutions for excessive force to ensure true accountability and prevent future injustices like what Roger endured. If you’d like to join in the fight for police accountability and Roger’s efforts for justice and visibility, here are three things you can do: Be a part of the public accountability process: Read and share Roger Wright’s story, in private and in public, with friends and on social media, to highlight his harrowing experience and his incredible advocacy to fight for justice for himself and his family. Ask elected officials who represent you in state and local government about how they would prevent what happened to Roger from happening to anybody else. Reach out to my office if you have ideas or tips that we can explore to get justice for Roger Wright.

His was to criticize the protestors in Portland and Seattle.

That's a pretty safe and neutral thing to say in Idaho, while revealing yourself to be right leaning or centrist. That's how it plays here.

I've seen this a lot here. I know how to respond.

My public comment concerning proposed Public Records Act model rule changes by the Washington State Attorney General
October 4, 2025 Dear Attorney General Brown, I offer comments concerning CR-102. I am a licensed architect in Washington State and a freelance investigative journalist. My reporting has been published by Mother Jones, The Urbanist, Real Change, Prism, The South Seattle Emerald, and has been cited by the Seattle Times and in federal court filings by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). In the past year I have filed and settled two Washington State Public Records Act (PRA) lawsuits against the city of Seattle concerning requests I made to the Seattle Police Department (SPD). The city of Seattle has since admitted to violating the PRA in fulfilling one of my requests. My reporting is often hindered by officials who destroy records, refuse to answer questions, or delay response to public records requests. Recently, a city of Seattle investigation substantiated that an SPD public records officer was dishonest to me while fulfilling my public records request, closing it prematurely without a proper search after numerous delays. An internal counseling memo I uncovered revealed that the same SPD legal unit employee left 79 SPD public records requests unfulfilled past their assigned due dates. According to the memo, one public records request submitted to the SPD appeared to be silently delayed 25 times without notification to the (unknown) requestor. Forensic audits have also determined that SPD employees have destroyed thousands of records from their city-issued cell phones. Delays in fulfilling public records requests have even been a known liability for the department according to their own internal legal unit communications. The scope of my reporting has revealed information of extraordinary public interest, including the infiltration of FBI/SPD informants within Seattle’s 2020 protests, the willful negligence of Seattle’s police accountability systems and that the SPD was knowingly dishonest in their public statements concerning the use of surveillance t… That is exactly what is happening today within the SPD. The public is being kept in the dark through the SPD’s culture of lawlessness in fulfilling the city’s responsibilities under the PRA. This leaves a void of information that the SPD then aims to exploit with their own propaganda to manipulate public opinion in furtherance of their own objectives. This is something that I have conclusively reported in Real Change, that the SPD used their own former federal consent decree court monitor as a surrogate to advance the department's own interests in the media. Cascade PBS later took down an op-ed from their website after I revealed it was initially secretly drafted by an SPD official. Throughout history, Seattle officials have routinely postured in public statements, touting the value of transparency. In practice, the SPD’s actions show that the department continues to restrict the public’s access to information, through delays, dishonesty, and destruction, revealing an institutional commitment to the anti-democratic suppression of information. The SPD’s effective weaponization of the PRA and institutionalized delays through understaffing, “grouping” requests, the use of personal cellphones to conduct official business, and negligent searches have effectively allowed the city to manipulate Overton Windows, moments of popular support for policy changes that certain department officials do not personally support. This institutionalized process within Seattle city government is antithetical to the intent of the PRA which states that “The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know.” I support the proposed CR-102 rule changes that insert promptness and diligence as best practices in fulfilling public records requests. Sincerely, Glen Stellmacher Investigative Journalist https://www.hardpressed-info.com/

This from the @washingtonpost.com editorial board is remarkably revealing. Seattle mayor scandalously lives practically like a normal middle class person in America. And wants to introduce policies that would help people like her. Shocking!

You guys realize that taxing people to pay for services isn't socialism, right? This is just how governments work.
Who is Wilson? She does not own a car. She lives in a rented 600-square-foot apartment with her husband and two-year-old daughter. By her own account, she depends on checks from her parents back east to cover expenses. To let them off the hook, she seeks to force residents of Seattle to pay for “free” child care and other goodies.

The image shows a dilapidated brick wall with significant structural damage. The wall features an old, broken window with a wooden frame and glass panes that appear dirty and cracked. Below the window, there is a large, rusted metal door with patches of peeling paint. The bricks around the window and door are crumbling, with some sections missing entirely, revealing the mortar and inner layers of the wall. Weeds and small plants are growing out of the gaps and cracks in the brickwork, adding to the sense of decay and abandonment.

The second Cartoonism Collective group zine, 'Plungin' Th' Depths!' is available now, and its  coinciding, online exhibit is 'live' as well ! 👀🦑🌊 cartoonismcollective.org/plunginthedepths #cartoonismcollective #artzine #cartoonart #onlineexhibit #art
A handheld, physical copy of 'Plungin' th' Depths!' The second Cartoonism Collective group zine, featuring work by 11 artists. The zine cover illustration was created by R. Thies, who also assembled and stapled together each copy of this limited edition art zine. The cover includes title text at the top. Underneath, on the left side of the title lettering, is an abstracted, gray and orange-colored shark. The shark is facing the right and its mouth is wide open, revealing its rows of teeth. To the right of the shark is a character who is pointing directly into the shark's mouth with his right hand. In his left hand is a toilet plunger. The shark and character are on the surface of choppy, ocean water. The sky behind the shark and character is bluish-purple with stars scattered about. In the lower left corner of the zine cover is the text, 'Cartoonism Collective Group Zine' and in the lower right corner is the cover artist's signature: R. Thies. Beneath the zine copy that is being held in hand, there are more copies of the zine. Introduction page for 'Plungin' Th' Depths!' zine, written by R. Thies. The introduction touches on the concept behind the zine; how it starts at the ocean surface, and progresses deeper, through the different ocean zones. It also includes the URL to the coinciding online exhibit. The zine celebrates the 50th anniversary of JAWS, but none of the work in the zine directly references the movie. There is a disclaimer at the bottom of the introduction: All artwork and content featured in the zine are each contributor's copyrighted works and maybe not be used without their consent. Below the disclaimer is the publisher information: '1st Printing, 2025. Yarn Heist Publishing, Seattle | ?? : 40. (The zine is a limited edition of 40 copies) Behind the introduction page, on the left and right side is art from the 'Plungin' Th' Depths!' Flyer. Sample page from 'Plungin' th' Depths!' Cartoonism Collective group zine. A Table of Contents reimagined as Depth Guide, and organized by Meters instead of Pages. The zine features work by 11 of the Cartoonism Collective artists, and includes four pages of a short story written by R. Thies, who created the zine layouts and formatted them for print. The text, 'Depth Guide' is at the top of the page, and just below that, is the 'Sunlight Zone' section. It lists the art titles, and sea creatures, with credits to the contributing artist. There are also sections for the Twilight Zone, Midnight Zone, and Abyssal Zone. Although not included in the zine, the Hadal Zone section is included in the coinciding online exhibit. This page is grayscale print on pastel blue paper. Behind the sample page, on the left and right side is art from the 'Plungin' Th' Depths!' Flyer.

The image shows four gulls in flight against a backdrop of a light blue sky dotted with wispy white clouds and the tops of green trees along the bottom edge. The gull in the upper right of the frame is facing the viewer, its wings spread wide and angled slightly downwards, revealing grey upper wings and lighter underwings. Its head is a light grey, and its dark eyes are visible. To the left and slightly lower, three more gulls are in profile, two flying to the left. One flies away from camera. All different shades of grey. The overall scene captures a moment of these birds soaring through the air.

A new drop in Seattle. You know where to find my scent. Some versions to take away to the side of the shrine itself.
A low-angle shot of a water side shrine built into a gray concrete wall. The hot rat summer shrine. The upper half of the image is a vertical mosaic of bright tiles—green, blue, yellow, orange—forming a whimsical tree with a red heart shape and the text “HOT POT HERE.” Below the mosaic, offerings cluster on a shallow ledge: weathered candles in glass jars, a marigold flower, a bright yellow-green painted brick, and a pink block of wood with handwritten words. Resting among these is a white sheet of paper printed with a large black-and-white drawing of intense animal eyes (wolf-like) and a block of poetic text titled LOOK INTO MY EYES ONE LAST TIME. A person’s black-clad arm and torso enter the right edge of the frame. The lighting is cool, giving the entire scene a quiet, reverent feeling. A wider view of the other side of the building revealing that the paper is attached to a large metal door recessed in the building façade. The sheet of text with the wolf-eye image is centered on the upper half of the door, slightly to the right. Below and to the side, remnants of past posters and patches of mismatched gray paint mark the surface. A crumpled piece of brown paper is tied with red string to the door’s handle just beneath the text. Strong midday light throws long shadows of the photographer and nearby structures across the pavement.

After spending two wonderful weeks of holidays with Yumi and Aelita in Charente-Maritime, Eva has to take her plane at Roissy-Charles-de-Gaule to Seattle where she will meet her parents for two weeks in the state of Washington. Being aware that Eva will see her best friends more regularly in September now that Kadic high school is over and she has graduated, Yumi decided to come to the Hermitage to have a good time with her friends, whom she had much less time to spend with since she finished studying at Kadic a year earlier. After Eva was taken in picture where she took sexy poses while showing her panties, Yumi was the second to have the right to this pleasure and she began by revealing her buttocks very well highlighted by this white briefs reinforcing the teasing aspect of the japanese woman who became more and more extroverted since she is major.
