I think Wonkette needs to commit an investigative journalism and tell us “Whar all these rich folks who’re running away from home because Little People insist on leaders who try to make their lives better gonna LIVE?” Y’know, so we can all avoid that place.
Maybe locally "housing first" is the way to go. But Nationally, "health first" would be the simplest and most effective way to take care of much of the housing issue. Of course, people would still need to be paid a decent wage, and housing prices would need to stabilize.
It seems like the majority of people say they support progressive policies. But once you say that those polices are a priority of Progressive Democrats, they suddenly call it socialism and communist. Some are so brainwashed that they believe anything that is a progressive policy is commanded by satin and it will lead to Liberals kidnapping babies to drink their blood.
As someone who once lived and still spends a lot of time in Seattle, visiting my daughter and my college friends from UW, I'd be happy with either one. It should be noted that when Harrell was elected, the crime rate in Seattle was at an all-time high. My friends complained that unless there was a firearm involved, the police wouldn't even show up if you reported property crimes and sometimes even assault, unless someone had significant injuries. Many other municipal problems weren't being addresses by city government, prior to Harrell. Admittedly, a lot had to do with the City Council. Harrell made real progress on many of these issues but, as noted, he's up against a lot of anger in people who want to see a progressive fighter, not a technocrat.
The housing for the city's huge homeless population has been a subject of much controversy and red tape, long before Harrell was elected. Danny Westneat, a progressive columnist for the conservative Seattle Times, has documented the fiasco involving tiny houses for the homeless, among other civic problems. (He recently wrote an excellent column on the ICE dragnet in Washington.)
When I lived in Seattle, I worked on several Sound Transit projects, including the Link light rail and the Sounder intra-city train, so I would be happy for Wilson to use her expertise and energy to improve public transit. The bus system is already quite good, compared to other cities, so she could start by adding fare gates to the light rail system and increasing security.
Ta, Dok. I knew there had to be a distaff Mamdani somewhere; figures she's in Seattle. I've told everyone higher up in my network (which has some shelters and supportive housing) to let the top bosses know what our clients need most is MICA housing (mentally ill chemically addicted), but at this point I really don't care whether they do it or not because I'm retiring in June.
That asshole Mandani was part of uncommitted and should never have been on the ballot. He worked to elect Trump with that bullshit. He has no plans to build more housing, he just plans to freeze his own rent.
Hey, Tina. What is the evidence for your assertions (worked to elect Trump, no plans to build housing, and plans to freeze his own rent but no one else's, if that's what you meant)?
Your ignorance is as dangerous and pathetic as your purity.
"That’s because the rent freeze proposed by Zohran Mamdani — who scored a massive upset in the city’s Democratic primary, with affordability the centerpiece of his campaign — would apply to the city’s rent-regulated housing stock, "
Your letmegooglethat.com link doesn't work right, again your overwhelming desire to be a dick to your allies has led you to be incompetent.
When I duckduckgo it myself (because fuck google) I get lots of stuff about Mamdani not liking Israel's genocidal activities. very occasionally there's something about Mamdani criticising Harris for her support of Israel's genocidal actions, which is a fair critique.
You are aware that people are allowed to be critical of their leaders, right? Only fascists would say you're not allowed to criticise The Glorious Leader, are you a fascist?
Try googling in an incognito window because it seems your history is so polluted by bullshit you can not even find anything outside your toxic fascist-licking bubble when you search.
He is a proud DSA member and a leader of uncommitted.
The DSA did not support Harris. They could not even support Harris against Trump.
I support Dems, not leftists, because like in 1938 the left works to ensure the fascists take power.
Well your understanding is completely uninformed by a search of his twitter and the actual DSA statements. He continued to support third party voting until election day, in November, as did DSA. Check the official DSA statement. They are as #BothSides as the most odious pundit.
Every American who said "All Eyes on Gaza" when all eyes should have been on stopping fascism in America is a failure as citizen and a human. Now we have murdered 14,000,000 children because in a foreign war which neither Harris nor Biden had fuck all to with tens of thousands died. Congrats on that. As a bonus we elected Bibi's best bud who just ended medical visas for children from Gaza, congrats on what you won.
You can not even imaging the scale of death you supported. These deaths are a clear and definite part of both Project 2025 and the DSA platform -- ending USAID. Maybe you should read more about the things you seem to think are fabulous.
There is no moral system except the most purely racist where it is good to murder 14,000,000 people in Africa because of a war with tens of thousands of dead on another continent.
As for him -- every fucking time the Dems embrace some traitorous asshole they turn out to be a traitorous asshole.
I think people who worked for to elect Trump or W should never be allowed in the Democratic party. This includes the precious progressive Senator Sparkle Pony - how did she work out? Bernie brought us Candace Owens and Tulsi Gabbard, along with this Supreme Court.
Fuck your purity bullshit. I want to win because I think other people's lives matter.
It's ironic that you're calling others out for purity policing when you're trying to take down a Dem winner for not being exactly as purely perfect as you want him to be.
Leftist are shit allies and drag the entire party down.
I never understood the Communists helping Hitler take power, and then in 2024 I saw the left ensure fascism took America. Fuck you and fuck him for being enablers of that.
Here is there statement about defeating fascism in America on the eve of the election:
#BothSides!!!!
"Many of our members are committed to defeating Trump and will vote tactically to that end. Others are committed to rejecting the human horrors and hollow principles Harris represents, so they will vote for a third-party candidate or leave their ballot blank. What’s most important is the organizing we do after Election Day and our ability to fight the capitalist class by strengthening our unions, mobilizing millions of people to fight injustice, and electing socialists to all levels of government."
"Wilson is also pushing for a smarter progressive approach to homelessness that acknowledges the problem’s complexity"
I'm not sure what the problem is here. San Francisco solved it in 2023 by relocating the unsheltered out of view of the Chinese delegation meeting with former President Biden:
> “San Francisco has cleaned up their streets ahead of President Biden and President Xi’s meeting,” the reporter said. “They’ve moved homeless to other parts of the city, cleared tent cities and trash off the street. Is the president embarrassed that an American city needs to go through a total makeover to be presentable for his out-of-town guests?” https://sfstandard.com/2023/11/14/city-clears-homeless-encampments-apec/
Or maybe the Fulvous Fuckwad's solution in DC:
> "President Donald Trump [sic] announced the latest slate of Kennedy Center honorees, workers began to sweep away homeless encampments along his route to the White House as part of his broader crackdown in the capital city.
> "agents he identified as being with the federal government treated him like an eyesore. They asked him to move from his resting place along the route where Trump [sic] would be driven to the Kennedy Center.
* Where does the Pyrite Pustule suggest the homeless go? It will be up to his flunkies to flesh out a solution. (I guess that when it comes to the Halloween Orange Hemorrhoid out of sight is out of mind.)
* The crackdown is a test run to see what kind of pushback the Sociopathic Marigold Swamp Monster can expect when he pulls this shit in other (blue) cities.
* OK, levy a fine on the homeless who have nowhere else to go. IDK, but if they could pay the fine(s) would they still be living on the streets?
* Leave it to the current regime to make homelessness a crime worthy of jailtime, or a crime at all. To some, IMO, being in jail would be a welcome step up even if only temporary. At least there they can count on three hots and a cot. (I'm not trying to be flippant or make light of the situation, I truly believe that there are those that would welcome the consistency of three meals and shelter over the unknowns they would otherwise encounter. Some, but far from all.)
* For those that have, the unwashed on the street ***are*** an eyesore. My bet is that these fine folk do everything they can to ignore the situation and the unsheltered while assuaging the tiny bit of guilt they might feel by donating $100 to the Salvation Army or giving the stuff they no longer want to Goodwill or whoever; YMMV.
Seattle had a leadership crisis in its homeless programs. Upon examination it was discovered there were 250 tiny houses built and ready for... oops. No place to put them. County and city each pointed at the other. Still no idea if they got sited.
By all rights, any city of significant size - certainly such as Seattle - should be able to find a business that's no longer being used, pave the ground, and install the houses there.
I’m still angry with the approx 90million registered voters who sat this last election out. I don’t know if, in their apathy, they even comprehend how stupid and ill considered that was.
They’re the ones that need to understand that, All Elections Are Local.
I thought Democrats were really trying to specify that Mamdani was uniquely talented and equipped to lead NYC? First upset race in the country since him, and “It’s another Mamdani!”
Mamdani is a socialist, possibly a communist. He’s an anti-Semite. He won’t denounce Palestinian chants to drive Israel into the sea. He was in favor of defunding the police. He’s in favor of nationalizing grocery stores. Wtf? He can’t win his own state let alone any of the other 49.
Drive into the sea? First of all, you can't drive a country into the sea, you can only drive people into the sea. So you're conflating nation with people, a common tactic of fascists. Also, you're hard of hearing, the chant is "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free". So if your hearing is fine, that must mean you're opposed to freedom.
He is Muslim and the Semite tribes spread all over the world, including several Muslim countries. Some but not all Jews are Semitic, and the same is true for Muslims. In similar ratios even, if I am not mistaken. So that's not actually a valid statement when said about Mamdani. Especially since Palestinians are most definitely more Semitic than the many Jewish people who moved to Israel. Anyway, semantics aside, you obviously mean Jew-hater. Not liking Israel is not the same as hating the people who live there, and it is definitely not the same as disliking Jews. I dislike the USA, but so far everyone I've met from there is perfectly nice (With one exception). The distinction between nation and people is important.
You might want to find out what defunding the police means to most people. Most people mean that the police should focus on police tasks and the funds for social worker tasks should go to social workers. This does mean less funds for the police, but it also means an easier job and a better match between training and tasks for the police.
I'm not even going to bother to answer your socialist and communist comments until you define your terms very precisely. Too many people use those words but they don't know what they mean. They're just emotional baggage from the cold war.
Gosh, where to begin? So if he's against genocide he's an anti-Semite? Gee, where have I been hearing that diatribe before? Socialism and communism are very different things. You're sounding like a low-info right-winger. Mamdani isn't even a socialist. Do you hear him advocating for government to take over all private businesses? And "nationalizing grocery stores"? Hyperbole much? He's talking about a few government, i.e., not-for-profit, markets located in areas of food deserts. JFC. Dial it down a bit.
As someone that voted for Kamala in the primaries and in the general I have the unfortunate task of informing you that she lost because of misogynoir, not because of Bernie or any other progressive. That and Joe didn't let her run a full campaign due to his misguided notion that Americans appreciate good governance over appearances.
Would you rather have a sex pest corporate collaborator like Cuomo instead? Not only that but the Dem voters made Mamdani their choice, so I guess that is an answer that shows what happens in a democracy.
I do not live in NY. I live in the US. Where Trump is President, which is an outcome he supported.
Every time the Dems embrace some traitorous fucking asshole - like Senator Hot Topic or Candace Owens - we find out that they are a traitorous fucking asshole.
So maybe we should not support traitorous fucking assholes who failed to oppose Trump *or* W.
Critiquing Harris is not the same supporting Trump's presidency, you absolute fuckstick. You act as if none of your friends of family have ever critiqued you, and that's just sad. Criticism is good, actually! It helps us grow and improve!
Not everyone is going to fit your exacting qualifications so perhaps you need to remember that "Perfect is the enemy of good" and leave it at that.
I'm not sure that any Dems "endorsed" Candace Owens, she's always been a conservative commentator and not a political candidate. Senator Hot Topic was better than whatever GQP scum would have had her seat, again remember that things could be worse.
I have said before that putity ponies will be the death of us all. No, people who aren't quite as far left as the above commentor are NOT closet tRump supporters...
The Money with Katie podcast (I know we don't like podcasts here except when we do) had a great ep about dealing with complex governmental problems, including housing and transporation, this week.

Yeah but can she prove that she's a lady?
I mean get dozens of people to attest that she's never burped, farted, or giggled without covering her mouth?
Her platform is closer to Harris' than Mandani.
- build housing
- increase transit accessibility, expanding routes
- YIMBY
- installing solar on city buildings
That asshole Mandani was part of uncommitted and should never have been on the ballot. He worked to elect Trump with that bullshit. He has no plans to build more housing, he just plans to freeze his own rent.
"Mamdani". At least get his name straight.
Hey, Tina. What is the evidence for your assertions (worked to elect Trump, no plans to build housing, and plans to freeze his own rent but no one else's, if that's what you meant)?
Your ignorance is as dangerous and pathetic as your purity.
"That’s because the rent freeze proposed by Zohran Mamdani — who scored a massive upset in the city’s Democratic primary, with affordability the centerpiece of his campaign — would apply to the city’s rent-regulated housing stock, "
He lives in a rent-controlled apartment.
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/29/mamdanis-rent-freeze-promise-could-run-into-stark-financial-reality-00480794
Mamdani on how important it was to pressure Biden and oppose Harris, let me fucking Google that for you.
https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=Mamdani+on+uncommitted
And now I ask you, what are his plans to build more housing, which you appear to believe he has?
Fuck you, him, and everyone else who failed to oppose Trump.
Your letmegooglethat.com link doesn't work right, again your overwhelming desire to be a dick to your allies has led you to be incompetent.
When I duckduckgo it myself (because fuck google) I get lots of stuff about Mamdani not liking Israel's genocidal activities. very occasionally there's something about Mamdani criticising Harris for her support of Israel's genocidal actions, which is a fair critique.
You are aware that people are allowed to be critical of their leaders, right? Only fascists would say you're not allowed to criticise The Glorious Leader, are you a fascist?
Oh you found nothing about him building housing, because he has no plan. Just wants his own rent fixed.
Try googling in an incognito window because it seems your history is so polluted by bullshit you can not even find anything outside your toxic fascist-licking bubble when you search.
He is a proud DSA member and a leader of uncommitted.
The DSA did not support Harris. They could not even support Harris against Trump.
I support Dems, not leftists, because like in 1938 the left works to ensure the fascists take power.
From what I understand the uncommited voted against Harris in the internal Dem election, not in the actual election.
Well your understanding is completely uninformed by a search of his twitter and the actual DSA statements. He continued to support third party voting until election day, in November, as did DSA. Check the official DSA statement. They are as #BothSides as the most odious pundit.

His last name is spelled Mamdani.
Yeah I only heard of him a few weeks ago. He is DSA and a leader of uncommitted.
Unlike shit for brains leftist, I do not make my entire personality about a guy I learned about three weeks ago.
I guess you believe everyone should earn votes right?
You fuckers helped elect Trump. The left owns this.
Communists!!
Is she getting as much pushback from Dems as Mamdani?
I think she is great. I love her policies which are also *HARRIS* policies and very much *DEM* policies.
So to respond to her by shitting on Dems is the opposite of resisting fascism. It is rolling in surrender and bullshit.
Your white guy Trump love is showing.
No because she did not campaign against Harris, fuck him very much for that.
From Tina Mouse, apparently.
She seems awesome, that is why.
As for him -- every fucking time the Dems embrace some traitorous asshole they turn out to be a traitorous asshole.
I think people who worked for to elect Trump or W should never be allowed in the Democratic party. This includes the precious progressive Senator Sparkle Pony - how did she work out? Bernie brought us Candace Owens and Tulsi Gabbard, along with this Supreme Court.

Why not Walmart parking lots.
After all, the wages they pay are putting people on the streets, maybe it's time for payback.
County and city both were like “Not our jerb.” You;d think they could find space, but no.
That would be an innovative and good use of imminent domain .
Eminent and imminent
It’s getting more people involved in local elections, and that’s pretty fucking great. More of this around the country, please!
Yes! We need to start a movement:
ALL ELECTIONS ARE LOCAL!
If the Giant Orange Pedophile has done nothing else, he has finally and irrefutably proved this fact.
I vote every single time I can.
I’m sure I already knew that, same here.
I’m still angry with the approx 90million registered voters who sat this last election out. I don’t know if, in their apathy, they even comprehend how stupid and ill considered that was.
They’re the ones that need to understand that, All Elections Are Local.
Me too. I'm 70 and have never missed an election. No matter how small.
Yes. Thank you.

I have said before that putity ponies will be the death of us all. No, people who aren't quite as far left as the above commentor are NOT closet tRump supporters...
You meant "purity ponies" didn't you. At first I though you were referring to Pootin. Also, I agree.
Oh look, another capitalist whore.
Like Harris, right?
And look what we all won.
I hope you are enjoying the 14,000,000 dead kids from canceling USAID. It must keep you warm at night.
Maybe I am whore but you are a soulless ghoul.
Oooooo… scary. 🙄
Repellent and morally shameful, failed his basic job as a citizen - which was to stop Trump.
It sounds like you also failed.
You didn't stop Trump either, you haven't even fired a single shot. You're even worse.
He actively campaigned against Harris.
I donated, wrote postcards, gave money, and advocated for her.
I only support Dems who did the same.
