If only we had an amendment to the Constitution that protected speech . . .

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan… * Vehicle traffic: -11% * Foot traffic: +3.4% * Storefront vacancy: -0.9% * Pollution: -22% * Revenue for mass transit: $548M So YES this has been a huge success.

It's pouring rain in Seattle, so it must be Torrent time! Let's go @pwhltorrent.bsky.social!

THIS IS NOT A DRILL TRANSIT RIDERS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE CITY OF SEATTLE

Mayor's race Sound Transit 🤝 🗣️ Please Hold On!

Seattle Progressives, get your ballots in early so that the @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social campaign doesn't have to use resources reminding you to turn in your ballot when you are already a locked in vote for her and know exactly who you are voting for!

Op ed is up in The Urbanist for our mega canvass with the slate of progressive candidates! I hope to see you all there October 19th! www.theurbanist.org/2025/10/14/o...

Confirmed: SDOT will be removing the bus only lane on E Union Street this weekend, ceding this part of the $130 million RapidRide G project back to general purpose traffic in response to requests from nearby property owners.

Harrell strategist was paid for years at City Hall in unusual arrangement

We are beyond disappointed in SDOT's proposals here. Their plan of "exploring future options like dedicated bus lanes once key congestion issues are addressed" is completely nonsensical. You can't just wave a magic wand and get rid of the congestion on Denny. Bus lanes ARE the solution.

Dow Constantine took credit for the Redmond link opening his first week as CEO so I’m blaming him for this

Having a lot of thoughts of all of those allegedly progressive groups who were in such a big hurry to back Harrell because “a challenger can’t win.”

All glory to St. Rat 🙌

Katie Wilson isn’t just an excellent candidate for mayor. She’s also running an excellent campaign. This @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social mailer does a great job laying out solutions on homelessness and contrasting it with Bruce Harrell’s failures.

Last night, at Candidate Survivor, I had the opportunity to break out some very rusty harmonica skills. See, campaigning is fun. Campaigning is fun? Campaigning is fun.

@lex.vaughn.theneedling.com @hannahkrieg.bsky.social Nelson and Saka "couldn't find a phone or computer" to meet quorum for today's meeting on renters commission appointments... 18 months of delay for a short-staffed committee, and neither could get their ass up to attend and vote on this... 👎

Cool FIFA World Cup Seattle idea: Elect Katie.

Harrell has been the single biggest obstacle to light rail construction, wasting time and money granting his corporate donors’ requests to change station placement. Are you actually paying attention to what’s going on in your city? www.kuow.org/stories/wher... publicola.com/2023/03/28/c...

One of the reasons Katie is running for mayor is that she wants housing to be affordable for all of our residents. Housing costs have doubled since Bruce Harrell first took office. Social housing is one important part of that puzzle. Let’s talk about it!

Nothing to see here, just your average experience on Route 8 (thanks @juanjpg.bsky.social for the video!) • Bus takes 16 minutes to go one block • Riders give up halfway and just start walking • 2 other buses manage to catch up in the meantime

The headline here misses a big story here: the completely embarrassing performance by Harrell in this interview. Bullying other candidates. Slamming his fist and shouting. Who is he trying to impress? What a loser.

King County evictions skyrocket as over half of Southeast Seattle is rent-burdened

Yeah, all due respect @jayapal.house.gov, you can do better than endorsing Bruce Harrell. Seems a bit off-brand for you. #Seattle #theburner #bruceharrell #zohran

@wilsonforseattle.bsky.social has my support. She’s been fighting for working-class Seattleites for over a decade and a half, securing wins like the jumpstart tax and an increased minimum wage in Seattle & Tukwila. She’s also been a day 1 advocate of social housing. Let’s vote Bruce out yall🗳️

Affordable housing, public safety and 2,000 shelter beds. Just kidding! 🤡 Seattle, don’t forget to Vote Katie Wilson this August and November 🗳️🗳️🗳️

ngl she’s probably better?

Bruce Harrell is the Andrew Cuomo of Seattle.

Seconded.

Mayoral Candidate Katie Wilson: "People are going to keep moving to our region, and we need to plan for that growth. So I'm here to urge you to adopt a strong Comprehensive Plan that allows for more housing in neighborhoods throughout our city."
