Robert Cruickshank@robertcruickshank.com · 9h agoSeattle voters don't want "tough" on crime policies or politicians. They want leaders to be "responsive" on crime -- to show up with a range of solutions that demonstrate urgency, seriousness, and effectiveness. This is why Nilu Jenks is winning District 5. She gets this. Julie Kang just panders.
America is weaker than it has ever been, running out of defensive ammunition, terrible military leadership, vulnerable to major climate events and a growing unvaccinated population. Then there is the corruption. No friends , no allies.

Irritating to see the Toronto island airport battle framed as NIMBYism. This was a project with zero business case that would have destroyed economic value and soft power – and stopped homebuilding! It was a terrible project that deserved to die. When people say no, sometimes they are correct.
