THREAD: This is going to be a long one. But I want to take a few minutes to point out some of the obvious moral and logical shortcomings at Seattle City Hall. If the press doesn& #39;t do it, then who will? #TheDivide #Q13FOX #SeattleProtest #SeattleRiots
Let& #39;s start with Councilwoman @Lisa_Herbold, who only calls for peace in Seattle when it allows her to make a political point against the president.
And while Councilwoman Herbold speaks with absolute certitude about what& #39;s happening 200 miles away in Portland, she acts as if she can& #39;t possibly know for sure what& #39;s happening in the city she is elected to serve.
One thing Councilwoman Herbold does seem to know for sure is that she does not agree with President Trump "politicizing" a police agency. Which is of course something the Seattle City Council would never, ever do.
And then there is Seattle Council President @MLorenaGonzalez, who condemns protesters going to the homes of council members, but says nothing when they go to @MayorJenny Durkan& #39;s house or when they spend 23 days occupying a city neighborhood where people live.
No politician - whether it is a city council member or a president - should be let off the hook when they display clear moral and logical inconsistency. If the press doesn& #39;t call this out, no one will.
