@MayorJenny what are you doing!!! You know the demands. You have the power to de-escalate what is happening on Capitol Hill right now. And approving this aggressive behavior by the SPD is deplorable.

A candle light vigil area has sprung up on 11th between Pine and Pike. #WesternBarricade

[Omari Salisbury @Omarisal]

This morning the stationary barricade that @SeattlePD installed at the intersection of 11th and Pine to the left is no longer standing and the protestors front line is now halfway up the block and has been stationary for a while. #WesternBarricade

So the @NFL apologizes to Black players and Black people as a whole for racism and never mention @Kaepernick7 - @nflcommish your half hearted weakly worded apology is just that, sorry. You are tone deaf.

[Council President M. Lorena González (Seattle) @CMLGonzalez]

Members of my staff are currently at the protest and we are outraged. A person in a wheelchair was given no time to back up from the front lines. @MayorJenny @carmenbest - this is NOT what de-escalation looks like!

For months on my news show I gave props to @GovInslee @kcexec @MayorJenny for their leadership around COVID-19. They focused the city, county, state on defeating COVID. I am challenging these leaders to show the same leadership to defeat racism and inequity. #LeadersLead

[Omari Salisbury @Omarisal]

#URGENT - Urging all Seattle, King County, and WA elected officials to come to the Western Barricade and lead the way to peace between protesters and police and I urge everyone to tell @MayorJenny and @carmenbest @kcexec @GovInslee to #CalmItDown

@CMAndrewJLewis @briana9 @ryangregg @CMDanStrauss @CMAndrewJLewis we need you to be more vocal and on a daily basis! Can you commit to supporting the demands of our black neighbors‽ https://t.co/hzeX2AUAkp #DefundThePolice

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@briana9 @CMAndrewJLewis I completely agree. You MUST hold the mayor and the police accountable. I live in Queen Anne and I expect you as my representative to stand up and speak up! The mayor promised no tear gas and just about an hour ago police are using it on peaceful protesters. #DefundThePolice

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@carmenbest @MayorJenny what are you going to do about the officers who have just fired tear gas on peaceful protesters on Capitol Hill‽ I though tear gas was no longer going to be used!!! #defundthepolice

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@CMAndrewJLewis do you know what is happening on Capitol Hill right now‽ we need you to stand up and defund the police!!! They have gas masks and are using tear gas. The police have defied the mayor!!!

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@MayorJenny where is that promise of no tear gas‽ I’m seeing it being used right now on peaceful protesters on Caipol Hill!

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@Monteneggroll This is sooooo true!

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@kogibbq Headed to you!!!

@1a nicotine addiction is nicotine addiction. You cannot stop an addiction by replacing one product with another! Any nicotine product is just still making money on addiction and NOT helping. No one is addicted to cigarettes. They are addicted to nicotine.

[Colin Hovde @colinhovde]

@1a can you please talk about plays that are not musicals or on broadway! Almost all he references I have heard are about broadway musicals.

@raquinosmith @ThtrAllianceDC What a wonderful afternoon with one of the most talented collaborators I have the pleasure of working with. I adore you Regina and I adore your passionate abandon! Can’t wait for the next project!!!
