🚨 Mainstream media refuses to call things what they are when it protects the left. This is the Sunday KOMO News headline on the armed suspect who charged a Secret Service checkpoint at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner; “Suspect in custody, Trump safe after shooting scare.” The URL includes "trump-rushed-off-stage-after-loud-popping-noises" and "gunshots-sounds-noises." I mean, WTF @komonews? Not “assassination attempt.” Not “targeted attack on Trump and administration officials.” Just a “shooting scare” and “loud popping noises.” Shame on you KOMO News! You should immediately retract this article and write an unbiased headline like: "Trump survives likely 3rd major assassination attempt in less than two years at hands of radical leftist." This is called burying the lede, and mainstream media is famous for doing it to protect their side. The point is simple: this is how language gets manipulated by the mainstream media, and everyone knows it. They downplay left-wing hate and violence, and never force voters on the left to confront their side’s division and extremism. And for us on the conservative side? Our words get massively blown out of proportion to justify bills like SB 5974 which hand unelected bureaucrats the power to decertify democratically elected county sheriffs over manipulated “wrongthink” on social media. Voters be damned. When will voters demand honest reporting instead of narrative protection? DMs are open.

@OrionTanka0716 @Lambo553018 Still making uneducated comments Tank. The idea of this bill was first brought forward in 2021 when Democrats were crafting their accountability proposals. It's been planned for a few years.

@Lambo553018 I dont support the Keith Swank law. But he brought it on himself and his focus is on the media, Dems, and trans whole we in Pierce deal with gangs and drugs and homeless. We need a Sheriff focused on us.

KOMO News@komonews·
Washington voters will decide the direction of the state’s highest court for years to come, with five of nine seats on the Washington Supreme Court up for election Nov. 3 — an unusually large turnover that could shape rulings on tax policy and other constitutional issues. The election includes two open seats, two appointed incumbents, and one sitting elected justice. Typically, turnover is slower, with three races every two years. This year, however, voters will elect five justices. Link: komonews.com/news/local/fiv… #washingtonnews #SupremeCourt #Turnover #November3rd #Olympia #ConstitutionalIssues

Our health inspectors have been turned away 10 times at the Northwest ICE Processing Center. We're seeking a court order to get our inspectors into this facility. These are some of the over 3,500 complaints — including food with worms, refusal to give medication, and assault.

@AGOWA Of course they received more than 3,500 complaints. That’s what your side does hoping you’ll be able to shut down the facility. Why aren’t you helping to keep our communities safe?

Attorney General Nick Brown
State regulators have received more than 3,500 complaints about unsafe, unsanitary, and inhumane conditions at GEO Group’s private prison. They won’t let inspectors in, despite state law and a court order. We're back in court again to stop them from blocking access. (1/2)

@GovBobFerguson The law is clear: you can’t force inspections even if you find an activist judge. It will be overturned in federal court.

Today, I announced we're seeking a court order to permit health inspections at Northwest ICE Processing Center. The law is clear: We have the legal authority. GEO Group has obstructed our efforts. We've beaten GEO in court before, and we'll beat them again.

@Todd46359927111 @OrionTanka0716 So, if I post approved things I can keep my elected position? What other elected official, other than sheriffs, has to worry about being removed from office for their speech?

If you’re done being treated like a serf in your own state, reach out. Let’s connect and push back harder. The 87% spoke. It’s time the people in power start listening, or get replaced. King Bob and his court have made their move. Now it’s our turn. Washington belongs to the people, not the permanent political class in Olympia. DMs open. Join us on 4/30 to fight this!  Bring friends. Donate. Buy a ticket. Volunteer.  Find out how in the first reply. #RepealSB5974 #SaveOurSheriffs

@saveoursheriff @DougJones Keith, Perhaps you should be running for Governor. The great state of Alabama does not need a Governor with a skewed vision of the law nor his power to work outside the law. Democrats reconsider your candidate.

Charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with a federal crime for paying informants to help dismantle hate groups is an outrageous weaponization of the Dept of Justice and the FBI. As someone who has been a prosecutor and has taken on the Klan I can tell you that use of paid informants is a common tactic used to dismantle drug cartels, the mob and extremist groups on both the right and the left. It is clear that all civil rights organizations are in the cross hairs of this Administration and that folks, puts everyone at risk.

The Center Square Washington
Washington AG Nick Brown is responding for the first time after The Center Square obtained nearly 1,000 pages of internal income tax documents. Brown pushed back on claims his office advised lawmakers on how to bypass voters or the state constitution. According to Brown, his office was simply explaining existing law and court precedent, something AGs regularly do. When asked about emails referencing referendums, Brown said they reflected how revenue laws are treated under current law, not an effort to avoid voter input. His comments add a new layer to the growing debate over Washington’s income tax and the role of the AG’s office.

Political violence of all stripes against any political figure is unacceptable. So is the rank hypocrisy of someone who now says he respects law enforcement after he provoked the largest political violence in DC and then pardoned those who attacked officers.
