I'm curious as to why deep-pocket donors don't put pressure on Plymouth Housing to stop housing fentanyl dealers and handing out drug use paraphernalia. They run neo-sweep apartments where anything goes. No reciprocity of behaviors in exchange for free forever housing. People are carried out of their facilities in body bags, yet the wealthy empty their wallets for this organization instead of putting pressure on them to reform their policies. These policies kill people and amp up criminal behavior in every city where they are located across our region. If you went to their Seattle Dances gala on Saturday and gave them money, I ask why you don't put pressure on them to change their ways. They're killing people with their permissiveness and hurting our cities. Please help instead of just writing a check.

NEW: Over the weekend, "Seattle Dances" raised more than $1.5 million dollars for Plymouth Housing, a controversial non-profit claiming to be solving homelessness. Organizers even managed to rope in local journalists and "celebrities" to push their agenda. But critics crashed this party with a protest, to educate Seattle's donor class about what's really happening inside these so called "permanent supportive housing" facilities. Just look at the 911 calls and police reports that continue to show a pattern of crime, chaos, and death whenever Plymouth buildings are built in communities. I'm dropping a more in-depth story later today. Here's a preview. 🧵👇 @weheartseattle|@PlymouthHousing|@DiscoveryCWP

A Mother and young Son give testimony that housing before treatment enabled his addiction for years. Listen to Sage explain first hand the failures of Housing First. Ultimately it was the higher power of God that set him free. It’s promising that @SecretaryTurner and @HUDgov are ensuring faith based organizations get their fair share of the budget and that housing with compulsory services be adopted by local municipalities. @KCPubHealth @MayorofSeattle @kcexec

Watch for yourself what “affordable housing” or “housing first” looks like in Seattle. Rosa hasn’t slept in her apartment in over a year and instead lives on the streets where we met. She invited me into her home to see why she doesn’t sleep there. DESC a 100M NPO keeps building more and more housing projects without first investing in the need for supportive services they claim to offer (and on your tax paying dollar). 👇🏼Rosa is educating voters and I hope you listen to her. @HUDgov

Another random run in with a Mom and addicted Son who stopped to give me their testimony of Housing First. Christopher lives @PlymouthHousing and has been a volunteer for We Heart Seattle until the CEO banned me from recruiting more residents to come out with us. She proclaimed they were too vulnerable to volunteer 🙄 Listen to Christopher tell us that treatment before housing would be better. I wish Homeless, Inc. would stop suing the feds and start looking and listening to suffering addicts like Christopher and his heartbroken Mom. @HUDgov @MayorofSeattle @kcexec

A Mom with toddler awaits her drug dealer to let her in to a Plymouth Housing project. Tax Payer funded Plymouth on Stewart houses four major known drug dealers in Seattle. The rest of the residents “are drug addicted thieves” according to my trusted sources. Housing doesn’t end crime, addiction, or street loitering. @MayorofSeattle @kcexec @HUDgov

A deceased body was found by a We Heart Seattle volunteer near a tent at Smith Cove Park in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle. Temperatures were as low as 27 degrees the night before he was discovered. Camp removals and interventions are controversial in Washington State. I believe they save lives and restore public safety. @MayorofSeattle @BobFergusonGov @ExecZahilay

These are not homeless camps. These are crime and drug scenes. The anti-sweep activists and state lawmakers claim these “camps” are down and out victims of housing affordability and supply. Look for yourself @MayorofSeattle @ExecZahilay @BobFergusonGov What is the clear plan for this criminal activity destroying our emerald cities green spaces?

I can’t help but laugh… Thank you for having me on @jcurleyshow ! The “Respondent Driven” coupon is in the comments. Listen to the new ways we are counting the homeless in Seattle @HUDgov @SecretaryTurner
The John Curley Show@jcurleyshow

Seattle's "homeless headcount" has some issues according to @weheartseattle chief Andrea Suarez (@weheartfounder). We're paying drug addicts to self report, require nothing but their word and trust that no one will abuse the system. What could go wrong? youtube.com/watch?v=vChQPL…

Thoughts and prayers for the families and friends of two murdered teenagers today in Seattle’s Rainier Beach Neighborhood. This area has been a hot spot for gun violence for decades. By and large the majority of the community have advocated for more cameras like @Flock_Safety for years. I was disappointed in a recent District 2 community safety meeting led by new Councilman Eddie Lin that he would advocate to not just take cameras down but stop further installation.

Watch Seattle’s spectacular drug and “homeless” policy failures in broad daylight where open use of narcotics, housed addicts loiter, “waste management” and well intended donations create more trash. A social worker named Justin approaches me during outreach proclaiming sanctioned camp space and shelter is a plenty but there is not forced use. @MayorofSeattle @ExecZahilay @BobFergusonGov @SeattleCouncil

Please take a read on topic of narcotics rampant in our @CityofSeattle @SeattleParks with no end or plan in sight. I interviewed with @jasonrantz on the street level reality of tents and drugs populating parks at rapid rate. Article in comments. @MayorofSeattle

Watch this shocking video of a corner tobacco store in the heart of Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood (once an iconic jewelry store) sell drug distribution baggies, meth pipes, butane torches, and tooters. The rest of this building was boarded up recently by the city for becoming a squatters drug den. Blanchard Street is a known hot spot for drug dealing, using, and fatal overdose deaths. Should the selling of paraphernalia and tools to smoke illegal and lethal drugs be allowed? Should a zoning permit be required? Perhaps a special tax of these items we can all get behind? Canada has taken a stand against butane torches that are root causes of tent, tv, and building fires. Seattle has an issue of making it too easy to get high, thus havoc and crime in our neighborhoods. @SeattleCouncil @CityofSeattle @MayorofSeattle I see several opportunities to champion legislation to stop the drug friendly culture in Seattle. 👇🏼

It was a surreal morning being honored among Eagle Scouts, Rotarians and a room of Seattle’s most legendary civic servants with the Suzie Burke Community Leadership Award “irrepressible passion with a purpose”. I share this with folks like Bob Donegan, Mike Dunn, The Spady Family and my favorite @choeshow!

@seattletimes , through a public records request, obtained the auditor’s June letter naming the 19 organizations. The letter details an array of possible issues. Some seem minor and could be explained by administrative or bookkeeping errors the article reads. So why not list the providers especially during this fruitful time of year where they will continue to receive generous donations from private sector? The “no experience required in the name of equity” element is also the playbook for our next mayor. @wilsonformayor says it here in her solicitation to work for her 👇🏼 And yes of course I applied hoping to bring our experience to our city in some way for better outcomes.

The probe follows an audit that found the Department of Community and Human Services failed to properly oversee grant recipients receiving millions of dollars. st.news/4p5ZlMT

@Twolfrecovery Diversion programs cancelled accountability thus cancelling human growth through pain and progress. As they say, no pain— no gain.

You can thank the mental health diversion program passed in 2018 for this guy being out of custody who killed a woman in her own home in San Francisco. He was out on "diversion" = get out of jail free card. That's the truth.
