NEW: Start the sweeps Seattle! Even after Mayor Katie Wilson promised to handle the homeless drug crisis differently, the city is quietly clearing out drug encampments and it's still a game of Whack-a-mole. The vast majority of people at Wednesday morning's sweep along Martin Luther King Jr Way rejected shelter options and headed right down the block to set up tents. That's because they wanted to do their drugs. Difference is, far-left activist group Stop The Sweeps Seattle is surprisingly quiet about the encampment removals under the mayor. 🧵👇 Mayor Katie B.

NEW: After dozens of neighbor complaints about homeless drug addicts destroying Seattle's Dr. Jose Rizal Park, the fencing is back up and major renovations are about to get started. But We Heart Seattle's Andrea Suarez says the dealers and addicts are now moving further into wooded areas in Beacon Hill and the city is barely enforcing public camping laws in this area. Suarez is also calling out Seattle Parks Superintendent AP Diaz for being MIA. Mayor Katie B.

NEW: Emotionally charged day in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood. First responders and neighbors helped save a woman's life early Thursday morning after a fentanyl overdose. Then We Heart Seattle's Andrea Suarez confronted the people in an encampment suspected of supplying the deadly drugs.

NEW: The homeless drug crisis is out of control in Seattle. And it's now evident, Mayor Katie Wilson is going to make the problem worse. During her first State of the City address, she talked about building more housing and shelter. But no solutions to deal with mental illness or drug addiction ravaging the city. 🧵👇 Mayor Katie B.

HAPPENING NOW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson's homelessness strategy is turning into a game of Whack-A-Mole. The MLK Way encampment cleared last month has already come roaring back. There are at least 20 people living here. Open-air drug use is rampant. During her State of the City address on Tuesday, Wilson will say she's building more shelters in the city. But anyone in the outreach world will tell you the mayor has ZERO plan for the "service resistant." In other words, Wilson can build all the shelters she wants. But unless there is a mechanism to force people indoors, the crisis will get worse and the sweeps will continue. So far, we are seeing a repeat of the Bruce Harrell administration. 🧵👇 Seattle Police Department|Mayor Katie B.

NEW: Parts of Seattle look like sh*t. And Mayor Katie Wilson is overwhelmed with homeless drug encampments popping up everyday. That's because she's captured by the same policy failures of "Housing First" and "harm reduction." I sat down with John Curley and Andrea Suarez on KIRO Newsradio to discuss the city's permissive drug culture and this street crisis that just won't go away.

HAPPENING NOW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson wants these homeless drug addicts far away from the FIFA World Cup stadium in SODO. Imagine if fans and visitors saw the open air drug use, tent encampments, and permissive street culture. What would they think of the city? We Heart Seattle's Andrea Suarez and I are checking in on the city's problematic hot spots. Right now, it looks worse than ever as Wilson pushes the addicts further away from the downtown tourist corridor. For whatever it's worth, there's another mega sweep scheduled for Friday in SODO. Will it make a difference? Mayor Katie B. Wilson|We Heart Seattle|Center on Wealth & Poverty at Discovery Institute

NEW: Homeless outreach workers say encampment sweeps are rapidly picking up across Seattle under Mayor Katie Wilson. The latest one happened Wednesday morning near 6th Ave & Yesler Way in downtown. It's unclear how many people chose to take services or shelter options. But by all accounts, it's turning into another game of Whack-A-Mole as Wilson remains under enormous pressure to clear everyone out before the FIFA World Cup later this year. Meanwhile, notice how far-left activist group Stop The Sweeps Seattle is nowhere to be found. They were a constant thorn in the side of former Mayor Bruce Harrell and criticized him for using the same encampment removal methods as Wilson. But when it comes to comrade Katie, they are suddenly silent. Mayor Katie B. Wilson|Center on Wealth & Poverty at Discovery Institute

NEW: Another mega sweep in the books under Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson. Wednesday morning, crews cleared out dozens of drug addicts near the Ballard Fred Meyer store and Burke-Gilman Trail. As expected, only a few people got apartments or tiny houses. The rest rejected shelter options being offered and moved down the block to start the fourth iteration of this encampment. Most stunning of all, I saw a young Asian American woman looking totally out of place. Spotting anyone from this racial group in one of the city's drug dens is a rare occurrence. I tried to help. But the guys surrounding her made sure she stayed. Does anyone recognize her? What is going on here? Mayor Katie B. Wilson|Seattle Police Department|Center on Wealth & Poverty at Discovery Institute

NEW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is now dealing with a credibility problem. She said homeless outreach and sweeps would be done differently. But in reality, nothing has changed from the prior administration. On Friday, the MLK Jr. Way drug encampment was cleared for the second time in less than a month. The addicts returned immediately and set up tents in the very same spot or simply moved across the street. The so called "service resistant" people do not believe cops will arrest them for illegal camping. Men and women out here also know for a fact City Attorney Erika Evans won't prosecute for open-air drug use. That's why Seattle keeps losing this game of Whack-A-Mole. BTW, anyone see District 2 Councilmember Eddie Lin? This guy is totally MIA when it comes to addressing the street crisis. 🧵👇 Mayor Katie B.

HAPPENING NOW: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson has lost control of her streets. Parts of Chinatown-ID are packed with drug dealers slinging fentanyl, people are recklessly starting fires on sidewalks, and the black market of stolen goods is thriving. There is no way Wilson has this under control by June when FIFA World Cup games are played in the city. Remind me again what the plan is to address this disaster zone? Mayor Katie B.

#EXCLUSIVE: Over the weekend, I confronted Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson(Katie Wilson for Seattle Mayor) about her Transit Riders Union's ties to controversial far-left activist group Stop The Sweeps Seattle. They've been a thorn in the side of Mayor Bruce Harrell(Mayor Bruce Harrell) since the beginning of his administration. The groups were making so called "harm reduction" kits for homeless drug addicts which usually includes meth pipes and fentanyl foil. Some critics call these "suicide kits" and believe it enables drug addiction and death. I also asked Wilson if she would use sweeps to clear drug encampments in the city. 🧵👇

#EXCLUSIVE: One week ago, Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson took a victory lap during the State of the City address and implied her new approach to housing the homeless was working. Problem is, one of the women allegedly housed is now back on the streets. She claims city workers offered her a mold infested shelter unit inside the Low Income Housing Institute's Interbay Village. There are now calls for audits of all agencies helping the homeless, including the city's own outreach team. Mayor Katie B.

NEW: Just days before the FIFA World Cup in Seattle, someone is firing steel BB's at homeless drug addicts near Dr. Jose Rizal Park. This area is just minutes from the stadium where soccer matches will be played. Neighbors say they are seeing a cluster of new tents after Wilson aggressively swept encampments near the downtown tourist corridor. The mayor is accused of trying to mask the city's drug crisis by pushing addicts to other parts of the city like Beacon Hill, Chinatown-ID, and now the East Duwamish Greenbelt. As long as fans do not see the urban decay and human suffering, the Wilson administration likely believes that's a win. We Heart Seattle|Mayor Katie B.

HAPPENING NOW: The Seahawks Super Bowl parade drew hundreds of thousands of people into Seattle. You would think Mayor Katie Wilson would sweep tents near the Space Needle, one of the crown jewels in the city. Instead, a massive drug tent stood out like a sore thumb. Cops walked by without batting an eye. Another embarrassing moment for the Wilson administration that clearly isn't ready for the big time. Mayor Katie B.

NEW: Lake City neighbors are blasting socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson after her first State of the City address. They say she failed to offer solutions to combat the fentanyl epidemic destroying lives on the streets. People living on 33rd Ave NE say their hood is an absolute disaster zone and looks like a scene out of a zombie movie. Addicts are laid out on the road, kids play in a needle infested park, and drug encampments are spreading on to sidewalks. One brave resident shot this video today from his car to prove how bad it is right now. He's challenging Mayor Wilson to show up and see the drug fueled chaos and human suffering for herself. This community is demanding immediate solutions and is tired of the Housing First mantra that is clearly not working. Mayor Katie B.
