Is She Lying or Delusional?

I can now confidently say socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is either a liar, delusional, or a little bit of both.

Wilson went up on stage at Epic Life Church Wednesday evening and proclaimed the notorious 12th Ave & Jackson St drug den in Chinatown-ID is improving.

That assessment is total B.S.

Good thing I report on this intersection every week and keep video receipts.

Wilson also touts the LEAD program for helping. But this diversion program is one of the main reasons why criminals remain on the streets.

The reality is Wilson has allowed this Asian American neighborhood to devolve into a human dumping ground.

Wilson admits the CID is even worse on weekends because there aren’t enough cops to patrol the streets.

Epic failure in leadership.
