Illegal immigrants took a Seattle park hostage. But as activists claim to fight for migrants, they're really threatening a second CHOP zone.
In 2020, Black Lives Matter and Antifa activists committed an insurrection and commandeered six city blocks, with weapons in tow. This time, some of the same radicals that supported CHOP are transporting migrants around the city demanding taxpayers pay a ransom under the threat of losing a Seattle park.
They were initially backed by a mix of private donations and King County funds, but that ran dry. During the bitterly cold weather in January, and under threat of removal from a motel that wasn’t being compensated, progressive housing activists transported the illegal immigrants to Seattle City Hall to demand funds to keep them housed. Mayor Bruce Harrell relented, giving them a month’s worth of funding for motel rooms.
Late Wednesday evening, a private donor offered to pay a random. The unidentified donor covered enough funds for hotel rooms for the next eleven days. They’re doing this because they know they can get away with it. The city allows it. On Wednesday, according to KOMO-TV, Seattle Parks and Recreation opened up Garfield Park bathrooms for them to use, a sign that the city would not push back against this takeover.
