Seattle’s New Socialist Mayor Goes Full
Communist, Says She Won’t Allow Private
Grocery Stores To Close

Original Article

Posted By: Christopher L, 11/13/2025 1:53:04 PM

Democratic Seattle Mayor-elect Katie Wilson declared that she will not allow private grocery stores to close in a resurfaced video from September. Wilson said during her mayoral run that corporate grocery chains should not be allowed to only sell food to those who can afford it and expressed support for a “public option,” meaning that government-run grocery stores would be established.

Comments:

Ayn Rand tried to warn us of what the future could hold. In her novel "Atlas Shrugged," Rand describes Presidential directive Directive 10-289. The directive stated ; "All industrial, commercial, manufacturing and business establishments of any nature whatsoever shall henceforth remain in operation, and the owners of such establishments shall not quit nor leave nor retire, nor close, sell or transfer their business, under penalty [ of law ]." In other words it was illegal to go out of business. Sound far fetched now?

The lawsuits from the grocery stores will be fast and furious when she oversteps her legal authority trying to do this. I hope the city has the cash reserves to pay ... oh, wait. It's Seattle. Of course it doesn't.

At no time in thousands of years of world history has anybody "deserved" food that they did not hunt, grow or buy. Why now, all of a sudden do people "deserve" everything? FTA: "Together, we can build a Seattle where fresh food is for everyone" The average grocery store makes a 1-2 percent profit. Messing with that dynamic in any way produces a store that can not remain open and operate. Does anyone in Seattle realize how stupid this is? Anyone? Buehler? The majority of high school students would look at the thickness of "Atlas Shrugged" and wouldn't make it past the title page.

Or maybe they leave the store open with no merchandise and only 1 or 2 employees? I bristle at this "food desert" thinking. These are created by the area, not the company. Business exists where it can profit.

In the meantime, these city grocery stores will just 'sell' basic foods- no quick foods, no soda, no candy, limited salted snacks, no expensive meat or fish, a smattering of economical fruits and vegetables. Also, as these stores prepare to close, they will shrink that sales floor to a controllable minimum by moving shelves/etc so customers have limited space to roam.

When you put together a lot of the political and social programs for which the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats have been advocating, like all people deserve “free” food from government grocery stores, “free” government housing, pushing forward any person or minority group that the Democrats can recognize in accordance with “equity” and Democrat identity politics. Including reestablishing “open borders” to bring as many so-called Third World origin aliens as possible into the USA, with the covert assistance of leftist foreign governments who are happy to send their unwanted poor, uneducated and unskilled population groups either legally or illegally to the USA, who the Democrats will seek to grant an amnesty in unlimited numbers that they call “comprehensive immigration reform” and put on “a path to citizenship” while registering as many as possible as leftist Democrat supporters and future voters. With the ultimate political motive of transforming the USA into a minority-majority country, with the future US political agenda run by a vast coalition of both domestic and foreign origin minority groups allied to the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats, as they go about transforming the current USA into some form of socialist utopia.

So. Seattle is turning commie. Wowzer. Been like this for many years. The commies in three neighboring counties, taking a three time vote count to eliminate a candidate who won all the elections for that time only to find the the dems in the area would not accept the results and disqualified the candidate. Not to say more, I personally think these counties ought to meet up with the US Department of Justice.

You would think Seattle had a larger population: Seattle's population was approximately 737,015 in 2020, with a diverse demographic makeup: about 59.9% White, 17% Asian, 6.5% Black or African American, and 8.2% Hispanic. The city has a median age of around 35 years and a growing Latino population, with nearly 20% of residents born outside the United States. So, out of this population she's going to find all the candidates she desires?

BREAKING: 86% of PCR-Positive “COVID

A bombshell peer-reviewed study out of Germany just dismantled the scientific foundation used to justify lockdowns, social distancing, and vaccine mandates. When researchers compared the ALM’s week-by-week PCR positivity rates with the same labs’ IgG antibody testing data — essentially measuring who truly developed infection-induced immunity — they discovered something staggering: Only about 14% of those who tested PCR-positive during the early pandemic period (2020–mid-2021) actually developed antibodies — meaning most early “cases” were never real infections.

What happens when a child is promoted, grade by grade, through America’s K-12 school system but can’t actually perform at grade level in reading, writing or math? As the University of California at San Diego found, they get into college — and become someone else’s problem. Between 2020 and 2025, the number of freshmen with math skills below middle-school level “increased nearly thirtyfold” — unable to handle even the most basic high school math. In 2023, 13% of students could not perform at first-grade level, and 25% of kids got equation 7 + 2 = [ ] + 6 wrong.

In her new book, Listening to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution, Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett demonstrates that she has the intellect and judicial philosophy necessary to establish herself as a force on the Court in her own right. Barrett’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court by President Trump in 2020 was a dramatic moment, for several reasons.

In the swiftly degenerating world of western relationships one factor above all others can be identified as the culprit: Feminism. The driving force behind third-wave feminism is not the pursuit of equal rights it's the pursuit of power. Like any communist movement, unilateral power over society is the end goal. When power is the goal, such movements naturally attract narcissistic people. How can the nuclear family function when the female half of the equation is conditioned to become self serving, ego-maniacal, conflict oriented, status obsessed, victim obsessed and desperate for control? One particular trend has feminists enraged is "nose ring theory"

The 2020 census was marketed as an “actual enumeration,” a neutral count of people for apportionment and funding. It was not. The same official who helped block a basic citizenship question in 2018, John M. Abowd, then the Census Bureau’s Chief Scientist, pushed through a new, opaque methodology in 2020 called differential privacy. The new system deliberately injected mathematical noise into every block count in America, turning the census from a headcount into a model with knobs. The knob that mattered most was a single parameter, epsilon, a secrecy shroud known only to a small inner circle.

Charles Murray could be physically assaulted at a college while the perpetrators walked away with a ‘mark’ on their permanent record, the willingness of conservatives to appear on campus was an act of courage. To do it the way that Charlie Kirk did was sheer heroism.

Orwell, a fierce opponent of the Soviet Union, had his journalism relentlessly censored by British Communists and their fellow travelers, forcing him to resort to fiction, first Animal Farm and then 1984.

Gavin Newsom,”

President Donald Trump announced Friday night on Truth Social that he is withdrawing his support and endorsement of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her a "ranting lunatic" and accusing the Georgia Republican of "complaining" instead of celebrating what he described as his administration’s "record achievements." The president claimed that Greene "has told many people that she is upset that I don’t return her phone calls anymore" in a long post where he ultimately vowed "Complete and Unyielding Support" to any conservative primary challenger leading into the 2026 midterm elections. Trump claimed Greene had "gone Far Left," citing her recent appearance on The View, and gave her the new nickname "Wacky Marjorie."

The creeping transformation of Western cities under demographic and cultural pressures has long been a cautionary tale in Europe, particularly in the UK, where London—once a beacon of Enlightenment values (and more importantly biblical truths) — has earned the moniker “Londonistan” for its visible embrace of parallel Islamic societies.

After removing the statue of a famed Revolutionary War hero in 2021, the University of Virginia (UVA) plans to replace it with a park that will serve as a de facto land acknowledgement to an Indian tribe, The Federalist has learned. The Federalist obtained the school’s plans for the site that once held the statue of Brigadier General George Rogers Clark, which indicate that the new park will celebrate “the Virginia landscape and Indigenous stewardship practices.” “The politicization of the university has reached a level of absurdity as it has gleefully destroyed statues of Virginians,” Ann H. McLean, a lifelong Virginia resident who received her doctorate in art and architectural histor

A bombshell peer-reviewed study out of Germany just dismantled the scientific foundation used to justify lockdowns, social distancing, and vaccine mandates. When researchers compared the ALM’s week-by-week PCR positivity rates with the same labs’ IgG antibody testing data — essentially measuring who truly developed infection-induced immunity — they discovered something staggering: Only about 14% of those who tested PCR-positive during the early pandemic period (2020–mid-2021) actually developed antibodies — meaning most early “cases” were never real infections.
