Seattle’s only Socialist council member is using government resources to promote an anti-Trump event on Inauguration Day.

Kshama Sawant wrote a letter Seattle residents as 2016 came to a close that urged them to resist “right-wing anti-worker bigot” President-elect Donald Trump. A 10-paragraph screed against the billionaire ends with a link to “Resist Trump: Occupy Inauguration — Seattle!” on Facebook. Nearly 9,000 people have seen the event and 3,000 have committed to attend.

“Thank you for making 2016 a year to remember. When we fight, we win!” the Dec. 31 letter reads. “We cannot, as Hillary Clinton suggested, ‘give Trump a chance,’ or as Obama said, believe that ‘Trump’s success is our success.’ It is true that Trump does not have the mandate of the majority of Americans. But his election has emboldened the right wing, and we cannot be complacent. History demands that we immediately begin building mass peaceful resistance to Trump’s anti-worker, misogynist, anti-immigrant, and racist agenda.”

The Daily Caller, which first reported the letter Wednesday, said its content is unequivocally the use of “taxpayer resources to organize anti-Trump protests sponsored by a radical socialist organization that brags about its ties to global Marxists.”(continued)

“Is there not a law in Seattle banning people from using city resources for stuff like this?”

Seattle in itself is like any other major city in an ultra liberal state. But the problem with it is that it only really has one liberal area, King County. And there are so many people (liberals) in that county that they can outvote the rest of the state. And there is a mess of illegalities going on in there that are not being entertained to stop them.Sop, it isn’t just the misappropriation of government funds they are doing. The whole county is absolutely filthy.

The east side of the state over the hills, which is staunch conservative, has actually tried to figure out a way to secede from the west side of the state and form a new state long ago. So the libs don’t have a handle on that.
