Wednesday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Wednesday, 11/12/25, 8:08 am

  • Fuck the people deporting wildland firefighters, still.
  • I wouldn’t call it yet, but it’s sure looking likely that Katie Wilson is going to win the mayor’s race. Still, make sure that your vote was counted.
  • This administration is absolute garbage. Part a billion, no funds for foreign students at the UW.

    So if Katie Wilson wins the mayoral race, does that mean she can finally move out of her parent’s place? Will her husband finally get a job?

    Harrell may not have been the best mayor in Seattle’s history, but cleaning up the mess the progressives left him was always gonna take more than just a few years.

    But no, Seattel voters decide to pick (checks notes) someone with absolutely no experience…..at anything.

    See, here’s the difference between now and the twenty-teens: Nutball progressive “leadership” could always hide their shitty policy decisions behind a screaming good economy. Now however, there is no screaming good economy to hide behind – their god-awful policy and budget decisions will be front and center, for all to see….

    Seattle decided to hop onto the FAFO Train…so hang on, its gonna be a wild ride……a wild ride until the wheels fall off, that is.

    Is this Frank Blethen or John Curley?

    Playing all the hits. Most of them lies. (Parents house, no experience at anything…)

    In attendance at today’s MAHA Summit is noted public Health Expert and sexual predator Russell Brand.

    Not in attendance, any member of the press or a pool feed.

    Democrats, “Here’s three emails that strongly suggest the President was a customer, if not paying then gratis, of the services of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking.”

    Republicans, “They’re cherry picking. Here’s 20,000 documents and the other side is ignoring prominent democrats!”

    Democrats, “Release all of it and prosecute every single person we can make a case against, Democrat, Republican, John Bircher, American Socialist Party, Independent, foreign national, Green card holder, illegal alien, naturalized…

    Republicans interrupting, “We are protecting the VICTIMS!”

    Headline du jour:

    Dow rallies 300 points to new record with shutdown set to end Wednesday: Live updates

    Chuck Schumer wasn’t just starving children. He was depressing the markets.

    For what, exactly?

    Conservative podcaster Matt Morse claimed, “I am one of the largest pro-Trump commentators in the nation. I get tens of millions of views every single month talking about Trump’s America First agenda. And right now, I’m absolutely fucking beyond PISSED OFF that tonight, as a justification for H-1B visas, Trump said that Americans don’t ‘have talent.’ Absolutely unreal.”

    “This has been a rough week for President Trump. Here he is defending H1B visas by saying we need them because not all Americans can make missiles. UNPOPULAR TAKE: Why would we want foreigners making OUR missiles?” former Newsmax producer Breanna Morello asked.

    Well, what does Putin think? What would Putin say?

    Once we’ve replaced all the workers I see no problem getting $200 to $250 a month in new subscription fees. Step one, RAISE THE VC MONEY. Step 2 ..?..?, step 3 PROFIT!!!

    A J.P. Morgan report suggests that the AI industry needs to make $650 billion in annual revenue to deliver a 10% return on investments that companies are expected to make through 2030. The report, shared by analyst Max Weinbach on X, equates this to an extra monthly recurring payment of $34.72 from every iPhone user or $180 from every Netflix subscriber.

    The whole thing is being televised live by multiple entities.

    The only person who wants press to be there is Alex Padilla. Because after the embarrassment of the Schumer Shutdown effort, clown show is all that Democrats have left.

    Wait till Matt Morse doesn’t get a $2,000 payment, if they’re ever sent.

    Next up: The publication from Workers World reports that the same ROI can be attained instead by $650B in labor expense reductions.

    Although common sense should lead one to the same realization.

    Hybrid batteries, I assume, will be much of the production.

    Autos
    Toyota opens new U.S. battery plant, confirms $10 billion in new investments

    First Toyota battery plant outside of Japan, this will be. Money handed out by the Biden administration is driving this although DJT47 will claim credit. For those who see unfairness in that, I remind you that Biden had no trouble claiming credit for vaccine administrations even though DJT45 was already up to a million doses per day by the time the term ended.

    Is this Katie’s campaign manager? or perhaps her mommy?

    Feel free to post her resume’…….

    Also noted is how you could not refute anything that was written – whether that be about Katie or Seattle’s recent history of progressive “leadership”(insert laughter here).

    Calling the claims lies is a refutation. Although now I’m curious to hear more from each side. Until now I haven’t given a shit about the Seattle elections.

    Perhaps DeSantis should reach out to SPD with FL’s talent acquisition efforts. SPD and NYPD will both be looking to improve their lives with the changes in leadership to come.

    – Boat Repair
    – Construction
    – Office Assistant
    – Seattle Transit Riders Union(LMFAO), Director

    and thats all…………….

    Yep, seems like she uber qualified to be mayor of a major metropolitan city! Sign her up!
