BREAKING: Rich women in Seattle suck too. We take a break from curb stomping Governor Bob Ferguson's political agenda and covering the state legislature to talk about some of the WOMEN who have disappointed us lately. First, Melinda Gates takes the stage at the Paramount and her advice and perspective is underwhelming. How can you claim to help women while donating to PACs that fought the Capital Gains tax, Melinda? Then, we move on to analysis of the race for King County Executive. We just want this to be over. Too many friends in both camps. But we do pick a side. Finally, we talk Denny Blaine and the best/worst ways to create hostile masturbation infrastructure. Follow for more coverage at the Burner Seattle, and don't forget to call in with your questions to (571) IT BURNS. Byeeeeeeee

Oh my god did you hear??? King County wants us to pay $24 a year for a fingerprinting database. And they're sending all the data to ICE. Sounds like a raw deal, huh? Let's cancel that subscription by voting "No" in the April 22 Special Election. We'll tell you when to vote "Yes" on a property levy...maybe when it funds public defenders. 

Meanwhile in Olympia, the Washington Senate Democrats defiled the rent stabilization bill and Governor Bob Ferguson maintains his crusade against the Wealth Tax. The Democrats may be fed up with Bobby Ferg enough that they could circumvent take the wealth tax straight to the people. But would they win? Maybe. Would it feel good to do it just to mess with Governor-No-Fun-Ferguson? Absolutely.
