Rep. Jasmine Crockett Will Be Missed
U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett, a civil rights attorney, has emerged as a vocal advocate for the rights of Black Americans, notably challenging legislative efforts by Representative Byron Donalds. Donalds has championed the D.C. Crimes Act of 2025, a measure designed to impose stricter penalties on juvenile offenders in the nation's capital, which Crockett argues denies young people the same opportunities for redemption he once received, citing his own past felony charge and subsequent expungement.

The County’s Homelessness Agency Gets Gutted and August Primary Endorsements Collide
Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu talks with contributor Guy Oron and guest Erica C. Barnett about two big political stories. First, The King County Regional Homelessness Authority is being effectively dismantled, and the city and county will take back control of the bulk of contracts for housing and shelter. Jane, Guy, and Erica dig into what the city and county's announcement actually means for Seattle's homelessness response and if this regional experiment was doomed from the start. Then, the August primaries are heating up. Erica and Guy discuss what Mayor Katie Wilson’s endorsements say about her administration and how they differ from the newest endorsements released by The Stranger. Plus, they get into turbulence and turnover inside the mayor’s office. If you enjoyed this interview with Chris Chappell, the Brewshed Alliance Director of Washington Wild, learn more here.
