Seattle's newly-elected socialist mayor Katie Wilson is already facing her first scandal just days into the job – getting hit with an ethics fine for failing to properly disclose over $10,000 in campaign contributions from her own parents.
The Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission wasted no time calling out Wilson's "oversight," proving once again that the radical left believes rules are for everyone else. How do you "forget" to disclose ten grand from your own family? Either Wilson is incompetent or she deliberately tried to hide where her money was coming from.
This is the same crowd that lectures us about "transparency" and "accountability" while running the most corrupt political machine in American history. Wilson joins a long list of Democrat politicians who think campaign finance laws are mere suggestions – until they get caught red-handed.
Another Day, Another Socialist Scandal
What's particularly rich is that Wilson ran on a platform of cleaning up Seattle politics and fighting corruption. Instead, she can't even manage basic campaign disclosure requirements that every other candidate follows without breaking a sweat.
The ethics fine sends a clear message: even in deep-blue Seattle, there are still some people willing to hold these radical politicians accountable for their actions. Wilson's failure to disclose such a significant contribution raises serious questions about what else she might be hiding from Seattle voters.
"This is exactly the kind of 'rules for thee, not for me' mentality that Americans are sick of from Democrat politicians," one Seattle resident told local media.
While President Trump is busy draining the swamp in Washington and restoring accountability to our federal government, local Democrats like Wilson continue proving they can't be trusted with the most basic responsibilities of public office.
Patriots across the country are watching these local races more closely than ever, and Wilson's ethics violation is a perfect reminder of why we must stay vigilant. If she can't handle campaign finance disclosures honestly, how can Seattle residents trust her with their tax dollars?
