Where are the protests???
Robert Mittendorf retweeted
House of Blues Chicago canceled Jewish artist Matisyahu's sold-out show after threats of protests.
Yet it has no problem platforming rapper Saint Levant (aka Marwan Abdelhamid), who publicly praised those responsible for the violent attacks on Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam, thanking Moroccans "for what they did the other day" and saying they were "taking care of business", remarks he later reinforced on social media.
That's not consistency.
It's a blatant double standard.
Shame on you, @HOBChicago. You're sending a clear message about which artists are welcome and which Jews are not.

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg.
The Harrisburg Bureau of Fire was on the scene and while they worked to put out the fire, we were evacuated from the Residence safely by Pennsylvania State Police and assisted by Capitol Police. Thank God no one was injured and the fire was extinguished.
Every day, we stand with the law enforcement and first responders who run towards danger to protect our communities. Last night, they did so for our family – and Lori and I are eternally grateful to them for keeping us safe.
@PAStatePolice is on the scene leading this investigation and will keep the public updated.

Work to connect the new I-5 off-ramp to SR 529 is underway.
Remember, SB I-5 off-ramp to SR 529 and SB SR 529 in Marysville are closed all weekend. Detour via SB I-5.
We are finishing the off-ramp connecting I-5 to SR 529.
We’ll open the new ramp Monday morning!

I requested records from the WA Dept of Licensing regarding revenues/funds collected from the Climate Commitment Act gas tax and was quoted $2 MILLION for one method of retrieving those documents, to be released over two years.
