Hour 2: Seattle transit tax, Amazon layoffs, Renton drops Flock

Seattle voters opted for another tax increase and yet they wonder why the city is so expensive. Chicago voters just rebuked their progressive mayor on gunshot detection, while Seattle killed the same tech before testing it. Another round of Amazon layoffs. // Big Local: Marysville police use an adhesive GPS tool to track down a suspect on the run. Renton is ending its contract with Flock. It’s looking like Rep. Michael Baumgartner should keep Washington’s 4^th congressional district red. // You Pick the Topic: Harmett Dhillon is stepping down from her role at the DOJ. Also, Sharon Yoo is no longer at KING 5 which is a big loss for this show.

Jason Rantz is Seattle’s fresh, contemporary conservative voice. Young and urban, passionate and bold, Rantz is outnumbered by the Progressive chorus, yet refuses to ignore the conservative principles at the core of America’s greatness. Prolific on-air and online, Rantz knows he’s outnumbered in Seattle, but he’s never shy to be outspoken about it.
