A comment on Seattle’s Homeless Challenge.

It was recently announced that King County and the City of Seattle want to consolidate their homeless response into a single agency.

Hopefully this can be a good step forward in the right direction. As mentioned by other comments, there are much better resources for learning about homelessness in Seattle than an interview with a dropout Seattle City Council candidate who has a pretty clear political agenda.

Agreed that there are better ways to get informed but it's a politician's job to have a clear political agenda. Forgive me if I'm detecting the wrong tone but I'm becoming accustomed to hearing people say "political agenda" with the implication of some sinister plot.

Sorry if that was the implication. I just wanted to make it clear that Rufo is not just a film maker, but also someone with political aspirations.
