jason rantz is all over this story and following it forever. -- who are the national lawyers guild and the southern poverty law center because they are involved in this. who are they? >> they are. so both groups are separate but they work effectively for the same purpose. they're both progressive groups and we're talking about the lawyers, they coordinate with the various activists and show up alongside them with the intent of helping them. with the intent of going after the police so when someone from an antifa side or other agitator groups end up getting violent, well, guess what happened, you have the lawyers that are ready to defend the folks and pre-send when they did wasn't violent ant and place the blame on heavy handed tactics of police. look at their involvement and they'll always defend the violent people and make the exact same claims about the police and heavy handed responses if you're not supposed to make arrests or be heavy handed when a molotov cocktail is lobbed at your head. coming to the southern poverty law center they've be

we need a seattle guy and we've got one, jason rantz is with me now. get right at it.essness authority basically in charge of solving homelessness in the entire county driven by seattle. every full-time employee is offered unlimited vacation which is absurd on its face. you have people in high level positions who don't get that kind of perk but it stinks a little more when you realize they ask for $12 billion to solve homelessness over the next five years which is an absurd number for them to put out for a budget. they are not likely to get that. homelessness has gotten worse, not better. they don't actually believe in putting people in shelter and refused to do sweeps. the only time they will do that is if you can guarantee that person will get permanent housing. if it is a studio apartment they will start sweeping. stuart: why the unlimited vacations? i don't get that. >> because they have a certain group of people they are trying to convince to work for them. this is part of the -- the complaint is they don't get treated well. in addition to that we 6-figure salarie

jason rantz with us, is this beginning in washington state?> probably is, not just business but wealthy washingtonians. this ruling by the state supreme court is laughably ridiculous and they don't hide it. under washington state law, income tax is unconstitutional, property tax is unconstitutional in this context. what is weird is the irs and 49 other states consider capital gains tax and income tax, in their decision the reason they move in this direction, the upside down tax system burdens disproportionately the community and we have too wealthy white people. they did not rule on the law, it reads like a press release coming from the democrat party and as he pointed out in his statement, not just to come. washington state legislature talking about wealth tax for the last year and a half and that's likely what they will do next. stuart: here's one for you, crews clear out homeless encampments in some seattle neighborhoods, >> we have shelter space available, most of the folks who are homeless just refused to accept it and then go on to anoth

let's talk about that with our radio host, jason rantz. it is all great to see you.323. senior trump pushed officials to hunt for evidence and supporting an unsubstantiated series. according to current and former american officials. the effort comes as president trump escalates a public campaign to became china for the pandemic. i mean in hindsight it is embarrassing. >> it is embarrassing. we saw a lot of embarrassing journalism where we were supposed to pretend they passed. they would say the opposite no matter what. >> they did it with drugs and with the vaccines early on. anything that donald trump said. they decided to say that's wrong and part of a conspiracy and fringe and whatever it happens to be. >> suddenly, what are they doing? they're walking sort of back. well, on the one hand, it is not that big of a deal. actually, you know, it is still up in the air and really does not matter. >> let's just move on. >> you are talking about, may of 2021, quoting here, if it turns out that the covid-19 was caused by elite from a lab in wuhan, it will rank among the gr

jason rantz seattle radio talk show host joins me now with reaction to all of this. thank you for coming on. the southern poverty law enforcement center, the organization that supposedly tracks extremism here in america, has dismissed the idea that antifa was a threat to anyone. they said the threat of lethal violence pales in comparison to that posed by far right extremists. those are their exact words. tell me what group on the right they are talking about that are violently attacking law enforcement. >> they don't exist. what we often hear from this organization and others, including some folks in the media, is that there is this big white supremacy threat. it exists but they don't label some of these groups. every once in a while you hear a name. they say white supremacy threat. we have actual organizers who become terrorists once they become antifa activists. they use political ideology to inflict violence upon people. their intent is to scare people into taking their political positions. in this case their intent is to help abolish police. they want to get rid
