Antifa Erects “Big, Beautiful Border Wall” Around Their Latest Seattle ‘Autonomous Zone’
Posted on
Seattle s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone is back, apparently, after what was previously referred to as CHOP drove headlines this summer after police belatedly moved to dismantle large portions of it. It has managed to survive, in it s current form emerging recently at Cal Anderson Park as more of a homeless shelter occupying a public park.
But the central irony no doubt missed by those advocating it as some kind of model far-Left utopia is that this week the encampment has
erected a large border wall after the city announced authorities plan on clearing the area.

Insanity Wrap needs to know: What do you call someone who votes to #DefundThePolice but then dials 911 to report a crime that they want to legalize?
Answer: You call her Lisa Herbold, and of course she has a seat on the Seattle City Council.
Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap:
Steve Schmidt, practicing Democrat, is more wrong than you’ll ever know
Now it’s disgraced former Congresscritter Katie Hill demanding “you f-kers” show more unity
Paris government hires too many women, gets fined
And so much more.

You may recall the Seattle Autonomous Zone, known as the CHAZ. The police went into there after two months and cleared it out, after much stalling and pandering by the Mayor, Jenny Durkan. But not before multiple people were shot and killed in the area.
Portland then tried to copy it recently and created an autonomous zone around a house where Antifa was trying to occupy to prevent a family from being evicted from a property that had been sold two years ago. The obstructions and barriers that they created in the street in the surrounding blocks were largely cleared out. But reports indicate the family and the Antifa folks are still occupying the property.
WATCH: Antifa Enforce Autonomous Zone Ahead of Seattle Homeless Camp Sweep

Videos tweeted by a Seattle journalist shows the fortification of a homeless camp ahead of a police sweep scheduled for Wednesday. One of the videos show Antifa members wearing black bloc chasing the camera crew from the area.
“Cal Anderson (Park) used to be one of the Crown Jewels of Seattle,” KOMO journalist Jonathan Choe tweeted. “This is what it looks like now. On the eve of an anticipated sweep, neighbors and business owners remain cautiously optimistic, because they have seen this play out before with the same results.”
