A citizen group has launched a bid to recall Gov. Jay Inslee, levying a series of accusations against the governor regarding his handling of the pandemic over the last year.

Recall campaign, Kshama Sawant dig in for lengthy battle

The group included five charges in its recall filing, alleging the following:

That Inslee violated religious freedoms in restricting large gatherings

That the rights of residential landlords were infringed upon by the state’s eviction moratorium

That he overstepped his authority by suspending the Open Public Meetings Act

That he violated state law by suspending large gatherings

That he failed to adequately demonstrate a “just cause” for issuing proclamations related to Washington’s declared state of emergency

The recall petition still requires court approval to move forward. Should it get that approval, the group behind the effort estimates that it will need roughly 1.5 million certified signatures to get the recall on the ballot.

Inslee 'won' reelection in 2020 [through mail-in voting and rigging, with help from Soros-backed Secretary of State Kim Wyman], 'defeating' Republican challenger Loren Culp 56% to 43%, marking his largest ever margin of victory as governor. Culp garnered just over 1.7 million votes.

This will mark the second attempt to recall Inslee in recent years. In 2019, Arthur West submitted a recall filing alleging that Inslee “was absent from Washington too frequently” while campaigning for president, and “failed to notify the lieutenant governor of these absences.” West also claimed that the governor had “improperly campaigned for a ballot initiative.”

A Thurston County court struck down that petition, finding the charges to be “legally and factually insufficient to submit to voters.” The Washington Supreme Court affirmed that decision, ruling that “West’s petition may have stated reasons to disagree with Governor Inslee, but they were not proper reasons to support a recall.”

This is also the latest in a series of high-profile recall efforts in Washington over the last year-plus, including failed efforts to remove Attorney General Bob Ferguson, Snohomish County Sheriff Adam Fortney, Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan, and Thurston County Sheriff John Snaza. A recall against Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant is currently gathering signatures in hopes of getting on the ballot.

in order to have a successful recall petition, you have to prove violation of oath of office. or malfeasance.

A politician, or public official can commit a violation of their oath of office by not upholding the law through negligence, violating the US Constitution and all its amendments (suppressing free speech, infringing on the 2nd amendment, etc), as well as color of law. In Washington state, doing so would be considered official misconduct. and that would be grounds for a recall.

so would be using fraudulent test results as an excuse to continue a lockdown of the entire state.

so would allowing a known terrorist group to infiltrate and take over a block in Seattle for 6 weeks and do nothing about it when National Guard assistance was offered.

I'd post more info, but given the absolute sorry state that QResearch has been as of late, it seems I'd be better off keeping quiet.
