Kincaid’s Statement on Antisemitic Attack Against Jewish Student in Seattle

This is a deeply disturbing case of antisemitism targeting a 15 year old Jewish girl at her high school in Seattle. This is racism. This is hate. This is evil.

What the other students did to her is unconscionable and so is the failure of the school system to protect her. I call upon the Mayor of Seattle, the Governor of Washington, the State Attorney General, and all city, state, and federal representatives to condemn this act without hesitation. I urge them to fully investigate the students and staff involved, and to offer their unwavering support to the victim and her family.

The people of Seattle and the entire state of Washington should be horrified that this happened. We should be embarrassed. We should be ashamed.

There is an infection of evil spreading in our country, and this case is one of the most chilling symptoms. I fear what the students who committed this act may be capable of as adults if this hatred is left unchecked.

Case Outline: Antisemitism at Nathan Hale High School

Incident & Timeline

Target: M.K.L., a 15-year-old freshman at Seattle’s Nathan Hale High School, during the 2023–24 school year following the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack .
Harassment included daily antisemitic slurs (“I hate Jews,” “Hitler’s plan should have worked”), swastikas on school property, online harassment via TikTok/Instagram, and physical intimidation (spitting, threats to “kill yourself”) .

Escalation and Safety Threat

On May 22, 2024, around 20 students chased M.K.L. through the school. A teacher locked her in a classroom. Those students “banged on and rattled the door” while shouting antisemitic threats and calling her out to assault her .
M.K.L. believed her life was in danger and refused to return to campus; ultimately, her family withdrew her from school for safety .

School’s Reaction and Alleged Inaction

The student’s family repeatedly reported incidents to the Principal (Dr. William Jackson) and Vice Principal (Makela Steward‑Monroe), but they allegedly failed to investigate, discipline, or publicly address the pattern of harassment .
School officials reportedly refused to preserve or release surveillance footage, even though they had used it internally raising concerns of deliberate deletion .

Legal Claims & Impact

The family filed a federal civil rights lawsuit (June 2025) under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and related Washington state laws, accusing Seattle Public Schools of negligence, intentional infliction of emotional distress, failure to supervise/training, and discrimination .
M.K.L. suffers ongoing PTSD-like symptoms nightmares, flashbacks, anxiety and missed the last weeks of school. She later transferred to a new school with a healthier atmosphere .

Institutional & Community Response

Seattle Public Schools has expressed commitment to reviewing the allegations and reaffirmed that it does not tolerate discrimination .
Community groups, including the Jewish Community Relations Council and Project Shema, had intervened earlier in 2024 to provide anti-bias training and raise concerns yet the lawsuit argues systemic failures persisted .

Kincaid's statement on Olympus Spa " Olympus Spa Is the Hill I'm Willing to Die On "

Let’s save Olympus Spa. I was truly shocked when I learned about the injustice that happened to Olympus Spa in Lynnwood. Honestly. I kept thinking WTF over and over again. Why? How? How is something like this even possible? At first, I thought this insanity would never hold up in court. I thought, “No way the people of Washington voted for this.” And I was right they didn’t . The voters didn’t decide this. The state legislature did. They passed a law saying that a biological man yes, even a man with male genitalia could put on a wig and a dress, and the state would declare him legally a woman . They would give him a new driver’s license with an “F” on it. And then they’d turn to places like Olympus Spa , a women only business where patrons are nude, and say: “You have to let him in. Or we’ll sue you.” It didn’t matter that female customers were uncomfortable being naked around men. It didn’t matter that this violated the Christian beliefs of a Korean-owned ...

Kincaid’s statement on Microsoft job cuts

A few words on the recent Microsoft job cuts. Back in the old days, as they say, if you spoke out against a major employer, people would warn you,“Be careful this is a company town.” Well, Washington today is essentially a company state. Taking on Microsoft head on would be political suicide. Let me be clear. I am not attacking Microsoft, and I am not trying to start a war with them. But I do think it’s worth re-examining some of their decisions. For example, Microsoft has spent roughly $170 billion on stock buybacks over the past 10 years. That’s not unusual for large corporations, but instead of artificially inflating its own share price, some of that money could have been used for real investments investments in people, in innovation, in the communities that make Microsoft possible. We should also re-examine the H-1B visa program. Companies claim America doesn’t have enough skilled workers to fill key roles. Others say we do, but that companies prefer to hire from oversea...

Proposal: No Federal Income Tax for Persons Earning $61,000 or Less

No Federal Income Tax and Tax Filing for People Earning 61,000 or Less Summary This proposal would eliminate federal individual income tax liability for people earning $61,000 or less in total wage income, simplifying the tax system for tens of millions of working Americans while having minimal impact on federal revenue. So those people making about 29.33 an hour and under. Would pay zero federal income tax . And would not be required to file a tax return every year. Payroll taxes would still be taken out of paychecks . For example Social Security and Medicare . And that's it no federal tax taken out of paychecks. Rationale Based on IRS data from the past decade (2013–2022), households earning $61,000 or less make up approximately 50–60% of all U.S. tax filers. This group contributes only 2–3% of all federal individual income tax revenue, equal to $53–$79 billion per year, depending on the year. That amount is a rounding error in the Department of Defense. ...

KINCAID Exploratory Committee

Announcing Exploratory Committee for Washington’s 1st Congressional District Today, I am announcing the formation of an exploratory committee to run for Congress in Washington’s 1st District. I am a Democrat and if I run, I will likely be challenging fellow Democrat, Representative Suzan DelBene, who has held this seat for over 12 years. The state of Washington ranks as one of the worst states to retire in. One major reason is affordability. But that won’t be a problem for Representative DelBene because like so many politicians, her net worth has skyrocketed during her time in office. In fact, according to Quiver Quantitative, it has more than doubled from $60 million to $126.34 million. That may sound shocking, but it’s not unusual. More than half of all members of Congress are millionaires. And among the top 10 wealthiest members, Suzan DelBene is number eight. Let me be clear: I’m not attacking people for being rich. I’d love to be rich. I have no doubt that being rich is fant...

Kincaid Gun Control Policy

I feel there has been a big whole in the debate on gun control policy. I feel that the focus has been on laws that will do nothing. To protect people from the daily street crime that is happening. They has never been a focus on stolen handguns. And on preventing guns from getting stolen. As you know. Home invasions and car break ins happen every day. And many times this results in guns being stolen. A criminal should not be able to simply break a glass window. And then walk away with a bag full of guns. In a matter of minutes. There is no federal law requiring the secured storage of guns. A child safety lock comes with a gun. But there is no real requirement that you use it. And that doesn’t prevent a gun from being stolen. Like a lock box or safe would. A few states have laws requiring the safe storage of guns. But most do not. So right now. Preventing someone from just leaving their gun. In the glove box of their car. And if that gun is ...

Shine a light on child marriage in America

"In the absence of light, darkness prevails" is a quote from the first Hellboy movie. It came out in 2004. For some reason, that line has always stuck with me. When it comes to darkness or evil. It is profoundly true. When it comes to child marriage. Most people think it is something that only happens in foreign countries. Most people have no idea that it happens in America. In 2019, Brazil banned child marriage for those under 16. And recently, Colombia made the minimum age to marry 18 with no exceptions for pregnancy or parental consent. America needs to catch up with Colombia and the rest of the world. As of 2025, only about a dozen states have banned child marriage outright (18 with no exceptions). In many other states, minors as young as 16, 15, or even 14 can still marry under certain circumstances. Some common exceptions that allow child marriage are parental consent. Judicial approval (the judge can waive the age requirement). Pregnancy exceptions (some states al...

Healthcare Policy - Proposal for Universal Healthcare Beta Test

A Real-World Proposal for Universal Healthcare: Phase-by-Phase Before a tech company launches a new product, they beta test it. Before a car hits the road, it goes through years of prototyping and testing. But when it comes to healthcare, we act like our only option is to either leave everything broken or bulldoze the entire system overnight. That’s why every push for Medicare for All has failed. It’s not that the idea is wrong. It’s that the rollout has never been realistic. Bernie Sanders and others have introduced Medicare for All legislation twelve times since 2003. And every single time it dies in committee. It never even makes it to a vote. Not even when Democrats controlled the House, the Senate, and the White House did it move forward. That should tell us something. It’s not about the idea, it’s about the approach. That’s why we need a new strategy. A practical, testable, step-by-step strategy. And that’s exactly what the Universal Healthcare Beta Test is...

Long history of failure to protect women from sexual assault at Peace Corps

Proposal to Sunset the Peace Corps and Redirect Funding to the Universal Pilot Health Plan Executive Summary This proposal recommends the complete shutdown of the Peace Corps and the permanent redirection of its funding to support the Universal Pilot Health Plan. The Peace Corps has suffered from decades of systemic failure to protect its female volunteers from sexual assault. Despite legislative efforts, including the Kate Puzey Act of 2011, internal reforms have failed to produce transparency, accountability, or meaningful protection for vulnerable service members. This is not merely a failure of policy it is a moral failure of the institution. We cannot tolerate government inaction when it comes to sexual violence. The Peace Corps has lost the trust of the public and of the volunteers it claims to serve. It is time to shut it down. I. Justification for Dissolution A. Systemic and Ongoing Failure Over 350 rapes and attempted rapes have been re...

Kincaid Immigration Policy

A Real Discussion On Immigration This nation has never had a real conversation about immigration. Not the conversation we need , the one that asks how we got here, why tensions are rising, and what kind of society we want to build. Instead, we get sound bites and photo ops. Politicians from both parties offer slogans, not solutions. They tell us, “these are jobs Americans won’t do,” and that “we need immigrants to keep prices low.” That’s the full extent of the conversation. But it’s not honest and it’s not enough. Here’s the truth. Today in America, 42% of our agricultural workers are undocumented immigrants. So are 23% of construction workers. This isn’t a system built on fairness it’s one built on exploitation. We have created an economy that depends on people who live in the shadows. A system where millions are essential ...
