The King County executive just got hired as CEO of Sound Transit with a salary of $450k in an opaque process. He sits on the board of Sound Transit. If you are angry at the cronyism and corruption in the Trump administration remember that this behavior is how it got normalized.

www.kuow.org · King County Executive Dow Constantine nominated to become next Sound Transit CEOKing County Executive Dow Constantine has officially been nominated for a new position of leadership in the Seattle area: Sound Transit CEO.

The story itself is bad: it's basically corruption offering a friend a very influential position affecting us all.

But there a detail in it very puzzling: Johnson faced "financial difficulties" by the end of 2020. The man reportedly is wealthy and as PM was paid handsomely and had basically 0 upkeep costs. Why the heck was he in financial difficulties?
