🧵A COORDINATED HIT This is Ashley Nerbovig, a writer at The Stranger who recently wrote a hit piece on @choeshow According to local reporting at the time the former Montana TV news reporter was arrested on a felony burglary charge in 2022.

According to charging documents, the former NBC affiliate employee broke into her ex-boyfriend's house and tried to steal the dog that the two had previously shared. Charges were eventually dismissed https://montanatalks.com/montana-tv-political-reporter-arrested-on-burglary-charge/

This appears to be part of a coordinated effort to try and stop Choe from reporting. Except so far The Stranger is the only one interested in the story of an unhinged pro-Hamas/Antifa activist who is mad Choe covers their rallies for terrorists

LOOKING FORWARD TO THE HIT PIECE: This evening, a reporter with The Stranger blog reached out to me for comment regarding an incident last month where I had to physically defend myself against FAR-LEFT activist Gabriel Jones. This well known agitator harassed me and assaulted me at Westlake Park during a pro-Palestine protest. But Jones is now claiming to be a victim and filed a "temporary protection order" against me. The case has also been referred to the Seattle City Attorney's Office for possible charges. With that said, I firmly stand by my side of the story and the truth will prevail. This is how the militant activists are trying to silence my reporting. If it gets to that point, I look forward to my day in court and will be fighting all the way. The outcome could set a precedent for protest coverage in this region. Stay tuned. #Seattle

According to Choe, Gabriel Jones "harassed me with a sign, accosted me, then assaulted me from behind at a pro-Palestine rally in Westlake Park last month. I defended myself and immediately left the scene."

FAR-LEFT INTIMIDATION: Wednesday evening, an officer came to my house and handed me a "temporary protection order" filed by Gabriel Jones. He's the kid who harassed me with a sign, accosted me, then assaulted me from behind at a pro-Palestine rally in Westlake Park last month. I defended myself and immediately left the scene. In fact this all happened in front of several officers. If I committed a crime, I think I would have been arrested immediately. We parted ways and moved on. Today, he's now accusing me of assaulting him and is clearly lying in his narrative. He literally says in the police report, "With his consent I followed him." Why the heck would I give someone consent to follow me and harass me? Do you think Jones actually asked for my permission? He was trying to disrupt my coverage all day! Ladies and gentlemen, this is the FAR-LEFT playbook on full display. They incite and instigate, and when you defend yourself, they claim to be the victim. They're trying to trap me. This is exactly what law enforcement officers face during protests as they deal with ANTIFA and other militant activists. When cops respond to the abuse and violence thrown their way, they end up facing multimillion dollar lawsuits because groups like the National Lawyer's Guild and ACLU are on scene watching and pushing a one sided narrative. VIDEO EVIDENCE: On October 14, you can clearly see Jones identifies me in the crowd and starts to yell my name like some giddy kid. I didn't want to have anything to do with him. Jones is the one following me as I walk away. He never asks for my "consent" and continues to harass me in Westlake Park. With my back turned, he forcefully pushes me to the point where my shoe comes off. This is all on him. And now he claims to be the victim? In closing, many of you know I take risks to spotlight the truth and hold public officials accountable. I've been assaulted several times on the job and remain a target. I know these people want to shut me down because my work continues to expose their bad behavior and hypocrisy. I want to stay and fight. But I am realizing more than ever, I can't do this alone.

I am also considering more security options in the field. At the end of the day, I know the truth is on my side. And thank you to all of you who continue to believe in me and support my work. #Seattle

HOT TAKE: We shall see what the judge has to say about the "temporary protection order." Prior to this incident, I did not know Jones' name. I think it's time to seriously look into my own rights and protections against these people. #Seattle https://t.co/5EnsRg8fuI

The Stranger often does hit pieces on people they disagree with. When I was running for office in 2019, they were pretty obsessed with me. So much so that they mocked antisemitic death threats made against my family https://t.co/objrOlnmZk

@thehoffather - Ari Hoffman

Now they seem to be obsessed with defending Hamas. They appear to be laser-focused on supporting terrorists while demonizing the Jewish state. This is no surprise given their track record. They previously published a cover with the title "The Jewish Problem" with a Star of David

@thehoffather - Ari Hoffman

The simple truth is they don't like Choe's coverage which exposes the insanity of the far-left activists people who read The Stranger, and that's why they are trying to shut him up Its the same as recent attempts to silence others for exposing radicals https://t.co/MYbR1dzeq0

🧵DEFENDERS OF TERRORISTS The Council on American Islamic Relations @CAIRNational has a long history of hating Jews & America The local branch of the pro-Hamas org @CAIRWashington is trying to intimidate those who share statements that terrorist supporters post online themselves https://t.co/D0mZaoJ3tX
