Washington home buyers are being charged reparations to help first-time homebuyers of color. Governor Jay Inslee’s EV bribe doesn’t do much for the environment. Florida passes bill mandating DNA collection, but does it go too far? More women are freezing their eggs as they wait for Mr. Right.
Student demonstrators show their naivete on foreign affairs. Governor Jay Inslee calls Bob Ferguson ‘brain dead.’ The Seattle Times misspells ‘pedophile.’ The clock is ticking for TikTok.

Comparing Seattle’s CHOP to the wave of college protest zones. Inslee punts on school walkouts. Attorney General candidate Pete Serrano on gun rights. Not even the leftists actually believe housing is a human right. Students and parents protest furries, claim kids are being bitten at school. Huh?

The following remarks were delivered to the Whatcom County Lincoln Day Dinner on March 23, 2024, in Ferndale, Washington.
I struggled with what to talk to you about tonight.
Well, that’s not true. I didn't struggle with what to talk to you about – I struggled with whether I was brave enough to say what I wanted to say.
When I'm invited to speak to groups, I don't want to offend anyone or be too controversial. So, I reached out to a few of your fellow party members to ask whether any topics were off limits or wouldn't go over well with the crowd.
I got some good advice.
Then I decided to ignore that good advice entirely.
Too much is at stake to be polite.
As we sit here tonight, we are in the final battle of a war.
A war that has pit sanity against insanity.
Pragmatism against idealism.
A war that has sacrificed the public good, in favor of a twisted idea of progress.
It's a war that began long before I moved here 15 years ago. It started silently and it was mostly waged in the shadows.
Most of us didn't even realize that a war was being fought. We were too caught up in our own lives and our own problems. ...
During a visit to Eastern Washington, Brandi sat down with Congressman Dan Newhouse (R-WA04) to discuss the fentanyl crisis, fuel costs, border security, Chinese land acquisition, and how he was able to survive his vote to impeach Donald Trump.
The following remarks were delivered to the Kitsap County Lincoln Day Dinner on June 2, 2023, in Bremerton, Washington. They are shared here as prepared and edited for print.
((REMARKS))
It is an honor to be here tonight, especially considering my friend Dori Monson was here last year as your keynote.
Dori was one of the last true government watchdogs in media. He took the responsibility seriously.
He was fierce.
He was fair.
He was unflinching.
He believed that if left to its own devices, government would move further away from the People.
In a lot of ways that’s already happening.
May I propose a toast to our friend Dori, to what he stood for, and to why we’re all here tonight – our shared mission to keep a government of the People, by the People, for the People.
When I’m invited to speak at events like these, there are always a few people in the room who are confused why I’m here. There is certainly a segment of Republicans in Washington who don’t understand why a self-titled moderate independent who has been critical of the former president and his claims of a stolen election would be invited to be a keynote at...

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments today on a case that could help stem the tide of homelessness in West Coast cities and beyond. We dissect a raucous WA GOP convention. Gavin Newsom’s latest political ad is dishonest, even for him. Columbia caves to the mob.
Happy Thursday, gang. A few housekeeping items to attend to:
Nicole and I will see all of you this evening!
