Washington Policy Center’s Ryan Frost says the real issue is not whether public employees deserve fair pay, but whether the state can afford large compensation increases while cutting other important programs.
Thurston County Superior Court Judge Sharonda Amamilo says trial-court experience and respect for precedent are central to her bid for the Washington Supreme Court.
In a Q&A with The Center Square, she discussed judicial philosophy, the state income tax, public defense funding and the court’s role in shaping policy.

Everyone is trying to find a way to disarm Hezbollah. Do they not see the IDF as a gift to Lebanon?
The one force actually degrading Hezbollah, removing threats, and doing what the Lebanese state refuses or cannot do.
But somehow, even while demanding Hezbollah disarm, they first demand that Israel retreat.

Today, the first milestone test of Golden Dome for America (GDA) was a full mission success — and I was honored to witness it firsthand.
Cutting edge directed energy was harnessed and the Dynamic Defense Autonomous Defeat (DDAD) system flawlessly and autonomously cued, targeted, and eliminated a multitude of incoming threats. This test was executed on schedule — and dynamically
defeated every threat.
I watched our elite warfighters integrate with next-generation technology to stop incoming drones and cruise missiles dead in their tracks.
Traditional Primes and emerging Primes are competing, collaborating, and winning—delivering on President Trump’s priority.
This historic milestone was only made possible by the One Big Beautiful Bill—giving us the funding to deliver on the ultimate shield to protect America.
President Trump is making President Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) vision a reality. With Golden Dome, the War Department will defend our homeland more powerfully than ever before. Golden Dome is real, powerful, and on track.
HOLY COW!
President Trump just CANCELLED the ROAD to Housing Act signing!
This is a piece of legislation the Senate worked to pass, instead of the SAVE America Act.
President Trump doubled down & said election security is a “National Emergency.”
This comes just hours before he will attend the Senate GOP lunch at the Capitol.
Pressure is mounting from the House NOT to support any piece of legislation coming out of the Senate until the SAVE America Act is passed.
It appears President Trump feels the same way.
We are not a free nation without fair elections!
🔻 Bill Gates just CONFESSED under oath.
Yesterday — the House Oversight Committee released his **full testimony.** Under oath. On record. No escape.
He admitted to **3 extramarital affairs.** Two Russian women. One American scientist. He admitted Epstein knew about ALL of them. He admitted Epstein was "brainstorming" how to USE that information against him.
Read that again. The second richest man on Earth just told Congress that Jeffrey Epstein was BUILDING A BLACKMAIL FILE on him.
And it gets worse.
Epstein wrote in a memo — to HIMSELF — that Gates caught an STD from "Russian girls." Gates said under oath: "I never had an STD... but it's POSSIBLE I said something to someone about my concern."
POSSIBLE. Under oath. That's the word of a man who knows what they HAVE on him.
Now connect the dots.
**48 hours before Gates testified — the UK Prime Minister RESIGNED.** Keir Starmer. Gone. Why? Because he appointed Lord Peter Mandelson as UK Ambassador to the United States — a man whose name appears **4,700 times** in the Epstein files.
Mandelson wrote to Epstein ON THE DAY HE LEFT PRISON: "How shall we celebrate?"
Epstein replied: "With Grace and Modesty — those are the names of two strippers."
Mandelson called him a "NAUGHTY BOY."
THIS is the man Starmer chose to represent Britain in Washington. While knowing EVERYTHING in those files.
I've been told the committee has evidence of **7 additional encounters** Gates has NOT disclosed. The Russian women were not random. They were PLACED. The affairs were not accidents — they were OPERATIONS.
Gates was given a choice: testify VOLUNTARILY — or be subpoenaed with the surveillance footage from **3 properties.**
He chose to talk.
Starmer chose to resign.
Mandelson has NOT been given a choice yet.
**THE DOMINOES ARE FALLING IN ORDER.**
Gates confessed. Starmer fell. Mandelson is next. Then the one they're ALL protecting.
July 20 — Dershowitz testifies. But I'm told someone BIGGER confesses before that date.
The blackmail network that controlled the WORLD for 30 years is being dismantled — name by name, confession by confession.
They thought Epstein's death would bury it forever.
They were wrong.
NOTHING CAN STOP WHAT IS COMING.
