White House Counsel Will Scharf sends a characteristically measured and thoughtful letter to incoming House Oversight Chair Robert Garcia. Garcia has made several outlandish statements that extend beyond the traditional oversight role. And Scharf explains the problem with that

EXCLUSIVE: A former staffer for a consultant who worked on Washington Attorney General Nick Brown’s campaign was arrested after allegedly breaking into Brown's home. Brown’s representative, attorney David A. Perez, confirmed the June break-in and said the suspect was experiencing a mental health crisis. "The Attorney General’s home was broken into while he and his family were not there. When he returned home with his children, there was a sign of a break-in, and he called 911. Police responded and arrested someone who was experiencing a mental health crisis. That person was the former staffer of a consultant who worked on the Attorney General’s campaign." He declined further comment on Brown’s security. According to SPD records and body-camera footage obtained by The Ari Hoffman Show: • On June 12, Brown returned home with his children, heard glass breaking or falling from a broken window, and he and his family exited the home. He then checked his security footage, allegedly recognized Elizabeth Lowell Sibley Bowditch, and called 911. • Officers allegedly found Bowditch, then 22, upstairs in a bed under the covers. One officer described her as appearing to hide; another described her as asleep. • “I’m not resisting, I’m not resisting,” she can be heard saying during her arrest. As she is being led to the police car, she can be heard saying, "He's been in my house." • An officer says, “She broke into the attorney general’s home.” Officers found 1 half-full bottle of wine, 1 half-full bottle of bourbon, and pills in her bag. The records do not establish whether she was intoxicated. • Brown told police she had been let go from her position with the Tracy Newman Company approximately two months earlier. He said she had mental health issues, had been telling people she was in love with him, and had sent him strange texts that he did not answer. According to the police report, Brown "stated that he was not in any kind of dating relationship with Bowditch." • Police arrested her without incident. Nothing was reported stolen; the documented damage was the broken rear-door glass. • Police objected to her release, citing escalating behavior and what they described as stalking behavior. • She was booked for investigation of burglary and released the following evening. A detective concluded there was insufficient evidence of intent to commit a crime against a person or property inside the home to meet residential-burglary filing standards. He referred the case to Seattle city prosecutors for consideration of criminal trespass and property destruction charges. The Seattle City Attorney's Office said in a statement, "This matter is under review by CAO prosecutors." Video redacted and blurred by SPD I have removed portions of the video for security concerns

AG Nick Brown is co-leading a multistate coalition urging Congress to ensure appropriate environmental and public health protections are included in the permitting reform bill currently under consideration. “Federal lawmakers are rushing through this process, jeopardizing key environmental safeguards and putting Washington’s rivers, lakes, and coastline at risk,” Brown said. “We urge Congress to slow down this process to allow for more input from states, including Washington, and avoid weakening long-standing federal protections like the Clean Water Act.” The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026 aims to streamline the process for approving energy projects. However, in a letter to congressional leaders, Brown and the coalition argue the bill in its current form contains problematic provisions that invite abuse by polluting industries and impinge on state and tribal sovereignty.

Insane exchange. Newly elected Democrat Adam Hamawy refuses to call Iran an adversary. BROWN: Do you see Iran as the adversary? HAMAWY: "We pushed them into a fight" BROWN: But are they the adversary? HAMAWY: "We should be making friends" BROWN: They've been saying "death to America" for decades HAMAWY: "We've been saying 'death to Iran'" BROWN: They've killed a lot of Americans HAMAWY: "And we've killed a lot of them" BROWN: So you don't see Iran as an adversary? HAMAWY: "I see that we are pushing Iran into a fight"

The @USMC turns 251 years old today. These brave men and women defend our country with distinction — safeguarding U.S. diplomatic missions abroad, protecting American personnel in harm’s way, and defending America’s interests across the globe. Semper Fidelis, Marines.

Let’s cap credit card rates at 10%. Take action on affordable housing. Protect rural hospitals. End price gouging. Democrats have the bills ready. @SenWarren says now it’s up to Trump to work with us and get things done.

NEW: In first Senate floor remarks since Dems retook both chambers of Congress last week, Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says "Americans pulverized the red wall", and were sick of "being told to suck it up for $4 gas for a war they never wanted." Schumer says "The American people gave us our marching orders...and we are going to get results with or without Republicans...I'm not holding my breath that they learned their lesson." Schumer then called for the impeachment of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth..."The Senate needs to put him on trial so we can remove him." He also blasted President Trump's decision to name Stephen Miller as his White House Chief of Staff, calling Miller an "incompetent, dangerous, brutally nasty person."

Trump endorses an amnesty deal with Democrats, saying immigration maximalists are on the “pretty far right” and suggesting that illegals who have been in the US for 10-15 years should have an opportunity to stay. Follow: @AFpost

Q: You think your deportation policy went too far? Trump: I think it might be too tough.

This is the ONLY energy I want to see when dealing with Jew haters.

Weekend call to action. Here's an email sent to me by a frustrated Lakeside High School parent. Weird that the current governor won't support Lakeside HS's effort to win a contest for a private, non-taxpayer-funded grant to improve its athletic facilities. Maybe he's pouting about I-638 passing? Anyway, WE ALL can help. Read the email below. Then click on this link and vote to support this WA public HS win a private award to fix its field and track: fn5gl.t-mobile.com/vote/lake… The contest ends tomorrow (Nov 8). Thanks.
