4th Congressional District Candidate and Trump endorsed Republican Amanda McKinney gathered a crowd of 20 tonight in the basement of East Wenatchee’s Bethel Baptist Church. I was the only reporter there and will have coverage of that out soon.
I covered the last “No Kings” protest and ballot party in traditionally-red #Wenatchee, Washington yesterday and asked folks if they think we’re on the path to fascism and if @realDonaldTrump will try to stage another coup if MAGA loses in November. open.substack.com/pub/domini…
I was the only reporter at Memorial Park in #Wenatchee during the last No Kings protest ahead of the midterm elections today. Someone brought print outs instructing folks to write in Grace City Church Pastor Josh McPherson for Chelan County coroner as a gag.
Newly released body cam footage shows the arrest of the man charged with starting the deadly Chelan Hills Fire this summer. I got the footage via public records request and the whole video is in my latest here: open.substack.com/pub/domini…
Democrat Stacy Willoughby called former Grace City Church member and current 12th District Rep. Brian Burnett out after his answer to a question about what he would do to protect the LGBTQ community Tuesday. I was the only reporter to cover the event: open.substack.com/pub/domini…
I’m the only reporter attending tonight’s 12th District candidates forum at Wenatchee Valley College, and candidate Stacy Willoughby just went after incumbent Republican Brian Burnett over a question about how they would protect the LGBTQ community. She called his answer “fake.”
The local paper decided not to host candidate forums this year so I organized one myself. Local elections are important and we can’t let a failing media establishment keep us from hearing what people running to make decisions for us have to say. dominickb.substack.com/p/che…
It was my wife’s birthday this weekend, so I did filet mignon with Chimichurri sauce, roasted acorn squash with butter and brown sugar and asparagus.
Leaders in Battle Ground, Washington decided to institute a pre-meeting prayer, overriding the objections of citizens who argued that the separation of church and state is fundamental to American society. Then this happened. open.substack.com/pub/domini…
Grace City Church founder Josh McPherson has found himself in the crosshairs of Christian podcasters like @reachjulieroys this week for his bizarre primer on how to avoid accountability as a megachurch pastor. I break down his 15-point plan in my latest: open.substack.com/pub/domini…

"Monarchy, not democracy." That's how one pastor describes church leadership — the vision comes from him, the team confirms it, and nobody takes a poll.
But Acts 2 says the Spirit was poured out on all people. Sons and daughters. Young and old. Not just the guy with the title.
When this Seattle Times reporter called me and asked if I think Grace City Church is a political liability to Republicans affiliated with it in the region I said “absolutely.” Looks like Mike Steele and Brian Burnett agree. seattletimes.com/seattle-new…

Texas prisons showed what happens when independent journalism is replaced by propaganda.
Now the same thing is happening to Stars and Stripes.

Starting a new series call “A Book & A Bite” to share some of my favorite reads and recipes and in this first installment it’s crab and corn chowder and a book about real deal journalists who made fascists cry like babies. open.substack.com/pub/domini…
Three men affiliated with Grace City Church are awaiting trials in Chelan County for alleged sex crimes, including the rape of minors, and today I’m filing an update about the status of those cases. open.substack.com/pub/domini…

FTR @DBonny has covered the shenanigans of #joshmcpherson for a long time so go educate yourself about him, his church, & his ties to Doug Wilson. You can’t say you weren’t warned. dominickb.substack.com/p/the…

The @IdahoStatesman newsroom was gutted today by @mcclatchy - a gross, gutless company that sold its soul more than a decade ago. Today, whether you read the paper or not, it's BEYOND SAD!
Statesman sports staff down to one?
Good people losing jobs!
Statesman future ... AI scary!
Our community pays the price!
“Death of the Pastor’s Wife” has been No. 1 on @netflix for two weeks and in my latest interview I speak with producer Dana Johnston about how she found the story and why she’s passionate about giving women the tools to fight back against coercive control. open.substack.com/pub/domini…
