Among the chairpersons of these evenings was Clint Didier of Franklin County, who competed with Newhouse twice. Newhouse was one of 10 Republicans who voted for impeachment. He said he had no intention of resigning.

The public was asked to weigh how to deal with flooding in the Leavenworth Ski Mountain Basin area. GWATA is planning a virtual STEM showcase, which has been a long time, but as of yesterday, all grades in Wenatchee School District have returned to face-to-face classes.

The head of the Ministry of Natural Resources is pushing the legislature to enact bills to create better funds for wildfire responses. One of the bills requires cooperation between DNR and utility companies. The infrastructure of the latter may be damaged in the fire, and sometimes even It contributed to the fire.

Next is your attention to the local weather forecast, followed by this week's sports report with Eric Granstrom, and the subsequent NCWLIFE evening news.

The Seahawks plan to hire Shane Waldron, the coordinator of the Los Angeles Rams, as their new offensive coordinator.

ESPN's Adam Shefter said Seattle will hire Waldron to replace Brian Schottenheimer when he is under 3 years old.

Earlier this month, the Seahawks season ended in two ways.

Waldron has spent seven seasons as an assistant in the NFL, but according to Shefter, he has never served in Washington or Los Angeles during Sean McVay's tenure.

According to reports, the Seahawks are also interested in Buffalo's quarterback coach Ken Dorsey and New Orleans' Joe Lombard. These two individuals acted as the leader and the Lions offense coordinator respectively.

Waldron is a native of Portland. He graduated from Tufts University in 2002. He was a tenacious partner and an old madman at the time.

After allegedly assaulting his girlfriend, offensive informant Chad Wheeler (Chad Wheeler) faced felony first-degree domestic violence assault in Kent, illegal imprisonment for domestic violence and resistance to arrest charges.

According to court documents, the prosecutor said that Wheeler viciously attacked the victim’s bedroom, sometimes strangling her with both hands until she lost consciousness. According to reports, she texted friends, family and Wheeler's father to call 911, and the police were forced to enter the country after hearing her screams. An official tried to conquer Wheeler with Taser, "with little success."

Wheeler was released on bail of $400,000 on Tuesday, and an arraignment hearing was held on February 9.

.

The team issued a statement this week saying that Seahawks was saddened by Chad Wheeler’s new details and strongly condemned such domestic violence. Our thoughts and support come from the victims. Chad is a free agent and no longer works with the team, ending the offer. If you encounter domestic violence, please call 1-800-799-7233, and the team will continue to provide a national domestic violence hotline.
