‘Pure rumor’: Gov. Jay Inslee denies alleged Idaho property purchase

(The Center Square) – Gov. Jay Inslee’s office has officially denied an alleged property purchase made in Idaho to be used for “retirement.”

In a post on X, the Idaho Tribune wrote that “we have begun hearing rumors that Washington Governor Jay Inslee has acquired a “retirement” property in Hayden Lake, Idaho. Is Governor Inslee, the man who presided over the vaccinations, the disastrous Antifa riots, and the anarchist zones like CHOP, welcome in Idaho?”
