This is the third and last part of the series on the Proper Role of Local Governments. Judges County Judges can be elected or appointed. I have seen both. It varies from state to state, and county to county. In Idaho, County judges are appointed. Nonetheless, the function of judges is clear: adjudication over cases […]
Why do you suppose the First Amendment says, “Congress shall make no law…” while the Second Amendment says, “shall not be infringed”? Clearly, there is a difference in these statements. One limits a specific entity of government while the other is a blanket and all-encompassing statement. The right to keep and bear arms as recognized […]
Across America people are at each other’s throats, divided, with what appears to be little hope of coming together on the importance of retaining a bonded society. Once there was a clear understanding of what America stood for, the roots upon which it was founded. Slowly those roots of our society have been chipped away […]
America was founded by religious Christians who believed the Bible and followed it in their daily lives. We have gradually reached the point where Christianity has no place in public discourse. American culture is gradually being destroyed by left wing socialist ideas, and a foreign invasion that is working against everything that we hold dear. […]
As the United Nations (UN) and World Economic Forum (WEF) continue to chip away on getting people to move into cities and live in stacked, small apartments, the end goal is to limit the ability to move about freely and have full surveillance over them. Cities are being designed to provide everything one needs within a 15″ walk. […]
Just like Event 201, the corona virus exercise held two months prior to the corona virus pandemic, another exercise held October 23, 2022, again sponsored by Bill Gates and Johns Hopkins, was held in Brussels, Belgium, called the “Catastrophic Contagion”. This exercise is the fifth in creating a ruthless plan to bring fear and tyranny […]
Jane and I grew up together in Montana and married just out of high school and now have four married children, 24 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren. What has become especially more difficult is to relate to our grandchildren is what it was like to grow up in America in the 50’s and 60’s. Nearly […]
Dear Editor, Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you. So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and […]
Dear Editor What is the proper role of a local government? A quick review of the 9th and 10th Amendments reveals that the States and the People have most of the powers. The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people (9th Amendment) […]
81 years ago, today Japan attacked our navy at Pearl Harbor. Thousands of servicemen lost their lives. Even today there are somewhat wild theories as to why Japan did so. I just read in the paper that Congress has passed a law that prevents the railroads from striking. A railroad strike would have been devastating, […]
In its court ruling on Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court did not completely resolve the implications of that decades-old case. The issue of abortion clearly divides our nation. But it doesn’t need to, since there is only one valid position based on the application of two irrefutable standards. The U.S. Constitution is the highest […]
During the November Liberty Dinner in Pocatello, there was a comment on how little participation there was in public forums. I have observed this to be true in City Council meetings, County meetings, School Board meetings, and many others. Since the mid-term elections are concluded, I heard many ask the question, “What is the Price […]
