As many of our readers know I am a political neophyte. I didn’t really concern myself with the world of politics beyond my dining room table or outside the operating room until I retired from the practice of surgery and medicine—Socrates told us there is politics in everything we do. Over the years I have […]
For many years I have personally been opposed to H1B visas primarily because of the games that big corporations play using a system that is meant to be means to benefit our country’s economy and instead turn it into a way for them to make more profits with lower cost wages. Years ago, I wrote […]

I had the privilege of joining fellow Idahoans at Turning Point’s 2024 AmericaFest (AmFest), an incredible event that united over 20,000 patriots. Once again, it proved why it stands as the largest conservative movement in America. For young adults eager to engage in […]

We are now surrounded by the beautiful decorations of the yuletide season, along with the stress – the frantic shopping, the wrapping, the baking and cooking, the social gatherings, and all the exhausting obligations we place on ourselves. Most of […]
We must surely be a country loved by God as we have endured four long years of persecution by a government that we voted into office. There are those who have tried to destroy this great republic with more negativity than I have ever witnessed in my 79 years on this earth and it is […]

Most people have heard about the Electoral College, with the path to 270, and have heard pundits praise and bemoan its existence. But how does it all work and how does someone become an elector? The […]
Dear Friends, I’m happy to share that earlier this month, in Texas Top Cop Shop v. Garland, a federal court in Texas issued a nationwide preliminary injunction against the Corporate Transparency Act, or CTA. Idaho joined an amicus brief with 21 other states defending the court’s decision. Ostensibly written to combat money laundering, the CTA […]
From 1789 until the rise of the progressive movement under Woodrow Wilson, Congress adhered to James Madison’s view that the Federal spending power was limited to executing the Constitution’s enumerated powers. From pre-Civil War days bills appropriating aid to education, income support for citizens—except veterans, and grants supporting the poor were rejected by Federal Lawmakers. […]
