If you’re reading this, then you already know why you should vote no on Proposition 1. This radical initiative would eliminate Idaho’s laws protecting unborn babies, introduce vague terminology regarding “viability” that could potentially allow abortions in the third trimester, no questions asked, and remove legal requirements for parental consent for minor girls. It’s too […]

In these increasingly polarized times, when hateful words and actions have become far too commonplace, it is appropriate to remember experiences that have shaped one’s convictions. Some of the most enduring lessons of my life did not come from a classroom, a political convention, or a newspaper editorial. They came from my Quaker grandparents in […]
I was surprised last week to see several public Facebook posts from Idaho legislative leaders thanking one of the largest health-insurance companies in Idaho for sponsoring their attendance at the Governor’s Cup in Coeur d’Alene. For a brief moment, I thought I was witnessing an unusual act of honesty and transparency. Here, apparently, were politicians […]
Who Will Pay for the Power Upgrade? A conservative doesn’t oppose growth. But a conservative does insist that the people who build private facilities pay their own way instead of handing the bill to the grandma down the road. Drive past Kuna and you can see the future being poured in concrete. Meta is building […]
The core conservative argument is economic and geopolitical. The American Enterprise Institute’s work frames AI primarily as a growth engine. In their analysis of whether AI could cause “explosive” economic growth, scholars like Tamay Besiroglu put meaningful odds-on AI dramatically raising productivity potentially many times the roughly 2% annual growth the U.S. has averaged for […]
Three subjects anchor this episode: the Proposition 1 abortion measure on Idaho’s November ballot, a Charlie Kirk memorial held on the Capitol steps, and a working economics lesson on whether new technology destroys jobs. On Proposition 1, the episode makes the case that the measure would push Idaho’s abortion law past where it stood before […]
In the previous post, Firefighters for 9-11 Truth (FF911Truth) and Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth (ae911), challenged the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) conclusion about what caused the World Trade Center 7 (WTC7) collapse, and the 9/11 Commission Report about the cause of the World Trade Center Twin Towers (WTC) collapse. The rebuttal discussion […]
What is the moral condition of a nation that allows an entire category of its people to be murdered, one by one, without due process? How is that nation affected when, over time, the population loss is 66 million – greater than one-sixth of the country’s current population? Imagine if everywhere you go, one in […]
BOISE, ID — Attorney General Raúl Labrador is defending the fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing of their children, urging the Ninth Circuit to affirm a federal district court ruling against California policies that allow public schools to facilitate a child’s gender identity and social transition and actively conceal it from their parents.

Dear Friends, In 2024, New York passed the Climate Change Superfund Act, claiming that the companies producing America’s oil, natural gas, and coal owed the state $75 billion for fuel they produced between 2000 and 2024, and it passed a law to collect. Idaho joined 21 other states to challenge that law, and a federal […]
Last week, I had the honor of leading Idaho’s delegation to the first-ever Republican Party midterm convention in Dallas, Texas. Speaker after speaker, from President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, told the story of how Republican leadership is […]
