This article is compliments of the Idaho Freedom Foundation “Idaho was DOGE before DOGE was cool.” That was Gov. Little yesterday in his State of the State address, and subsequent press conference, invoking the now “infamous” DOGE, the Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy led Department of Government Efficiency. Let’s give the governor his due on […]
Dear Friends, 2024 was a great year for the Office of the Attorney General and I want to share some of the accomplishments we have delivered for the people of Idaho over the last year. Every day brings a new and interesting challenge, and the diversity and complexity of issues can be staggering. But regardless […]
I have written several articles locally on school choice in North Idaho; The CDA Press had another column by the esteemed Jim Jones who, in his own mind, is an expert on everything. He is the same person four years ago said that Ivermectin was just “horse paste” in a column. Of course we know […]
I have been a big admirer of Peggy Noonan’s since the time she was writing speeches for Ronald Reagan. We share a common Christian-Catholic faith that serves as a common ground for trying to understand each other’s philosophies of life and politics—which many times differ from each other. In my opinion she has the heart […]
As America is about to turn the page on four years of anarchy and chaos, we should all reflect back to the 2020 election when 81 million Americans voted to elect Joesph Biden the leader of our nation. I believe most of us would agree that this was the biggest mistake in the history of […]
A Conversation with Dorothy Moon & Tea Party Bob LISTEN HERE: IdahoRadio.com When Dorothy Moon checks her mail, it requires a 26-mile round trip from her home in the heart of Idaho’s Sawtooth region. As Idaho’s GOP chairwoman describes her surroundings in Custer County, where 97% of land falls under federal control, she isn’t speaking as […]
America is a land of immigrants, which isn’t unique as this can be said about virtually every nation. Unless your ZIP Code is The Garden of Eden, we are all either immigrants or descended from immigrants. Beginning with the first humans, we have roamed the entire planet and now, facilitated by our technology, occupy every […]

This event brings together members of the State Central Committee (SCC), including the County Chair, State Committeeman, State Committeewoman, State Youth Committeeman, the Executive Board, and Legislative District Chairs, […]
In 1862 during the height of our Civil War, Abraham Lincoln signed into The US Code several pieces of legislation that impacted the culture and the tribalism that is currently today very much a part of the American experience and our politics. The Homestead Act(s) and the Land Grant Morrill Act that created State Universities […]
Donald Trump completed the greatest political comeback in American history when he won both the popular vote and the Electoral College vote last November. I think the well-organized weaponization of our legal system against him, the centralized control of the media from the highest levels of government—let’s just say collusion, and the demonization and characterization […]
Before the State of The State Address next week, I would like to offer my thanks to Governor Brad Little for placing Alex Adams as the new head of the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare. When I look up the definition of LEVITHEAN, it sends me to the Web page of the Idaho Department […]
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 […]
