Last Saturday, the unthinkable happened. A gunman opened fire on guests and employees of a Twin Falls In-N-Out Burger, as well as a nearby Tesla charging station. Now, three people are dead, many more are injured, and a community has been shaken to its core. Ashley Garibay was just 23 years old. In-N-Out was her […]
Dear Senators and Representatives The tragedy of this past Saturday’s Twin Falls mass shooting is not limited to just the lives lost and the wounded, but to the fact in Idaho with so many of Idaho’s citizens availing themselves of the right to constitutionally carry firearms that more who were there and who witnessed a […]
How will it affect us economically and socially? The intuition is simple: A historic border surge let millions of illegals in, so would deporting them recover the cost? The evidence is not simple. The costs and benefits fall on different governments and different timelines and the real decision was never a straight choice between removal […]
This episode delivers a fast-moving conservative read on the stories shaping Idaho right now, moving from local government accountability to statewide ballot fights before turning to a longer lesson in free-market economics. The through-line is a familiar one for the show: where Idaho’s money, rights, and values are most at stake — and where the […]
The Earth Brokers: Power, Politics and World Development is a book co-authored by Pratap Chatterjee and Matthias Finger, and written in 1994 just after the Rio Summit was held in 1992. It was the “first critical analysis of the Earth Summit and its mission document Agenda 21“. Unfortunately, most countries did not heed the warnings from […]
This summer, Idaho has once again been reminded of the awesome power of wildfire. From the devastating Big Grass Fire in Owyhee County to the fires that have scarred central Idaho in recent years, we have watched homes destroyed, livestock lost, wildlife displaced, and entire communities threatened. Families who have worked the land for generations […]
Anthony Fauci became the public face of America’s COVID response, and for many citizens he also became the face of coercive government. He projected calm certainty, but that calm often masked a deeper problem: the transformation of public health into personal authority, political theater, and institutional self-protection rather than a disciplined application of science and […]
Dear Friends, Last week I toured the newly completed execution chamber at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution (IMSI) in Kuna. I want to thank IDOC Director Bree Derrick and Division of Prisons Chief Liz Neville for taking the time to walk my team and me through the new facility and answer our questions. What struck […]
The honest answer is that it’s an unsettled legal question right now, as the courts have not definitively decided it, and litigation is actively working its way through the system as of 2026. Here’s the underlying legal framework. Flock cameras are nothing more than automated license plate readers (ALPRs). Traditionally, most courts have held there […]
My federal lands management survey is now open, and I want to hear directly from Idahoans. Approximately 62 percent of the land within Idaho’s borders is owned and managed by the federal government, and from 2020 to 2025, nearly 2.7 million of those acres experienced some sort of closure to the public. This extensive federal […]
As we enter the final 100 days before the midterm elections, I find myself both astonished and concerned—not only by how progressive Democrats and Democratic Socialists have shaped the political narrative, but by how effectively they have reshaped the very language through which Americans interpret that narrative. Control of language is control of thought, and […]
The topic of eliminating Property Tax has been brought up. More than one elected official that I respect has raised it. Personally, I like the idea. I like it from the Constitutional and Liberty point of view. The argument is simple and powerful: if our real property can be taxed, then we, the citizens, do […]
