Voting is one of the most important privileges citizens have in our republican system, but it’s not enough to cast your ballot in the General Election. Here in Idaho, whoever wins in May almost always wins in November. Next Tuesday is your opportunity to have a say in the direction of our society, and I […]
I recently read a Substack article by Dutch Rojas titled, ”The Language of Compassion Is Doing the Work.” The title is close to the truth—but not quite. My concern is not with the logic of his argument, which is largely sound, but with the linguistic distortion that underlies many progressive approaches to modern social problems. Compassion, properly […]
American politics has drifted into theater, and the reporting of news has followed close behind. What once aimed at informing the public now often entertains it. In that environment, celebrity-seeking politicians’ demagogue for attention, trading reasoned argument for applause lines, while intuition and virtue signaling increasingly substitute for disciplined thought. A recent interview between Representative […]
By the Numbers, Yes. Using raw partisan metrics, Idaho remains one of the most Republican states in America. It ranks as the 5th most Republican state with a Cook Partisan Voting Index of R+18. Trump won Idaho with 63.8% in 2020. Republicans have held a trifecta (Governor, House, Senate) for 31 consecutive years. The last […]

In a previous article, the plan to rebuild Gaza was revealed. Those same players have now released an updated version and what they are doing should be understood as a warning to the world. While the media was banned from entering the area due to the fighting, that ban continues to exist even though the […]
You know, people are always asking me how to tell a real Republican from a fake one, or how to identify a true conservative. Are there Democrats masquerading as Republicans? Libertarians? As chair of the party, I can’t unilaterally declare who is or isn’t a “real Republican”—that’s ultimately up to the voters—but I can tell […]
I write today to remember two remarkable men whose lives intersected in an unexpected and meaningful way. In their own distinct fashions, both men loved God, loved their country, and loved the land itself. Each, in his own sphere, left behind a legacy worthy of preservation and respect. The first was Captain John “Blackjack” Bartlett—known […]
It has long seemed to me that American history moves forward in bursts of spirit.
