With just over a month to go until Election Day, Idahoans are getting fired up to vote. Absentee ballots are already in the mail, early voting starts in just two weeks, and voters are preparing to decide the most important questions of the day. Chief among those questions is whether or not Idaho will turn […]
Dear Friends, The Ninth Circuit recently ruled that a medical center employee’s sincerely held belief did not count as religion, even though the court never questioned her sincerity. Its rulings bind every federal court in Idaho, which is why I led a coalition of 18 states, Puerto Rico, and the Arizona Legislature in asking the […]
With thanks to the writings of Milton Friedman and Elon Musk’s Grok. The debate between socialism and capitalism is often reduced to slogans. Socialism is presented as compassion for working people; capitalism as freedom, initiative, and reward for enterprise. Both claims contain part of the truth. Yet the more important question is not whether a […]
As Americans are inundated with polling data from every conceivable source, much of it predicting a “blood bath” for Republicans in November, it is worth remembering a lesson from history: polls, however sophisticated they may appear, are not destiny. There was one president who endured political unpopularity more severe than anything Donald J. Trump faces […]
But you will hate 2 years of a Democratic Congress even more, so VOTE! I needed to write this article because I’m tired of listing to the constant belly aching by so many on the right and the left about the high price of gas and diesel. I often think about how lucky America is […]
AI will be the Savior of America’s economy, not the Destroyer The billions of investment dollars pouring into American AI are by far the largest peacetime capital mobilization in America’s history or the 4th industrial revolution. Although the payoff isn’t guaranteed the setup is real and all of the pieces are in place for this […]
Just as Covid-19 was used as justification to usher in the Great Reset, with vaccines, masks, and isolation rescuing everyone from the virus’s carnage, it appears the trajectory is still on track. As America began disintegrating post Covid-19, attention was only paid to Executive Orders (EO) that rescued Americans and the Constitution from that carnage […]
American culture, the American dream, and inflation anchor a wide-ranging conversation that starts at a semi-annual gathering of the Philadelphia Society — the forum founded in 1964 by William F. Buckley, Milton Friedman, and a third founder the episode recalls as Finney — and ends on Idaho’s own fights over schools, taxes, and the size […]
BOISE, ID — A federal court dismissed a lawsuit that sought to let a commercial daycare exclude Idaho children based on their parents’ private medical decisions, delivering Attorney General Raúl Labrador and the State of Idaho a complete win in defense of the Idaho Medical Freedom Act. U.S. District Judge Amanda Brailsford granted Attorney General Labrador’s […]
Dear Friends, Every parent knows that raising a child means making difficult decisions. You teach them how to cross the street, who to trust, what values to live by, and how to navigate an increasingly complicated world. Parents carry that responsibility every day. That authority and relationship do not disappear when a child walks into […]
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 […]
