The Idaho Republican Party is broken. There seems to be two factions within the party that have for years been at odds with each other not only with regards to political philosophy, but also regarding issues of values and accountability. In a State that is 70% Republican, factions within the Republican Party in Idaho would […]
My family and I belonged for many years to St. Paul’s Catholic Church in Portsmouth Virginia. Founded in 1804. The Gothic structure survived fires, battles from two wars (1812 and our Civil War), provided sanctuary for slaves seeking their freedom, and served as a hospital in both the War of 1812 and the Civil War. […]
How our country has changed in 2 ½ short years with the ungodly Democrats in charge. We hear them talking about abortion in terms of man’s laws instead of God’s law and this is where the real problem lies. We as a nation have devolved to the point that we no longer live by God’s […]
Late last week, Idaho’s leftist press gloated about the State Supreme Court’s decision that the Attorney General’s office must rewrite the blanket primary / ranked choice voting ballot initiative. What they’re not telling you is that this actually marks a triumph for the AG and for all Idahoans who value the truth. The ballot initiative […]

Please contact your elected officials (especially US Senators) to STOP the UN’s World Health Organization’s Pandemic Treaty. Once you read the following analysis you will realize this very bad treaty must not be ratified to stop nearly total WHO control over our lives. Greetings Senators Crapo and Risch; Representatives Simpson and Fulcher; Governor Little; Lt. […]
There are many words that I believe can be used to describe the way that (st.) Luke’s is acting in their treatment of Mr. Ammon Bundy. I believe Mr. Bundy has made mistakes both in his actions that initiated legal proceedings against him, and on several occasions in the way he has disrespected the court—especially […]
The idea that an organized legitimate political opposition to an existing elected government did not exist until our Constitutional Republican form of government emerged from the chaos of The Articles of Confederation. Beginning as early as 1790, before political parties had even come into being, the political landscape was littered with contentious and frequently violent […]
It’s been another busy week in the Attorney General’s office holding the federal government accountable. This week, I joined with 27 states to call on the United States Supreme Court to grant certiorari in the case of Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and to correct an earlier decision in Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. that […]
Boise, ID – Attorney General Raúl Labrador has joined a West Virginia-led coalition of 21 states opposing the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed new rule on existing coal, natural gas, and oil-fired power plants. The proposal attempts to regulate those plants under the Clean Air Act by imposing more stringent emissions standards. It ignores last […]
Boise, ID – Attorney General Raúl Labrador joined a 16-state coalition in a letter to U.S. Congressional leadership, urging the passage of the Ending Agricultural Trade Suppression (“EATS”) Act.

The oil depletion allowance is the biggest incentive to invest in drilling for oil, natural gas and fracking and without this allowance, […]
