Jesus was a politician but not the type of politician we think about today. Politicians, Kings, Emperors, dictators, and tyrants all leverage the power they have at their disposal to promote themselves and preserve their own personal paths to political ascendency. Jesus rarely weighed in on political issues except to attack political and economic systems […]

Let’s take a trip down memory lane: To start we should discuss some of the great things that the BLM and the U.S. Forest Service have done for Idaho before we talk about these turbines.

Many Idahoans are familiar with the existence of the Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) but may have not studied them in any depth. Multiple changes are bearing down on our state which many refer to as a leftist agenda or Woke campaign. But it is really the SDGs being forced into the state. It […]

Cronyism at its worst in Idaho-Pay up to get paid back. I am no longer associated with the Idaho Freedom Foundation. I believe in their principles, and I believe in their commitment to small government and liberty ideals. Ron Nate has been an incredible addition to the organization, and it will be because of people […]
In a Gem State Patriot article that I wrote early in the pandemic, I argued that the only mask that worked against viruses with the physical and chemical characteristics of Covid-19 was the N-95 mask properly fitted.
