As reported by both Fox News and MSNBC, there have been some very interesting insights found in the exit polling after last Tuesday’s midterm elections. One of the most interesting is that the most “Blue” group of people—60% voted the Democratic line—were single working women. The strongest two groups for Republicans were mothers with more […]
Tea Party Bob’s Candidate Picks Voter Guide to aid you in making an informed vote for the 2022 election. I have compiled a list from researching a number of different sources such as campaign websites, the Idaho Freedom Foundation, and others. I believe these candidates will best serve the citizens of Idaho. Be sure to […]
There has always been something fishy about Tom Luna and we should all know what it is by now. Let me first say that Mr. Luna is a patronizing hypocrite who is still upset he lost his election as chairman of the Idaho GOP. This is a position he should have never been voted into […]
I would like to say that I’m surprised by defeated GOP chairman Tom Luna’s last-minute op-ed attacking me, Bryan Smith, and Brent Regan regarding our donations to Idaho Freedom PAC. Unfortunately, I’m not. Tom has borne false witness against us, and now it’s up to us to set the record straight. Apparently his peace offering […]
In Great Britain, the king could control when Parliament could meet and when it could be dissolved. Our Founding Fathers knew British history, and they knew that no king or executive should be able to choose when the People’s representatives could meet. They gave Congress the power to meet without the President’s consent. Unfortunately, Idaho […]
If Idaho’s framers wanted the governor to write laws and spend Idahoans’ money, they would have written those responsibilities into the Idaho Constitution—but they didn’t. Indeed, a major virtue of Idaho’s government is how it separates the executive and legislative branches with the principle of the Legislature as the law-writing and appropriating branch, and the […]
Imagine for a moment that an emergency comes up in Idaho. The governor of the state decides to wield unilateral power — to shut down the state’s economy, change laws with the stroke of a pen, and even appropriate millions of dollars from the federal government. Imagine also that some local government agencies — cities, […]
Ammon Bundy’s recent campaign ad that took on the “woke cult” has sent some shock waves through the political establishment. Bundy calls out the culture warriors who are systematically working to tear down the institutions and ideals on which our nation was founded. The ad has drawn strong reactions, including the predictable disapproval from the political left. […]
Reprinted with permission of Idaho Freedom Foundation Contrary to what you may have heard from the legacy leftist media, neither the Idaho Freedom Foundation nor Idaho Freedom Action has endorsed Ammon Bundy for governor. The Idaho Freedom Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The Idaho Freedom Foundation does not endorse candidates for elected public office, and […]
I watched “The Idaho Debates” Public Superintendent of Scholls Debate on Idaho Public TV two nights ago and I came away with two big questions: From what I was able to ascertain during the hour-long discussion was that it serves as a conduit to distribute taxpayer monies from the Federal and State to local school […]
In all the Western States surrounding Idaho, we are seeing a surge in the fortunes of conservative Republican candidates running in Statewide and local elections. I predict we will see a similar surge in Idaho with Raul Labrador. It does seem that Idaho will be the last “toe hold” for the Bush brothers, Boehner, Kasich, […]
As most of my readers know I was raised in the early years of my life in the home of my Quaker grandparents in Philadelphia. Particularly my grandmother, but also my grandfather had a very strong influence upon my faith, my philosophy of life, and as I reflect in my later life—my politics. My grandparents […]
