These televised presidential debates have become a political circus and Chris Christe is the lead clown. None of these five candidates have a chance of winning the nomination and while they provide some entertainment for the viewers, they are just a waste of everyone’s time. The only hope any of these five candidates have is […]
Death of the Primary
The Democrats running Reclaim Idaho and their supporters are pushing a voter initiative which they are deceptively calling the “Open Primary Initiative” and falsely claiming that “Leaders are handpicked by political party committees” and that somehow Idahoans do not have the freedom to vote in all elections. These ridiculous claims are easily disproven with a […]
The election on November 7 of this year left conservatives in the dark. There were very few success stories. Many blame the chairwoman of the Republican party, who is related to Mitt Romney. I am sure there is plenty of blame to spread around. But in some cases, it was difficult to work hard to win, […]

Defending Election Integrity
I want to bring your attention to a recent victory we have had in the Attorney General’s office. This case concerns House Bills 124 and 340, laws enacted by the Legislature during the 2023 session to impose certain criteria for voting. Specifically, these laws do not recognize student IDs as valid voter identification. To fortify […]
Prudence is a Virtue
As Donald Trump said on the night of his election “politics is a complicated business”. Republicans for over 60 years have made it more complicated than it needs to be. Both Governors Batt and Otter expressed after several years in office the simple fact that getting elected is a very different process than “governing”. When […]
The Devil is in the Details If we can’t fix the problems with our state, how do we expect to fix the problems confronting our country?

Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
I was thinking about what I wanted to say about what is happening in our country and all that came to mind was Don McLean’s hit song from 1971. Remembering 1971 brought back memories of the end of the Vietnam War and the horrific loss of the 58,220 service men and women who died needlessly […]
