All Treasure Valley students in Idaho are eligible to attend, with seats filled through a lottery system.

We The Patriots USA Conference Last weekend Jane and I attended the National Conference of “We The Patriots USA” in Boise with several hundred fellow patriots. This organization has moved their headquarters from Connecticut to the Boise area to escape as other refugees have done moving out of the coastal areas. It was a great […]
My wife and I have been members of The River Club, formerly The Plantation Country Club, for 32 years. Twelve years ago, our dream of owning a home in The Plantation subdivision came true. We moved into our home on the 12th fairway of the golf course at the end of the Fair Oaks cul-de-sac, […]
There are going to be a number of post-election critics and analysts with their opinion of who won and who lost and why. What we know for sure is that the divide is real in our communities. The local paper’s summation that some “engaged in ridiculous culture wars” in a recent editorial confirmed that they […]
Recently, while lamenting the sad state of our Uni-Party system, where Republicans and Democrats often seem to be just two sides of the same Twix bar, my mind flitted back a few years to the halcyon days of the 2014 Idaho primary campaigns. These days the rancor, rampant dishonesty, hypocrisy, and general disregard for the […]
I finally got around to reading the John Durham CROSSFIRE HURRICANE conclusions after reading through 350 pages that would make anyone’s skin crawl. Idaho’s Frank Church is rolling over in his grave and if you can listen closely in a peaceful and quiet place you can hear his voice softly saying, “I told you so.” […]
Over the past 10 months, the Idaho Republican Party has been actively engaged in a range of activities aimed at encouraging citizens to participate in federal, state, and local governance. Republican Party leaders at the state and local levels have been working hard to get out and meet with community members and raise awareness about […]
They say politics makes for strange bedfellows and I must admit when Robert F. Kennedy Jr. threw his hat into the ring to run against Joe Biden for president it came as quite a shock to most people who live and breathe politics. I have been talking about how the elite corporatists have been slowly […]
Before you jump to any conclusions after reading the title, NO, I am not dissing the good people escaping third world countries like California or Washington. I have made a lot of new friends with the recent arrivals to the promised land. What concerns me is the latest attempt to turn us into California or […]
Since I started my time as chairwoman of the Idaho Republican Party, I’ve put a lot of miles on my rig. I’ve crisscrossed the state to attend Lincoln Days, county GOP meetings, and community events. I’ve also had the opportunity to travel out-of-state for Republican National Committee events. Just last week, I traveled to Oklahoma […]
Just like the unsuspecting City of Troy was taken by surprise by a gift horse so we are seeing Idaho taken over by the Uni-Party or as we call them the political Trojan Horse. I refer to the recent announcement by “The Idaho Leaders United” declaring a purge on anyone or any group they think […]
It was back in 2015 that we along with the Idaho Freedom Foundation warned Idahoans about the problems with containing costs if Medicaid Expansion was approved in our state. It was eventually passed by referendum and is now chewing up tax dollars beyond belief. Why are we subsidizing those who are capable of paying for […]
