COMMENTARY | Our politics have moved from our historic conservatism to a kind of radicalism that is hardly recognizable, writes guest columnist Rod Gramer. #idleg #idpol

Protest song by Bruce Springsteen re: killings in Minneapolis. m.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKS...

Sara Haines mentions Idaho this morning on #TheView… a state w/ the weakest gun laws. Excellent convo on #2A where Idaho lawmakers’ motto has always been, “No one will infringe on my Second Amendment rights.” Watch the clips of #Felon47 backtrack & more abt #Minneapolis tragedy. Despicable😡

This does not bode well for research etc.

Some signs from the 3,000 strong Women’s March in #Boise today. #Idaho

Hey, elected leaders, unless you are actively trying to stop the daily violence and unconstitutional entries, searches, detentions, by ICE on our streets, then you are ENDORSING the terror Americans are feeling at the hands of these untrained, unrestrained, masked, mob of government employees.

This is a 10 minute listen. And well worth your time.

Tonight - Boise!!!

And now the FBI is taking complete control of the investigation. We all know the fix is in. These goons can act without any fear of accountability. Imagine what they’re doing to all the people they’ve taken into custody far from any witnesses.

If we're going to spiral into a budget crisis, can we at least be trying to help regular Idahoans while we're at it, instead of tax cuts and school vouchers for the rich? As Idaho Legislature readies to reconvene, one former state senator asks: Are we in Kansas? idahocapitalsun.com/2026/01/06/a...

Something to keep in mind as we head into 2026. Quote is from JRR Tolkien Lord of The Rings. The quote concludes: “There’s some good in this world, Mr Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for”.

Make it known

Trans Day of Remembrance is a somber reminder of the impacts pervasive transphobia and an epidemic of violence bring to our trans community. Our gender identity should never make us a target. This day also reminds us of our responsibility to keep each other safe and speak out against injustice.

Well worth a virtual visit. If they weren’t virtual they’d need an entire physical wing devoted to the Trump regime.

Reminds me of this slogan I saw: I like my Democracy the way I like my whiskey. Neat. No ICE.

My #chemohair journey from late June to late October 2025. Now I’ve got chemo curls. I felt like my hair was never going to regrow but little by little it did. I hope this helps anyone seeing this to not give up. #chemohairgrowth #cancersucks #cancersurvivor

The math ain't mathin.

No Kings is a food drive event along with being a patriotic, pro democracy celebration. So, if you have some canned or dry goods to spare, bring them along to donate. #NoKings #FoodDrive #Donate #Boise #Idaho

A law was passed a long time ago to place a plaque on the wall to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on J6. The plaque is done and has been ready to hang up for a long time. MAGA Mike refuses to comply with that law, which is a slap in the face to every officer. bsky.app/profile/atru...

@acluidaho.bsky.social having an attorney with bullhorn at rallies is a great way to ensure our rights are protected.

In case you need a hint about what the Benny Hill nonsense in Portland is supposed to be distracting from: A judge in South Carolina told the Trump administration they couldn't have the state's voter data. THEY BLEW UP HER HOUSE.

This is our shadow President. Good luck America

My dog Ruth’s favorite sleeping position. lol. #Havanese #Idahoescapes #dogs

Zucchini tart made with some of my abundant garden zucchini. I like this because it is baked not fried. Recipe link in my first comment. #Idaho #garden #zucchini #recipes

1. True. 2. And the institution explicitly set up to encourage this snitching on their fellow citizens (specifically, their teacher) is called Professor Watchlist.

Make it so. #idpol

@bagleycartoons.bsky.social Pat Bagley is brilliant political cartoonist. Captures the essence of our current corrupt politics in a few well chosen images.

Yes: I stand with the Transgender community. I will not let them be erased. #transrightsarehumanrights

Stinks!

I’m posting my pics of my chemo hair journey in hopes it reminds people to get their yearly screenings.Mine saved my life as I had zero symptoms of ovarian cancer. BTW Pap test is for cervical cancer it does not identify ovarian cancer! #cancer #chemohair #ovariancancer

I think this applies to a lot of our #Idaho legislators and certainly to West Ada school district leaders.

Not drag queens, not trans, they are all “Christians”.

Thinking about Blaise Pascal quote: Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction. “ consider the gleeful damage of Idaho Christian Nationalist preacher Doug Wilson and Sec Defense Pete Hegseth
