#Idaho legislature has made it illegal to fly Pride flags on city or state property; our so-called "small-government" Republicans love free speech, until it's for inalienable human rights & dignity. So instead of seeing flags on Harrison Blvd's street poles like usual, they'll be dispersed. #Boise

"The move came after a transgender student who was part of Boise High School’s Sexuality and Gender Alliance died by suicide, and another stopped attending the school, the group’s lawyers wrote in a legal agreement reached Wednesday requesting the case be dismissed."

The history behind the Mother’s Day movement is fascinating and honestly I’m surprised there isn’t a popular book or movie about it (maybe there is?) - about Anna Jarvis - and how this holiday has roots in women’s rights, resistance and feminism. Beyond breakfasts in bed, cards and flowers.

We got never-before-released, declassified UFO files from the Trump admin before we got the remaining 3.5 million Epstein files they continue to hide. Sounds about right.

It goes on to say “But what if your faith and your finances were never meant to be separate…”

his last term ended with a mortifying global pandemic and insurrection the way his second term is going, well, I just think all we can do is keep a steady stream of McDonald’s DoorDash orders going to the WH

every day a fresh nightmare

We love our jobs and are proud of our work. But we need a fair contract — just cause, fair wages and basic AI guardrails — to do this work well. So we’re striking today. Don’t cross the picket line.

“61% of adults who own guns are white men. We cannot make sense of gun hoarding and the cult of the gun if we don’t deal with white nationalism. And we can’t deal with white nationalism without dealing with United States History.” Roxanne Dunbar Ortiz, Feb 2020 UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs

Today at work someone asked if I’d guard the door at the restroom for them due to the recent activities of Idaho lawmakers. A. Of course I will and I’m honored to do it. B. Fuck you Idaho lawmakers. C. Glad to be a person they knew they could ask. And I will be forever.

Yeah, thats's my political opponent, just openly admitting that he cares more about his NRA rating than public safety OR fiscal responsibility. This is also the guy who said overt racism didn't bother him because he has a really good sense of humor, so he's building a brand, I guess.

I hope some Boise State students make some noise against this campus event. “We are going to start with ~ 1hr documentary delving into the research on the "hushed" connection between abortion and breast cancer. Then we will push back against the narrative in Idaho.” ⚠️😒🖕

If you think the SAVE Act isn’t about disenfranchising women, look at who’s pushing it. Scott Yenor, tied to a men only Christian nationalist group and the Heritage Foundation behind Project 2025. #NoPayToVoteSaveAct Pass it on 👇🏼

#NoKings #Boise had a fantastic turnout today.

Our small government heroes at it again, micromanaging Boise instead of fixing any of the important things in Idaho. I hope anyone who voted for this shit loses their seat.

The U.S. is starving 11 million people in Cuba. Right now. Power is out. Food is rotting. Water pumps are shut down. Sewage is overflowing into the streets. The US Navy block humanitarian aid from other countries. American news isn't covering this.

I’m in D.C. again today as several U.S. Citizen families share their stories about their (often violent) arrests by immigration agents In this picture: Anabel Romero of Idaho speaking while her 14YO, 8YO & 6YO listen behind her. All are citizens detained during an FBI-ICE raid in Idaho last year

This is the type of whacko who has been moving to Idaho. As soon as he loses the Gubernatorial race, he will move to Eagle, Idaho….🤬

Trump. Is. Manipulating. The. Stock. Market.

Hi friends! Today I'm mostly focused on Senate State Affairs and Senate Judiciary and floor votes. #idleg #idpol SSA- SB 1365 exempt churches from sunshine reporting reqs if they oppose something like an abortion ballot initiative... SJUD- HB 752 Criminal Anti-Trans bathroom bill

Poor design choice for the AI chat feature on the idaho.gov website 😂

Using “mental health” to impose religion in schools is a dirty business. If passed (it will likely pass), this bill will introduce students to consider silent prayer (or meditation, but we know what that means). It is endorsing religion and injecting prayer in Idaho public schools. #IDleg #IDpol

Tucked in the Justice Dept a little-known board is rapidly setting immigration policy. Reconfigured by Trump, the Board of Immigration Appeals is pushing out more precedent setting decisions than ever and almost all favor ICE attorneys. We broke it down: www.npr.org/2026/03/20/n...

Taking Amtrak from Northern Nevada to Grand Junction for the kiddo’s spring break (visiting family). I booked a roomette. It’s our first “real” train experience. Any tips or pointers?

Had the loveliest dream that I was at a library.

Who is running the “Boise Now Online” AI slop account?

Hi Idaho. Did you know that assault is already illegal? Did you know that assault in a public restroom is already illegal? Did you know it's illegal regardless of the genders of the people involved? Did you know that trans folks suffer higher rates of assault than the rest of us? 🧵

Mahmoud Khalil helped his wife pick out baby names while in immigration detention. Now, he hesitates to walk with his son alone. A year after being detained, this green card holders' legal battles continue to roil. @carriejohnson.bsky.social + I caught up w/ him. www.npr.org/2026/03/10/n...

NEW: 23 people have died in ICE custody this fiscal year, already surpassing the number of deaths of last fiscal year. DHS did not respond to our questions about the tally but they did respond to GA Senator questions about detention conditions. Latest: www.npr.org/2026/03/10/g...

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August. He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA. The grift continues.

Many outlets have written about CPCs over the years, but surprisingly few people understand what they are, even those who are well-informed about the political landscape around reproductive care. We've tried to lay out a foundation to build on with these first pieces.

NEW: Guards have taken away crayons, colored pencils & paper during recent room searches at Dilley, according to detainees and others. After one inspection, the children just “cried and cried and cried,” a mother said. The facility denies the claims. By @mckenziefunk.com @micarosenberg.bsky.social

Hello! I’m the reporter who has been tracking citizens detained by immigration agents. And last night, I noticed something: A lot of them were at the State of the Union, including a number of whom I’ve written about. Their stories should be known:

Immigration courts by the #’s: - 25% less judges - 400 less legal assistants + clerks - 12 courts lost over half their judges, two have no full time IJs - supervisors spread across several locations We break down a clear picture of what is happening across the country: www.npr.org/2026/02/23/g...

I know there’s so much going on all over the world, but PLEASE don’t forget the unfathomable horrors Palestinian journalists have been — and continue to be — subjected to 💔😭

The suit decimated the Aryan Nations, and for a time, residents felt like things had calmed down—until Trump’s first term. “Things got weird in Coeur d’Alene after the 2016 election... But then after the Covid-19 pandemic, shit went completely off the rails.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

What Israel does so often w/ the organs of Palestinians is so unbelievably crazy that you sound insane just repeating it. It’s actually quite the cover for bad acts, make them so horrific nobody can believe they’re even possible. This teacher got fired for repeating what Palestinian doctors say...

I think Pam Bondi crashed the stock market.

The interview w/Idaho sheriff involved in the raid (who I covered OFTEN years ago) is striking. He disputes zip-tied kids until shown pic of 14YO girl (same pic that made FBI backtrack months ago) Then: "I've gone against gang members who are a lot younger than that" www.cbsnews.com/news/feds-zi...
