Seems like #Utah is taking care of its citizens. Instead of bashing them, maybe #Idaho should follow big brother's lead? Utah State Legislature wants to cut the tax Utah residents pay to fill up their vehicles by 50%, shifting the burden to #refineries www.kivitv.com/downtown-boi... #MikeMoyle

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

Just had date night pizza at Red Bench. The parking lot & restaurant have been packed since we got here. Server said they’ve been so busy that they ran out of Diet Coke and not only that, but it’s all “the best kind of people.”

New Idaho bill would ban cities from banning LGBTQ+ discrimination. Is double banning the same as a double negative? idahocapitalsun.com/2026/01/28/n... #Idaho #CultureWars #HomophobiaOnSteroids

A social media memory from 2 years ago today. I had to skip my walk along Lake Washington so I could be at work early. 🫤

Minneapolis strong!

NOOOOO!!!! 😢💔

In a new Compact op-ed, TWS President Tracy Stone-Manning shares what she learned running the Bureau of Land Management and why we must rebuild a system that protects clean water, wildlife, and our freedom to get outside for future generations. Read here: https://bit.ly/4qHEdxa

Those pesky humanoids Boise, known as the City of Trees, is home to more than its share of fox squirrels. From a squirrel's eye view, what's not to love about living in Boise? Around here there are a plethora of trees of various sizes, shapes, and life styles that provide all sorts of seeds, nuts,…

“He doesn’t like chaos on his watch,” one WH official said. HAA! UNLESS of course, it his own daily dose of chaos.

What in hell happened to getting the government off our backs and out of our lives? #Idaho Legislature would ban local policies in cities that prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation & gender identity. The fuckers are afraid of kindness. idahocapitalsun.com/2026/01/28/n... #DEI

Poor little crybaby in the White House just can’t handle the loss in 2020. Trump law office formally the DOJ has issued a warrant to search the Fulton County election office! The Orange man is still trying to win an election he lost 6 years ago! Pretty sad little ego.

OMFG. With all the budget woes the State of #Idaho has, we're back to debating #flags in a city that only a handful of you live in? Get a life boys. A little #Pride ain't gonna kill you. boisedev.com/news/2026/01...

Happy birthday @jeffhubbard.bsky.social

Reposting this given #ICE activity in #McCall over the weekend.

I've just uploaded a short clip of real-time aurora to YouTube. This is my second attempt at filming an aurora with the Sony A7S ii, learning new stuff about this camera every time I use it. The high ISO video is insane ! www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2h4... #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth: “ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king. This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

@mikecrapo.bsky.social ID Senators/Reps, what will you do about this? Lawless terrorization by so-called federal agents, irrefutable video evidence of murder by said agents. Will you be complicit with tyranny or will you stand with the rule of law, the constitution, morality, and the people?

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Stephen Miller has labeled Alex Pretti a “domestic terrorist” who intended to “massacre law enforcement.” Alex Pretti was a 37 years old American ICU nurse for veterans. He was a legal gun owner with a permit to carry. No criminal record. He is dead. He cannot respond. Say his name. ✊🏼

Fryingpan River! Ya gotta love it.

The disregard for human life in our leaders is shocking.

Who knew that paying of a car loan 2 years ahead of schedule would lower one's #Experian credit score? Weird.

Ya. Of course with the lopsided #GOP #IdahoLegislature the more partisan the better, right? WRONG!!!!! Bill introduced for second year in a row to make ACHD partisan, elected by entire county. boisedev.com/news/2026/01... #LegislativeControlFreaks

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Seems ironic that ICE is coming down in force in the iciest states in the nation.

America has become a #ThugState. Tell me how we're any better than 1930s Germany? We've learned nothing. States, cities are hard-pressed to fight violent ICE arrest tactics. idahocapitalsun.com/2026/01/23/r... #AmericanBrownshirts
