I think people are responding to the "radical left scum" label so much in part because many folks realize it includes them, even though they're neither radical nor leftist. The Overton Window is so out of whack that Reagan would counted in that group today. You know, the trickle-down economics guy.

Merry Christmas everyone! Lots of people hate Christmas music, but that's because you're listening to the same tired old stuff. Here's a gem from the Christmas album of the lovely and elegant Acute Inflections. youtu.be/e8cIrmAl160?...

Idahoans, in surveys and at the doors, will tell you that their biggest problems are cost of living (housing, groceries, utilities), healthcare access, and education. These are not partisan issues. If you're not happy about the situation, you need to vote out the people responsible for it. #idpol

Being a state legislator, if you're doing it correctly, is an impossible task. There are many conflicting interests. You can't please everyone. That's why so many don't really try to represent the people. It's too difficult. But that's the job. And I intend to try, even knowing it's impossible.

Hello IdahoSky! Time to reintroduce myself. I'm Cliff Hohman, Nampa resident running for the Idaho House of Representatives in District 13 seat A. Yes, as a Democrat. Because we deserve better. Please share if you want to see positive change in Idaho! cliff-for-idaho.org #idpol #idleg 🧵

Please share. There’s only 12 likes on this important post. Bonner Co. flooding has failed many septics, wells, water/sewer systems, right before Christmas. 😭 I’m going to drop a load of water off on Thursday. #idpol www.facebook.com/share/v/1Lq5...

I've been largely absent online lately due to a death in the family, followed up by a business trip this week. But I'm still keeping tabs on things. ICE is active daily in Canyon County, with local LEOs assisting them. So far I've not heard reports of violence, but keep your eyes open, folks. 1/3

Campaign goals

Here's the problem: Even if this guy getting snatched up makes you cheer, doing it in response to reporting a *FIRE* sends a clear message to everyone that it's dangerous to call 911. Next time, someone is just going to let the fire burn rather than report it. That's not increasing public safety.

Kaylee is an impressive candidate. If you'd like to see better leadership in DC, consider tossing her a few bucks.

As always, anyone is welcome.

Masked ICE agents are confirmed doing traffic stops in Meridian today. Be careful, folks, and avoid the busier streets if you have concerns. We know these guys can be violent and that they don't seem to care much who they pick up. #Idaho

I'm looking for the 1%. Not THAT 1%. Those guys are jerks. I'm looking for the top 1% most passionate Dems / lefties in District 13. Last year, I managed to get 28% of the vote despite Dems only making up 11% of the electorate. I had very little help. If the 1% help out now, how far can we go?

If the team at @katforillinois.bsky.social ever gets bored (LOL) there's some state level races in Idaho that could use these kinds of endorsements! Me. I'm talking about me. I don't have any cat endorsements yet!

Can't forget these rights, too!

Knowing your rights and exercising those rights may make a huge difference in the event you run into law enforcement. You have constitutional rights in that situation, and hopefully they don't violate those rights. But if they do, let us know by filling out the form on our website.

To Congressman Fulcher, we’ve tried for 4 years… As always, if this setting makes you uncomfortable... I will agree to any and all stipulations that would make you more comfortable on the debate stage. Any time, any day, any moderator, any questions. #debate #congress #news #election #politics

Housing and rent prices are the top issue for nearly every voter I meet and yet Congress pretends as if there aren’t solutions readily available. Let’s stop electing out of touch people who have never had to worry about keeping a roof over their head! #housing #rent #fyp #politics #vote

This is all so maddening. The individual mandate that the ACA or Obamacare was based on was championed by conservatives as a market-based approach. It was a REPUBLICAN idea. From the HERITAGE FOUNDATION. 🧵 idahocapitalsun.com/2025/11/19/r...

We elect these guys, and then they don't trust us to vote for anything else. Maybe they have a point. Maybe we did make a mistake voting... when we elected THEM. Vote for candidates who respect you, Idaho.

A deeply sad and, I suspect, not unusual story. This is why seeing the leopards eating the faces doesn't bring me any joy. Yes, they voted for this. They should have known better. They didn't. And now this guy may not survive. Can't snark your way past that. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

If fiscal responsibility is your big issue, you really need to start voting for Dems #IDPol

Another remote event with limited, controlled questions no doubt. Know who routinely does in person events where everyone gets to speak? His opponent, Kaylee Peterson. Because she takes this seriously. Because she actually wants to listen to you. Plus, she's a badass. @kayleeforcongress.bsky.social

I drive a 2002 Toyota Echo because I'm THAT fancy. Excellent vehicle, criminal they didn't make more of them. Never had trouble with it. Today, when I'm late leaving for my flight to Houston for work, is the day the engine decided to try to shake its way to freedom.

Oh good, maybe they will fight with the IFF over who can be the worst.

Technically, there is no Minnesota Democratic Party. Back in the 40s, they merged with a 3rd party to form the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, or DFL. Maybe all state parties should join the DFL just to send a message that we aren't like the national party.🧵

Trying to write a clever post about how mad I am at Chuck Schumer @schumer.senate.gov but I'm too pissed to manage it. I can only assume he actually wants people to leave the party. Not much else makes sense. He's making it so much harder for us down here in the trenches.

I understand the information bubble that many conservatives are in. I can not for the life of me understand the information bubble that national Democratic Party leaders are in. What could possibly make them think a "promise" from the regime to do something they clearly don't want to do is a win?

Side note: Truth Social is a comically obnoxious website, regardless of the content. Mostly ads, and not from the sort of companies that inspire confidence in the quality of their product. Do not recommend.

After 15 years of screaming about how bad Obamacare is, the GOP has finally unveiled their own healthcare plan to replace it. It's... nothing. It's just, you're on your own. Dude is firing on all cylinders.

Saw yet another "never thought the leopards would eat MY face" comment and I realized it's been months since that phenomenon has brought me any amusement or schadenfreude. Now it's just, "Oh they're hurting your family, huh? Welcome to the Resistance."

"Please don't make us feed people" is quite a statement to be making from the folks with the giant luxury jet and fancy ballroom. They don't even want us to eat cake. Just starve. White House asks court to block order to fully distribute November’s food stamps www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I keep going back and forth every few days from "we are cooked fam, democracy is done" to "I've got to think of more ways to engage with Nampa voters" and they both feel correct in the moment.

"One general fund budget scenario presented Tuesday... listed an estimated deficit of $555.2 million for fiscal year 2027. Idaho budget writers prepare to enter new era of trimming state budgets idahocapitalsun.com/2025/11/05/i...

Well, we lost our bid to give Nampa a mayor who would actually work for the people. We put a lot of work into it... a lot. I'm so thankful to everyone who helped out, most of all to Eric himself. The work we (he) did will help everyone moving forward.

People who work from home, if you're too busy to answer the door, that's fine. Nobody's upset about that. I'm just a bit confused when you somehow have to time to answer the door so you can snap at me that you're too busy to answer the door. Seems like we could have skipped that step.

Just makes me mad. I just can't tell you how mad it makes me. The screwed up thing? This doesn't reduce our taxes. We still pay the same amount. We just aren't getting as much for it as we were. The Idaho GOP does not care about us. They see us as second class citizens. #IDPol

Folks, check your polling location now so you can plan for tomorrow. Don't assume it's the same place as last year. Idaho loves to change polling locations seemingly at random. You can use this link to confirm where you go to vote. #IDPol elections.sos.idaho.gov/ElectionLink...

The front door opens, a Dia de los Muertos ofrenda is visible inside. "Oh, I'm already voting for Eric Myricks. Because I support the Hispanic community." #Nampa

Wait wait wait... the party at Mar-a-Largo was *literally* Great Gatsby themed? I assumed that was just what critics were calling it. Is this, like, a strategic choice to stop people from making the French Revolution comparisons? Because at least Gatsby didn't have guillotines?

Great day for canvassing today! One woman had already done her research and was voting for Eric Myricks for #Nampa mayor. "I don't know what party he is, but I like all his plans and that's all that matters." Exactly. That's all we're asking for, vote for the person. Not blind loyalty to a party.

Vote Solar and the Sierra Club announced they filed the petition and have asked the Idaho Public Utilities Commission, or PUC, to create a working group to review the fairness of solar reimbursement rates before the next scheduled review in 2028.

There is no question off limits, difficult questions, Republican voters concerned about the D next to my name, concerns about the campaign…I want to hear from you!! Register thru the link in my bio to join us at one of the next three Wednesdays in November!! #question #fyp #townhall #idaho #politics

#Nampa, it's all hands on deck to get out the vote for Eric Myricks! We need help this Saturday through Tuesday evening, volunteer shifts available throughout the day. This is a turnout election, so GOTV really matters. www.mobilize.us/canyoncounty...
