Trying to keep my sheep together in Victor, Idaho. It takes fortitude to live in Idaho.

The #Smithsonian American history museum altered the impeachment exhibit to try to placate Trump. (Don't they know that appeasement never works?)

Smithsonian removes Trump from impeachment exhibit in American history museum A temporary placard, on display since 2021, described the president's historic impeachments. Officials said the exhibit was restored to an earlier version following a review of legacy content.

This is the fault of the Idaho Legislature and Governor Little. They could fix it if they wanted to.

The Justice Department has the Epstein files. Right now.

Everything they’re doing now is a distraction.

Just RELEASE THEM.

Those are Jim Jones's words, not mine. But I really hope he's right.

At some point Trump will go down in flames, as all strongmen eventually do. Then Risch, Crapo, and Simpson will have to eat a lot of words.

Idaho's Little, Risch and Crapo are betting heavily on Trump’s MAGA program β€’ Idaho Capital Sun The Big Beautiful (Billionaire) Bill's drafters were clever to disguise the damage their handiwork will do to working people, writes Jim Jones.

"Little, Risch and Crapo seem to think that obedience to Trump is a ticket to keeping their precious offices. Reading the tea leaves, including the most recent polling, it is a good bet that they are woefully wrong."

Sounds vaguely familiar. Didn't the Soviets put dissidents in mental institutions as a way of imprisoning them?

I doubt that anyone ever looks at Simpson's "survey" results. They are just a way to direct people to Simpson's website.

Nevertheless, I always answer multiple times, and not with the answer he wants to hear.

.@IdahoGOP is marketing #AlligatorAlcatraz t-shirts.

"One way in - no way out". "Bold. Unashamed. America First. Get your t-shirt today ..."

#IdahoGOP is monetizing xenophobia, cruelty, and racism.

Appalling. A new low, even for #Idaho.

I doubt there is a more obsequious sycophant than #CongMikeSimpson. He acts like Trump has kompromat on him that he doesn't want to get out.

When Trump falls, which is inevitable, #Simpson will be embarrassed about his sycophancy.

Vote him out.

It happened to me on top of Teton Pass. A tourist decided to β€œtest” her bear spray by spraying it on the pavement right next to my car door as I was getting out. It nearly killed me. I nearly killed her. I told her to READ THE FUCKING INSTRUCTIONS. Lotta stupid people around here.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Cute trick, Simpson! You know the big Medicaid cuts don't take effect until after the midterms. You and your buddies are counting getting reelected before voters feel the pain you've caused -- all while stoking hate for our immigrant neighbors who can't enroll in Medicaid.

Little tells agencies, education leaders to prepare for possible spending cuts Little also ordered spending limits because of lagging revenue and major tax cuts that allow for β€œslight growth” only.

Email from #GovernorLittle: "Thank you for contacting me about education funding... Education is my top priority as Governor."
He's sure AF not acting like it.

Watch what he does, not what he says.

This is not okay.

Call the gov: 208) 334-2100
Let him know how you feel about taking money from education to pay for private school #vouchers and #taxcuts.
