Living in Idaho… resisting the nonsense and striving to be more curious/less judgmental. Here to share what I know and learn what I don’t know. Teachers and nurses are my heroes.

Trump will declare victory, then retreat to keep our ships safe. But very little will have changed in Iran. The new leader will be like the old leader. The quest for regime change will have failed, after our expenditure of blood, munitions, taxpayer money, and military readiness.

Today under questioning, Federal prosecutors admitted that the Grand Jury in the Comey case had not seen the actual indictment filed in the case… not only is the Trump “Justice” Department unjust, it is inept.

Looks like the same old demented, delusional, inept, narcissistic sociopath to me.

Solar farms and agriculture: We can have both in Ada County • Idaho Capital Sun Zoning code changes would effectively ban large-scale solar development on most Ada County land, writes David Garman.

If Idaho wants to “own the libs” by banning solar projects, Idahoans will pay dearly as a consequence.

Who would want a Trump scent? A mix of body odor, compacted diaper poop and ketchup.
