Open enrollment for ACA plans began yesterday in Idaho.

One couple got notice that their monthly premium next year would jump from $51 to $2,232 as subsidies expire.

25,000 Idahoans are expected to be priced out of coverage.

This is what's at stake in Trump's shutdown.

He Was the Most Notorious Sheriff in America. He Says the Supreme Court Vindicated Him. Thanks, SCOTUS.

for @slate.com I wrote about Joe Arpaio's view on the SCOTUS shadow docket decision in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo, the case in which Kavanaugh said it was okay to racially profile people.
β€œI was vindicated by the Supreme Court of all this shit.”

Idahoans are happy to sign the Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Act initiative. Especially my neighbors in Bonner County after the loss of our labor & delivery unit.

People are angry about the harm the extreme trigger ban has caused. They want to go back to how it used to be. www.backtoidaho.com

George Stephanopoulos gave every journalist in the US a crash course this weekend on how we deal with dishonest authoritarians.

People like me have been demanding this kind of accountability journalism for a decade.

Where’d we be now if journalists had been fielding lies properly for a decade?

Idaho’s last Planned Parenthood plans to stay open despite federal cuts Meridian clinic is a "lifeline," providing routine reproductive health care that the state doesn’t have the infrastructure to take over, organization leaders say.

The last remaining Planned Parenthood in Idaho intends to stay put, continuing to provide a range of reproductive health services. That's even after federal cuts to Medicaid and the state's near-total abortion ban.

It’s time to pull back your watering. Cacti like to be watered when it’s rainy season in the desert, (spring & summer). Grandpa taught me that. Works like a charm.

I water once a week during that time and the rest of the months, more like once a month.

I stopped drinking coffee last month.

I stopped buying beef.

I remember being a kid in a low income household. Meatloaf was in the regular rotation.

That same meatloaf today would cost me $15 to make.

This is not good.

I applied for a job I wanted really bad a while back and my cover letter was flagged as being written by AI.

I just ran some of my recent, 100% written by me, google docs through an AI detector. All of them were flagged.

WTF @developers.google.com?

My neighbor two doors down has a β€œHonk if you support Ukraine” sign in his front lawn.

It warms my heart to see & hear so many people, especially working men, in my community honk when they drive by.

It never gets annoying and it happens all day long. ❀️ #idpol
