New at the Chronicle: We keep asking more of our lawmakers, yet withhold the tools or time to do the job well. Why interim groups like DOGE matter if we want real reform: gemstatechronicle.com/2025/07/the-pa…
. @approject: “Republicans included several pro-family policies in the One, Big, Beautiful Bill, including defunding Planned Parenthood, increasing the child tax credit, and supporting paid family leave. But one of the most overlooked parts of this bill was the addition of Trump…
Oregon tried to force foster parents to swear an oath pledging to “accept and support” any child’s gender identity, which in practice meant affirming preferred pronouns and supporting gender transition procedures. People of faith were excluded if they wouldn’t pledge to violate…
Can a religious parent be banned from adopting if she refuses to affirm LGBT identity choices? The Ninth Circuit's Judge Bress says no! Huge win for @ADFLegal here and a roadmap to challenge this type of law across the country. @AGIowa joined a @Raul_Labrador led amicus here!
@Citizens_Idaho is hands-down the single most effective force for bringing more conservative legislators and more conservative policy to Idaho. No organization does more!

Hulk Hogan was a great American icon. One of the first people I ever truly admired as a kid. The last time I saw him we promised we’d get beers together next time we saw each other. The next time will have to be on the other side, my friend! Rest in peace.

Hulk Hogan left us with many memories, but his greatest legacy is that 18 months ago, he and his wife were baptized and gave their lives to Jesus Christ: “Total surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment… only love.”
Hulk Hogan was a once-in-a-generation, larger-than-life icon of American entertainment. He was also a Patriot with a heart of gold who loved his country, his countrymen, and his President. Having spent much of his career defeating various anti-Patriot characters, it is fitting…
Everyone dies, but it's surreal when a childhood icon goes. I didn't even care for wrestling but Hulk Hogan towered larger than life above our culture in the 80s and 90s.
Hulk Hogan was a genuine, uniquely American creation. Fearlessly original. Flawed but unbowed. He had the courage to stand on his own principles, and he never stopped fighting for his country. An American icon. He will be missed.

Step 1: Politician throws out silly ragebait. Step 2: Social media activists freak out over silly ragebait. Step 3: Chaos for clicks organizations raise funds off silly ragebait. Rinse and repeat.
Just a few of the successes the Senate has seen in recent years to improve health freedom in Idaho . . . gemstatechronicle.com/2025/07/releas…
