@LukasSchubertMT @FinleyWarden I have no patience for sign stealers or lit grabbers.

Wow, former California teacher, Rep. Linda Reksten of Polson, MT caught on camera standing idly by while her assistant stole her America First strong conservative opponent's (@FinleyWarden) campaign literature.

@TrueMattEdwards Fear Factor. I saw that one.

Sunday trivia: I was a contestant on a nationwide game show over 15 years ago. Which one was it?

It's a beautiful day, but I am in the office preparing GREAT content for clients. I don't mind though, because the building is empty and I am back recapturing my 90's energy and persona by blasting Bowie's Station to Station and Low albums. Keep me going by dropping your favorite Bowie covers in the comments!

Today I learned that the name Dennis is a derivative of Dionysius. I've always thought Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite would be a cool baby name, but Pseudo-Dennis might be even cooler.

What is this

This essay relies on a troubling kind of political language. It sorts Idahoans into the “reasonable” and the “extreme,” the enlightened and the dangerous, the acceptable and the deplorable. One does not restore responsible government by treating one’s neighbors as a contamination to be neutralized. Could it be, like Principal Skinner, that it is he and not the Idaho electorate that is out of touch? idahoednews.org/voices/indepen…

I am proud of our work and I am very optimistic about the future!

@AlecMacGillis Pro Tip: If your NGO has to close its doors when the government stops funneling taxpayer dollars to you, then you were NOT a "Non-governmental organization"

@JButterfield91 @rkmcshane @RMCStrategy @BrentFRegan @Elaine4Idaho @vitobarbieri Many past, current, and future officeholders were there! Maybe we should hold a mixer every month!

@rkmcshane @RMCStrategy @BrentFRegan @Elaine4Idaho @vitobarbieri Wow!! What a great turnout!!

Packed house for the opening of the @RMCStrategy Northwest Office! Thank you Idaho! A special thank you to Chairman @BrentFRegan , Representative @Elaine4Idaho , and Representative @vitobarbieri

Our company founder and president @rkmcshane's brief visit to Idaho has ended, but I am still here. Come visit me and my colleagues at our new Coeur d'Alene RMC office.

It was an exciting speech and very well-received.

Locked down with our CEO @JeffMcGowan702 and Vice President @steven_hilding for a planning meeting. Not even 4 months into the year and we’ve exceeded so many goals at @RMCStrategy , we met to set bigger goals. I’ll be in Idaho next week to open our first Idaho office!

@rkmcshane @JeffMcGowan702 @steven_hilding @RMCStrategy Looking forward to a successful 2026 cycle!

Congrats to David Worley on earning the Veterans for America First endorsement for Idaho State Senate District 28! As a dedicated officer in the Idaho National Guard and a combat veteran who’s served our country with honor, David brings real leadership and integrity to the table. A proud father of five, he’s committed to family values, honest government, and putting Idahoans first. Southeast Idaho is in great hands…thank you for stepping up, David!

@ArmchairW My family likes Campfire Cooking in Another World. Would that make tge cut?

My first initiative would be to permanently ban all companies with Lord of the Rings names from getting contracts. My second initiative would be to distribute an official anime watchlist.

Not only am I more qualified to be Secretary of Defense than Pete Hegseth, but at this point I can guarantee that I'd do a better job than he has.

@baronitaigas @FistedFoucault OK, will follow FistedFoucault.

@DavidTWorley Let's help him get the message out: worleyforidaho.com/donate

Two years ago I stopped a man who was kicking a woman on the ground on the side of Pole Line Road in Pocatello. When I confronted him, he reached into the waistband of his clothing as he approached me. I didn't know whether or not he was reaching for a weapon, so I drew my conceal carry pistol. Fortunately, he did not have a weapon, and I did not have to use deadly force to protect myself or the young woman. I detained him at gun point until the police arrived to take him into custody. idahostatejournal.com/freeaccess/nat… The Pocatello police were professional and after interviewing witnesses determined that my escalation of force was justified. The police department later gave me the Distinguished Service by a Civilian Award. The citation reads "His actions have contributed significantly to the betterment of the Greater Pocatello Community and saved a female from sustaining further bodily harm or death." I am glad that I didn't have to take the life of that young man, but sometimes law-abiding citizens have to use deadly force to protect themselves and others. Unfortunately, even in Idaho, that can lead to being dragged through the criminal justice system and spending large sums of money on legal bills. We need to pass the Stand Your Ground Shield Act, SB 1298. We need to protect those who lawfully protect themselves and others. This bill creates enforceable immunity for Idahoans who use justified force. Key Provisions: 1. You cannot be arrested for actions committed in self-defense unless a judge signs a warrant based on evidence that you acted unlawfully. 2. Forces a fast-track immunity hearing, requires dismissals when force was justified, and requires the government to reimburse your legal costs when you are cleared, including lost wages and attorney fees. 3. Mandates expungement so that innocent people don't have arrest records for the rest of their lives. The people of Idaho should be confident that their lives will not be ruined by liberal prosecutors. They should know that if they do what is necessary to protect themselves or their family that the law will truly be on their side. WorleyforIdaho.com
