IDAHO GOP
Turning to a Convention of States in Times of National Crisis is Not the Answer. By Dorothy Moon, IDGOP Chairwoman (01/04/23). Reasons: 1. Risk of a runaway convention. 2. Who would represent Idaho in a Convention of States? 3. How do organizers expect to ratify any amendments coming out of a Convention of States?

Senator Jim Risch: Responding to a citizen email asking to exit and defund WHO and other globalist organizations that wish to take our national sovereignty and individual freedoms, Senator Risch stated:
”I share your concerns about the WHO and the proposal by some of its member states to draft a treaty that would be legally binding upon all member states. I’ve consistently and repeatedly warned the U.S. negotiators against entering into any sort of international agreement that would be legally binding upon the United States, absent approval by the United States Senate. While the U.S. Congress cannot compel the U.S. President – or any other head of state – to vote against an international agreement among member states of the WHO, Congress can deny the President the funds needed to implement such an agreement. This is why I introduced S.Res.81, which requires Senate advice and consent for any international agreement related to pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response.”Senator Jim Risch: Responding to a citizen email asking to close the Southern border and defund support for illegal immigrants, Senator Risch was less decisive, stating:
”There is no doubt that our country faces a crisis on our southern border. Since the end of Title 42, we have continued to see record numbers of illegal immigrants crossing our border, which strains our social, legal, health care, and law enforcement services. The United States is a nation of laws focused on protecting our people. Those who wish to immigrate here must do so legally and we welcome them.The Biden administration rolled back numerous Trump administration policies that effectively mitigated problems at the southern border. In order to prevent this national security and public health disaster from getting any worse, I introduced the Solving the Border Crisis Act. This bill would reinstate Title 42, immediately resume border wall construction, and codify the "Remain in Mexico" program. Congress and the Biden administration must take immediate action to restore order and secure the southern border.
After the border is secure, we need to reform-not overhaul-our current immigration laws. Congress has a lot to do to find solutions to labor shortages in the agricultural and technology sectors while at the same time addressing the immigration issue.”

ATTORNEY GENERAL LABRADOR
Protecting the Second Amendment (01/04/24). Idaho’s Attorney General Labrador lead 27 states with an Amicus Curiae brief in support of the challenge to California’s Assault Weapons Control Act. He also co-authored the Amicus brief in the case against California’s 10-round magazine ban with Attorney General Austin Knudson from Montana, and 23 other Attorneys General from across the nation: Read
Mr. Labrador eloquently explains: “The Second Amendment is a key component of our Bill of Rights, noted by the numerical position it occupies. The Framers of the Constitution realized our Republic can only exist if there are people willing to defend it, and that defense takes more than just strong language protected by the First Amendment. Our Bill of Rights is not a grocery list of privileges granted by the kindly benevolence of our government. The Bill of Rights are shackles placed upon government itself, describing their limitations in plain language.”US Supreme Court Allows Idaho to Enforce Strict Abortion Ban, Will Hear Case. Oral arguments in April. The Supreme Court on Friday granted Idaho the authority to enforce its strict abortion ban while legal clashes play out over a federal law mandating emergency care.

JANUARY 6
Biden DOJ Went Too Far With Prosecuting Jan. 6 Suspects. Dozens of Jan. 6 detainees are still in awaiting trial in jails three years after the Capitol incident. Former Attorney General Bill Barr said that the Department of Justice cast its net ‘far too broadly’ on prosecuting Jan. 6 defendants. He stated (among other things): he doesn’t think January 6 it was an insurrection; Biden’s Justice Department went too far, targeting people who merely “walked into open doors and hung around;” some people who attacked police and broke into the building deserve to be punished: Read

”When you take $31 million dollars from the Chinese as Joe Biden and his cohorts appear to have done, you are probably expected to do something for Beijing in return. By this point in the Biden Presidency, the list of things Joe has done for Xi Jinping is long, but one of the most disturbing is the effective elimination of any control on Chinese nationals entering this country. Even as concerns rise exponentially about the number of military-age Chinese males coming over the border, Joe is working overtime to increase the flow.”JAMES O’KEEFE (OMG): SECRET MIGRANT CENTER EXPOSED PART 1: “I’LL PAY YOU GUYS.” Phoenix Migrant ‘Refugee’ Facility worker caught trying to bribe journalist.
