IDAHO FREEDOM CAUCUS, IDAHO FREEDOM FOUNDATION & FREEDOM FIGHTERS
LAWFARE! I will not be intimidated by lawfare! By GLENNEDA ZUIDERVELD (12/18/23). Glenneda Z responded to a lawsuit thread against her free speech as follows: “I will not allow threats of lawfare to cow me into submission. I promised my voters that I would always tell them the truth, and that is what I will do, no matter what. I don’t work for Senate leadership, and I don’t work for special interests that want to control what I say and do. I work for the voters of District 24, period, END OF STORY!” She also advocated support for Senator Brian Lenney’s upcoming anti-SLAPP bill (SLAPP stands for “Strategic lawsuits against public participation”): Read | Related Senate Tyranny | Related Idaho Freedom Caucus Article

IACI INFLUENCE: Trent Clark, former chairman of the Idaho Association of Commerce and Industry (IACI) and former Monsanto lobbyist implied Idaho’s government is built for the politically connected. By Wayne Hoffman, Idaho Freedom Foundation (12/14/23). Hoffman dissects a recent statement Trent Clark wrote on Facebook: “Our current government is beholden to the businesses that are thriving in this political environment. IFF, on the other hand, is beholden to the very businesses that do not thrive in this environment, and therefore are willing to pay handsomely to disrupt the system.” Read

EDUCATION & TAXATION: Shady news stories aside, Idaho’s supermajority for bond elections should remain in place. By Wayne Hoffman, Idaho Freedom Foundation (12/19/23). Taxes, and especially school bonds and levies allow the government to take your money often under misleading circumstances and after biased media campaigns. Media such as Idaho Statesman and others with a liberal leaning want to do away with the supermajority vote threshold necessary to pass a bond in Idaho. Taxation through bonds must not be allowed without careful consideration, deep research, and at least a super majority to pass: Read
BRIAN ALMON, GEM STATE
The Next Battle Over Abortion. The pro-life movement needs to rediscover its identity (12/15/23). Now that the battle has moved to the states and formerly red state opinions in Kansas and Ohio recently passed pro-abortion bills, Idaho pro-life groups must build a coherent and positive message: Read
Are We Really Represented? Real power is far removed from the people (12/16/23). The federal system of passing legislation is BROKEN, with omnibus bills that slip in highly undesirable measures (recent example is National Defense Authorization Act approved by Senators Jim Risch, Mike Crapo, and Rep. Mike Simpson). The Idaho government is filled with legislators and administrators supported by the IACI corporatists, while those who defend freedom and small government are attacked. Brian concludes “It is in state government that we still see a glimmer of the system our founders intended, and it is here that we can still make a difference.” Read this article and think carefully about those you support in the May primary — it’s the primary that determines who wins in Idaho: Read | See Voting Guide for Tips

GOVERNOR BRAD LITTLE & Lt. GOVERNOR SCOTT BEDKE
Little / Bedke OPINION: Ditch the secret backroom dam breaching deals. The recent agreement between the Biden Administration and the states of Washington and Oregon and the tribes on dam breaching ignores Idaho’s needs, damages the supply of clean renewable energy, and does not sustain healthy salmon and steelhead populations. “Instead of working together to find common ground, the signatories to the agreement pandered to their political supporters and paid no attention to the REAL impacts dam removal would have on Idahoans. As Idaho state leaders, we are united in our strong opposition to removing the dams because it would eliminate a clean source of energy (hydropower) that powers the entire region, harm agriculture, and fundamentally change our economy for the worse.” They discuss a better process and reiterate their opposition to dam breaching by the Biden Administration, WA, and OR: Read | Related opposition from Sen Risch

🎬 TAKE ACTION. Urge Congress to CLOSE the border, enable states to resist, and DEFUND all efforts to house, feed, clothe, and educate those here illegally. Action Item
Summary / Excerpts:
No one changed federal immigration law when Joe Biden got elected… Biden and his underlings simply decided to ignore existing U.S. law and adopt an open borders policy. The result has been a catastrophe...Joe and his cabal of anti-American ideologues are just getting started.No administration in American history has ever so deliberately and so flagrantly broken federal immigration law. Biden and his fellow ideologues have now made it the de facto policy of the United States government to allow complete, unfettered immigration. Every one of the tens of thousands of individuals being “processed” at the border will be released within two or three days and moved onward into the interior of the country where they will become your responsibility to house, feed, clothe, and educate.

Study Proves COVID Shots Can Cause Off-Target Immune Responses. Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola (12/18/23): Read (PDF)
Summary: Early in 2021, Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., warned that replacing uracil with synthetic methylpseudouridine (codon optimization) in the COVID shots could cause severe health problems.
Recent research (released late 2023) confirms that using methylpseudouridine can trigger off-target aberrant protein production in 25% to 30% of people who took the COVID shot. The resulting antibodies may, in turn, trigger off-target immune reactions. (An anonymous source cited evidence suggesting Pfizer and BioNTech fabricated data to hide this “glitch” from regulators.)
Previous research demonstrated that codon optimization can result in misshaped and misfolded proteins that don’t match the natural protein being emulated, which can trigger immunogenicity that only becomes apparent years later.
