It was supposed to be a normal medical procedure. Dean Braxton had a persistent kidney stone, so the doctors decided to use high-energy shock waves to break it up. Prior to the procedure, doctors gave Dean some medicine to treat a kidney infection, but when they broke up the stone, an infection spread quickly through Dean’s body. He had sepsis. His organs rapidly shut down, and soon after, Dean died. Doctors worked hard to revive Dean. Normally, they stop resuscitation efforts after 30 minutes, but something drove the doctors to keep going. Then Dean Braxton came back after being dead for one ..read more

By James Wilson Editor’s note:  See our overview of JFK’s positions at the end of this article.  Justin Mitson, a Democrat candidate for the Idaho State Senate’s District 16, calls himself a JFK Democrat. Mitson says, “John Fitzgerald Kennedy was a classic Democrat, totally opposed to what we call cancel culture today, and utterly in favor of letting our views hang out so the best ideas win by popular acclaim.” He adds, “I have no use for Dems or GOPs who punish people – not for bad behavior – but for holding viewpoints with which the powers-that-be disagree.” He points out that John ..read more

After several years of attempting to move explicitly graphic (sexual) books out of the ready-reach of young children in our state’s schools and libraries, Idaho’s House and Senate finally passed meaningful legislation that restricts access to such books. House Bill 710, the Children’s School and Library Protection Act, creates civil liability for both public libraries as well as public schools if they allow conditions in which minor children can have easy access to what amounts to pornographic materials. Dismantling the nuclear family by changing the value system of our nation’s children throu ..read more

The Idaho legislature has been strangely silent about the imminent danger posed by the adoption of the Pandemic Treaty being proffered by the World Health Organization and the World Economic Forum (read the WEF’s article on the treaty here). This treaty is being promoted by large pharmaceutical corporations and organizations (such as the WEF) seeking top-down authoritarian rule, and it threatens the sovereignty of the United States, and by default, Idaho. How are they selling this treaty? One tactic is to call it an agreement instead of a treaty.  The U.S. Constitution mandates that the S ..read more

This article originally appeared in Redoubt News.  It is reprinted here with permission.  By Shari Dovale Bonner County Comrade Chairman Luke Omodt continues to best his own personal absurdity in his ongoing pursuit to be selected as the brightest bulb in the package.

By Daniel Bobinski  Watch the full interview here. (Also embedded below.) Recently I had the opportunity to interview Dave Hayes, popularly known as ‘Praying Medic.’  In this “get to know you” interview, Hayes explains the overnight experience that turned him from being a staunch Darwinist who mocked Christians into being a believer in Jesus. Not long afterwards, Jesus showed him how to pray for people and heal them, which resulted in thousands of miraculous healings – and, at times, no small amount of embarrassment. One of his first healings involved a woman who described the pain i ..read more

Op-Ed by Dorothy Moon Consider these facts: Recent videos show military aged young men from Africa crossing our southern border unimpeded. More than 37,000 Chinese nationals crossed our southern border illegally in 2023 alone. Debit cards of $10,000 apiece are being handed out to illegal immigrants in New York City. This week in San Francisco, a foreign national was sworn in as an official on the elections commission. What the hell is going on? This is not merely a frustration, not a minor political problem to worry about, this is an absolute outrage, an existential crisis for our nation! Am ..read more

By Daniel Bobinski  Watch the full interview here. (Also embedded below.) Dr. Karlyn Borysenko is an organizational psychologist, a knitter, and up until four years ago, she was a lifelong Democrat. In her daytime job, some of her workshops were on how to spot and prevent bullying. Ironically, she noticed something in her online knitting community. Anyone who held anything resembling a conservative viewpoint was ostracized, mocked, and cancelled. She realized this was bullying, and it bothered her. This was in 2020, and it was election season. Borysenko had just seen Joe Biden speak in he ..read more
