I watched the Notre Dame football game before coming to the Idaho state's game. Over 50,000 people at the Notre Dame game and nobody had a mask on. I got to the Holt arena where a few thousand people were in attendance and they were requiring Masks. Studies show cloth masks and surgical mask…
Idaho is getting some national news coverage lately, at a high price.
Yes, indeed, we have a lot to do in our beloved country, city, and state to arrive back at a time when we were more overall true to who we truly are or were meant to be as a nation. We have a lot of amends to make, in part for getting too filled with bravado that we failed to even learn abo…
Many Republicans want General Milley fired or to resign for taking the necessary precautions to protect the United States from an erratic and unstable Trump claiming Milley’s actions were treasonous. General Milley should be awarded the highest honor this country can bestow on any person! Tr…
How much is it costing the State of Idaho to 'fight' Covid-19 issues and who is going to pay the hospital bills of the uninsured/unvaccinated?
My name is Clayton Armstrong and I am a lifelong resident of Pocatello. I am a third generation of this community and with my children and grandchildren we have five generations here in the Pocatello/Chubbuck school district. I care deeply about our community and its core values, standards a…
Considering the very big issues facing our country and the world right now, one of the easiest things that we can do to help out is simply to get a vaccine.
After reading the article “The curious case of James Bodily's recruitment” I was left feeling awful and mad. I do agree that James is an exceptional ball player as I know and have watched him, but the wording of this article was very demeaning and belittling to the other players.
Unbelievably, the Biden Administration has created a hostage situation in Afghanistan when they surrendered Afghanistan to the Taliban terrorists. The Wyoming mother of a dead Marine said the following: Those of you that voted for Biden killed my son. Biden's open borders are allowing drugs …
As the Covid Delta and MU strain is spreading faster recently in Idaho and the death toll approaches frightening, our Governor calls on the people to “do the right thing”, whatever that means to those of us who care. Some of us are still wearing masks, waiting for our normal yearly flu shots…
The role of remembering is a deeply sad one as Downard's name is in the news. Established in 1931 by Mina and Byron Downard a civic minded Christian couple who served families for years later sold to their nephew George Knoff who owned it for 45 years ethical, professional families.
My address places me at the Rail Yard Apartments. My wife and I have been here going on a year now. We had never been here before renting the place. We arrived here from out of state. We are old, in our seventies, and when I asked about the train noise, I was told only one train a day. Not s…
Remember precepts and what they are? According to Webster they are in general principles intended to regulate behaviors or thoughts. Thoughts such as the ten commandments or the saying “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
There have been several “opinions” from the far-right supporters of President Donald Trump the last several weeks claiming how the liberal left (i.e., Democrats) are trying to gain control and completely “take over” the country. The far-right have also claimed how corrupt Democrats are since…
In 1931 Byron and Mina Downard opened a funeral home on N. Garfield St., across from Pocatello High School, and near the Congregational, Episcopal, Methodist, L.D.S. First Ward, Baptist, and St. Joseph’s Catholic churches. Byron was a rather exceptional character in terms of civic involvemen…
Idahoans have been saddled with The Terrible Ten: McGeachin, Giddings, Christensen, Nichols, Nate, Hanks, Scott, Moon, Wisniewski, and Zito - Elected officials gone rogue.
President Biden's executive order requiring large private businesses to ensure employees are either vaccinated for Covid-19 OR regularly test negative for the virus will surely be tested in the Courts. My conservative nature tells me government should let private businesses figure this out o…
Fear and violence are imbedded in obstructionist ideologies of Politicians and others seeking to overthrow the freedoms in America, to gain complete Authoritarian control of governing. Some trying to infuse a failed (as of yet undeclared) war criminal President that killed over 600,000 citiz…
