Up until a few days before the Idaho primary, True Idaho News editor Daniel Bobinski had no intention writing anything that resembled an endorsement. But, as he stated in his a previous podcast, with all the lies that were flying around, Bobinski decided he had to say something. In this podcast, Bobinski elaborates with great transparency on the article he wrote, “An In-Depth Analysis of Governor Candidates.” Specific people discussed include Brad Little, Ed Humphreys, and even Lynn Bradescu.

Both Bobinski and co-host Josh Gibbons kept fairly mum during the campaign, but in this podcast (post-primary), they both stated that they believed candidate Ed Humphreys had a difficult time because he no discernable track record — and didn’t seem eager to establish one. In fact, what little track record Humphreys did establish was dismantling several conservative powerbases. Gibbons provides some key insights on this.

Statewide, conservatives lost in the executive branch races (save for the Attorney General’s office), mostly due to LIES. However, solid conservative victories did happen in the legislature.

In Canyon County, Tina Lambert was identified by Gibbons as solid conservative and “the real deal.” Also, Jacyn Gallagher’s win in District 9 over incumbent House Rep Ryan Kirby was a great victory. She didn’t move to Idaho with the intention of running for office, but saw that nobody else was stepping up to challenge the Far-Left Republican Kirby.

Also discussed: District 9 Rep. Judy Boyle, who fought off nasty set of lies from Scott Syme, and Rachel Hazlip, who as a 24-year-old newcomer, got 44% of the vote against Rep. Mike Moyle, who is the House Majority Leader and may be the next Speaker of the House. Hazlip proved herself to be wiser than her years and definitely has a future in Idaho politics.

Bobinski and Gibbons also discussed concerns about the Republican winner in District 14-A, Ted Hill, who is rumored to believe that it was “his turn” to serve in the legislature. Concerns included his ability to listen to his constituents, and also his position on homeschooling freedoms. Both agreed that Hill’s voting should be observed closely to see if he really aligns with conservative values.

Another hats-off goes to Jackie Davidson in District 16, who beat Richard Shurtleff for the GOP side of the ticket in the House. Shurtleff had made misogynistic statements about Davidson not being able to win against the current incumbent Democrat in that district.

On this episode of the True Idaho News Podcast, Daniel Bobinski and co-host Josh Gibbons debrief the Idaho Primary.

Many in Idaho are down about the losses on the statewide offices – Four of the five major statewide seats went into the hands of the establishment, but on the upside, the Attorney General’s seat went to Raul Labrador, and we hope that Labrador will not view himself as the Governor’s personal attorney (as did Lawrence Wasden).

Also covered:  The overwhelming amount of LYING that was dished out about true conservatives was rampant. Scott Syme spent $200,000 smearing Judy Boyle (Dist. 9) and one of the most liberal House reps (Syme) tried to paint himself a conservative and claimed endorsements he didn’t have. In a word, Syme was extremely dishonest. So was Scott Bedke (Lt. Gov race) and Brad Little (Governor’s race), Chuck Winder (Dist. 20) and the three slimebuckets who lied about Rep’s Ron Nate, Kerrey Hanks, and Chad Christensen.

As Gibbons said, the liars were desperate. They knew they couldn’t win on their stances, so they had to lie.

Bobinski announced that he’s in talks with several conservative legislators to explore better ways to educate voters on where to get true conservative voter info.

In addition to the Attorney General's office, the big wins were in the Senate, with at least a dozen strong conservatives getting elected and many of the big-government left-friendly stalwarts losing their seats. It’s very likely that Chuck Winder will not be the Senate President Pro Tempore in the upcoming session.  Bobinski and Gibbons review some of the important seat changes.

Bobinski closed the podcast by talking about the Christian consensus that permeated the early States, and how the country’s founders knew that our form of government would not do well unless the people were thirsting after the righteous of God found in Scripture.

Today’s show features host Daniel Bobinski, co-host Josh Gibbons, and special guest, Asia Williams, candidate for County Commissioner in Bonner County.
The discussion opens talking about Pastor Steve Bradshaw, candidate for governor, has not been honest and has not kept his word. According to people who’ve recently left his church, Bradshaw has “gone off the rails.”
Williams and Bobinski both spoke about how the country and the state need to return to Constitutional, Christian values.  The country was founded on those principles, and it can’t operate unless those principle are in place.  Williams pointed out that this concept is central to how our education system should operate.  That thinking make us who we are as a country.
Unfortunately, allowing Black Lives Matter and the violence that accompanies that movement has become the new normal.
Also discussed:
• The LIES that Brad Little is feeding Idahoans.
• The political hanky-panky going on in Bonner County.
• The problems with accepting ARPA funds.  
Williams pointed out that one condition attached to government entities receiving ARPA funds is that the entity accepting the money must grow by 7%!!   Restated: Any government agency that accepts ARPA funds must, as a condition of accepting the money, agree to GROW by 7%.
This is an engaging podcast and we hope to hear more from Asia Williams in the future.
