News From Idaho

In case you are wondering, no, I am not in Idaho. I am in Arizona spending a few days with my Cousin, a long ago childhood super best friend.

I am going to work on producing a video from this stop. However, I just had to put the following into writing.

While here, the TV was on and there was a news report coming across the screen.

Apparently, the governor of Idaho, Governor Brad Little, a Republican, was out of town at a conference in Memphis this week.

His Lt. Governor, Janice McGeachin wrote an executive order, her right to do while he was out of town, revoking and remove all mask mandates across the state of Idaho. Again, run by a Republican…who want’s his citizens muzzled.

This is a gutsy move by McGeachin.

She is going to challenge him in 2022 for the top spot.

Get this.

Governor Little returns and immediately rescinds her order, again imposing a mask mandate on the population of Idaho.

I am quoting now from Mr. Little.

"The action that took place while I was traveling this week is not gubernatorial. The action that took place was an irresponsible, self-serving political stunt," Little said. "Taking the earliest opportunity to act solitarily on a highly politicized, polarizing issue without conferring with local jurisdictions, legislators, and the sitting Governor is, simply put, an abuse of power."

"This kind of over-the-top executive action amounts to tyranny – something we all oppose."

Let me emphasize his last statement again.

"This kind of over-the-top executive action amounts to tyranny – something we all oppose."

I then have a quote from Robert Anthony;

”ARE YOU F-ing KIDDING ME?”

In the event you aren’t certain on the definition of tyranny, let me quick grab it for you from Websters

Tyranny-

: oppressive power

: oppressive power exerted by government

: a rigorous condition imposed by some outside agency or force

So the Lt Governor sets her people free from the power of the government.

The Governor comes back and re-imposes the oppressive mandate using the power of his office.

And the former is the tyranny? She’s the Tyrant?

Holy cow. You can’t make this crap up.

I suspect Mr. Little will be out of a job come 2022. He ought to be. Idaho, do you hear me?

He’s truly an idiot.

Idiot-

A Foolish or Stupid Person

If this kind of thing isn’t straight out of the pages of Orwell’s 1984, I don’t know what is.

Boy.

What a bonehead.

Have a great day and I’ll be posing awesome images again for you soon.
