What Idaho’s Primary Tells Us About America’s Culture Wars

The heavily Republican state booted 15 incumbents across the party’s ideological spectrum.

While the election led to net gains for hard-line members of the right, it also underscores how divided Idaho’s party remains.

🚨 Republicans have banned abortion even in medical emergencies.

Dems are running in 9 competitive legislative seats there.
Breaking the supermajority is the best Dems can hope to do here this cycle, but it's a start. Donate today.

Idaho youth like this give me hope. She tried to give the superintendent a banned book called "The Hand Maid's Tale” at her graduation ceremony. After he didn't take it, she left it at his feet and left. https://youtu.be/RQl74oEDstU?si=905qJT-XtXnu-S_X

LOL. My sister thinks she discovered the only EV charger in Franklin County, #Idaho. It’s in the parking lot behind the hot springs in tiny Riverdale, near Preston. Maybe that’s Napoleon Dynamite’s rig? Looks like something he would doodle.

Highlights from working the primary election in #Boise yesterday: A woman demanding to know if we were using Dominion voting machines (no), a sweet foreign-born voter who filled in every single square on her ballot (she got it right on her second try), and a man who got really pissed because he couldn’t vote both the Republican and Constitution party ballots. He ended his tantrum by saying “We won’t still have a country by November!” But overall, people were extremely polite. #Idaho #election

“'Leave it to the states' is the kind of messaging anti-abortion activists and their judicial helpmates love: It sounds clean, neat, reasonable. But when states enact near-total bans, when the federal government somehow loses its authority to block those bans even when they threaten women with serious illness — as Idaho is pushing for here —"

"The oral arguments over Idaho’s abortion ban and whether it trumps federal law that requires hospitals to give pregnant patients emergency medical case may have marked a new low for this court.

It was so bad that even Justice Amy Coney Barrett said she was 'shocked' by the position Idaho was taking."

[NYTimes]: Justice Alito raises the phrase “unborn child” in the federal emergency care law, suggesting it means “the hospital must try to eliminate any immediate threat to the child, but performing an abortion is antithetical to that duty.” The solicitor general says that the phrase “unborn child” refers to situations in which a pregnant woman goes to an emergency room and her pregnancy is in danger but her own health isn’t in danger. ...

[NYTimes]: Justice Sotormayor is vigorously challenging the Idaho lawyer’s argument. She is saying that Idaho’s ban would prevent providing an abortion in severe situations when women would otherwise risk losing their reproductive organs or have other serious consequences. by Pam Belluck https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/04/24/us/abortion-supreme-court-idaho/ee5c22ba-7444-5979-b0bf-8f3961bc2e78?smid=url-share #idaho #scotus

[NYTimes]: Justice Sotormayor asks Idaho’s lawyer if it’s true that the state’s ban would prevent abortion in a situation where a woman would otherwise lose an organ or have serious medical complications. Idaho’s lawyer admits it would prevent abortion in those circumstances. “Yes, Idaho law does say that abortions in that case aren’t allowed,” he said. By Pam Belluck

Their enemy wasn't each other: there was plenty of grass for each.

No, their enemy was the predator that sought to run down, maim, kill and eat them. And for that reason, they were always vigilant.

Though they grazed, at least one of them was always watching, ready to warn the group. And they all were prepared to react.

Interesting, "space operations" in Boise, Idaho. I wonder who is launching rockets out there.

Politico— Democrats are running candidates in every state legislative district for the first time in at least 30 years, seeing opportunity in an extreme GOP agenda.

“The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that #Idaho’s ban on #gender-affirming care for #transgender minors can go into effect, overruling a lower court while the long-term constitutionality of the state’s law is still being litigated.”

After U.S. Supreme Court ruling, Idaho’s ban on gender-affirming care is in effect
