Two years after the attempted assassination of then-candidate Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, a new inspector general report is shedding light on the security failures leading up to the attack.
The report says the Secret Service missed more than 100 radio transmissions from local law enforcement about the suspected gunman and received only a handful of calls and texts warning of the threat in the lead up.
Firefighter Corey Comperatore lost his life protecting his family, and two others were wounded. Investigators conclude those communication failures and other security lapses represented missed opportunities that may have prevented the attack.
Idaho Young Republicans Oppose Pro-Abortion Ballot Initiative
Boise, Idaho – The Idaho Young Republicans announced their strong opposition to the Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act Initiative appearing on the November 2026 ballot.
This measure is a pro-abortion proposal that would legalize abortion on demand up to fetal viability and expand access under broad exceptions, rolling back Idaho’s current protections for unborn life. Cloaked in misleading “freedom” and “privacy” language, the initiative prioritizes ideology over the lives of innocent babies and weakens safeguards for women and families.
As young conservatives, the Idaho Young Republicans believe in building a future that protects the most vulnerable. True freedom does not come at the expense of innocent life. The group urges all Idahoans to reject this radical expansion of abortion and stand strong for life, family, and responsibility.
The Idaho Young Republicans encourage voters to cast a NO vote on the Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act this November.

A new inspector general report released two years after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, says the Secret Service missed more than 100 radio transmissions warning about the suspected gunman.
The attack killed firefighter Corey Comperatore as he shielded his family and wounded two others. Investigators say communication failures and security lapses represented missed opportunities to stop the shooting.
Idaho, I want your feedback.
The House is set to vote this week on legislation to make daylight saving time the new standard time, preventing the twice-yearly clock changes.
Do you support making daylight saving time permanent nationwide?
Four years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court settled this issue for good. In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Court held the Constitution says nothing about abortion and left the decision on how to regulate abortion to the states. Relying on that authority, Idaho enacted laws to defend unborn children while still allowing mothers to make difficult decisions when their own lives are at risk.
Dr. Stacy Seyb is now asking a federal judge to defy that ruling and hand doctors the power to decide when an unborn child’s life ends, based on nothing more than their own shifting, undefined standards. Seyb also asked the Court to allow abortions when a doctor diagnoses an unborn child with a significant disability. He told the court he sees no point in continuing a pregnancy under such circumstances, questioning at trial, “What is the point?” Our filing calls this exactly what it is: an attempt to use the courts to grant legal cover for eugenics, a position that has no place in Idaho.
Seyb’s testimony at trial shows that he failed to learn what Idaho’s laws actually required, and that he operated on a fundamental misunderstanding of the requirements of the law. That failure to understand Idaho’s law is actively harming women. Idaho law already allows doctors acting in their good faith medical judgment to save a mother’s life, without requiring a physician to wait until her death is imminent before performing a life-saving abortion. The Idaho Supreme Court settled that standard more than three years before this trial began. But Seyb testified that he never read that ruling and remains confused about Idaho’s laws. That misunderstanding led Seyb to fly a patient to Utah for care he could—and should—have given her in Idaho, resulting in the patient being septic when she arrived in Utah. Unrebutted expert testimony at trial confirmed that Seyb’s decision to fly that patient to Utah, instead of legally performing the life-saving abortion in Idaho, increased her risk of complications and death.
Our brief also notes that Idaho’s law has coincided with a dramatic drop in maternal deaths since Dobbs. Idaho’s pregnancy-related mortality rate has plummeted from 18.7 deaths per 100,000 live births in 2018 to 4.29 in 2024, and Idaho’s combined rate over the past two years runs well below the national average.
Finally, the brief explains in depth that there is no historical support in the history and traditions of the United States to support Seyb’s arguments that Idaho’s laws are unconstitutional. Rather, the clear history in the U.S. prior to the now overturned Roe v. Wade decision is that states were always free to regulate abortion. Idaho’s laws protecting unborn life, while allowing for an abortion when necessary to save the life of the mother, are consistent with centuries of U.S. legal history and tradition.
While the "Ivory Tusk" Club may be a thing of the past, fundraising dinners certainly aren't!

Looks like F*cebook decided overnight that we weren't real after becoming more active again. Thankfully, we're back!
We'll keep sharing Republican news at the local, state, and national levels, plus what's happening around Meridian.
The enactment of the Working Families @TaxCuts one year ago today unlocked new opportunities for families and businesses across Idaho.
Since then, we’ve seen businesses scale up operations and had a historic tax filing season where tens of millions of Americans kept more of their hard-earned money.
And with new initiatives like the Rural Health Transformation Program and Trump Accounts just beginning to launch, the best is yet to come.
Meridian Republicans helped out with Idaho Republican Party/ Ada County Republicans float at the Boise Parade!
Heard more cheers than the Dems did!😎
