Combat veteran Rep-elect for Idaho's 25th Legislative District Seat B. Be bold, be brave, be free!

[Idaho Gang of Eight @IdahoGangOf8]

@Zglennevere on Daniel Horowitz today. How can a state as ruby red as Idaho not get basic immigration reform bills passed?

Because Idaho’s legislature is controlled by massive special interest groups.

Vote for real conservative republicans on May 19!

Sen. Christy Zito, D8
Rep. Faye Thompson, D8
Rep. Lucas Cayer, D11
Rep. Kent Marmon, D11
Sen. Glenneda Zuiderveld, D24

Sen. Josh Kohl, D25
Rep. David Leavitt, D25

If you’ve been following the headlines, you’ve probably heard that Idaho “cut education” in 2026. That’s not what actually happened. Nearly 49% of Idaho’s General Fund goes to K-12 public schools, and the only K-12 reductions were due to declining enrollment, which affected the funding formula.

The criticism is really about IDLA.

After a rapid COVID-era expansion, IDLA was scaled back and refocused on its core services: graduation requirement courses, advanced classes, rural access, and credit recovery.

Rural schools were not harmed.

In a legislature more moderate than most Idahoans realize, the Gang of Eight went into the 2026 session with a clear plan: hold the line on spending, defend Idaho values, and put Idaho families first. We became the most consistent voice for real reform.

I will actively oppose and work to overturn any ballot initiative that seeks to legalize abortion. I believe in the sanctity of life, not as a political slogan, but as a fundamental duty of government. If we fail to protect the most vulnerable among us, then we have failed in our responsibility as a society.

[Red Range TV @redrangetv]

Idaho State Senate candidate Scott Herndon (@HerndonforIdaho) discusses whether he would overturn the abortion initiative were it to pass in November. #idleg #idpol

[Matt Edwards @TrueMattEdwards]

Will the people of Idaho put up with this intimidation?

Is this what Idaho really is? Bullied by industries propped up by Illegal Immigrant workforce?

[🇺🇸 David Leavitt 🇺🇸 @theDavidLeavitt]

Public service comes with real responsibility, and at times, real cost.

I wrote this to explain a principle that often goes unspoken, and why it matters for those who choose to serve without compromise.

This isn’t hypothetical.

The letter to her husband BigAg confirms customers asked he be removed specifically because of her political role.

Not performance. Politics.

[Michael Angiletta @MichaelAngil]

An Idaho lawmaker says she’s being pressured financially for supporting E-Verify and opposing illegal immigration.

If true, it explains everything:

Support enforcement → pressure
Majority-backed bills → no hearings

This isn’t about policy.
It’s about who runs the system.

Protecting our children depends on the strength of parental rights and the family now more than ever!

[🇺🇸 David Leavitt 🇺🇸 @theDavidLeavitt]

Disappointing to see a co-sponsor use his position as chairman to hold a bill that belonged to all of its co-sponsors, the body as a whole, and the citizens who supported it.

I’m proud of my colleagues who stood on principle and attempted to call the bill out of committee. Idahoans deserve transparency, not backroom negotiations.

[Citizens Alliance of Idaho @Citizens_Idaho]

Senate Rule 14(e) was used today as Senator Zito called for H745 "No More Taxpayer Dollars for Teacher's Unions" to be brought from Senator Foreman's committee drawer to the floor for a vote.

Senator Foreman explanation to hold this crucial? "Promising negotiations and work with the teacher's union."

How do you think those negotiations will end up for Idaho taxpayers and families?

[Idaho Gang of Eight @IdahoGangOf8]

The Idaho House voted 41–27–2 to strengthen cooperation with ICE.

The bill requires Idaho law enforcement agencies to apply to partner with ICE through the 287(g) program, helping identify and transfer removable offenders in local jails.

Despite strong support in the House, Pro Tem Kelly Anthon sent the bill to Senate State Affairs, where it is unlikely to receive a hearing.

Rep. @clintforidaho lays out why this bill matters.

Idaho should cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. Contact the Chair of Senate State Affairs, Senator Jim Guthrie, at 208-332-1326 and ask him to give H659 a hearing.

[🇺🇸 David Leavitt 🇺🇸 @theDavidLeavitt]

@LibertyBelle208 @DaleHawkinsID did an awesome job today with H659! Lot of great debates in support of his bill!

Goal #22 of communism:

"Discredit culture by degrading artistic expression. Eliminate beauty and replace it with shapeless and meaningless forms."

A godless ideology always attacks the foundations of faith.

Christianity cherishes beauty, meaning, and truth. This is why communism works to erase them.

😞 Wat lelijk, een samenleving die haar waarden verloochent…
⚠️ Deze kerststal is vreselijk en een belediging voor onze tradities. Daarom vraagt de @MR_officiel dat ze meteen wordt vervangen, of anders ten laatste voor de editie van volgend jaar.
❌ Het is onaanvaardbaar om onze tradities telkens opnieuw te zien afbrokkelen omwille van zogenaamde inclusiviteit.
🎄 Een inclusieve samenleving is er een die mensen samenbrengt — en Kerstmis is hét feest dat dat doet.
😩 Die figuren zonder gezicht lijken meer op zombies bij Brusselse stations dan op een echte kerststal.
👊 Geef ons onze kerststal en onze KERSTMARKT terug!

I showed up just to sign the banner. That’s all I intended to do.
But after listening to Charlie Kirk’s memorial and seeing the moment take shape, I went home, changed, and came back with a speech I thought I’d never give.
I wasn’t dressed for a stage. I didn’t look polished. But I spoke anyway.
And now, I get to share it with you.
