If you believe public servants (medical providers, nurses, social workers, police, firefighters and paramedics) are the tyrants, youโ€™ve been duped politically. Saving innocent children from peril is always the right thing to do.

To be clear, our testing is not massive or good in idaho. Coronavirus is on the rise because we are experiencing aggressive community spread after ending the stay at home order. This messaging is wrong, dangerous and not helping the problem.

There is a rise in Coronavirus cases because our testing is so massive and so good, far bigger and better than any other country. This is great news, but even better news is that death, and the death rate, is DOWN. Also, younger people, who get better much easier and faster!

IFF is a propaganda machine for a few wealthy Idahoans. Publicity over policy. Intimidation over ideas. Boogieman threats in Republican primaries to push the agenda of a few. Wayneโ€™s rhetoric is designed to cause division. Thatโ€™s how he gets paid.

This is leadership! This takes courage! The spineless Senators and Representatives who privately know Trump is a con man but follow him because of their own political concerns should be ashamed and resign.

The problem: 1- Statewide mask mandate = easy, no brainer but politically toxic for a GOP Gov under Trump 2- Strategy to test, trace & isolate = incredibly difficult, requires strategy/plan & weโ€™re too late Idaho desperately needs BOTH and both require TOP down leadership.

I find it increasingly awkward to discuss Trump w/ fellow Republicans. When I read his tweets, it feels like Iโ€™m back on my psych inpatient rotation doing daily rounds on delusional patients. It was always sad but the closest thing in my life I can relate to his state of mind.

One lesson from the last 4 yrs, words matter. The words I heard tonight from the President-elect were spot on. Especially, โ€œwe lead not by the example of our power, but by the power of our example.โ€ Healing starts with words and I liked what I heard and felt tonight.
