Thank you Jim for another informative commentary.

If I had known beforehand who the subject of this piece was, I would have guessed it was trump. Close, but it’s Labrador (no surprise). Yep, just another sycophant who thinks he can thumb his nose at the law because he’s “special” like trump.

What first annoys me is that Labrador is willing to toss aside his obligations to the State of Idaho in order to fulfill his personal delusions of grandeur. The second thing that annoys me is that the taxpayers have to pay for his folly.

Let’s show him the door in 2026.

As has been For DECADES, this Controlling Party of TRUMPLICANS,

do not Believe the Existing laws apply to them.

Dictatorial Power is Their Objective.

Not just in IDAHO, Nation Wide. Has anyone watched Crapo, or Risch holding Committee Hearings, and how they act ? Try it, it is Shocking.

Great essay.

Would love to see a post on the non-financial provisions buried in Trump’s BBB. I have only seen a couple of mentions, and I think they need to be illuminated if there is any chance of eliminating them in the Senate version.

Everything about Trump's BBB is disgusting. I have seen the list of provisions hidden in this thing and if it passes as is we are all under Trump's thumb with no way out. It will be Hitler all over again and no one to save us because Trump has pissed off the world around us.

Thank you Mr. Jones. I sure hope that somehow, Labradoodle can be voted into irrelevance at some near point in time.
