In this episode of the Spudservative Podcast, host Lyle dives deep into the outrageous decision by Jerome County officials to ban weapons in the historic old courthouse—a blatant violation of Idahoans' God-given right to bear arms under the 2nd Amendment. We'll break down how this overreach ignores Idaho's ironclad firearms preemption laws, leaving law-abiding citizens defenseless in public spaces they own. Is this the thin edge of the wedge for more government tyranny in the Gem State? Lyle unpacks the facts, shares listener stories, and calls for action to push back against these unconstitutional power grabs.

For the full legal details, check out Idaho Code 18-3302J, which reserves firearms regulation strictly for the state.

Why does an engineer from Idaho choose to record local and state political discussions in his free time?

This episode of Spudservative: Idaho Politics Unpeeled digs into the Southwest Intertie Project (SWIP) power lines threatening Magic Valley’s farmland and communities. These 500kV towers could pave the way for the Lava Ridge Wind Turbine project’s revival—something no Idahoan wanted. We break down why Jerome County’s permit delay isn’t enough to stop this.

Show up to the Jerome County Commissioners Meeting on October 7, 2025, at 6:00 PM (300 N. Lincoln Ave., Jerome, ID) to say no to SWIP.
