 I went out to the Josephine County Animal Shelter and walked the facility while talking with staff, with Commissioner Gary Richardson there answering questions as we went.

 You’ll see what they deal with day to day and how the place actually runs. They’ve got about 9 staff members and a volunteer base somewhere in the 150–200 range, handling thousands of animals every year. It’s a small crew doing a lot of work, and volunteers are a big part of keeping it going.

 One thing people don’t always think about is animal control officers. They’re the ones responding to calls across the county and dealing with situations most people never see. If that service gets cut back, those calls don’t go away. They fall on local police and the Sheriff’s Office, which ends up costing taxpayers a lot more. A lot of people in this community love animals, myself included, and want to make sure they’re taken care of and safe. 

That’s really what this comes down to. What stood out most is how much things have changed. Years ago, euthanasia rates were around 70% or higher. Today it’s down to roughly 3–5%. Now they’re dealing with more animals coming in and rising costs. 

The focus is keeping things where they are and making sure it doesn’t start sliding backward. That’s why continued support, and even having a real conversation about increasing funding for animal control, matters. If you live in Josephine County, this directly affects your community.

 Ben Edtl joins me to break down what he says is corruption inside Oregon politics, and why the problem isn’t just Democrats. 

See the full interview VIDEO here on Youtube : https://youtu.be/4mGnhO_5MY4

We get into internal fights within the Republican Party, PAC money, leadership issues, and the people pulling strings behind the scenes. We talk about Free Oregon, what happened to it, and how movements get taken over or shut down. 

We also dig into specific names, political deals, and why many candidates end up falling in line instead of standing up. 

Election integrity comes up as well. We discuss vote by mail, lack of transparency, and why people are losing trust in the system. Ben also talks about lawsuits, investigations, and what he’s personally been involved in over the past few years. This is a direct, uncensored conversation about power, control, and what people in Oregon are actually up against.

HEY EVERYONE we’ve got a few things to get into today.

We’re talking about the SAVE Act and what people are saying about it. The Dems are saying women won’t be able to vote after getting married because updating their voter registration is too complicated. 

What?!?

Then we get into the three billion genders the Dems are demanding we recognize, yet gender changing surgeries are still only doing operations for two genders amid the plethora of other genders.

Also sharing a real story about a crazy encounter with a friend at Fred Meyer in Grants Pass when mid conversation a liberal white woman jumps in to correct us.

Patriots Conference is March 28th at the Josephine County Fairgrounds in the Floral Building. Doors open at 9AM and it goes until 4PM. Get tickets at

New episode of the podcast is out.

Today I talk about some of the projects connected to State Representative Dwayne Yunker and how they impact Josephine County. Infrastructure upgrades tied to the Spalding Industrial Park and support for county fairgrounds are the kinds of things that help communities grow, even if they don’t always make big headlines.

We also talk briefly about the Patriots Conference and the awesome gift baskets some of our local PCPs are putting together for attendees.

Local politics, community projects, and a little behind-the-scenes discussion about what’s happening here in Josephine County.

I’m finally back with a new episode of the Josephine County Republican Podcast after taking a little break and spending some time in Curaçao.

In this episode I talk about something that is becoming a serious problem in our country and even here in our own community. Misinformation on the internet.

Social media is full of memes, headlines, screenshots, and viral posts that are designed to make people angry before they ever check if something is actually true. In this episode I explain what a meme is, why they spread so quickly, and why both the left and the right need to slow down and verify things before sharing them.

We also talk about a few recent examples of misinformation circulating online and why it is important to go directly to real sources like the FBI, DOJ, and official statements instead of trusting viral posts.

I also share a few photos from my trip to Curaçao and talk about some possible upcoming interviews including Josephine County Commissioners Colene Martin and Gary Richardson along with a possible interview with Dr. Frank.

Also coming up very soon is the Patriots Conference on March 28 at the Josephine County Fairgrounds.
