Achilles has those of us in ID pretty hopeful, or more hopeful than we've been in a long time.

Loss of hope. People don't think it will get better. Republicans are realizing Trump isn't going to save them and EVERYONE is freaked out about how AI is going to impact jobs.

Women in large portions of the state now have to travel an hour or more not only to give birth, but for any kind of gynecological care. You can imagine the impact this will have on women surviving childbirth but also surviving cancers normally dx by a gynecologist.

We've lost 55% of our high risk obstetricians and 3 hospitals have closed labor and delivery departments.

Went to an event discussing impacts on physicisns of ID strict abortion ban. ID has now lost 43% of our OBGYNs in 2 years. Up from 35% in May 2026 and 25% in May 2025

I often have to vote for someone who thinks they have rights over my body. But that candidate is better than the one who thinks that AND wants to tell parents that vaccines cause autism. I'm not going to choose harm for others bc I can't choose no harm for me and people like me.

Yes. Again, that part of the process is over. The candidates expressed their opinions, people voted in the primary, and most people preferred this candidate.

The time for that is the primary. That's over. We're in the general now and your choice is a republican or a Democrat. Let me ask you how not voting for Kamala worked for the free Palestine voters. The families with Trans members in ID wish they had a dem weak on Trans rights to vote for. WAKE UP

I'm in Idaho and I absolutely cannot believe anyone would still consider not voting for a Dem, regardless of the issue. I'm living in the MAGA dream world, and if you think trans people are safe here you've lost your damn mind. Dem is better. Every Republican supports MAGA. 2 party system, PICK D

There are 200+ types of dementia. Trump shows signs of FTD. Confabulation is one of the symptoms. Not all dementia types do this and not all individuals with FTD do it. Definitely not excusing this big fat lying liar. But it is just one more symptom of FTD that has been showing up on the regular.

Becky McKim Harro @dobecow.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
This is dementia. Trump has always been a liar. But he's told the same 9/11 story for years (about being happy his tower was the tallest). This is confabulation - in dementia, you mix up the real and false to make a new story. He's mixing up the shooting event where SS carried him off with 9/11.

This already happened in one of our library systems in north Idaho. Not only that, but they locked LGBTQ books in a closet. They now have separate cards for young people, allowing them limited access to materials. The library board has explicitly stated it is going by Christian values.

The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

At this point we can all spot someone trying to appeal to whatever the focus groups are telling them. Young people are particularly sensitive to ingenuousness, I think b/c they've been raised on the internet and were basically born cynical. Content of beliefs matter less than that they are real.

Right b4 the ACA went into effect my husband and I were laid off. As our COBRA coverage was ending I received a letter from my insurer saying I was uninsurable due to chronic migraines, of all things. I guess I'd had 1 too many tests or hospitalizations. ACA saved us.

I 'm in north Idaho where masking mandates ended in May 2020. And yet they still bitch and complain bc other places required masks. These assholes picketed our hospital bc they had masking rules. Meanwhile we had so many sick and dying the hospital commandeered AL/MC facilities as covid wards.

The dementia symptoms are clear each day as well. In January I would see a few examples each week. Now each appearance is laden with dementia symptoms. Early signs of FTD are behavioral, rather than memory, so the fact that we're seeing memory issues now is significant.

I live in ruby red north Idaho, and see zero reason to "reach across the aisle" to mourn lindsey graham. It changes zero minds and the assholes who threw all their convictions away for Trump need to see that it fucks up their legacy. You can't win hearts and minds with weakness.

Today Trump said he "just finished a perfect physical at Walter Reed, I do ​it every six months, and I requested another Cognitive Test..." If it was May, not having a realistic sense of the passing of time is clear dementia symptom. If it was today, wtf getting another test done so soon?

When families have someone with dementia in their life, the #1 reason they don't do anything (take away the car keys, move them to assisted living or memory care) is because it would inconvenience them and they don't want the backlash that comes with it. No different here.

Those of us in restrictive states are hurting already. Here in ID we lost 33% of our ob-gyns in a 2 year period. We have less than 30 OBs treating nearly 600,000 residents across rural areas. Women are crossing borders so they can have the procedures they need for late-term miscarriages.

He's disgusting. What I hate about him (and the others like him) is they make parents of autistic children feel like it is somehow their fault for eating a red M&M or taking an anti-depressant or vaccinating their children. We're back to the 'refrigerator mom' theory of autism. It is just as gross.
