This morning, veterans gathered at Headquarters for a flapjack breakfast and morning briefing where we had a conversation about leadership, service, and getting this country back on track. Thank you to all the veterans who came to talk with me - it is an honor have your support.

If Risch can't defend his record for 90 minutes, he doesn't deserve six more years of Idaho's trust.

“No more foreign wars,” they said. Then they spent $45.1 billion of your money on a war that has made us all poorer and less safe — all rubber stamped by your senator, Jim Risch. Don’t stand for it. Let’s bring our soldiers home and send these chicken hawks packing. Link in bio 🔗

Idaho has a choice to make. Who do you think will best represent you? Who do you think understands your family's financial struggles? Who do you think understands 21st century issues? Who do you think will work harder to serve you? Hint: it's not the old guy. #idpol @achillesid.bsky.social

Yes, Idaho is reliably Republican — and no one has benefited from that more than Risch, who has successfully navigated Idaho’s GOP power structure since Richard Nixon was in the White House ...Risch has largely abdicated in service to Trump. There have been no hearings into the strategy of the war.

Don't ever drive through deep water. Engines compress air and fuel with pistons. Water does not compress, so the piston (and the connecting rod) will simply fail catastrophically, destroying the motor and leaving you stranded in several feet of water in a totaled car.
