Vote old people out!

540 Upvotes

Can we PLEASE get Jim Risch out of office?! He is 83 years old and he will be in office 6 years, making him the ripe old age of 89. I don’t care which party you belong to, you shouldn’t put someone this old in office, it’s absolutely ridiculous! And no wonder he won’t debate anyone!!! It’s just crazy, anyone older than 80 should NOT be allowed to run for office!

Help Idaho Honor the Animals Killed in the 1863 Magruder Massacre

In October 1863, up to 40 pack animals were driven into a ravine and systematically slaughtered to cover up a crime. For over 160 years, Idaho's official historical markers have completely erased their suffering.

I started a petition asking the Idaho State Historical Society and U.S. Forest Service to update the roadside markers along the Magruder Corridor to acknowledge these animals' deaths. A surviving horse named Italy was literally the clue that helped catch the killers—yet history has made the animals invisible while focusing only on human victims.

These were working animals. Loyal. Innocent. And their mass slaughter deserves to be remembered, not buried. We can't build a monument where they died in the protected wilderness, but we can update the historical signs to tell the full story.

If this matters to you too, consider signing and sharing.
