I’ll have more reporting on this soon, but just wanted to quickly share some of the frankly alarming initial findings from the Idaho Department of Insurance’s mandatory data call earlier this year. Here’s the big one: a ~9% drop in total policies IN A SINGLE CALENDAR YEAR (1/4sh)

Our parks belong to all of us — not to polluters, vandals, or poachers.

The firings are on at the Department of Energy. Nearly 200 staffers received layoff notices. Five offices also received “general reduction in force notices” — with no clear sense of what comes next.
