2026/08/24

This fall’s Senate races could reshape American politics—nine swing states hold the key to control of the chamber, with Democrats needing just four wins to flip the majority. Republicans currently hold the edge, but President Trump’s approval ratings and shifting voter priorities on economy, healthcare, and immigration could tilt the balance. With toss-up states and historic trends working against the president’s party, every vote counts—and November 3 could be the tipping point for the next

A federal judge is slamming the Trump administration for rushing new mail-in ballot rules right before Election Day, calling it self-induced chaos. Despite an earlier injunction blocking such changes, the Postal Service moved forward with its final rule — a move the judge says will confuse voters and undermine confidence in the election. Voting rights groups are demanding immediate enforcement of the injunction, warning of real harm as ballots begin to go out in just 73 days. Meanwhile, the

2026/08/24

Montana’s Fish and Wildlife Commission just slashed the wolf hunting quota to 300 this season — a compromise between science, politics, and pressure from ranchers and conservationists. New population data from iPOM 2.0 suggests past wolf counts were inflated, sparking debate over whether the model is too cautious or overdue for reform. While some celebrate the numbers as proof wolves aren’t as numerous as once thought, others fear the new limits could undermine recovery efforts. With sub-quotas

Stay safe on Idaho roads by ditching your phone while driving—since 2020, using any mobile device is illegal unless it’s an emergency. Stick to Bluetooth or wait until pulled over, or face fines up to $75 and possible license loss. Know your road lines too: yellow separates opposing traffic, dashed means passing is allowed (but only if the other side has a solid line), double solid? Don’t pass. White lines?

Hefty’s beloved ReNew Orange Bag program is shutting down nationwide — including in Boise since 2018 — because the company can’t build up recycling infrastructure fast enough to handle demand. This means tricky plastics like candy wrappers and foam packaging will now head to the trash. Since 2018, Boise’s program kept roughly 2,000 tons of plastic out of landfills. Officials are urging residents to rethink their consumption habits. You can still buy bags until 2026, and Hefty will collect them

Lance Armstrong’s empire of lies collapsed in 2012 when the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency handed him a lifetime ban and stripped his seven Tour de France titles — a verdict sealed by mountains of evidence, including his role as a doping ring leader and the taxpayer-funded nature of his team.
