Patriots, here's a wake-up call that should send chills down every conservative's spine: even in blood-red Idaho, progressive bureaucrats are still pulling the strings behind the scenes.
Despite Republicans controlling every lever of elected power in the Gem State—the governor's mansion, both legislative chambers, and every single statewide office—the administrative state continues running on leftist autopilot. Sound familiar? It's the same deep state playbook we've seen weaponized against President Trump, now playing out in America's heartland.
The latest example? When Governor Brad Little had the backbone to withdraw the reappointment of 72-year-old Estella Zamora from the Idaho Human Rights Commission, progressive activists lost their minds. These are the same people who get crushed at the ballot box year after year, yet somehow maintain their death grip on bureaucratic power.
The Administrative State Never Sleeps
Here's the dirty truth folks don't want to admit: voting Republican isn't enough anymore. While we celebrate election victories, an army of unelected bureaucrats continues implementing the progressive agenda from within government agencies.
These aren't just paper-pushers—they're ideological warriors who view their government positions as platforms to advance leftist policies that voters explicitly rejected. They draft regulations, interpret laws, and make decisions that affect millions of Americans, all while hiding behind the myth of "non-partisan" civil service.
"The administrative state runs on autopilot, and progressives who never win at the ballot box keep their hands on levers of power."
President Trump understands this game better than anyone. That's why his DOGE initiative with Elon Musk isn't just about government efficiency—it's about dismantling the permanent bureaucracy that serves as the left's shadow government.
Time for Conservative Governors to Act
Every red state governor should be taking notes from this Idaho situation. It's not enough to win elections if you leave Obama-era holdovers and progressive true believers embedded throughout your administration.
The question every patriot should be asking: if deep state bureaucrats can entrench themselves in Idaho, what's happening in your state? And more importantly, what are we going to do about it?
