SPOT ON, Brian! You've done a great service to Eagle voters by supporting Jason Pierce's accomplishments and exposing Brad Pike's campaign against his own previous decisions as Pike seeks to attract low-information voters. Such voters may regret their choice if they vote for Pike (remember those many regretful Joe Biden voters?).

If Eagle is to thrive and retain its conservative small-town character, voters must see through the Facebook and NextDoor smoke screens and use their independent thinking skills.

Re-Elect Mayor Jason Pierce. Not only is he a great mayor, but Jason Pierce also is one of the kindest, most principled, and most visionary city leaders I've ever met. I hope Eagle voters will come out in droves to support Jason Pierce, a man who uses the word "love" and "Eagle" in the same sentence every time he speaks with citizens.

I also hope -- after all the dust settles -- that Brad Pike will apologize to Jason Pierce for his misguided campaign that has unfairly maligned a good man. I know Jason would forgive him.

Hope this helps!

P.S. You will see a little padlock next to articles that are paywalled. (Example: The Devil’s Bargin has a padlock on it today. Took me a while to figure that out :-)

Thanks for the help. I have some neighbors that are asking me to send them everything I can about Idaho politics, and Brian has been such a find.

I agree! Brian is awesome.

Happy to know you have such engaged neighbors and you are helping them learn!

For more politics, action items and health topics (Idaho and beyond), feel free to also send them to another Substack, which includes links to most of Brian’s articles plus other great writers, podcasts, and videos. https://eolson47.substack.com/
