China

We get an opportunity to talk science once every month when Chris Anderson joins us from the Herrett Center.

Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain wanted to shut up Winston Churchill.  Baldwin and Chamberlain believed Churchill was antagonizing the Germans by shouting Hitler was dangerous.

BOISE, Idaho (KLIX) Idaho's governor says the recent trip to China proved to be a success and identified future potential in the Asian market.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Idaho Gov. Butch Otter and representatives of the state's milk, potato, wheat and hay industries will visit China on a trade mission.

A woman once stopped me during a remote broadcast and told me we had met at her church some years before.  I expected a pleasant conversation when she blurted out, “I find you depressing!”  When I asked why she shared, it’s because I’m so often the bearer of bad news...

Having just returned from a long weekend, I’m a little late with my debate analysis, but here we go.  Trump won the first-third.  I think he may have been told to avoid attacks to look more presidential.  The result may have been to keep him a little too cosseted and tipped the decision in favor of Mrs...

I’m evidence life isn’t predictable.  In the summer of 2007, I was working as a casual employee of the United States Postal Service.  Every night when I walked into work at a postal sorting and distribution center just before 10:00 P.M, I thought it might be the night I would die on the job...

When do we lock her up and throw away the key?  A friend of mine is a retired undercover federal narcotics agent and suggested today there is now plenty of evidence for a conviction of Hillary Clinton.  We had reaction to the ongoing Clinton scandal on Top Story...

We’ve had a running discussion on Top Story about the size of the national debt.  Officially, it’s just below 20 trillion dollars.  One billion is 1,000 million.  One trillion is one thousand billion.  Times that by twenty!  Some even warn the 20 trillion dollar figure is wrong, and because of unfunded liabilities (pensions and health benefits for government retirees), the number could be many tim

Nobody asked me but I can answer in one word why President Obama is promising weapons to Vietnam:  China!  The Vietnamese and Chinese are traditional enemies.  The Vietnamese were only an enemy of the United States for a decade.  Some historians remind us after World War Two the USA quickly warmed up to the vanquished...

We wrapped up the show today discussing Islamo-fascism and Christian persecution. Near the end of the segment I shared two stories from the Daily Signal about the slow grinding anti-Christian pressure from the political left. I then shared a tale from Christian Post about China...

Driving home from work today I listened to the radio as my Governor outlined his 2016 wish list.  C.L. “Butch” Otter has had the job in Idaho for a long time now.  One year into his third term he originally took the office just as a worldwide recession arrived...

The economy is in a tailspin because the price of metallurgical coal has collapsed!  Huh?  Let me explain.  Former Reagan White House Budget Director David Stockman tracks these canaries in the mines.  Met coal has hit rock bottom price...

I can’t recall a period in my lifetime where I believed Western Civilization had drawn its last breath.  Now I think it has and we’re all just waiting for the pillars to fall with a loud thud.  Grant it I’ve only been a member of the club for just over one-half-century but I can’t any longer see any room for redemption...

Often I joke with people about a second American Revolution being just around the corner.  Even as a sometimes apocalyptic radio host I rarely take the thought seriously.  Too many people are prepping for the holiday and the hotdogs and the fireworks...

I don’t consider myself a conspiracy theorist.  Alex Jones isn’t appointment radio, although.  When I sometimes listen to Jones I’m impressed by the narrative and the passion behind his voice.  It’s entertaining if nothing else and I also have suspicions about large institutions...

Why are we letting hoodlums, Muslims and homosexuals run the country?  Since I’m reminded daily in media these minorities are terribly oppressed because they can’t get what they want 100 percent of the time then I’m supposed to surrender or toss myself into an ocean...

I’m not foolish enough to believe anybody reading this can keep up with the modern deluge of media.  I’m immersed in news because I’m a paid critic and even I can’t follow the entire flow of information in the electronic age, still...

Several listeners commented today on the so-called "pollution agreement" with China...how the U.S. must restrict pollution by 28% by 2025 and China can continue to increase pollution until 2030.  What kind of an agreement is THAT? Sgt. Ken Mencl with Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office talks about winter driving safety ... Read More ...

Mary Holly and Shelly Harral are trying to help Magic Valley towns get humane places for stray animals through the project Anything's Pawsable.  You can help! Twin Falls City Councilperson Rebecca Mills Sojka talks about a new emergency notification plan for the city and some important meetings coming up ... Read More ...
