New Death Penalty Law in Idaho Sends Brutal Warning to Pedophiles

Convicted child rapists in Idaho can now face execution by firing squad, following the passage of a new law signed by Governor Brad Little on April 1, 2025, as reported by The Blaze.

The law, known as House Bill 380, makes child rape a capital offense in the state. The bill passed the Idaho House unanimously, though five senators—three Democrats and two Republicans — voted against it in the Senate. It comes just weeks after Idaho made the firing squad the state’s primary method of execution.

Gov. Little stated at the time of the bill’s ratification:

“Just like capital murder destroys lives, aggravated sexual abuse of a young child devastates victims and families for generations. The sexual abuse of children is sickening and evil, and perpetrators convicted of these crimes deserve the ultimate punishment.”

Sponsored by Republican state Reps. Bruce Skaug and Josh Tanner, the bill creates mandatory minimum sentences and increases penalties for sex crimes against children.

Under the new law, adults convicted of molesting a minor between ages 13 and 16 can face a minimum of 25 years in prison and up to life, provided at least two aggravating factors are present.

These aggravating factors include kidnapping the victim, inflicting great bodily harm, engaging in human trafficking, being a registered sex offender, being in a position of trust or custodial authority, use of coercion, or choking the victim during the offense.

In more severe cases, adults convicted of aggravated lewd conduct involving a child 12 or under may now be sentenced to either life in prison or death, again based on two or more aggravating factors.

In these cases, additional aggravating factors include any form of penile penetration or repeat offenses involving the same child. Rep. Skaug spoke to the House Judiciary, Rules and Administration Committee stating:

“Idaho currently has some of the most lenient statutes for child molestation and child rape in the nation. This legislation establishes a strong deterrent, making it clear Idaho will not tolerate these offenses.”

Idaho previously limited the death penalty to first-degree murder cases involving aggravating factors. With this expansion, Idaho joins Florida and Tennessee in allowing the death penalty for child rape.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis implemented a similar law in 2023 saying:

“We really believe that part of a just society is to have appropriate punishment. And so, if you commit a crime that is really, really heinous, you should have the ultimate punishment.”

Tennessee passed its version in 2024. Gov. Bill Lee signed legislation that permits capital punishment or life without parole for those convicted of raping children under age 13. For victims aged 8 or younger, the law requires either the death penalty or life imprisonment without parole.

Alabama may soon follow. In February 2025, the Alabama House voted 86-5 in favor of legislation that would make the rape of a child under 12 a capital crime.

Some Democrats have opposed such measures. In Idaho, Sens. Alison Rabe, Ron Taylor, and Melissa Wintrow voted against HB 380, along with Republican Sens. Phil Hart and Daniel Foreman.

The Idaho Capital Sun noted that lawmakers expect legal challenges ahead, citing a 2008 U.S. Supreme Court decision where the majority ruled the death penalty unconstitutional for child rape when the victim was not killed.

Despite that, Gov. Little said Idaho will continue pushing for strict enforcement.

“I commend my partners in the Legislature for strengthening Idaho’s already powerful ‘tough on crime’ reputation among the state.”

Pam Bondi Cracks Down on Domestic Terrorism: Tesla Firebomber Faces 20 Years

US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced federal charges against Cooper Frederick, 24, in the firebombing of the Tesla dealership in Loveland, Colorado.

Frederick, who targeted the Loveland Tesla dealership with an incendiary device last month, was arrested on March 14 and charged with second-degree arson, use of explosives or incendiary devices during a felony, criminal mischief, and other crimes.

Bondi warned others planning to take part in acts of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties:

“I’ve made it clear, if you take part in the wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, we will find you, arrest you, and put you behind bars.

Today, I’m proud to announce that the Department of Justice has unsealed federal charges against another Tesla attacker.

We’ve charged Cooper Frederick in the firebombing of a Tesla dealership that occurred on March 7 in Loveland, Colorado.

There will be no negotiating. We are seeking 20 years in prison.

The crime was committed in Colorado, and thanks to the great investigative work by the FBI, the defendant was arrested in Plano, Texas. Let this be a warning. You can run, but you cannot hide. Justice is coming.”

Watch:

Last week, Paul Kim, 36, was arrested following a “targeted attack” on a Tesla center.

Kim used Molotov cocktails and firearms during his attack, police said.

Kim was charged with shooting a gun into an abandoned structure/vehicle, third-degree arson, destruction of real property, and possession of a flammable device.

Kim’s social media shows him with potential communist & pro-Palestine affiliations, per Fox News‘s Bill Melugin.

Last month, President Donald Trump said acts of political violence will not be tolerated, stating that the increasing violence will be labeled as acts of domestic terrorism.

“I will do that, I’ll do it. I’m going to stop them,” the president said in response to the threat level being raised.

“Those people are going to go through a big problem when we catch them. We’ve got a lot of cameras up, we already know who some of them are. We’re going to catch them,” he said.

“And they’re bad guys. They’re the same guys that screw around with our schools and universities, the same garbage,” the president added.

Are Daily Arson Attacks on Tesla Just More “New Normal”?

/

During the alleged pandemic, people began using the term “new normal” as if that phrase was itself normal and unremarkable.

Millions of us watched as the people we thought we knew—our spouses, parents, children—immediately buckled under to a world none of us signed up for. Governor issues an illegal order telling state residents they can’t walk outside on the street with someone who doesn’t live with them? No protest, just a shrug and “new normal.”

The president gets on television and vocally yells at people who refuse experimental vaccines, saying his patience is wearing out with Americans? Shrug and “new normal.”

The phrase “new normal” struck fear in those of us who were paying attention to what was going on. We knew that this signaled docility and compliance among our countrymen. We correctly predicted that the majority of Americans would forgo their constitutional rights, and they’d tattle on their own family members who broke any “new normal” decree. 

We’re still living in new normal, and the definition is expanding. New normal now includes leftist violence and property destruction any time the hard left doesn’t like a person or policy. Violent “activists” learned during the BLM riots of 2020 that they could, in fact, get away with burning buildings, assaulting police, and taking over entire sections of a city. No one was going to do a damned thing.

It’s no surprise, then, that deranged leftists have been targeting Tesla car dealerships around the country for vandalism and arson. Our soft-on-crime-when-it’s-lefties policies under Joe Biden have emboldened radicals. On March 18 as-yet-unapprehended vandals set fire to multiple models at a Tesla dealership in Las Vegas. Police say they threw molotov cocktails in what law enforcement described as a “targeted attack.” This is just the latest in a series of arson and vandalism attacks at Tesla dealerships. Why? Because leftist radicals hate the owner of Tesla, Elon Musk. 

And in new normal times, if you hate someone enough, you’re allowed to hurt them or destroy their property. Seriously, readers: It’s not normal to see “another attack on a car dealership” in the news every single day. 

Collin Rugg broke the news on X/Twitter, including video of the burning cars:

Social media users are wise to what’s going on:

Isn’t it weird how leftists say they love “clean, green” energy, and yet they target the biggest maker of electric cars? 

Some offered ideas for a just response to the vandalism:

When Pardoned J6er Confronts Him: January 6’s Media Cop Fanone Erupts 

/

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, who is serving a 22-year sentence for “seditious conspiracy” in connection to the January 6 protests, confronted former Capitol Police officers Michael Fanone and Harry Dunn on Saturday at a Washington, D.C., hotel.

The encounter turned into a tense exchange, with both sides trading accusations.

Tarrio, who was convicted in 2023 despite not entering the U.S. Capitol on January 6, has been a central figure in ongoing debates about the fairness of prosecutions related to the protests.

He was sentenced by Judge Timothy Kelly, who sided with Department of Justice prosecutors in classifying Tarrio’s actions as “terrorism.”

Requests to move the trial outside of Washington, D.C., where more than 90 percent of residents vote Democrat, were denied.

One of the witnesses against Tarrio and other defendants was Fanone, who testified before the January 6 Committee.

Since then, Fanone has made frequent appearances on MSNBC and CNN, where he has referred to Trump and his supporters as “traitors.”

Dunn, another former Capitol Police officer, also served as a witness and has been a vocal critic of Trump’s role in the protests.

Tarrio, alongside pro-Trump attorney Ivan Raiklin, approached Fanone and Dunn in an effort to engage them in a discussion about their public statements regarding January 6.

Raiklin asked if they would be open to having lunch to discuss the matter, but both men declined and proceeded toward an elevator.

“You guys are a**holes, so please just back off,” an unidentified woman said as Fanone and Dunn continued walking. Tarrio then responded, referencing Fanone’s attendance at his sentencing.

“You know who’s an a**hole? Somebody that sits in my sentencing and laughs while I got sentenced to 22 years. That’s an a**hole.”

Tarrio continued addressing Fanone, saying, “You were brave on Twitter, and you thought you were brave at my sentencing when you laughed when I got 22 years. And now you don’t wanna look my way and pretend I’m not here, right?”

Fanone briefly turned around before continuing toward the elevator. The exchange escalated further when Fanone called Tarrio a “traitor to this country.”

Tarrio fired back, saying, “You f**king coward. You were a coward that day, you were a coward after, and you’re another coward,” including Dunn in his remarks.

The shouting continued as hotel staff intervened, calling security to remove Tarrio. Fanone’s entourage then pulled him into the elevator as he continued shouting expletives.

Following the altercation, Raiklin weighed in, stating, “If that’s how they act when it’s a calm environment, imagine how they acted on January 6. They were the ones that were the trigger pullers. They were the ones that incited, instigated. These are unstable men. And that’s why January 6 played out the way it did, because they’re not able to contain themselves and control their emotions.”

Fanone has continued making strong statements in media appearances following Trump’s election victory.

Speaking to CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Fanone claimed he has been “betrayed” by Trump supporters and law enforcement.

“Thanks America,” Fanone told Cooper. When asked if he felt betrayed, he responded, “I have been betrayed by my country. Rest assured I have been betrayed by my country and I have been betrayed by those that supported Donald Trump. Whether you voted for him because he promised these pardons or for some other reason, you knew that this was coming and here we are.”

In a post-election interview with the Washington Post, Fanone hinted at plans to isolate himself, stating, “Better f**king arm yourselves.”

The Post’s Kara Voght reported that Fanone went further, suggesting he would rather die in a “shootout” than be arrested if investigated by a future Trump administration’s Department of Justice.

Tarrio’s conviction and sentencing remain controversial, with critics pointing to his absence from the Capitol as evidence that the prosecution’s case was politically motivated.

Meanwhile, the confrontations and public statements from figures like Fanone and Dunn continue to fuel debate over how January 6 has been handled by law enforcement and the courts.

Judge Orders Walmart Shoplifters To Wash Cars In Store Parking Lot

/

A Genesee County judge is trying a new form of ex-spongement—sentencing Walmart shoplifters to wash cars in the parking lot this spring. In an effort to deter theft at the Grand Blanc Township store and reward law-abiding shoppers, Judge Jeffrey Clothier began ordering “Walmart wash” sentences this week for misdemeanor shoplifting, The Associated Press reports.

The store in Grand Blanc Township is 50 miles north of Detroit. Clothier hopes some sponge equity in the form of hand-washing cars—as well as facing fellow customers and community members—will discourage people from stealing from Walmart. “I think it will be humiliating to be out there washing cars if you see someone you know,” Clothier said.

Clothier, who was recently elected to Genesee County District Court, has been dismayed over the cases of retail thefts. He joined the bench in January and said that offenders were from all over Michigan and outside the state. “It’s just crazy,” he told the AP, noting he had 48 such cases on his docket one day. Clothier estimates 75 to 100 people eventually will be ordered to wash cars at weekend events at that location in March and April. Walmart is “on board” and will provide water and supplies.

Clothier also plans to join the shoplifters he has sentenced and wash cars alongside them. “Sometimes people are just down on their luck,” Clothier told the AP. “But there’s going to be consequences when you break the law.”

New White House Press Sec. Tells Liberal Press Corps How It’s Going to Be

/

Oh, what a difference a change of administration makes. Until a few weeks ago, we had to listen to three years of this from the White House press room:

That’s President Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre. You’d be hard pressed to find a presidential spokeswoman who answered fewer direct questions, or who threw more tantrums or scolded more reporters when she didn’t like being questioned on a sensitive topic. 

And what was a sensitive topic? Anything connected to reality. Jean-Pierre would get exasperated and snippy at any reporter who asked about Biden’s obvious senility, or about the legality of his attempts to make American taxpayers pay off the student loan debts of individual students. Or about anything. 

Like the rest of the pathological narcissists in the Democrat party, Jean-Pierre thought very highly of herself. She made sure to point out that she was “making history” by being the first black lesbian to hold her job when she was new at it. Then, on her way out, she waxed self-lovingly about how she contemplates the many little girls “looking at me,” and how she hopes she’s “an inspiration” to them. 

The page has turned. President Donald Trump’s press secretary Karoline Leavitt is just 27 years old, but she has a direct and commanding no-nonsense communication style that would leave seasoned public speakers envious. 

Here she is explaining-telling, not asking-that the administration is putting tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, for their part in the fentanyl epidemic that “has killed tens of millions of Americans.”

Want more? Leavitt’s got you covered. In the same press briefing, she told the plain truth about the probable origins of Covid-19. But more importantly, she pointed out that Trump and Republicans were smeared as “conspiracy theorists” when they talked about the lab-leak hypothesis that even the CIA is now saying is likely where the disease came from. 

Then, Leavitt heats it up with an unequivocal declaration that no one can expect to get a job in government anymore by trading on their skin color, sexuality, or any other “protected” characteristic. Competence, she said, will be the deciding factor in hiring decisions:

And for dessert, just watch her demolish a reporter trying to impugn Trump’s character by kibbitzing about the fact that he sometimes uses profanity:

Radical Transgender Militant Group Linked to Border Patrol Agent Murder in Vermont 

/

Federal investigators have linked the murder of a U.S. Border Patrol agent near the Canadian border to a radical militant group accused of multiple killings across the country.

Border Patrol agent David Maland was shot and killed on January 20 during a routine traffic stop in Coventry, Vermont.

The suspects, identified as German national Felix “Ophelia” Bauckholt and University of Washington student Teresa “Milo” Consuelo Youngblut, were traveling in a Toyota Prius when they were stopped.

Authorities say Youngblut opened fire on Maland, killing him, before border agents returned fire, killing Bauckholt. Youngblut was taken into custody.

Court documents reveal that federal law enforcement had been monitoring Bauckholt and Youngblut in the days leading up to the shooting. Staff at a Lyndonville, Vermont, motel had reported seeing the pair with firearms and black tactical clothing.

When law enforcement questioned them, they claimed to be scouting property in the area before checking out of the motel on January 14.

Authorities now say that the weapons used in the attack were linked to a larger investigation involving a shadowy extremist group known as the “Zizians.” This group, led by Jack LaSota—also known by the alias “Ziz”—has been connected to at least four homicides.

Bauckholt, a biological male identifying as transgender, had an extensive background in mathematics and finance.

Originally from Freiburg, Germany, he graduated from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, before working as a quantitative trader at Tower Research Capital in New York. Investigators believe he was in the U.S. on an H-1B visa.

Youngblut, a biological female identifying as transgender, was a computer science student at the University of Washington.

Social media records show Youngblut followed multiple far-left, Antifa-aligned accounts and had been reported missing by family members in May 2024. The family told police they believed she was in a controlling relationship and had cut off contact.

The case took another turn last week when authorities arrested Maximilian Bentley Snyder, a Seattle resident and former classmate of Youngblut. Snyder was charged with the murder of 82-year-old Curtis Lind, an elderly man who was set to testify in an upcoming attempted murder trial involving alleged members of the “Ziz” group. Prosecutors say Snyder killed Lind to prevent his testimony.

Lind was the sole witness in a case against two alleged members of the Ziz group—Suri Dao and Alexander “Somni” Leatham—who are accused of attempting to murder him in 2022.

During that attack, Lind was stabbed multiple times and lost an eye but managed to shoot and kill one of his assailants, Amir “Emma” Borhanian. Authorities have also identified bioinformatics researcher Michelle Jacqueline Zajko as a person of interest.

Zajko, a transgender nonbinary individual, was previously linked to the Ziz group and is believed to have supplied firearms to Bauckholt and Youngblut. Zajko has not been charged with a crime but remains under investigation for a double homicide in Delaware County, Pennsylvania.

Following the border shooting, investigators searched Bauckholt and Youngblut’s vehicle and discovered a cache of weapons and tactical gear, including:

  • Two pistols and multiple magazines
  • Night-vision goggles
  • Two full-face respirators
  • A ballistic helmet
  • 48 rounds of hollow-point ammunition
  • Interstate lodging records
  • Two-way radios
  • Multiple electronic devices wrapped in foil

Authorities also searched their prior residence in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where they had been living in an Airbnb with other members of the Ziz group. The property owner reported that Youngblut had parked a large box truck on the premises, where group members frequently gathered.

Federal prosecutors have cited Youngblut’s connections to other violent individuals as a reason to deny bail.

In a January 27 court motion, prosecutor Matthew Lasher wrote, “Her associations with other individuals suspected of violent acts also warrants caution.” Meanwhile, online supporters of the Ziz group have attempted to pressure people not to cooperate with authorities.

Following the murder of witness Curtis Lind, one social media account linked to the group posted, “Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.”

As federal agencies continue to investigate the extent of the Ziz group’s operations, questions remain about their broader network and future threats.

Law enforcement officials have not ruled out additional arrests as they work to uncover more connections between the group’s members and recent violent incidents across multiple states.

Democratic Lawmaker Flips Out on Cop during Traffic Stop: “I’m Literally Your Boss!”

/

A Democratic elected official in New Jersey who was stopped by a police officer during a traffic stop suffered a total meltdown after being pulled over.

Paulsboro Councilman Theodore D. Holloway II reportedly ran a stop sign in Philadelphia earlier this month, according to a public records request from NJ.com.

In the footage, Holloway is seen cursing at the officer from the driver’s seat of his van and repeatedly referencing his political office. “You can’t be serious. I want to know what exactly are you getting behind me for?” Holloway inquired, whilst denying that he had run a stop sign.

Holloway then threatened to call the cop’s boss. “Don’t think I ain’t going to talk to Gary about this,” he said, referring to the chief. The officer shrugged off the threat; Holloway shouted, “I’m the one that hired you!”

When the policeman shrugged off the threat, Holloway shouted, “I’m the one that hired you!”

“You actually pulled over an elected official,” Holloway continued, attempting to call the police chief from his cell phone.

“You’re not pulling over a random. You’re pulling over your boss. I am literally your boss.”

Holloway referred to his elected office when the police officer’s supervisor arrived at the scene.

“You know who I am, right?” Holloway asked.

Paulsboro Mayor John Giovannitti confirmed that government officials for the community had been briefed on the matter, adding that Holloway was spoken to following the incident.

“We’ve spoken to him with our legal team and went over the issues that we had, and I just think it was an unfortunate incident that shouldn’t have happened,” Giovannitti said. “It’s never happened in the past and can’t happen again.”

The official acknowledged that “it’s not the response that an elected official should share with our police,” characterizing Holloway as a dedicated member of the borough council.

Holloway was issued a citation for “driving or parking [an] unregistered motor vehicle.”

15 Percent of Inmates in Fed Women’s Prison Are. . . Men

/

Maybe by this time in 2026, writers like me won’t have to write things that don’t make sense. Things like this: Did you know that despite transgender individuals making up only 0.3% of the population, 15 percent of women in U.S. federal prisons are men?

See what I mean? 

We jumped the shark all the way into orbit in about 2014 when Time Magazine declared it the year of the “transgender tipping point.” Using a photograph of the “trans woman” “Laverne” Cox in a waist-cincher, wig, and a coquette pose, Time assured us that transgender rights were “the next civil rights frontier.” 

Sympathy for what we all used to correctly call drag queens and transvestites went so high it broke every measurement scale. No longer could we acknowledge that none of these men in “working girl” couture were actually men. It wasn’t permitted to fail to refer to them as “she.” Doing anything–even having the wrong look on your face–that signaled that you didn’t believe they really were women would get you shrieked at by leftist lunatics (mainly actual women) and accused of “transphobia” and “violence.”

Well it’s 10 years later and the seeds we sowed have blossomed into exactly the rotten fruit conservatives told us they would, and that all of us could have seen if we weren’t so busy pretending reality isn’t real. Given the high percentage of “trans women” in prison who are sexual predators, it should come as no surprise that they’re raping their cellmates. This is just one story out of California, and it’s particularly gruesome; after being allegedly raped by a “lady man “trans woman” behind bars, the court is forcing the victim to refer to her alleged rapist as “she” and “her.”

Mainstream media, of course, are attacking Donald Trump for putting the kibosh on the sadistic practice of putting male criminals in women’s prisons. The UK’s Independent bleats that Trump is “gutting” parts of the Prison Rape Elimination Act. How is Trump doing that? By no longer allowing men in women’s prisons.

The media may still be playing opposite day, but users on Twitter/X are having none of it. Former New York Times writer Alex Berenson, who defected from the Gray Lady has the story:

Though there are a few people sniping at Alex for being a “bigot” for using the term “trannies,” most of the reactions are like this:

New Orleans Police Superintendent Says City Had Barriers To Prevent New Year’s Attack, But She Did Not Know About Them

/

New Orleans Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick confirmed that the city had effective anti-vehicle barriers available to be deployed on New Year’s Eve, but says they weren’t because she was unaware of their existence.

Questions remain unanswered surrounding the horrific events in the city which saw a Texas man inspired by Islamic State mow down pedestrians on Bourbon Street, killing at least 14 in the process and wounding dozens more.

The city had removed anti-vehicle bollards due to functional issues and was in the process of replacing them. However, officials opted to use police patrol cars as a barrier instead, which were circumvented when the attacker drove on the sidewalk and onto Bourbon Street.

On Thursday, Superintendent Kirkpatrick confirmed that L-shaped Archer barriers had been installed, and the street was open for business. However, she gave a confusing response to a journalist asking where the anti-vehicle barriers had come from.

“Actually, we have them. I didn’t know about them, but we have them, and so we have been able now to put them out,” she told reporters, adding that it was “not a matter of pointing blame anywhere” given that the attacker was “hell-bent” on destruction. “This man was going to do his best, and if it hadn’t been on Bourbon, he was going to go somewhere else,” she added. “We have this. We’re going to implement it. End of story.”

Last year, Kirkpatrick herself was on duty when she struck two pedestrians with a vehicle.

Many were critical of the Superintendent’s response, and lack of action into preventing the heinous attack.

Others noted Kirkpatrick’s policing history in Oakland, CA, and more recently in New Orleans.
