Idaho’s budget is broken because the Republican supermajority took care of the rich and forgot the rest of us. It’s time to stand up and take our state back.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
