Cowboy State Politics

Wyoming Speaker of the House Albert Sommers and other Wyoming legislators are part of an organization with direct ties to the Chinese Communist Party, Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.  If that's not enough, Albert Sommers is on their board of directors.

Mark Gordon sent out a statewide text over the weekend announcing his website "FactCheckWyoming."  The truth is, we really should be fact checking the governor.  His PAC has a whole bunch of out of state funders.  Also, I had a great interview with HD 34 Representative Pepper Ottman.

I'm finally back from our Honeymoon!!  Candidates on both sides have been declining invitations to attend debates and forums.  There are several reasons a candidate might not want to but I think it's a bad look.

Rep Scott Smith in Goshen County has an opponent in Jackie Van Mark.  He may as well be running against Liz Cheney since Van Mark thinks Cheney would beat Donald Trump.  We had a great discussion about the race and his work in Cheyenne.

Laura McKee is running for the Wyoming House in District 39.  That seat is held by Cody Wylie.  He is one of the newer Redcoats that votes with the Democrats over 82% of the time.

It's my wedding day!!  I just wanted to visit with you for a few minutes about that and tell you about a VERY Special Announcement (as if my wedding wasn't enough)!

Bryce Reece is running for the Wyoming Senate in District 28 in Natrona County.  That seat is currently held by longtime Redcoat Jim Anderson.  He and his wife are small business owners in Casper and have decided to get into politics.

I'm finally back from my surgery...well sort of.  I had to get behind the microphone to talk to you this morning.  A nutjob tried to assassinate President Trump, the media has been fanning the flames for 8 years and now there are calls for unity.

Mike Schmid has written pay checks for 40 years--something most Wyoming legislators know nothing about.  He's running for the Wyoming House in District 20.

Tom Kelly is running for the Wyoming House in District 30.  That's the seat formerly held by Rep Mark Jennings.  His opponent in that race is founder of the frontier republicans, Gail Symons.

Tina Clifford is a former school teacher and is running for the Wyoming House in District 54.  That seat is currently held by Lloyd Larsen.  We had a fairly in-depth discussion about the problems in Wyoming education.  She has some common sense solutions that may surprise some.

Wyoming has been littered with green door hangers recently.  All of them look the same and all of them mention someone named Amy Womack.  To give you a hint, Amy Womack was the Political Director for Liz Cheney for Wyoming.  And even though their material claims that AFP is conservative, the truth is very VERY Different.

When's the last time you read the Declaration of Independence?  We make fun of Joe Biden for forgetting it.  But are we any better?  If you pay attention to the "news," we are living in a country that bares little resemblance to the one our Founders envisioned.

The US Supreme Court has ruled that presidents do have absolute immunity for official acts.  This is absolutely how they should have ruled and it has big implications for this election.  Also, I get to announce our new sponsor!

Rep Jeanette Ward in House District 57 has an opponent in her first re-election campaign.  Julie Jarvis, an Americans for Prosperity endorsed candidate, is vying for the seat...

Ann Lucas is running the Wyoming House of Representatives in House District 43.  That seat is currently held by Rep Dan Zwonitzer.  We had a wide ranging discussion about schools, taxes, guns and lots more.

Rep Clarence Styvar is running for re-election in House District 12.  He has an opponent this year in Thomas Lear--the guy who was a Democrat a few months ago.  I have been after him to do an interview for a long time, so I was excited that I got to visit with him.  We had a great, wide ranging discussion.

Dr Eric Cubin was thrown off the Wyoming Board of Medicine by Governor Mark Gordon for supporting SF99, Chloe's Law.  Gordon allowed Cubin's predecessor to testify repeatedly about abortion.  Cubin and I discuss what happened and how misguided the Governor's actions really are.

Dr. Eric Cubin was summarily thrown off the Wyoming Board of Medicine by Governor Gordon for his stance on trans-gender surgeries.  Dr. Cubin joins me on Weekend Update for a wide-ranging, exclusive interview about what Gordon did and why the governor's wrong.

Replay of Cowboy State Politics Live June 20, 2024.  Who is WPATH??

Representatives Jeanette Ward and Ken Pendergraft join me on the program to discuss their respective races.  It's a wide ranging discussion of taxes and what they are hearing on the campaign trail.  Also, I take a look at the HD40 race in Johnson and Sheridan Counties.

Exie Brown is running against one of the original Redcoats--Landon Brown.  He's an Air Force Veteran with strong conservative principles.  We had a great discussion..

Lars Lone is a former member of the Wyoming House.  He's decided to take a break from politics and to take up farming.  He's built a hydroponic farm in Cheyenne that grows mushrooms and greens.  Also, some previously unreleased audio from Rep Ken Clouston.  It sheds some light on why he votes with the liberals in the House of Representatives.

The US Supreme Court has struck down the ban on bump-stocks but also dealt a blow to the ATF's rule making.  What we all know, just because you call it a machine gun, doesn't make it a machine gun.  Also today I announced a new sponsor to the program: The Wyoming Cartridge Company.

Lee Filer was Democrat in the Wyoming House from 2013-2014.  Now he's running as a Republican in HD44.  Our discussion ran the gamut from abortion to taxes and universal pre-k to the Republican Party Platform.  It's an interesting interview, make sure you listen all the way to the end.
