Cowboy State Politics

Cowboy State Politics

Conservative politics from Wyoming and the nation. The media doesn’t report the truth and they are always playing for the left. Politicians lie and it’s my job to prove it. The only way that we set our country back to Constitutional principles is by exposing those who are trying to destroy it.

All but 1 Wyoming school district did not give their staff the 8.5% raise promised by the legislature.  Most gave a salary increase far below that.  HB316 specifically says that teachers and staff get 8.5%, that only happened in 1 county.

Happy Marxist, Communist, Radical Domestic Terrorist Day!!  There's a lot more to Labor Day than just barbeques, fishing and having fun.  The reason you aren't working is because of Marxists!

Replay of Cowboy State Politics Live August 28.  Reaction to the Gail Symons podcast.  Eric Barlow has to resign his chairmanship and a federal judge in Wyoming has dismissed the UW sorority lawsuit because he's not a biologist and can't define what a woman is.  You can't make this stuff up!

Last Thursday during the Cowboy State Daily Morning Show, Gail Symons claimed that a reprehensible comment made years prior by Rep Steve Harshman about now Secretary of State Chuck Gray was, "Not Inaccurate."  The only reason she brought it up is she thought no one would remember.  That wasn't the only insult she leveled at conservatives.  Predictably, Morning Show host Jake Nichols didn't correct her or push back in any way.

Tomorrow on the program I'm going to play for you the reprehensible things Gail Symons said about Secretary of State Chuck Gray.  I'd say that Jake in the Cow Pie agreed with her but, frankly, he doesn't know what she's talking about.  After tomorrow he will.

The Wyoming GOP held their quarterly meeting in Hulett over the weekend.  As usual, I was left to do the job the Wyoming media refuses to do.  There were several resolutions presented but the one concerning federal lands caught my attention.

Sheridan County Commissioner Nick Siddle wants to raise your taxes.  Nick and the Transportation Committee  considered a 10 CENT raise to the gas tax at their last meeting.  WYDOT claims that they have a $400 million shortfall.  If that's true an increase in the gas tax wouldn't come anywhere close to closing it.

Eric Barlow claims to be a conservative but his voting record shows that he is the farthest thing from that.  In the past 10 years, Barlow voted 81.88% of the time with the DEMOCRATS--hardly the work of a conservative.  His record on guns and on pro-life bills isn't any better.

For over 20 years, Ben Barto has been "Bone Daddy."  He's been the public persona of the Beartooth Motorcycle Rally.  Now he's the organizer of a professional biker rodeo association.  But he has also spent most of life supporting veteran charitable organizations.

Recap of The World According to Ogden.  He was up until the wee hours of the morning trying to defend his record.  "Trying" is the operative word.  It's pretty hard to defend voting against a bill that would have allowed your doctor to prescribe Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine when you obtained some for your own family.  Interview with U.S. Rep Harriet Hageman and much much more.

Some legislators get an elitist attitude when they have been in the legislature too long.  Ogden Driskill is a perfect example of that.  While Senate President he never would have allowed the behavior he has exhibited over the years.  One thing's for certain, he's a never-ending source of soundbites.

We should start referring to comments on social media as exactly what they are.  Most of them have no support or evidence to back up their claims--they're just inane noise; which, is mostly what you get from the Redcoats.  My advice, just ignore them.

After the closing of 8 newspapers, you'd think the Wyoming media would take stock of where they're at--what they could do to improve.  But they didn't.  Media outlets continued in their biased coverage and one of them published an editorial openly admitting that they are the gate-keepers of information.

Legislators ask you to trust them on a whole host of issues.  You shouldn't trust them on anything.  As Reagan said, "Trust but verify."  Some of the Senators and Representatives are asking for your trust; but those same people really didn't act in your best interests during COVID.  Trust the Science is what we were all told.  Not again!

There's been some push back to some of the legislative ratings sites.  The scrutiny is absolute...

Senator Jim Anderson is the Senate Chairman of the minerals committee.  He also doesn't care if you know what he really thinks.  During this past week's interim meeting, Anderson repeatedly swore on the microphone.  He also allowed Ogden Driskill to basically call other legislators liars and attack the Freedom Caucus--something what would absolutely not be allowed on the legislative floor.
