Tea Party Bob and Ron Nate examine the Idaho Freedom Foundation’s conservative budget proposal calling for $1.9 billion in spending cuts. The plan targets Medicaid expansion repeal, agency reductions including the Hispanic Commission and Idaho Public Television, and a return to pre-COVID spending levels. Discussion covers the state’s 60% budget growth over six years, press coverage challenges, charitable giving patterns, and immigration policy. Nate explains how controlling government growth could enable elimination of grocery and property taxes while maintaining essential services through private charity.
