This is Toby Sumpter with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Tuesday, March 23, 2021. And we're back… Today you will hear a bunch about Gov. Kristi Noem's partial veto of the South Dakota legislature's tranny bill. Calls continue for Gov. Cuomo to step down, and a father is in jail in Canada for using the wrong pronouns.  School year's end is in sight. Homeschoolers are evaluating; private school students know finals are coming. Math and science can be the toughest subjects for students and their parents. Instead of running to resources that disagree with your faith at every turn, how about hiring a reformed, Bible-believing, Creationist who can supplement both your child's science and math needs as well as their faith? Mr. Klunick Tutoring assists parents in their God-given responsibility to educate their children according to His word in every area of their lives by delivering science teaching built on the Bible.

Noem Partially Veto's a Bill She Said She Looked Forward to Signing https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/544241-kristi-noem-rejects-signing-transgender-sports-bill South Dakota's GOP governor declined on Friday to sign a bill from legislators in her own party that would have banned transgender girls from participating in women's high school and college sports. In a statement released on Twitter, Noem said that she was sending the bill back to lawmakers for changes, and indicated that she thought the ban should not be extended to college athletes. "Unfortunately, as I have studied this legislation and conferred with legal experts over the past several days, I have become concerned that this bill's vague and overly broad language could have significant unintended consequences," Noem wrote. "I am also concerned that the approach House Bill 1217 takes is unrealistic in the context of collegiate athletics," she added, writing that banning transgender athletes from collegiate sports would cause conflict with national college athletic associations (NCAA). Michael Ferris, CEO of Alliance Defending Freedom, Chairman of the HomeSchool Legal Defense Association, and Chancellor Emeritus of Patrick Henry College was among the first conservatives to call “Foul!”  On Facebook, Ferris wrote:  “Kristi Noem, the REPUBLICAN Governor of South Dakota, has just vetoed portions of the Save Women's Sports bill in her state.  Girls sports are saved for high school. But because of her veto men can now play women's sports in college. And she took out the enforcement clause for high school sports. It is clear that she bowed to the pressure from Amazon (which is supposed to be building a new facility in South Dakota) and the NCAA.  She was considered a shining star in the GOP with a bright future. No more.  We don't need leaders who lack the courage to stand up to the corporate bullies who want to turn our country into an amoral wasteland filled with compliant consumers.  Republican leaders count on people like us to help elect them. With leaders like this it makes the need for a new political alignment all the more acute.  South Dakota deserves better. All of America deserves better. ADDITION IN RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS: Gov. Noem's criticisms of the bill can be broken down into 3 basic points.  1. She didn't want the bill to apply to college athletics.  2. She didn't want high school girls whose rights were violated to have the right to sue.  3. She had some technical amendments about drug testing etc.  Keep in mind that after the Senate passed the bill, she tweeted that she looked forward to signing the legislation.  The normal way a friendly Governor works with the legislature on a bill is to raise concerns before the bill passes. Then the legislators can make changes if agreed. She said nothing until the bill was passed and again, she had previously promised to sign it when all these things were already in the bill.  She could have easily cured any technical problems in this fashion.  But the plain fact is she threw college athletics under the bus. And she robbed the rule protecting high school girls of any real power by taking away the right to sue.  I have worked on legislation for over 40 years. These are not the actions of a Governor who wants a robust bill to pass. She broke her promise.” That was Friday, March 19th. On Saturday, Ferris wrote on Facebook again: “More on Governor Noem's Partial Veto of the Save Women's Sports Bill Yesterday, I criticized Governor Noem's decision to not protect women's college athletes from biological males who decide to compete as females.  The Governor has tried to create the implication that the NCAA forced the state's hand. (see the photo of her tweet.)  The only way this could be true is if the NCAA required member institutions to admit transgender athletes on female teams.  The second photo is of the NCAA website. This makes it absolutely clear that the rule PERMITS universities to include transgendered athletes under certain conditions BUT IT NEVER REQUIRES ANY SCHOOL OR COACH TO DO SO.  Governor Noem was under no obligation from the NCAA to issue her veto.  This is abundantly obvious because many religious colleges are also members of the NCAA. And there is no way that it is seeking to force such religious schools to include transgender athletes on their teams.  Governor Noem was not forced to make this decision. She made it because she wanted to.  Her excuses ring hollow. There is no 50 state policy—except this: every school and state gets to decide for itself.  She originally promised to sign this bill. She changed her mind after intense pressure from business interests.  All of us are going to have to choose. Will we let corporate interests dictate the moral and social policy of this country? I say NO.” Then on Monday, Noem came out swinging with a press conference defending her decision, along with a DefendTitleIXNow.com coalition announcement. Heavy weight Former NFL Star Herschel Walker was among others on hand to defend Gov. Noem and her Defend Title IX Now coaltion.  https://www.facebook.com/govnoem/videos/302511984551411 0:50-2:00 – put simply  3:40-4:16 – feel good or do good? 5:31-7:14 Suing NCAA & Defend Title IX Now.com Rally Plug Have you registered for the Fight Laugh Feast Rally in Rapid City, South Dakota, April 29, 30, May 1?

The man — whose identity is reportedly under a publication ban by a British Columbia Court of Appeals to protect his child — was found in contempt of court and arrested Tuesday for calling the teen his daughter and publicly referring to him with the pronouns “she” and “her,” according to The Post Millennial.  The teenager was born as a female and reportedly identifies as transgender and prefers the use of male pronouns. The father reportedly began litigation against the teen's mother after learning of the transition, and the matter was settled by the province's highest court earlier this year, according to Global News. The parents are separated. The high court ordered the dad to not stand in the way of the 15-year-old's hormone therapy and to try and better understand gender dysphoria, the outlet reported. He was also told to stop speaking to the media about the case and warned that his public attempts to undermine his child's wishes was a form of family violence, according to the article. His daughter has identified as male since the age of 11, and changed her name at age 12 before pursuing hormone therapy with the support of his mother, a psychologist and an endocrinologist, according to Canadian law firm Torkin Manes. “[The father's] refusal to respect [the boy's] decisions regarding his gender identity is troublesome,” Chief Justice Robert Bauman and Justice Barbara Fisher wrote in the January decision, according to Global News. The father's rejection of his son's identity has caused the boy “significant pain” that has “resulted in a rupture of what both parties refer to as an otherwise loving parent-child relationship,” justices reportedly wrote. This rupture is not in [the boy's] best interests,” the decision said, according to the outlet. “He clearly wants and needs acceptance and support from his father.” The father confirmed his legal woes on an online fundraising campaign soliciting donations. “The far left issued an arrest warrant on Thursday, March 04! I will be turning myself in on March 16!,” the man posted in a Go Get Funding page where he has raised more than $22,000 Canadian amid his legal fight. “I am fighting the far left based on a civil disobedience defense! I am now back in court for a five day criminal trial that will last at least five days . . . From April 12-16. That trial that could land me in jail for up to five years for speaking truth about state sponsored child abuse. FYI . . . I am blocked from sharing any videos at this time that oppose the sterilization of children!,” the caption continued. The dad, and his arrest, have been lauded by some ideologues who say gender is not a biological or social construct. “They've created a delusion, and they're forcing parents to live in this delusion,” the father previously said, according to The Post Millennial.  Psalm Sing in San Diego Stone Mountain Media and The Response Church will be hosting another Psalm Sing on 03/27/21 – this Saturday -- at 3pm at the Balboa Park fountain near the amphitheater in San Diego. Psalm of the Day: Psalm 148 https://www.christkirk.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/18-Psalm-148-From-Heavn-O-Praise.mp3 Play Audio Praise the Lord, sun, moon, and stars. Praise the Lord, fire and hail and snow and wind. Praise the Lord, you kings and rulers and judges. Let everything and everyone praise the Lord. And do not think that this is just some pious, pie-in-the-sky wish. We know that it is a prayer that God is in the process of answering. What is the problem with this world? Fundamentally that it refuses to praise it's Maker. So when we call on the whole world to praise the Lord, we calling on the whole world to get right with its Maker. And since we know that Jesus rose from the dead to accomplish that – we know that it is only a matter of time.  This is Toby Sumpter with Crosspolitic News.

On this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene looks back on the story he wrote this past week about Chris Tico, who recently won the 2021 men's United States Handball Association Four-Wall Singles National Championship in the 50-and-over division. In the podcast, Dylan includes soundbites from his interview with Chris.

On this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene takes a quick glance at each of the local high school teams competing this winter and dives into a quick season preview on each.

This week, the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare deactivated crisis standards of care for six of Idaho's seven health districts, thanks to decreasing hospitalizations and test positivity rates. Only the Panhandle Health District remains under crisis standards of care, due to a large number of cases and hospitalizations, particularly in Bonner County. Idaho Department of Health and Welfare Director Dave Jeppesen said hospitals are still stressed, and most are working under contingency standards of care. Jeppesen urged Idahoans to continue wearing masks in crowded indoor settings and to choose to get vaccinated. Currently, Benewah, Bonner, Lincoln, Butte, and Clark counties have the highest seven day rolling average case rates. COVID hospitalizations and ICU admissions are now at the same levels they were in early August. Fifty nine percent of Idahoans ages 18 and older are fully vaccinated. About 15,000 Idaho children ages 5-11 have now received their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene dives into Priest River Lamanna High School moving down from 3A to 2A for the next two-year classification cycle (2022-23 and 2023-24). He looks at why the school decided not to petition up to remain in 3A with 2A enrollment numbers and what their new league could look like. In the podcast, he includes soundbites from his interview with Priest River Athletic Director Mike Condie. He also spoke with West Bonner County School Superintendent Paul Anselmo and Principal Matt George about the move and will have a full story in Wednesday's paper. 

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene reflects on the career of legendary coach Dave DeMers and him recently receiving a Distinguished Coaches' Award from the Idaho State Coaches Association. After helping Braden Kappen win the state title in the long jump this spring, DeMers now is the right time to step away from coaching for good. He still be around the track, but not like before. Current Sandpoint head track coach Matt Brass and current Lake City track coach Kelly Reed share their thoughts on DeMers and the impact he had on the community and beyond.

Normal people can’t afford to live in North Idaho anymore.As of 2019 — the most recent data we have — the median household income in Bonner County was $50,256, almost 25% below the national average of $65,712. That year, median housing sale prices fluctuated between $307,000 and $340,000. Not cheap, but payments would be well under the 30% of income that finance nerds say is ideal for people to pay their bills and survive. Barely two years later, the median sale price is $675,000.Unless wages have doubled — and we know they haven’t! — a normal Bonner County home would need to spend well over 50% of their income for a normal house. This isn’t the first cycle of displacement in North Idaho history. It’s been happening since the first fur trappers arrived, and really took off during the period of the Homestead Act and Indian removal.And while markets change, it’s the same old exploitation. That’s the topic of our third and, for now, final episode on what the hell is happening in Idaho. We speak to Sociologist Ryanne Pilgeram about timber, labor militancy and the switch that flipped 25 years ago, turning North Idaho from reliably pro-labor Democrat to run-of-the-mill Republican and then the slide toward deeper and deeper conservatism that lands us squarely in the present day. If you like the converation, you’ll love Ryanne’s book Pushed Out, a fascinating sociology of the small former mill town of Dover, Idaho. Get full access to RANGE at www.rangemedia.co/subscribe

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene looks back on a story he wrote this past week about Corey Allard, who won the 22nd running of the Idaho 200 late model stock car race on Saturday, July 31, at Stateline Speedway in Post Falls. It was Corey's first feature victory and in this podcast you will hear all about his story and how he got into racing. Corey has a close connection with his dad, Brad, and that's where most of his love for the sport came from. 

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene looks back on a story he wrote this past week about Wyatt Kayser, a 2021 Clark Fork High grad, who recently qualified for the Montana Bass Federation state team. Wyatt has aspirations of becoming a pro fisherman and in this podcast Dylan inserts a handful of soundbites from his interview with the 18-year-old and his dad, Jon Kayser, to retell the story. 

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Sports Editor Dylan Greene offers some advice to the graduates of the class of 2021. He also dissects some of the common cliches and phrases that are spoken at graduation ceremonies and why you should only hold true to one — following your dreams.

Reporter Rachel Sun talks to local mental health experts about the rising demand for counseling in North Idaho and Bonner County.

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, Dylan Greene sits down with Peggy Frye, the center director and forensic interviewer at the LillyBrooke Family Justice Center in Sandpoint. The center, founded in 2017, "empowers family violence victims to live free from violence and abuse by providing comprehensive services, centered on and around the victim, at one location," according to their website. In this interview, Frye discusses the importance of the center, how she got into working for the county prosecutor's office and the process she and the center goes through when handling child abuse cases.  Frye said the child advocacy center serves a pivotal purpose in the county and beyond. "There are kids out there that really need us to stand up for them," she said.

George Gehrig subscribes to the Fancy Scientist and responded to an email of mine asking about the impact of iNaturalist data on science. I thought that sounded like a great topic to discuss, and when I found out that George was the organizer of the City Nature Challenge for Bonner County, I thought – even better!iNaturalist is an app that anyone with a smartphone can use to take photos of different things in nature, upload them to the platform for identifications, and to connect with members in their community or across the world. The City Nature Challenge is an annual event where cities “compete” to find the most species and activate the largest groups of people to get outside and document nature using iNaturalist.In this episode, we talk about the importance of the City Nature Challenge to science and society, the many reasons why George is organizing one, and how you can get involved. Specifically we chat about:What is the City Nature Challenge? How was it started? Why do we have a City Nature Challenge? What is a bioblitz?How useful are iNaturalist data to scientists? Why and how the City Nature Challenge has meaning beyond spotting speciesHow to get people involved and to participateWhat impacts the City Nature Challenge can have on peopleHow is a winner determinedand MORE!For full show notes click here.Get a free chapter of my book “Getting a Job in Wildlife Biology: What It's Like and What You Need to Know” to see how I can help you in your career: https://stephanieschuttler.com/getting-a-job-in-wildlife-biology-book/ Want to learn about cool animals, conservation, and get tips about careers in wildlife biology, science, and more?

In this episode of the 7Bee Podcast, sports editor Dylan Greene sits down with Mel Dick, a past president of the Sandpoint Rotary Club, to discuss his recent cycling trip across the U.S. Mel traveled from Sandpoint, Idaho, all the way to Key West, Florida, and along the way got a taste of the sights and sounds of rural America. He visited some memorable places and stumbled across plenty of people who left an impact on him and rejuvenated his American spirit.  He shares those experiences on the podcast and details how the 5,000 mile trip didn't quite go as planned. The pandemic, forest fires and hurricanes were all obstacles he encountered along the way, but he never gave up mainly due to two reasons — the youth services he was riding for and the kind, caring people he met on the ride. Through his ride, Mel raised about $14,000 for youth programs in the community. At the end, Mel also discusses the return of the CHAFE 150 this year after the event was canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic.
