Are you ready to learn how a bill travels through the Capitol?
Do you want to practice testifying on an important bill in a low-pressure setting?
Are you excited to meet like-minded health freedom lovers?
Once again, Health Freedom Idaho will host an educational day at our State Capitol. Join us for a tour of the building and training on HOW to testify at a committee hearing, and this year we will even host a MOCK committee meeting so that you can learn the etiquette and protocols of a hearing.
This is a wonderful homeschool field trip opportunity. You don’t have to attend all day. Come when you can, and you will still get a LOT of education on our state government and be empowered to actively pursue liberty in our state throughout the legislative session 2023, which runs from January to the end of March.
The state of Idaho is insisting on prosecuting Baby Cyrus’ Mom, Marissa, for protecting her baby.
Marissa’s 1st hearing: Officer Steve Hansen “I told her multiple times she could go as soon as she gave me her child”
Actually what he said was, “Just give us the baby, and you can be on your merry way.” This protective mother wrapped her arms tighter around her son and shook her head and said she couldn’t do that. She pled to stay with her son. This is a loving protective mother who was shown to cause NO HARM to her child the case dimissed in May of 2022!
The state of Idaho is prosecuting this young mom with Resisting and Obstructing charges because she would not voluntarily hand over her nursing baby to them. They had no reasonable cause, no warrant. The officer said to give the baby over, “and you can go on your merry way,” before forcefully taking the nursing infant from her arms, putting her in handcuffs, and booking her into Ada County Jail, where her father and husband had to bail her out. Because there was very evidently no reasonable cause and because of public outrage, CPS returned the baby, dismissed the case, and dropped charges, but the State is still prosecuting this young mom. The sentence could be 6 months in jail and a fine if convicted.
This video was streamed lived by the young mom Marissa as she watched her husband and sister (mistaken for her) get arrested by Merdian Police in Idaho. Thousands of individuals have heard the story. This young mom pleaded to stay with her child – a sick little boy for that; she was seeking medical care and treatments. This family is close friends with Health Freedom Idaho leadership, and it was a devastating time for us all! After much public outcry, the local CPS office returned the baby to his family. There is still outstanding is the charge against this young mother for resisting while they snatched her nursing baby from her arms. We need you to stand by her against this corruption. This loving mother did what all of us would do by protecting our children!
On March 11th, 2022, after my daughter Marissa and my Son-in-law Levi had spent over 2 months of their lives and thousands of dollars out-of-pocket going to medical specialists trying to determine the cause of their son, Baby Cyrus’s cyclical vomiting syndrome, they canceled one single weigh-in appointment with Nurse Aaron Dykstra of Functional Medicine of Idaho.
The appointment was at 10:00 am that morning, but Marissa woke up feeling under the weather and called to cancel her appointment. Nobody answered, so she left a message and went back to sleep. At 10:20 am, just 20 minutes after the originally scheduled appointment, Nurse Aaron Dykstra called CPS and started a chain of events that ultimately ended in violence and abduction.
A few hours later, CPS social worker Nice Loufoua sent Marissa a text message, and about an hour after that, Meridian police showed up at my house looking for Baby Cyrus and Levi, who were not at my house.
Later that evening, after Marissa was feeling better, we left as a family to have dinner at a friend’s house who himself is a former police officer. Apparently, local law enforcement had put out a BOLO, which means “Be on the Look out” for Levi’s truck—so the entire local area law enforcement was looking for Levi, all because they canceled a single weigh-in appointment.
We later learned that Meridian Police illegally traced Levi’s cell phone by demanding that his cell phone provider turn over location data from pings to his cell phone. They found out where Levi and the rest of us were, having dinner at a friend’s house, and waited for hours until we left and then proceeded to pull Levi over at a Chevron gas station in Garden City on Chinden Blvd.
At that point, around 15 to 20 police officers showed up and began acting like tyrants and thugs, abusing my family with excessive force. Sargent Christopher McGilvery pulled Levi out of the truck without cause or reason, slammed him up against the truck, and then put him in handcuffs.
The officer in charge was Jeff Fuller. He himself made the declaration of “imminent danger” with zero evidence. He claimed to be using “what the doctors” have said, though there was not a single doctor who had made any such claim regarding Baby Cyrus. In fact, in his own police report, Jeff Fuller admits that he based his declaration of “imminent danger” on the words of Nurse Tracy Jungman, who is not a doctor, and who had never even seen Baby Cyrus. To make a life-altering diagnosis on a patient without ever having seen them is medical malpractice. Yet, that is exactly what happened here, and Jeff Fuller was happy to do so.
INTERVIEW BY RICK GREEN WITHIN HOURS OF THE STATE KIDNAPPING
CPS knew that Baby Cyrus was not in imminent danger as they had already lined up a foster family to take him in that very night, demonstrating that he did not need to be with a doctor and was not about to die or in danger of “serious physical or mental injury.” The claim of “imminent danger” was, by their own admission, a complete and total lie!
Further evidence of this is the fact that the attending physician at St Luke’s Meridian reviewed Baby Cyrus and the medical records indicate she said the following:
The sending physician handed us the pt [i.e. patient] secured in his car seat. She indicated the patient was in stable condition and requested that we leave promptly. She stated, “just go! This is a healthy baby with no interventions”…no acute life threats noted.
So CPS admitted Baby Cyrus was not in imminent danger, and the St. Luke’s physician likewise admitted that Baby Cyrus as not in imminent danger but was a “healthy baby with no interventions,” and even though imminent danger means that your life is threatened and you are about to die, the physician stated clearly that there were “no acute life threats noted.”
The proof is clear and simple—Baby Cyrus was never in “imminent danger”—it was all a lie and the authorities knew it! Yet they kidnapped him anyway.
Now, if you didn’t previously know or understand what Nancy Schaefer declared to the whole world about the Corrupt Business of Child Protective Services, then none of this would make sense. But we now know that the state of Idaho, along with an endless amount of bureaucrats, makes money off of these kidnappings. Nancy Schaefer lost her life for exposing this truth.
Force must be Necessary and Measured.
In the final analysis, All Government is Force. Force must be necessary and measured. Arrests are seizures. Taking a child under the authority of “imminent danger” is another kind of seizure based on the state’s subjective interpretation of circumstances. Separating a child from a parent is traumatic, to say the least, for both sides. Such action requires the most careful scrutiny. In considering the exercise of such force, it is best to err on the side of liberty and to apply moral agency when the government steps into the family. The same goes for domestic violence calls. Overreaction can cause more harm than the real or perceived concern at hand. Sometimes things are not as they appear at the onset of a complaint. Will the reasonable and necessary standard hold up here when measured against the state’s actions? Was baby Cyrus really in “imminent danger,” as the state’s actions assert, or was he in the best place he could ever be: in the loving, capable, competent care of his parents? The state is, in essence, guilty until proven innocent in any seizure. The burden of proof is on the state. They must walk their actions back to the information that spawned this exercise of force and is judged. Discussions that are most productive at this moment are not about the one unfolding but over similar circumstances in our state that have run their course and prove overreach of the Administrative State in Idaho, of which H&W is a part. Current events bring to light a concern I’ve long heard citizens voice regarding CPS/H&W.
Doug Traubel, Candidate for Sheriff
Here’s an open letter to the police regarding their misuse of force against this young mother and her nursing baby. Several points were made:
What logical reason do your officers have to tear the child away from his nursing mother, who clearly posed zero threat to the health and well-being of the child?
She could have stayed with her baby in the ambulance and in the hospital, but you ripped that child away from his primary source of nutrition. This is child endangerment. Please explain your justification—thousands of breastfeeding mothers would like to know.
What justification do you have for the Meridian police officer who repeatedly lied to Marissa on camera and promised her that she would never be separated from Baby Cyrus and that she would be able to ride with him in the ambulance to the hospital?
Legislation is being proposed in the 2022 session to protect families with sick children from having CPS involvement when a family seeks medical help.
It is CRITICAL that our parental rights are protected. Our children are given to us BY GOD, and these inherent rights need to be protected from state departments that have claimed authority over the lives of families. Medical Kidnap is the wrongful removal of a minor or vulnerable adult from a parent or guardian by law enforcement and/or a social worker. Parents/Guardians should always have the final decision in the child or vulnerable adults’ medical care and treatment until those parental rights are terminated by due process in a court.
We are a part of a herd of friends and family. Sometimes we feel there is security in numbers. But what if your herd’s destination is a cliff? What will you do to stop the stampede of your herd as it charges head-first toward self-destruction?
Idaho means freedom, family, and the right to worship. Idaho means the right to protect yourself and help your neighbor when they need a hand. Idaho also means mind your business and the opposite of marshall law.
In early 2020 our world turned upside down. Thousands of employees and staff of our local medical facilities were told if they didn’t submit to medication ‘ prescribed/mandated’ by ‘private businesses,’ then they would lose their employment. Thousands stood by their side. They still lost their jobs. We lost their expertise and their experience in our medical facilities.
Despite a huge public outcry, consisting of more than 31,000 public comments posted on the CDC’s website, despite hundreds of experts warning of serious risks to children, the Centers for Disease Control has voted to add the Covid mRNA vaccine to the VFC Program, which provides free Vaccines for children and as well as add the COVID-19 vaccines for children as young as six months old to the new Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedules, which will be rolled out in February 2023. This will add 54 injections (72 antigens because of combined shots like MMR) to 72 injections (90 antigens.) Its nothing to do with health. This will allow the pharmaceutical companies to escape product liability which means the “emergency” can end, but the liability protection for the pharmaceutical companies continues.
More than a dozen states automatically add new CDC recommendations to their required schedule of vaccines for schools and daycares.There is information about vaccine laws and exemptions in every state here.
TELL HEALTH DEPARTMENT NO! WE DON’T WANT THE COVID VAX FOR SCHOOL
Idaho will require the Health Department to submit a rule change to the legislature. Prior to that submission, they are required to host public hearings. IT IS TIME TO SPEAK UP NOW AND SAY “NO!”
“Every state must reject this CDC mandate for children immediately. Even the CDC’s own data reveals that these COVID shots are harming children. Pharmaceutical companies merely see children as a budget item to increase their bottom line and they continue to ignore the serious adverse events and deaths caused by these experimental shots.”
Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver
Call to Action
We know you are outraged and want to take action immediately. Now is the time for the parents and grandparents to reach out to the Health Department, the Education Department, and school administration, as well as the legislators who are running for office, and let them know that there is no medical or scientific justification to add a vaccine to the childhood schedule especially when there is no clinical data to justify shot.
Parents hold power — don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
Make clear to your superintendent and commissioner that exemptions are not enough and that you will be pulling your child from school if this vaccine is mandated for attendance, costing the district tens of thousands of dollars in funding.
Sherri Ybarra: Superintendent of Public Instruction Telephone 208-334-2270 Fax 208-334-2632
Today’s vote on adding the COVID-19 vaccines means 18 more shots — one per year between the ages of 6 months and 18 years — will be added to the schedule, according to Toby Rogers, Ph.D.
“So overnight the childhood schedule would go from 54 injections (72 antigens because of combined shots like MMR) to 72 injections (90 antigens),” Rogers said. “This has absolutely nothing to do with health — it’s all about profit and power.”
The accepted COVID-19 vaccine recommendations that will go into effect in 2023 include the following primary series:
Age 6 months-4 years: 2-dose series at 0, 4-8 weeks (Moderna) or 3-dose series at 0, 3-8, 11-16 weeks (Pfizer-BioNTech)
Age 5-11 years: 2-dose series at 0, 4-8 weeks (Moderna) or 2-dose series at 0, 3-8 weeks (Pfizer-BioNTech)
Age 12-18 years: 2-dose series at 0, 4-8 weeks (Moderna) or 2-dose series at 0, 3-8 weeks (Novavax, Pfizer-BioNTech)
For children who are moderately or severely immunocompromised, the recommended primary doses are increased from a 2-dose series to a 3-dose series.
CDC DATA REFLECTS THE SHOT IS NOT SAFE FOR CHILDREN!
Ironically, the CDC presented data at its ACIP meeting on September 1, 2022, that confirms that COVID shots are not safe for children. The data presented were summaries of reports from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), Vaccine Safety Data Link (VSD), a private insurance-based system that monitors hospital records, and V-safe, a voluntary smartphone-based monitoring program that relies on text messages and web surveys.
The data presented at the ACIP meeting revealed that within seven days after vaccination, 40-50 percent of children 5-11 years of age reported a “systemic reaction,” 10-15 percent had a “health impact,” and 2-4 percent needed “medical care.” Within seven days of vaccination, 60-75 percent of children 12-17 years had “any systemic reaction,” 10 to 25 percent were “unable to perform daily activities,” and 5 to 20 percent were “unable to work or attend school.”
Therefore, more than 30 percent of children in this age group had a health impact after the second shot, and booster dose, and approximately 2 percent needed medical care.
The CDC data clearly shows that these injections are not safe for children and teens and should be discontinued immediately. Other countries, like the UnitedKingdom, stopped the COVID shots for children under 12 years, except for children in high-risk categories. Sweden has also decided against recommending COVID shots for children aged 5-11. (SOURCE)
Government Protects the Billion Dollar Pharmaceutical Companies at the Expense of Our Children
By adding the COVID shots to the childhood schedule, transferring liability for vaccine injuries to the federal government’s National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). This delivers permanent legal protection to Pfizer and Moderna by allowing them to bring an FDA-approved shot to the market without facing lawsuits and bring in billions of dollars in revenues for the drug companies.
Pharmaceutical companies are not liable for injuries or deaths associated with Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) injections but can be held liable for injuries caused by a fully licensed “vaccine,” unless that shot is added to the CDC’s childhood schedule. This means liability protection also includes the adult COVID shots as well. This will allow the pharmaceutical companies to escape product liability which means the “emergency” can end, but the liability protection continues.
REPORTED INJURY AND DEATH ARE NOT ADEQUATELY TRACKED
Vaccine injury reports have skyrocketed since the COVID vaccines. This voluntary reporting system doesn’t adequately track the injuries and deaths associated with the shots. Individuals experiencing reactions are not reported by medical facilities in a consistent or regular basis. However, the reports that are coming in are shocking and leave little doubt that this shot is causing long-term harm to many. OpenVaers.com
More than 83% of Idaho CPS investigations are based on bogus and false claims. The department says it must investigate every call.
CPS investigates 45,000 Idaho families each year- will your family be a target?
In every one of those cases, CPS has told the parents that they must submit to questioning and entry into their home. In addition, CPS investigators tell parents they must present their children for interrogation and examination of the children by government workers outside of the presence of the parents.
Idaho CPS social workers say that “nobody ever questions” these intrusions into the family home and the privacy of the relationship between parents and children.
Based on years of being with families as they walk through the CPS investigation, we determined that there are five critical steps you must take to protect your children during a CPS investigation.
I recently saw a sign hanging from an overpass that said, “We can’t comply ourselves out of tyranny.” Sadly, in an effort to keep from rocking the boat, many of us toe the line even when we know it’s a violation of our constitutional rights. It is a pervasive idea among the American (and global) population that “simple” compliance with authority will yield the best results. People think that if they follow mandates issued by the government, eventually, their lives will return to normal. This may be true in some regard, but you cannot comply your way out of tyranny– and that compliance will only give greater power to those in control.
Even if your life returns to what it was before the pandemic (which there is little evidence to show that will happen, even after more than two years of compliance), the thick stench of tyranny does not wash away. Your life may eventually return to “normal,” but not because of a voluntary community effort, but because those you’ve given the power to allow it to return to normal. There’s a chance you may get the results you seek through compliance, but the tyranny remains.
This past Friday, Sean Feucht of Let Us Worship spoke to a group of thousands of Idahoan Christians about the fact that local churches shuttered their doors out of fear. He challenged our church leaders to stand up and, next time, take the lead to honor God above the government.
Think of what life would be like now had more churches, businesses, and individuals stood up to the tyranny. We The People, are the authority; we don’t have to submit to tyranny. Many churches deferred to the “authorities” because of Romans 13, but they fail to understand that our government at its essence, is vastly different from the Roman empire in that WE are the authority. The 501c3 entanglement further compromises the institutionalized church.
Victory for Mike McClure, Non-Compliant Pastor in California
Two Years Ago, Pastor Mike McClure, from Calvary Chapel San Jose remained open in defiance of orders from San Jose. He faced $1,200,000 in mounting fines. He won’t budge. Most “pastors” and Churches have turned their back on him. Still, he did not comply and accepted no deals. He risked it all. The California Court of Appeal finds “public health” orders forcing church closure are UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

Non Compliance at the Workplace
Our inalienable rights have been trampled over the past two years. It didn’t start then; however, it came to a head in March 2020 when the Governor announced that this pandemic wouldn’t be over nor would normally return until people were vaccinated. Keep in Mind this was before the development of the vaccine started! *Governors across the United States were given the same script.
As an organization, we challenge citizens to challenge our elected officials and unelected leaders to stand up and honor the Constitution. I am proud to say that many who knew better threw off the chains of apathy and took a stand against unconstitutional mandates.
Many individuals did so to the point of losing their livelihoods. Our website and social media channels experienced EXTREME censorship. But, we continued to press on. We protested at the Capitol, at the Central Health District (while snipers pointed weapons at women and children). We stood with nurses, doctors, and hospital employees who knew better than the average citizen how to read the science and challenged the lack of scientific data backing the mandates.

Non Compliance with Boise’s Mandates
Mask mandates were among the most controversial issues in Idaho in 2020, but that chapter of state history has come to an end with Boise Mayor Lauren McLean eliminating the city’s mask mandate and gathering limit on May 14, 2021.
Boise was among the last of the local governments in Idaho – a total of nine counties and 10 cities – with a mask mandate in place. In Boise, disobeying the mask mandate in any public area, including parks and trails, was considered a misdemeanor crime, punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 and up to six months in jail.
Susan was ordered jail time for protesting this mandate.
They have set the precedents to close us down and lock us up when we don’t comply with the tyrannical mandates and restrictions.
What have we learned?
What have we taught our children?
What needs to change?
Are you willing to make the sacrifice to keep your children and grandchildren from living under tyranny?
Thea’s son Daniel was taken by CPS from his father, who lives in Idaho. Thea lives in Arizona and had no charges against her YET her son was kidnapped by Idaho CPS.
The state delayed the hearing, which should have reunited mother and son. Consequently, Daniel was placed into foster care. As if these events weren’t outrageous enough, the foster parents and the school 🗣 LOST DANIEL!
Daniel, has autism which gives him an IEP for his special needs at school. The state, including CPS, case workers, foster parents, and the school, should be well aware of Daniel’s needs. At home, with his mother, Daniel has a guide who stays with him all day to make sure he gets to where he needs to go. Now, in foster care, he is lost in the bus system, lost and confused, not knowing where to go. Brown Bus Co called Thea at 4:44 pm, who desperately wants her son back and has never had this problem, to let her know they had her son and he was lost. Thea reached out to the police for help. The same police who took her son returned Daniel to the foster parents, who already seemed to be neglecting him.
🙇♀Can you imagine if you lost your special needs child and they were found on a bus hours after school got out? CPS would definitely take your child and call it neglect. If a foster parent loses a special needs child, it’s swept under the rug, shrugged off, and the police return the child to the negligent foster parents. Sick! 😡
Thea was able to hire a private attorney due to your support. She is desperate to get her son back as she has been cut off from visitations, most like in retaliation for her speaking out against the corrupt CPS who has stolen her son. Please help her raise funds needed for her attorney and stay in Idaho. 💝
On August 12, 2022, CDC updated its guidelines. To the surprise of all, vaccinated and unvaccinated will be treated the same. There are no additional restrictions in place for those unwilling to subject their bodies to experimental medical products. Now, two years later, after unconstitutional medical mandates that left hundreds of thousands fired – the data reflects the fact that their experimental vaccine DOES NOT impact the death rate from the sickness.
Almost a quarter of a million individuals suffered life-threatening, long-term, or permanent reactions from experimental and liablity-free vaccinations. More than a million reports were submitted to the national database that tracks vaccine reactions.
COVID-19 death rates are nearly the same in all age groups reported whether or not a person is vaccinated. It would be difficult for the CDC to have different guidelines based on vaccination status since the data show no clear benefit of vaccinations.
IRIS is Idaho’s Immunization Tracking system. Your family is AUTOMATICALLY ENTERED into the system by authorized health care providers, child care providers, and schools. Is this a gross violation of privacy?
Your children’s medical information is likely in the government’s database RIGHT NOW! You must OPT OUT to have your information removed from the IRIS database.
Once your information is shared within the government tracking database, authorized 3rd parties can take the information and use it as they wish.
While you can opt out of IRIS and purge your child’s information from their IRIS system, you are unable to purge it from the third-party systems once it has been accessed.
Idaho’s Immunization Reminder Information System (IRIS) is a secure health information system containing the names and immunization history of people who have received vaccinations in Idaho. This information is available only to authorized health care providers, child care providers, and schools. Participation in IRIS is voluntary, and you may opt-out at any time by contacting the Idaho Immunization Program at (208)334-5931 and requesting an opt-out form or by completing this online opt-out form.
Two options are available for opting out of IRIS for yourself, your minor child (under the age of 18 years), or a person for whom you are a legal guardian:
Option 1: Remove only immunization-related information from IRIS. Only demographic information is retained in IRIS, including name, address, phone number, mother’s maiden name, date of birth, and gender. Demographic information will not be viewable by medical providers, schools or childcare staff. By making this selection, I understand that allowing demographic information to be retained in IRIS will reduce the chance of accidental or intentional re-entry of vaccination information about me/him/her.
Option 2: Remove all information from IRIS – immunization and demographic. By making this selection, I understand that at any time, information regarding myself, my child, or person for whom I am a legal guardian, may be re-entered by a health care provider. I understand that I must work with my health care provider(s) to ensure this information is not re-entered into IRIS.
CLICK HERE to have your private medical information removed from IRIS.
Do you think our tracking system should be something you can OPT into if you wish rather than being forced in? It’s time to let our legislators know we want them to make this change!
IRIS tracking system is NOT voluntary as an OPT OUT system. It is a gross violation of privacy. Please support legislation that changes the Health Department’s vaccine tracking system to an OPT IN by choice system.
The following representatives voted against the automatic tracking of adults into the IRIS system. Contact these Representatives and thank them for protecting their privacy and ask them to sponsor a bill that removes the automatic entry of our children’s information.
