This weekly column features news stories and event announcements from around the American Redoubt region. (Idaho, Montana, eastern Oregon, eastern Washington, and Wyoming.) Much of the region is also more commonly known as The Inland Northwest. We also mention companies of interest to preppers and survivalists that are located in the American Redoubt region. Today, we focus on the new book Survival And Resistance In Evangelical America.
New In Print: Survival And Resistance In Evangelical America: Christian Reconstruction In The Pacific Northwest. JWR Notes: The American Redoubt movement figures prominently in this scholarly book.

JWR’s Comments: Whenever you hear about legislation aimed at “saving” or “protecting” a species of wildlife or wildlife habitat, you have to ask “Cui bono?” It is usually about expanding government power, restricting landowner rights, and increasing the tax base.

BLM activist arrested in relation to Lincoln statue defacement in Idaho. The article begins:
“A Black Lives Matter activist has been arrested for allegedly participating in the defacement of a statue of former President Lincoln in Idaho during Black History Month.
On Tuesday, the city of Boise said it had charged 37-year-old Terry Wilson with Injuring Monuments, Ornaments, and Public Improvements. Police initially responded on Feb. 1 to a report of vandalism at the bronze statue of Seated Lincoln in Julia Davis Park, which saw paint, feces and signs that were cleaned by parks and recreation crews. The statue was also reportedly wrapped in a ‘Black Lives Matter’ flag.”
