Democrat elites despise rural voters. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels paved the way for their contempt by writing in The Communist Manifesto that the migration from small communities to large urban centers has “rescued a considerable part of the population from the idiocy of rural life.” Nearly 200 years later, it seems there is a migration in reverse, with elites invading the hinterlands to “rescue” rural folk from their continued idiocy.

One case in point is the recent episode at Wydaho Roasters, a coffee shop in deep-red Idaho, owned by a pro-abortion couple from deep-blue St. Paul, Minnesota, Jim and Mary Sheehan. Jim Sheehan has said his coffee house welcomes everyone. But in mid-August, when a pro-life group met there to quietly discuss how to defeat Idaho’s Proposition 1, a referendum that would allow abortions up to 24 weeks gestation, when babies are over a foot long and can survive outside the womb, Sheehan kicked them out. Kristan Hawkins, leader of the group of more than a dozen pro-lifers, posted a video of the incident:

Wydaho Roasters Coffee House just kicked out our@Campaign4AFC group, led by my 16-year-old son, Bear.

We weren’t protesting or disrupting anyone.… pic.twitter.com/LUu81WsSr5— Kristan Hawkins (@KristanHawkins) August 18, 2026

Sheehan compared the pro-life group to the Ku Klux Klan and said he worked to get pro-abortion candidates on the ballot in the state. Wydaho Roasters is located in the town of Driggs, Idaho, in the Teton Valley. National Geographic has rated Driggs as a top recreation location in America, which makes it a Mecca for white, affluent leftists. If you study the voting patterns and census information of Driggs, it’s clear the town has been overrun by leftists over the past 20 years.
