As I recall the ‘Official Story’ was that Jim died when his tractor turned over on him … yeah, like Helen Chenoweth Hage died in a car accident …
10/02/2006 – Helen Chenoweth-Hage, a conservative firebrand who served three terms as an Idaho congresswoman, was killed October 02, 2006 when thrown from a car that overturned on an isolated central Nevada highway. Chenoweth-Hage was killed four months after the death of her husband, Nevada rancher Wayne Hage, who battled the federal government for decades over public lands and private property rights and came to epitomize the Sagebrush Rebellion in the West. Hage had been ill and died in his sleep at age 69. http://www.lasvegassun.com/sunbin/stories/nevada/2006/oct/02/100210000.html
This guy was one of the best, smartest REAL truthtellers. That is why the mainstream saw to it he was labeled an anti-Semite nut and was put in jail. They only do that to the few best who ever get in congress.

I question whether he really died of an accident on a tractor.
Traficant the maverick! Always forceful and never compromising. Thank God for his service. He knew what he was up against, yet did not waver.
