For twenty-four years, Judge Spaulding served in Musselshell County having been preceded by Judge Rodeghiero. Being the youngest district judge ever elected at the time, he was thirty years old when he took the bench. Previous to that he had also been one of the youngest attorneys when he was hired as the county attorney for Musselshell County. In a similar transition, as Judge Spaulding retires, our current County Attorney Adam Larsen will be replacing him after the election. Adam is running...
By Angie Mozqueda Prevention Specialist Parents may allow underage drinking for a variety of reasons. Some believe that permitting their teens to drink in a controlled environment can help them learn to handle alcohol responsibly, reducing the allure of sneaking around to drink. Others may have cultural or familial backgrounds where moderate drinking is normalized, viewing it as a rite of passage. Additionally, some parents might feel that as long as their children are safe at home, it's better to allow them to drink rather than risk them...
Fox News published an article titled, “BLM’s Western Solar Plan is ‘fantasy world,’ relies heavily on taxpayer dollars: GOP congressman” detailing Congressman Matt Rosendale’s disagreements with Bureau of Land Management’s updated Western Solar Plan, which aims to restrict 31 million acres of land across 11 states for the development of solar fields. The article states: “Rosendale said he is concerned that the Western Solar Plan violates the Taylor Grazing Act, which regulates grazing on public lands, and will produce intermittent en...
It’s ironic that the very groups who vilify rich, out-of-staters are the same ones backing rich out-of-state big city organizations who are trying to get us to amend our constitution. What’s it to them? Montanans worked hard to frame our constitution and won’t change it for irrelevant nonsense. We don’t need single party ballots. We wouldn’t be “divided” if we weren’t being enflamed by these hateful campaign ads and “sensational” newscasts shoving hateful things in our faces. And that sounds like they’re working toward single party governme...
One of George Orwell's books Nineteen eight-four has become a legend to freedom loving Americans.Sadly the book contents have come true. The progressives have captured the Democrat party. Having two people who claim to be Democrats with a background of marxist policies,proves my point. The old Democrat party that President Andrew Jackson founded in the 1830.s can no longer survive under the communist grip of Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz. If these radical left wingers get inside our government the United States will not operate...
Some people tell me not to vote for Domald Trump because he has a temper. Fooey! I have a temper, and I’m a reasonably intelligent, patriotic, and capable person. I’d rather a president have one of those than be a spineless puddle of mush. Can you picture Obiden leading a charge up San Juan Hill? Harris? Obama? Some say not to vote for him because he calls people names. Fooey! The Democrat model of a perfect Republican is somebody that sits quietly, takes all the name-calling and lies they pour out but doesn’t counter-attack. That model stupi...
Voting season is here again. It is a little bit like voting in the Legislature—you have to sort a few things out. Let me give you some tips I use when deciding how to vote on a bill. The first thing I do is see who is sponsoring the bill. Then I look at who supports or who opposes the bill. These two principles tell me a lot. Let’s take a look at what is on the ballot. First, let’s talk about Constitutional Initiatives 126 and 127. Both of these initiatives are being pushed by liberal Republicans and a Democrat. Most of the money coming in to...
Election 2024: Prediction and Reasoning The last few weeks (sometimes the last few months) of a presidential election cycle always leave me feeling somewhat burnt out. As a political columnist, I prefer to focus on events, policy, and principles rather than on the horse race. I'm really not very invested in which "major party" politician lies convincingly enough, to enough voters, to get hold of the One Ring and attempt (with little success, thankfully) to rule us all for the next four years. Unfortunately, a political columnist lives and dies...
As Montana gears up to enter colder weather and another respiratory illness season, the Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS) is encouraging Montanans to take precautions to help protect against COVID-19, influenza, pneumococcal pneumonia, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections. State health officials are urging people to protect themselves and their families from respiratory illness, stay up to date on immunizations, stay home when they are sick, get tested and evaluated for proper treatment, and practice good...

Did you catch the comet? The human mind may find it difficult to conceptualize: a cosmic cloud so colossal it surrounds the Sun and eight planets as it extends trillions of miles into deep space. The spherical shell known as the Oort Cloud is, for all practical purposes, invisible. Its constituent particles are spread so thinly, and so far from the light of any star, including the Sun, that astronomers simply cannot see the cloud, even though it envelops us like a blanket. Astronomers infer the Oort Cloud is there because it's the only logical...
Governor Greg Gianforte called out President Joe Biden and Department of Interior Secretary Deb Haaland ahead of any politically-motivated monument designations without state collaboration that would threaten the Montana way of life. In a letter, the governor outlined the history of past presidential actions taken during the heat of a political campaign or in the final days of an administration to issue directives to allocate lands as monuments. “Less than 50 days from the 1996 presidential election, President Bill Clinton stood in Arizona to a...

HELENA – Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen led a coalition of seven attorneys general in filing an amicus brief in support of a lawsuit challenging a Biden-Harris administration rule that would allow illegal immigrants to remain where they are in the United States, while also allowing them the possibility of employment and affording them access to public benefits programs. The brief, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, supports a lawsuit challenging the Biden-Harris administration's "...
