It is no surprise that the Democrat Party was so easily hijacked by the Left Progressives. I am after all, both Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Delaware Roosevelt set the stage for this with their push for socialism in America. Today the former Democrat Party has a agenda of total destruction of our country. They want to erase our Constitution,our electorate vote, continue to foolishly defund police.Allow open borders that let in all people unvetted into our nation that have no ties to it and disrespect our laws and moral compass values.Barack...
You cannot imagine how giddy I was when I opened the Ma 29, 2024 issue of the Roundup Record Tribune & Winnett Times newspaper and saw Nancy Kemler’s name at the end of letter to the editor before I even read what she wrote. In fact, as I typed this, I still haven’t read what she wrote. It doesn’t matter because she is always spot on! I’ve been a fan of her letters to the editor for years. Keep up the great work, Nancy.

Public Land Give-Away Senator Daines has introduced legislation to trade Federal coal and surface land to the Hope Family Trust. Though the bill is titled "The Crow Revenue Act" it was not introduced to benefit the Crow Nation. It benefits the owners of the Signal Peak Energy coal mine that is damaging range land, drying up springs and evicting ranchers who have worked this range for generations. This mine has benefitted from a multitude of "tax incentives" amounting to millions of dollars lost to both Musselshell and Yellowstone counties. Now...
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable...
“I write to encourage a call to action. We must immediately address the illegal immigration happening in Montana. I, as well as many Montanans have seen the numbers – fentanyl confiscation in Montana up by 20,000%, sex trafficking up by 116%, illegal immigration at our northern border up 597% with over 10,000 illegal immigrants crossing per month. These inexpiable numbers indicate two things: The failure of the Biden Administration to protect America from the influx of crime caused by the illegal immigration crisis on our border, and the nee...
Congressman Matt Rosendale (MT-02) released the following statement after President Biden introduced a new executive order which will permit a minimum of 1.8 million illegal immigrants to enter the country every year and will do nothing to fix the border crisis he created. “It is no surprise that after Biden’s election interference attempt last week backfired in the form of over $50 million in donations to his opponent, he is now scrambling,” said Rep. Rosendale. “This do-nothing executive order is pure showmanship that will do nothing to depo...
