"Just for the Love of it", an unusual new business in town is all about holistic healthcare for animals. Holistic healthcare for animals is a method of healing through relaxation to help regulate the immune system, which creates a cycle of healing. Kris Miller, Certified Practitioner through graduate study of Healing Touch for Animals, explains to me that, once an animal is in a state of relaxation, the immune system comes back into balance, then the animal will then begin to create a positive...

By Katrina McNiven (Reprinted with the permission of Yellowstone County News) In a surprising move, Musselshell County Judge Randal I. Spaulding issued a ruling from the bench on Wednesday, January 6, dismissing the lawsuit brought by Jonathan McNiven, owner and publisher of the Yellowstone County News. Spaulding ruled that Roundup Public Schools were within their rights to prevent media from attending sports events at their schools due to the extraordinary circumstances surronding COVID. “There is a compelling government interest in curbing C...

Californication of America With the incoming communist regime of Joe Biden, the nation's move to a state of Californication is right on track. California currently has a debt of 570 billion dollars. The cost of gasoline is $3.64/gallon. The state regularly experiences rolling black-outs. The state is a one-party state with no descent. 10% of the US population lives in California. California has some of the most stringent environmental controls globally, which anyone can see when purchasing any product; California has its warning labels on...
Taking the concept that 'All politics are local.' The best ideas and solutions are to be found locally. I believe Musselshell County is ready for a tea-party type movement. This group should focus itself on the goings-on of state government. Over time this group could coordinate with other chapters around the state as they spring up. Taking an active part and genuinely being a watchdog of the legislature, all statewide offices, and the lower level bureaucracies will ensure that Montana does not suffer the collapse of self-government that is...
Because of Biden's rhetoric on border security, we now have 9,000 illegals from central America who are planning on forcing their way into our country at Tex/Mex border. There is NO way in hell, we can maintain the Biden economy agenda. Sadly, I see the country impolding.Now another surge of illegals that want to take and drain us of everything we have worked for!! While Washington village idiots argue about statues, face mask, China is on move, when we collapse China will rule the world and us! Nancy Kemler Roundup...
By Rep. Dennis Lenz In the wake of the tumultuous 2020 elections, Americans now face additional uncertainty over just how far the Democrats in control of Congress will try to push their radical plans to reshape our country. These next few years promise to be increasingly volatile if Democrats follow through on threats to force us down a socialist path. The centerpiece of their leftist agenda is BidenCare, a plan to establish full government control of your healthcare, eventually arriving at full-on Medicare for All. BidenCare centers around...
Our Founding Fathers knew that we would face enemies of the Republic, foreign and domestic, who would seek to overthrow us—even from within. Normally this is seen as another country attacking us but does include ideologies to destroy the Republic and/or cyber warfare as is the case with China and Iran. World War II was against Adolph Hitlers’ socialism and the Cold Wars (Korean and Vietnam) were also against socialism. Hundreds of thousands of American soldiers died in these wars fighting socialism in other lands and now we are fighting it on...
"[T]o restore the soul and to secure the future of America," President Joe Biden said in his inaugural speech, "requires more than words. It requires that most elusive of things in a democracy: Unity. ... This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward." The bad news: Where politics is concerned, "unity" is a pipe dream. The good news: Where human flourishing is concerned, the ersatz "unity" demanded by politicians like Joe Biden is neither necessary nor desirable. There's nothing wrong with unity as such....

The Roundup Panthers traveled to Winnett to take on the Rams in a non-conference affair Tuesday night. The game got off to a relatively slow start as both teams struggled to make shots. The Rams put a run together behind consecutive three point shots to jump out to an eight point margin. Braedan scored the next 8 points for the Panthers to narrow the gap but that was as close as the Panthers would get for the rest of the game. It was a frustrating night for the Panthers as the basket seemed to have a lid on it. The Panthers missed many...

BILLINGS – The face of a sandstone cliff overlooking Pictograph Cave State Park east of Billings collapsed this week, sending boulders over the roadway and a hiking trail. Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks officials have closed the park indefinitely until they can repair the roadway and assess the potential for additional rock falls. Nobody was injured and no buildings were damaged by the rock fall, which left boulders – ranging in size from a basketball to twice as big as a car – strewn at th...
