    This is a response by Shirley Marking and Amy Angel to previous articles in the Roundup Record Tribune. Throughout our time at the county, we believed in being financially frugal as we were dealing with taxpayers’ money. We worked with numerous past commissioners and other elected officials without issue. Between us, we had over 45 years successfully working with nine different commissioners. We and the past commissioners worked hard to ensure that we never raised any unnecessary taxes or spent on unnecessary expenses. The article states that A...

    I would like to add the rest of the story to what Adam Carlson wrote about me when I attended the Republican Central Committee meeting. When asked how each of us would fund county roads Mr. Carlson was correct when I said the commissioners could raise the mills and I also said this would take a vote of the people who live out side the city of Roundup and the town of Melstone. This had been tried once and the voters had said no to the increase. I also said the County has almost 1 million dollars in cash in Federal Mineral Leasing revenue. This...

    Progressive Socialist Governor, Steve Bullock has ORDERED mail in voting ballots. Two years ago, Montana had a estimated population of about 5,000 illegals living in our state. This number has slowly been growing because of Mexican Cartel activity on our reservations dealing dangerous drugs, like meth. No ID is required for mail in voting. Absentee ballots require proof of identity. Do not allow this commie governor to order how we vote contact your state rep's and say "NO" to Steve Bullock. And also to illegal aliens voting in our sacred...

  • Extreme Kathleen's agenda of job loss and stagnation

    Aug 19, 2020

    As our economy begins to recover from the devastation caused by COVID-19, it is more important than ever that our lone representative in Congress be someone that stands for policies that will grow our economy and create jobs. After examining the records of the two candidates running, it is clear that candidate is Matt Rosendale—not Kathleen Williams. Matt Rosendale has a strong business background and a proven record of supporting pro-business policies as State Auditor and a member of the legislature. From providing tax relief, to rolling b...

    What we are dealing with,is a Biological technology that Chinese produced in a Wuhan China lab. The same lab,that Dr.Strangelove Fauci and Barack Obama visited together in 2015. We keep hearing about a miracle vaccine. A vaccine against a man-made virus is really almost impossible. Dr.Fauci and Globalist Bill Gates now this, but both these men own the patent to this mirable vaccine.So they want to profit from it whether or works or not ! A, mandatory vaccine was forced on children in Africa and India,this has killed children, the number...

  • The "Election Interference" Fearmongers Think You're Stupid

    Thomas L Knapp|Aug 12, 2020

    Xi Jinping and Ali Khamenei prefer Joe Biden to Donald Trump. Vladimir Putin prefers Donald Trump to Joe Biden. That's according to William Evanina, Director of the US National Counterintelligence and Security Center. "Many foreign actors," he says, "have a preference for who wins the election, which they express through a range of overt and private statements; covert influence efforts are rarer." I don't have the words to express how un-surprised I am to learn that foreign governments take an interest in, and have opinions on, who gets to run...

  • America's Frontline Doctors Censored by Big Tech

    Harold Pease PhD|Aug 12, 2020

    At least a dozen medical doctors from all over America assembled in front of the Supreme Court July 27 to counter the only message going forward allowed the American people with respect to the coronavirus. Many had already experienced the removal of their messages on Google, which owns 70% of most American media outside Fox News, including FaceBook, and YouTube (Tucker Carlson Tonight, June 16, 2020). Outside their COVID expertise they had one thing in common that made their contribution superior to those of Anthony Fauci (a vaccine-ologist),...

    Aug 12, 2020

    Recently an acquaintance clued me in on a matter that is providing me and mine with absolute hilarious delight. It was brought to my attention that a class of mentally challenged Roundup residents have had nothing to do but get on Facebook trying to stir dooky about me and I’d like to share that with the Roundup people who can actually read this editorial. In those comments, I’ve been accused of being an animal hater, child hater, and a threat to the community. I’ve recently had a conversation with the sheriff about these lying people who have...

  • Government Intervention Would Hurt Energy Producers

    Aug 12, 2020

    By Tom Giovanetti and Drew Johnson America's energy sector has seen better days. The recent price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia rocked oil and gas markets -- and the coronavirus outbreak has reduced demand and forced some companies in the renewable sector to stall projects and furlough workers. Despite these upheavals, the government has yet to intervene. The Trump administration chose not to impose tariffs on Saudi Arabia, and Congress left the renewable energy sector out of the first batch of COVID-19 stimulus packages. That's for the...

  • Suggested Questions for Adam Carlson:

    Aug 12, 2020

    1. Is he aware there is a case at the Montana Supreme Court where the Musselshell County Commissioners are named as the defendants? 2. Has this case ever been specifically mentioned in the Commissioner’s Minutes? 3. What is the cost to date of defending this case? 4. Why are they fighting this case? 5. Would it be much cheaper not to fight this case? David Simpson Roundup...

    Jesus Holds it Together Imagine yourself driving down the highway at 70 miles per hour. You meet someone driving in the opposite direction, and they are traveling at 70 miles per hour. You go past each other at maybe 10 to 20 feet apart or perhaps even less at a combined speed of 140 miles per hour. Do you ever stop and wonder what could go wrong? If you stop and think about it, there are quite a few factors involved, and many are out of your control. Complete control is the most crucial factor. Let's play a little pool. If you rack the balls...

    Thank God we have at least one member in the GOP who has wisdom and guts pertaining to the Democrat party. GOP Congressman Louie Gohmert has introduced a BAN on the party to continue to use the name "Democrat !" As these Progressive Socialst communist continue to push and allow the destruction of cities and our history,why should they keep a name that President Andrew Jackson gave this side of American politics. Obviously when members of the Left party, like Ilhan Omar,Rashida Thliab and AOC,want our beloved nation to fall into commie...

  • Mail in Ballot Fraud Worse than Admitted

    Harold Pease PhD|Aug 5, 2020

    Accessing truth is getting increasingly difficult. The political world has divided into two camps. Almost no outlet is interested in the middle anymore. Leftist publications give leftist propaganda and use leftist fact checkers to authenticate it. The same exists for rightist publications. Take voter fraud in mail-in balloting for example, virtually all Democrats see no crime, or possibility of crime in it, and advocate national mail in voting for 2020. Virtually all Republicans see voter fraud as an outcome and a way to rig elections for the...

  • Economy Wilts While Governor Sits on $1 Billion Covid 19 Fund

    Aug 5, 2020

    By Sen. Cary Smith & Sen. Doug Kary Montana’s economy has wilted and withered since the so-called pandemic arrived in early March. Our “wannabe president/wannabe senator/lame duck governor” has done little except bankrupt main street merchants. Revenues for state government are sinking. As veteran state legislators and members of the Senate Finance and Claims Committee, this troubles us. It appears that our state coffers are being drained so the next legislature will inherit serious red ink. President Trump, Sen. Steve Daines and Congr...

  • Governor Continues to Block Office of Public Instruction from the Table

    Aug 5, 2020

    I am optimistic for the coming school year. I would rather be talking about the positive vision for Montana education than the Governor’s vacant leadership lacking transparency. On March 3rd, the Governor created Montana’s Coronavirus Task Force, leaving out a significant sector impacted by COVID-19; the education community. Under pressure, the Governor’s staff allowed the Office of Public Instruction (OPI) to participate. After a few in-person and virtual meetings attended by the OPI’s school health and safety experts, the OPI received an emai...

  • Academic Research Can't End the Pandemic without Private Backing

    Aug 5, 2020

    By Jon Soderstrom, Ph.D. Scientists at Yale University and scores more research institutions nationwide are working around the clock to identify potential avenues of diagnosing, preventing, and treating COVID-19. Many of these projects are backed by the federal government's National Institutes of Health. Any one of them could lead to a game-changing insight that helps end this pandemic. For any of these efforts to succeed, however, it will take more than government-funded laboratory research. The reality is that in the United States, medical...

    Are you sick and tired of a certain political party destroying your quality of life and taking your peace o f mind away? So am I. Time to fight seriously back at the Progressive Socialist party. Now this same group of Anti Americans threaten NOT to open our public schools until their sociaist demands are met. Their demands have nothing to do with this political virus. Once again,Teacher's Unions and Liberals are using your children as pawns in this political hack against President Trump and our culture. YOU are tax payers we pay property taxes...

  • New York Times Stalks Tucker Carlson! Family Afraid, Again!!

    Harold Pease PhD|Jul 29, 2020

    At the close of the cable news show "Tucker Carlson Tonight" July 20, 2020, Tucker had the strangest ending that I have ever heard a news anchor announce. I could feel his fear for his family It began normal, “Well, all of a sudden the media have ripped off the mask and they're supporting violence as a political tactic. They spent the last few months describing the riots as mostly peaceful. It provided cover for rioting. They've watched conservative speakers shut down, their families harassed.” I have published similar sentences describing the...

  • We Must Reignite Montana's Economy

    Jul 29, 2020

    By Matt Rosendale Our state, and our country, has never faced a challenge like the one we are confronted with today. COVID-19, and the ensuing shutdown sent shockwaves through our economy. The consequences have been devastating, and we are only beginning to see its full impact. Over the last few months, we’ve experienced economic carnage unlike any period in my lifetime. Many business owners had to make the difficult decision to tell loyal employees that the paycheck they were depending on wouldn’t be coming. Countless others have been for...

  • New Russia Sanctions Bill Compromises National Security

    Jul 29, 2020

    By Drew Johnson Russia plans to meddle in the 2020 election, according to a statement jointly issued by the FBI, Department of Justice, and National Security Agency. Such interference threatens our democracy. It's unacceptable. And to prevent it, a handful of senators recently proposed new sanctions on Russia. In theory, these penalties will deter the Kremlin from sowing chaos and disinformation over the next five months. But in practice, the sanctions won't faze Vladimir Putin or his thugs. The penalties are so broadly targeted, they'd hit...

  • Corrections to Last Weeks Editorial

    Jul 29, 2020

    In the first paragraph, 2nd sentence where I named the 4 individuals that wanted to be considered to replace a county commission seat vacated by Adam Carlson. I listed (Mark) Turley as one of the candidates. It should have been Mike Turley my apologies. The second correction that needs to be made is where I listed Sue Olson as one of the individuals that wanted to “sweep under the rug their mishandling and gross negligence of county finances.” I should only have placed the blame squarely on Robert Goffena’s slumped shoulders. My apolo...

  • THE FINANCIAL FOCUS

    Jul 29, 2020

    By Michael Vondra When Facing Illness, Take Control of Finances In light of the coronavirus pandemic, virtually all of us have considered health-related issues. But for people facing a serious, chronic illness, such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, diabetes or cancer, health concerns are an everyday matter. If you’re fortunate, you may never be afflicted with such maladies, but the future is unpredictable, Of course, going through these health challenges bring physical and emotional concerns – but also financial ones. How can you p...

  • CARES Act: Prelude to a $15 Minimum Wage?

    Thomas L Knapp|Jul 29, 2020

    Included in the March 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act were three programs with less euphonious acronyms: FPUC, PEUC, and PUA. These programs extended (by 13 weeks), expanded (to self-employed workers), and added a $600 per week federal kicker to, state-level unemployment benefits. As July comes to a close, more than 25 million Americans are about to lose that federal kicker. The usual setup for the usual partisan fight over whether generous government benefits help the congenitally hard-working American people th...

  • Seattle Business Owners Feel Abandoned by the City They Once Loved

    Jul 29, 2020

    By James Varney - The Washington Times Bill Donner of Seattle makes labels for a living, so he doesn’t toss them out lightly. He takes it to heart when he brands city leaders MIA when protesters took over his neighborhood. He says he knows dereliction of duty when he sees it, and he has joined a lawsuit to hold Seattle officials responsible for turning the city into a nightmare. “The mayor and City Council abandoned this neighborhood,” said Mr. Donner, whose custom printing and decals business employs 70 people. “When you have a progres...

    SEEING JESUS I want to continue with last week’s list of ways to see Jesus in the Old Testament. Jesus, in His pre-incarnate form, comes to many humans in the Bible to speak to them. Anytime it says THE Angel of the Lord, that is Jesus. If it says an angel of the Lord and usually gives a name, that is just what it says it is, AN angel sent by God. When Jesus was crucified, He was nailed to the cross at the exact time the morning lamb offering was given at the Temple. And He died at the exact time the evening offering was given (actually a...
