This list of Trump’s political appointees are all in jail or awaiting trial. They read like a law firm: Bannon, Cohen, Flynn, Manafort and Stone. Our president handpicked these guys and they have disgraced our nation. They have used their political clout to increase their personal wealth and undermine our institutions. What did they do […]

Having represented Bozeman for four terms in Montana’s Legislature, I know what it takes to serve and be effective. That’s why I support Ed Stafman to represent us in House District 62 (south central Bozeman). I’ve known Ed for a dozen years. I’ve seen him lead moving prayers for the Legislature, inspiring the body to […]

What kind of adjectives describe the public servants we all wish to have working for us every day? Honest, balanced, dedicated, and compassionate come to mind. We need people who will bring us together, not divide us; respect science, not deny it; listen to us, not ignore us; care about all people, not just their […]

We face, we are told, a consequential election. I agree! Except the most consequential race is down ballot, for the Public Service Commission. Tom Woods is your essential vote. If you’re under 30, pay attention: The PSC will make decisions that lock in your climate future – more smoky Septembers like this, or shorter ski […]

Mike Cooney doesn’t put his time into political antics or flashy speeches. Instead, he puts his effort into productivity. In his decades of public service, Cooney has demonstrated that he has what it takes to work with a diverse Legislature in order to pull people together and make things happen. And always he does so […]

The GOP are famous for their “freedom” slogans. They would have you believe that Democrats are actively taking away your rights. Yet, when it comes to women’s “freedom” to choose when to have a family, the tables are drastically turned. When it comes to a family’s decision about when to have children, those rights disappear.

We have all watched musicians tune up their instruments intensely listening as they tune to get the pitch right for their performance. Zach Brown candidate for Gallatin County Commissioner uses his listening skills not to tune […]
