here's today's post: "convicted felon vandalizes White House, because fuck you, that’s why" — how is this even happening?

In the foreground: a middle finger In the background: looking down from West Goat Peak, the tallest peak in the Pintler mountain range of Montana. Warren peak is in the distance and below that Warren lake which appears quite small from this height. There is a slight haze on the horizon but otherwise big blue skies.

Happy middle finger Monday!

Some inflatable dinosaurs and unicorns race in front of the Capitol building in Helena Montana during the No Kings protest.

A painting of Putin playing tRump like a cello (because he’s too wide to be a fiddle) leans against a table at the Helena, MT ‘No Kings’ protest while some bubbles float by.

Helena, Montana #nokings

He’s such a vile and dispassionate individual. You can see him completely tune out the second he hears ‘democrat’ I’m sure he knew her name when he was celebrating with glee with his fellow white-hooded cronies.

Sure makes Vance’s little hush hush meeting at the Murdoch ranch in MT earlier this year even more sus…

Hold the line Montana, and keep the pressure on. I will believe Zinke when I see the vote, this guy is a crook through and through. All this tells me is we’ve got them scared… KEEP IT UP!

Medicaid Cuts in Montana. 53,000 Montanans may get kicked off their health coverage. That's over 25% of Montana Medicaid recipients. Montana could lose over $3 BILLION dollars in the federal spending over the next ten years. Zinke and Downing voted for this.

Our Republican representatives threw us all under the bus (Yeah, we’re looking at you two @Zinke @Downing). Lower-income Montanans and rural hospitals will bear the brunt of these devastating cuts, and our communities will suffer because of it. #mtpol

Thankful he’s alive, but this staged meeting is all sorts of sus

A stadium of over 7500 Montanans cheers on AOC while she drops some truths about the corrupt insider trading of congress on both sides of the aisle. *not pictured are the 1500+ attendees watching from the overflow and Bernie waiting on the sidelines to destroy the oligarchy, our spineless MT representatives and our weak idiotic felon in chief.

Montana showed up to fight the oligarchy with @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov!

If only the DNC doesn’t F her over yet again

Trump Jets Off to Watch Golf as U.S. Economy Goes Up in Flames The stock market is in free fall, but the president is headed to Florida.

The stock market is in free fall, but the president is headed to Florida to attend a golf tournament.

Elon Musk went to Wisconsin where he said the "destiny of humanity" rested on the election. Tonight the voters agreed and rejected his and Trump's undemocratic vision for the country.

Ugh the fact that the 39 dimwits who voted ‘aye’ even thought this was worth wasting time on instead of so many other REAL issues Montanans face- like how so many of us can’t even afford to live here anymore. Thank you for helping sanity prevail.

But seriously though. At this point I am happy when any democrat so much as stands up. Booker has been doing it for 14+ hours straight. That is an achievement worth celebrating in the hopes that more will follow!!

I appreciate that he has been speaking on the actual issues the entire time up there, not just reading Dr. Seuss or rambling incoherently. We asked them to do something and he is- better late than never!

This is how it’s done, folks.
This is the kind of energy we need from ALL democrats on the hill.

Thank you Senator Booker for speaking out for us!

Boycott Contributions to Senate Democrats Until Chuck Schumer Steps Down Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

We need someone with a spine leading our senate democrats. If you agree, sign this petition for @schumer.senate.gov to step down.

Thousands of fired federal workers must be offered reinstatement, a judge rules Thousands of probationary federal employees fired by the Trump administration must be offered job reinstatement within the next week, a district judge in San Francisco has ruled, because they were ter...

JUST IN: Thousands of probationary federal employees fired by the Trump administration must be offered job reinstatement within the next week, a district judge in San Francisco has ruled, because they were terminated unlawfully.

We the people need to continue to show our outrage at this overstep of power by Musk and “DOGE” as this will likely be appealed all the way to the spineless bootlicking Supreme Court. Keep fighting.

These poor federal workers must have the worst whiplash right now. Stand strong!!

Dems are doing what they can with a minority, they all voted against this. It’s the spineless republicans who vote against their constituents interests just to appease their daddy tRump. (Though yes, overall dems can do better too but in the house their hands are pretty tied right now)

Come on #Montana make them #dobetter.

Montana Bill Would Charge Women for 'Trafficking' Their Own Fetus The legislation, House Bill 609, is the first of its kind in the country

This abhorrent proposed #Montana bill is likely testing the waters for nationwide “abortion trafficking” charges. Please spread awareness and outrage. MT already voted to support #abortionrights

Congratulations! This brings me joy as your podcasts are one of the only ways to choke down today’s news in a slightly more tolerable manner.

Whatever it is, it’s not killing him nearly fast enough.

Wow. Good thing Canada has a long history of having to put up with tRump’s small dick energy. Putin’s Whitehouse lap dog sure learned a lot of tricks from Russia. It’s a shame they never thought to teach him not to shit all over the house too.

After mass layoffs, some federal agencies are trying to bring employees back A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.

It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

The impressive Helmcken Falls in Wells Grey Provincial Park flows off a steep pine tree covered cliff face and into a deep canyon, creating its own cloud mist at the base. At 141 meters, it is Canada’s 4th tallest waterfall and is well worth a visit, even if just to listen to its roaring waters echoing off the canyon walls.

Happy #waterfallwednesday! Though I’m still posting falls from the beautiful COUNTRY of 🇨🇦, this is nonetheless a reminder to support our #NationalParks, state #publiclands and #forestservice workers.
