41 counts of very serious misconduct just dropped on @MTAGKnudsen by Montana commissioner of political practice. It’s very serious stuff. Good people of Montana… these angry incompetent radicals are wrecking our state. It’s dangerous and it’s time to boot these people out.

Governor Gianforte and the @MTGOP just kicked elderly veterans to the curb. Quietly defunded the SW Montana Veterans’ Home, probably hoping the public wont notice. A cowardly move. The final vote:

The “drag show ban” the Montana legislature just passed is (like many of their bills) almost completely unintelligible, but appears that it might potentially classify pro wrestling as “drag” & therefore ban performances in places like high school gyms. Nobody knows for sure!
