On paper at least, Montana's newly drawn Eastern U.S. House district is Matt Rosendale's to lose. The incumbent U.S. congressman, elected to represent the whole state by a 12-point margin in 2020, had his re-election bid endorsed by former President Donald Trump in November and by the Montana Republican Party in February, four weeks before the deadline for candidates to file for the June 7 primary.

How great that remaining dear ones have a ‘time’ together, sharing special deeds and thoughts of those who’ve passed on. At one ‘gathering’, friends and family shared about their special ‘Ms. B.’; what she’d meant to them, all she’d shared, quilts she’d made for family, friends and even several she’d sent to an orphanage. On and on they chatted when suddenly there was a pa...

I remember well the first time I ran for my County Superintendent of Schools position...
