BOMBSHELL: Montana Supreme Court Email Scandal May Lead to Arrests, Impeachments

Montana Daily Gazette ^ | 4/14/21

[Be Careful]

This news story will be the most explosive in decades, and it could turn the tide of Montana state government

Various press outlets have reported, but largely under-reported, a developing scandal regarding the Montana Supreme Court and their refusal to abide by information requests for their email correspondence on publicly-owned servers. But what lies under the surface of the scandal – and what is currently developing – will likely lead to the biggest news story in Montana politics in decades. Ultimately, as this saga continues, the scandal might lead to the impeachment of Supreme Court Justices and the arrest of at least one employee of the court. In the end, Governor Gianforte might be able to appoint new justices to the court, overthrowing the last liberal stronghold in the Montana state government.

Moving to Montana this summer! Great news!

Replace um

[Regulator]

Another episode of Yellowstone?

Dental floss tycoon?

“Did someone say ‘Email Scandal?!!”

Take a breath, Hillary.
We are not talking about you, and all your wiped clean software.

[Jim Pelosi]

I see what you did there. RIP FZ

Montana uses a Judicial Nomination Commission.

Supposedly "neutral" these sort of commissions were designed to insure leftist judges are put on the supreme court.

It removes power from elected officials. That is its purpose.

[Levy78]

That one went over my head

[Labyrinthos]

Yawn.

Once upon a time the legendarily loved-and-hated rocker Frank Zappa wrote a song called “Montana,” in which a person says he is going to move to Montana to grow dental floss.

Eventually less obscure, I hope, than all the FR references to “Thailand?”

“...the scandal might lead to the impeachment of Supreme Court Justices and the arrest of at least one employee of the court..”

There are a whole lot of robes in this country that belong in the brig..or better yet on a scaffold!

[Levy78]

Ahhhhhh thank you. For some reason, could never get into Zappa.

Finally some use can be made of the deluxe accommodations at Gitmo that had been specially prepared for the indictments very nearly carried out 2017-20 (too soon?).

Be still my heart!

For some reason, could never get into Zappa.

Concur; music is supposed to lift one's spirits and soar, like this for example: Somebody Loan Me a Dime

After forty odd years I still get great joy out of listening to Duane Allman Anthology 1 and 2.

I've been saying for a long time around here that we need to impeach judges at a much faster rate than we have. They have no accountability whatsoever. Sit down with the democrats and select one of theirs and one of ours every few months. Start with the Supremes and work your way down. It would be way better than passing other laws. Just impeach judges who don't part their hair the way you like.

At some point you'd get their attention.

Just call stonetear. He knows all about the “bleach bit”

Frank Zappa song.
“ Movin’ to Montana soon
Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon “
