I might’ve been on to something here 😆

Since the Zinke’s Whitefish BnB isn’t designated as their primary residence that means they would have qualified for my rich out of stater’s second home property tax (0.25%) that would have cut taxes for middle class actual Montanans.

Sorry for trying to tax you, Ryan ;) #mtpol
Since you somehow (couldn’t be corruption) grew your wealth from $2 million to $32 million through your “public service” I think you would have survived the marginal bump so that us Montanans could actually afford to stay here. @RyanZinke #mtpol

The DC consultant class apparently wants candidates to stop talking about Roe being overturned. They claim voters only care about “pocketbook” & “kitchen table” issues.

As a progressive Dem that’s knocked a lot of doors in a rural/red state...that cannot be more wrong...

🧵
First off I’ve already won an +11 point Trump district here. We won on our values & policies - not running away from our own shadow.

Our MT constitution has the strongest right to privacy in the nation - and that includes the right to an abortion.
Protection from an overreaching government that wants to control your body - your lives - *that is a Montana value*

More than half of this western MT district supports access to an abortion. Don’t let the extremists fool you.

Excited to speak to some Missoula voters at tonight’s forum! #mtpol

You can check it out on MCAT here: mcat.org/watch/local-li… Image
Also, this new Missoula Public Library still amazes me. We are all so lucky for this public space.
My parents’ activism on behalf of our community to ensure that everyone had a right to an abortion colored my path to public service. I will pick up that fight in Congress for Montana.

Been hearing a lot about ‘energy independence’ from Republicans since Putin invaded Ukraine.

Who was it that built the energy infrastructure in Russia and gave Putin the money for his war? The same corrupt companies the GOP wants to continue to prop up w/ our taxpayer money. 🧵
President Zelenskyy is 44. His Servant of the People Party's leader is 46. Many of Ukraine's new politicians are in their 30's and 40's.

They were first called into service of their country to root out the corruption plaguing their government & blocking all progress for the ppl.
Paul Manafort - Trump's campaign manager - was Putin's useful idiot that 'consulted' w/ his Ukrainian puppet president Yanukovych for years.

Manafort convinced the Ukrainian puppet government to open up oil & gas exploration for Chevron & Exxon.

A really great piece by @StanGreenberg.

“Democrats still have the opportunity to become the one best hope of America’s working families.”

We have to speak out against the status quo of economic inequality & commonplace corruption that’s harming workers.

Our party’s message must call out the corporate & elitist control of government. We have to be the party of the people. Image
The rich have to pay their fair share.

We must invest in essential policies like paid family leave, universal childcare & pre-k, affordable housing, and a living wage. Image

Stopped by the place that full-time Californian Ryan Zinke is claiming as his residence so he can run for Congress in Montana...and it’s a hotel.

The king of the grift & most corrupt politician of my lifetime #mtpol #mtnews #mt01
How in the world does someone enter politics with $2 million net worth and leave it with $36 million?

Corruption of course. Zinke made almost $1 million alone this year in consulting fees to the oil, gas, and mining industries.
Hope you’re enjoying your tan over there in Santa Barbara, Ryan!

Us full-time Montanans really appreciate out of state millionaires trying to divide our communities and buy our political offices :) #mtpol

Wild thing happening in Montana:

MT GOP is refusing to allow retention bonuses to be sent to Montana nurses and instead only wants them sent to out of state recruits.

Why? A blatant attempt to harm union workers & pay to bus in new voters who are anti-vax & anti-mask.
MT GOP policies have been consistently harming Montana’s frontline healthcare workers.

From prohibiting hospitals from enacting vaccine requirements to preventing communities to enforce mask usage to using the highway patrol to intimidate hospital’s medical decisions...
The goal has been clear: divide our communities and turn them against public health workers - all for a zealot political ideology.

This has led to massive amounts of healthcare staff exodus from the profession and the state.
