🧵UPDATE on MONTANA CLIMATE CASE - NEW LAST MINUTE FILING
Yesterday, @MTAGKnudsen & assistants filed a "writ of supervisory control" - last-minute plea to the MT Supreme Court to stop the case from proceeding in district court (this is their 8th attempt to stop the case)
Yesterday, @MTAGKnudsen & assistants filed a "writ of supervisory control" - last-minute plea to the MT Supreme Court to stop the case from proceeding in district court (this is their 8th attempt to stop the case)
My Sidenote: This is same AG who inserted himself to dismiss charges against a guy who pulled a gun on people in Helena restaurant - same AG who played doctor by pressuring health care professionals who refused to prescribe ivermectin to covid patients (the list keeps going...) 
@MTAGKnudsen argues because people are paying attention - it should be dismissed because there "are no relevant facts to find" (again- this is from the same guy who happily played doctor in favor of ivermectin)
The state very clearly lays out the facts to find in this list as stated by District Court Judge Seeley - these certainly seem like pretty substantive questions:
Judge Seeley put it pretty clear when she heard the Kid's case - but Knudsen really does not like this (and FYI - MEPA = Montana Environmental Policy Act & GHC = Greenhouse gases):
They again note @GovGianforte & his GOP Supermajority tried to kill case by late-night tricks - then prohibiting even consideration of GHG (it's like a "hey look....we changed the rules 3 seconds before the game starts - sorry gotta cancel - also, yes, we made the rules worse":
Lastly, they argue that they just realized they had a bunch of homework. "Hey Teacher - this is gonna be hard - please postpone!!!"
