"Russians have made a lot of money in extraction industries like mining, oil, & gas along with the banking connections to funnel illicit money across the globe. (con't) billingsgazette.com/opinion/column…
2/ These are the people Daines will meet with because these are the men who control Russia. These are the men who have journalists killed, dissidents jailed and invade neighboring countries to keep their profits intact."

4/ @SteveDaines has learned how to make-stuff-up-out-of-thin-air from #TwitterfingersInChief (#FabricatorInChief), and showed his contempt for his constituents by posting this baldfaced lie yesterday (corrected tweet😉 follows):
8/ For those not familiar with the Dem candidate for Montana's one Congressional (at-large) seat to replace Greg "punches-reporter-before-election" Gianforte, here's a 7-tweet <thread> on primary election results from last month:
@ALT_uscis@metaquest@SpicyFiles@equalandallied1@rkfatheree@ThomasS4217 2/ Conveniently enough, Congress is "working" to keep the gov't open with "a 'continuing resolution' that would fund federal agencies through Dec. 7. ICE asked Congress to include the $1 billion increase in the continuing resolution." (more...)
@ALT_uscis@metaquest@SpicyFiles@equalandallied1@rkfatheree@ThomasS4217 3/ "... immigration officials said they need the extra money to cover rising costs associated with arrests and deportations. Officials say this year they’ve detained an average of 43,000 immigrants a day, slightly more than Congress authorized in the current budget. (con't)
@ninaandtito@dwinfrey72@Peaceful_411@ThomasS4217@MsMariaT@BenWinslow 3/ "One witness stated that Defendant Jacob Kingston said that if the government moved to arrest and prosecute him, he would flee to Turkey. This witness also heard that Defendant Jacob Kingston built a home in Turkey. (con't)
3/ At this outdoor photo-op, @RepJeffDenham said "Congress is looking at one agency, one decision," and "called the state’s water conservation proposal a 'disastrous plan to flush water from valley rivers to the ocean,' foreshadowing twitterfingers-in-chief Aug 5th tweet.
@lrozen@ThomasS4217 This 7.10.14 article shows *how* tight Sheriff Israel is w/ Roger Stone.
<thread> 1/ Despite being sentenced to 1 yr in prison in '02, Suereth served 60 days house arrest & 5 yrs probation. Also in '02, Suereth married Thorne (who became Sheriff Israel's AsstChiefOfStaff in '14).
@lrozen@ThomasS4217 2/ In 2002, "Thorne was already working for Stone and Suereth and his son Andrew Miller would soon join the political operative's coterie."
Thorne was officially referred for the BSO job by Israel's campaign strategist, Ron Gunzburger, a close friend and associate of Stone's...
@lrozen@ThomasS4217 3/ … whom Israel installed at BSO as his $205,000-a-year general counsel. Not including Gunzburger, Thorne is one of at least three Stone cohorts whom Israel hired on the public payroll after the election."
