Near-record diesel prices are putting pressure on Montana farmers who depend on fuel to run combines, tractors and other equipment, and also increasing the cost of transporting goods once they leave the farm.

Farmers can’t stop buying diesel — and usually can’t pass the added costs along.

Paxton is objectively correct. The line on this chart represents the day of Trump’s midterm convention. It was clearly an inflection point that backfired badly on Republicans.
Silver Bulletin chart titled “Are Democrats or Republicans winning the race for Congress?” showing the polling average for the 2026 generic congressional ballot from early 2025 through September 2026. The line begins with a Republican advantage in early 2025, crosses into Democratic territory around spring 2025, and generally rises through 2026, ending at a Democratic advantage of 8.9%. A vertical annotation near the far right marks the Republican Midterm Convention in September 2026. After this line, the Democratic advantage surges.

NEW: Republicans went ballistic when New Jersey admitted to an error that allowed fewer than 400 noncitizens to vote since 2023. But when 72,000 mail ballots were rejected across six states in the 2026 primaries over technical issues, the GOP remained silent. Democracy Docket breaks down the data👇

A few noncitizen votes are a scandal. But thousands of rejected ballots are business as usual

The trades are skilled positions with apprentice/journeyman/master trajectories. You can't just get a plumbing certificate. OTOH, in Germany they do assess a child's interests and aid them on that career path to excel in those fields if that's what the person chooses. Could use a good carpenter tho.
