Preparing for a Post Mortem on the 2014 Cycle: Ahontoays Band President Melinda Gopher Issues First Statement

As of this morning, 10:36 a.m., Mountain Standard Time, the poll cited by Real Clear Politics (MSU-Billings) has Zinke winning by a 7% margin.  Sam Wang gives the US Senate seat to Daines, and in a fairly quick reversal, now gives the US Senate to the Republicans.

There are clear problems with the Democratic Party, not all can be squarely put on the shoulders of Barack Obama.  More accurately, the blame for the "off the rails" strategy of the party must be put on his handlers, and those who used to serve in the U.S. Senate that derailed this young president.  I point my fingers squarely at two people in particular:  Native Montanans-- former Sen. Max Baucus, now the U.S. Ambassador to China and his protege, Jim Messina who now works for Conservative Prime Minister of the UK, David Cameron.

As it stands now, both men have conveniently dropped below the radar to minimize scrutiny on themselves.  Baucus in his new gig has gone largely ignored by the American media since leaving his office in the U.S. Senate.

Those of us who have dealt with Baucus in Montana are fairly familiar with his tactics, mainly on how skillfully and lacking in moral turpitude, he used the Native American voters to maintain an iron grip on the state Democratic party political machine for the base numbers and 2) used his Wall Street ties to fund his Senate campaigns.  Baucus was Citizens United before there was a law for what he did.

MEDIA CULPABILITY

Baucus is also very skilled at his official political narrative using his buddies in the state media to kill dissent.  Even when that dissent was needed, and we all know dissent is healthy and essential to a healthy democracy. Buddies such as the Great Falls Tribune editors, publishers, men like Jim Strauss, and former city editor Tom Kotinski,  aided and abetted this man's abuse of public office.

I point to current Tribune political reporter John Adams as aiding and abetting the cover up of the Jonathan Windy Boy scandal.  This scandal makes the John Walsh plagiarism scandal look like a Boy Scout badge dispute in its irrelevance to the broader scandal that ensnares Baucus, Messina, possibly our current governor, and some Chippewa Cree tribal law enforcement.  Adams has known about the accusations surrounding Windy Boy for years, but has hidden rather conveniently behind the fear of a libel lawsuit to protect Montana's political elite.  This is not a journalist, and to deny all Montanans of the facts, knowing this man is a danger to children and women, is inexcusable.

at the State Capitol, 12/12
If only we can get a criminal investigation going.  That has not happened since 2002 when the alleged crimes occurred; the powers that be in Washington DC have denied Windy Boy's victims access to the legal system and have stymied, put down and frustrated law enforcement investigation of one of Obama's tribal of chairman's circle of campaign supporters in 2008.

Lets say that Jonathan Windy Boy showing his cock and balls to 15 year old girls over Yahoo chat does not help anyone's political careers.  This is the truth; and it is indisputable.  There are pictures of this. Pictures that "powers that be in DC"as the victims describe them as shadowy and unknowable--do not want to be disbursed in instantaneous world of the  "youtubes" and "internets." And, there is more.  A lot more.

WALSH SACRIFICIAL GOAT

I would charge here that John Walsh is the sacrificial goat in this phony plagiarism scandal; an attempt to cut the gangrene to save a damaged stump that requires an amputation.  The diseased part of the party are Senators Baucus, his former Chief of Staff Jim Foley, and possibly Jim Messina, known as the "fixer" in the White House.

FOLEY'S UM RAPE MALFEASANCE REQUIRES DUE DILIGENCE OF THE LAW

An investigation is needed.  I am told by victims there were two federal level investigations that were shut down when prosecution of Windy Boy seemed likely.  Added to his tax evasion problems that the Obama administration has done nothing about;  it seems like the preoccupation of the party elite with Windy Boy has been a gigantic distraction and a continual headache for very key people. Windy Boy must be taken into custody, and the 2011 investigation reopened.  I am calling for an expansion of the UM probe to cover the period of 2002 --2011 when the victims were attempting to prosecute Windy Boy.  Foley left Baucus's office in 2005.  This should be scrutinized.

A STATE AND NATIONAL PARTY PURGE IS NEEDED

Going forward, there should be no place for Baucus and Messina in the state party or any part of the Democratic party, and if this happens, do it at your own risk.  Any component of any political party will feel the wrath of public scorn  and risk the loss of all credibility by associating with these men.  Where is the moral conscience of party leaders? For our part, I am a Chippewa descendant of the original Rocky Boy Band of Chippewa Indians.  Our people approached Baucus in 2000 to address the historic wrongs of the mismanagement of the Rocky Boy tribal roll.

You see, the federal government is not allowed to enforce enrollment laws upon a tribe; this is expressly forbidden by time honored U.S. Supreme Court precedent (Worchester v. Georgia).  In spite of this bedrock of law, the Dept. of Interior enforced an illegal roll in Rocky Boy and renamed the tribe "the Chippewa Cree Tribe of the Rocky Boy Indian Reservation."  This was an act of genocide by the government.

Crees are not a US treaty tribe, therefore should not be treated as a federally recognized tribe. Baucus knows this, he is afterall an attorney.  Still yet, under his and Sen. Tester's watch; the Cree led govenment, led by Windy Boy, his brother Alvin, Jake Parker, Chance Houle, etc. etc. have mismanaged millions in Pembina Chippewa money, they have denied rightful Chippewa enrollment that is not their decision to make; and they have mismanaged Pembina litigation.

Out of sheer frustration, in May of this past year, we asked Rep. Daines to open a Congressional level criminal investigation.  We are contending the Democratic party in the state are afoul of the federal Voting Rights Act by enabling Cree to practice discrimination upon the reservation.  The Chip Cree Business Committee is predominant Cree run, it would not even meet the requirement that 50% of a tribal body be of a historic American tribe; a requirement imposed upon the Little Shell Chippewa tribe for instance.  The Little Shell ARE descendants of a historic American tribe.

The Chippewa Cree business committee is organized under the Interior Dept., an agency subject to the federal Act.  I would go so far as to say the Democrats maintain the Cree on the roll just to keep illegal tribal members voting for them, as I have said, Baucus has been the main benefactor of this arrangement.

Something is very wrong in Montana.  We have to face up to the wrongs here, and have the attention of the federal officials to correct the wrongs.  As it is, the Democrats have mismanaged these issues led down a rabbit hole by Windy Boy; and are now paying a heavy price.

The Chippewa people are intent on reclaiming tribal sovereignty long denied this underclass.  When we attempted to participate in the party we were greeted with a Dixiecrat mentality and a state party that adheres to Jim Crowe.  We are going backward.

Now there is John Lewis, who is expecting to benefit from his years as a Baucus staffer.  He had to know of the entire situation with Windy Boy.  He is definitely aware of the situation in Rocky Boy, the lies, deceit, broken laws and mind-boggling theft and fraud of Chippewa resources.  He has to know, there is no way he cannot know.  I am sorry, I cannot vote for people who have too much to hide.
