Montana Republican Traitors

Held v Montana (HvM), which ended on June 20, 2023, will go down in history as the trial where Montana’s Republican traitors did more damage to Republicans than any Democrat ever did.

Let’s turn the clock back a year to see how this happened.

On April 14, 2022, Montana Assistant Attorney General Alwyn Lansing emailed a climate physics expert whom I know in eastern USA, asking,

I am reaching out to you to inquire if you would be interested and willing to serve as an expert witness for Montana in this case. If so, could you please send me your CV and a fee schedule?

This scientist returned the email with a copy to me, saying,

Dear Ms Lansing:

The guy you want is Ed Berry, who lives in Big Fork Montana. Ed knows at least as much as I do, and he has written several scientific papers pertaining to the way CO2 behaves in the atmosphere, the biosphere and the Ocean. He recently emerged unscathed from a hassle with global-warming-alarmists who tried to attack him using the Montana state government.

Upon receiving this email, I knew immediately that Montana’s Attorney Austin Knudsen had purposely censored me from helping him defeat HvM, or he would have asked me to help him in 2021.

I sent another email on April 20 and received a brief reply from Emily Jones, AG Knudsen’s contract attorney for HvM, and we scheduled to talk on May 10, 2022, which was her first opportunity to talk. I’m thinking, I hold all the keys to how to defeat HvM and the lawyers won’t even talk to me.

In our phone conversation, the first thing she told me was she was not “authorized to pay me.”

So, the State of Montana under Governor Gianforte had secretly censored and blacklisted me without giving me any notification or opportunity to reply. They would pay other experts, but not me.

Anyway, I offered to help them for a limited time at no cost to the State of Montana. They sent me all their legal stuff and, a week later, I returned my full review of the lawsuit. I showed them the steps they needed to take to win, suggested possible expert witnesses, and presented a plan to organize defense attorneys and experts to defeat HvM.

Another Assistant AG liked my suggestions and asked me for more information. At the end of May 2022, he began signing me up as an expert witness.

On June 1, 2022, I attended the Pachyderm meeting in Kalispell. I mentioned to a person who I thought was my friend that I was helping Knudsen defend HvM. He became uncontrollably angry and left the meeting in a big hurry. When I returned to my office an hour later, I found that Knudsen had terminated my communications with his assistant AG.

I met the face of evil, who secretly forced AG Knudsen to throw the HvM trial.

The trial

On June 12, 2023, just before the trial began, Montana Assistant Attorney General Michael Russell gave away the farm by stipulating,

“for the purposes of trial, there is a scientific consensus that earth is warming as a direct result of human GHG emissions, primarily from the burning of fossil fuels.”

I watched the whole trial. I have never seen anything so despicable in my life. Montana’s AG rolled out the red carpet to make sure the Plaintiffs won HvM.

Montana’s defense did not counter any Plaintiff’ expert’ climate claim and did not present any expert witnesses on true climate science to challenge the Plaintiffs’ experts.

The plaintiffs did not show any evidence that human CO₂ caused their claimed damages. Montana’s Attorney General did not point that out to the court.

The plaintiffs never presented any evidence to support cause and effect, e.g., to show human carbon emissions caused the climate to cause their claimed damages. My expert team with my attorney would have shredded the plaintiffs’ expert witnesses and easily defeated HvM.

Knudsen did not legally, ethically, or morally defend Montana against the Plaintiffs’ claims.

Knudsen betrayed the truth that people need to be free. Knudsen’s was the worst action I have ever seen a lawyer do.

In the famed witch-trials, plaintiffs claimed innocent women caused harmful weather events. But they did not, and could not, show any connection between the women and the weather events. Nevertheless, they burned the innocent women anyway.

In HvM, the plaintiffs claimed human CO₂ caused harmful “climate events.” But they did not, and could not, show any connection between human CO₂ and their climate events. Nevertheless, they convicted human CO₂anyway… but this conviction happened because the defense let it happen.

Human CO₂ was the real defendant in HvM, but no one defended human CO₂.

Censorship is the biggest threat to democracy.

In their debate, vice-president candidates, Vance and Walz, agreed that censorship is the biggest threat to democracy. That we must debate our differences. Persuade but never censor.

Imagine, if you will, a Montana where our Republican leaders were honest, faithful, intelligent, and “good.”

Montana’s Attorney General Knudsen would have not censored me. He would have let me help him defend Held v Montana.

Without question, we would have defeated Held v Montana. Shocked and changed the world. Saved Montana from paying the plaintiffs’ attorneys millions of dollars.

We would have awakened people from their climate delusions. Stopped the evil indoctrination of children in climate fiction, fear, and anxiety. Showed how the scientific method finds truth. Opened minds to the physics truth that nature, not human carbon emissions, controls the climate.

We would have forced governments to discard laws and taxes on carbon emissions. Freed governments to make economic decisions without “green” distortions. Stopped wasting money and engineering talent on senseless carbon capture.

We would have, in time, eliminated America’s annual deficit which today is entirely caused by “green” laws and taxes. Strengthened the US dollar. Helped people buy homes, wheels, and food.

No more counting carbon footprints. No more climate challenges to Donald Trump’s energy plan.

We would have stopped the World Economic Forum, the Deep State, and Bill Gates’ plan to enslave America by 2030 because their plan needs the climate delusion.

Ah, but I must be dreaming.

Montana’s Republican leaders – Sen Daines, Rep Zinke, Gov Gianforte, and their wannabe Senator Sheehy – are “RATS” (Republicans Against Truth) who helped WEF win HvM.

They support AG Knudsen’s despicable deliberate loss of Held v Montana. They accepted their thirty pieces of silver to censor scientific truth and secretly betray the people.

Held v Montana is now in Montana’s Supreme Court. I filed an Amicus Brief on climate truth with many good Montanans as parties. We do not know if the court will hear our brief.

After Judge Seeley rendered her decision on HvM, Senator Daines wrote on X:

Activist judges, even here in MT, are helping far-Left environmentalists push their green hallucination down the throats of Americans. Shutting down energy projects that support an all-of-the-above energy portfolio is setting America on a dangerous path. We must reverse course.

Republican wannabe US Senator Tim Sheehy quickly echoed Daines on X:

The latest example of a liberal activist judge trying to legislate radical Green New Deal disastrous policies from the bench. We must fight back and take a strong stand against the climate cult and their job-killing agenda.

Daines’ and Sheehy’s comments are bullshit! They are outright lies designed to control the people.

Judge Seeley is not an “activist judge.” She made the correct decision based on the evidence presented because AG Knudsen presented no evidence.

Senator Daines wrote his public support for criminal AG Knudsen:

“I’m writing you today on behalf of my good friend, Austin Knudsen. As Montana’s Attorney General, Austin is working to stop Joe Biden’s overreach every single day. Montana has never had a fiercer warrior against big government power grabs than Austin, and that’s why I’m asking you to donate today to support his reelection.”

“And make no mistake, the left wants Austin gone. They’ve got their sites on the Attorney General’s office, propping up a liberal extremist trial lawyer against him.”

The climate myth costs America more than national defense. Rational Republicans would take time to understand this.

Republican voters don’t know what happened with HvM, except those who read my letters. No one else is telling the people the truth.

The World Economic Forum plans to control America by 2030. Their takeover of Montana is almost complete. It will be complete if Republican voters elect Tim Sheehy for Senate and reelect Ryan Zinke for Congress, and Austin Knudsen for AG. If that happens, the party boss will control the fate of Montana. Since he serves WEF, it’s good-bye Montana.

This is how we lose our America. This is how we lose our freedom.

I invited Zinke and Sheehy several times since June 2024 to spend an hour with me, any time, any place in Flathead County to talk about climate. They won’t reply to me. In Montana, that never happens in normal politics.

Tim Sheehy

Tim Sheehy is challenging Democrat Sen. Jon Tester. Tester has done a lot of good things for Montana and has a high seniority in the Senate. Sheehy has never held an elected office.

Sheehy has lots of negatives that are too long to list here. He was discharged from the navy seals with an “involuntary separation.”

He sold bonds by saying he would use the money to buy planes. But instead, he used the money to buy his company’s stock. He does not sound like an honest person.

Ryan Zinke

Zinke is running for reelection and his challenger is Democrat Monica Tranel.

Zinke explained his view of climate change to the press. He saw a glacier melting one day when he was eating his lunch near a glacier in Glacier National Park. He said the melting he saw proves climate change is real, and our carbon emissions are causing it.

Zinke told the press he is a “scientist” to justify his support of the green agenda. He has a BS degree in geology but that does not make him a scientist. Like where’s his PhD thesis?

I have supported Ryan Zinke since 2011. In November 2022, after he had been elected to Congress, he told me he would invite me to talk to Congress about climate. The problem is the party boss overheard Zinke’s invitation. The next time I talked to Zinke at one of his fund raisers, he told me he will no longer talk to me about climate.

After our twelve years of friendship, Zinke stopped talking to me because he now belongs to the party boss.

Zinke won’t tell Donald Trump the truth about climate and will not give Trump a copy of my book, Climate Miracle.

Here’s my letter to the editor that summarizes my position on these votes:

I’ve always voted Republican. But I can’t this time because Tim Sheehy and Rep. Ryan Zinke, Gov. Greg Gianforte, and Attorney General Austin Knudsen are RATS (Republicans Against Truth).

Party boss told Knudsen to lose Held v. Montana. He complied, inflicting more damage on Republicans than any Democrat has ever done. Party boss told RATS to support Knudsen’s loss. They complied.

Party boss told RATS to have the state of Montana attack and censor me because I teach climate truth that would have defeated Held v. Montana. They complied.

Party boss serves the World Economic Forum that needed Montana to lose Held v. Montana so they can make us slaves who will own nothing, eat insects and be happy, by 2030.

Sheehy’s a Trojan horse who can’t remember who he is. Zinke lies to Trump. It’s insanity to give shady Sheehy six years and zombie Zinke two more years to destroy us. This is more important than who controls Congress. I’m voting for former President Donald Trump, Sen. Jon Tester and Monica Tranel. — Ed Berry, Bigfork
