Two years before Lindsey Clancy murdered her three children I got a lesson in feminine accountability from my ex-wife, who successfully flipped getting caught violating our parenting plan into somehow casting herself as the victim because she was worried about my reaction when I found out my daughter had already been introduced to a new boyfriend before I even knew this person existed.
Here’s the language of our parenting plan stipulating how introductions to new romantic partners SHOULD be conducted:
And here’s the text I got after my mother let it slip that my kids were being introduced to a romantic partner behind my back:
Amending the parenting plan would have taken money, which I don’t have, so when other violations have happened–like not honoring the date I should be informed about summer vacations–I just have to accept it.
Actually, it should probably be amended to something like Mother shall have priority to do WHATEVER SHE WANTS TO DO, because that’s my current reality for the foreseeable future.
My ex-wife still has a good relationship with my Father, who recently confirmed he wouldn’t allow me to see my own daughter because of how openly and honestly I’ve communicated my hatred of him. Since my father’s house is the place where I get to see my kids (who I have uncontested, 50/50 custody of), his control and recent mocking of my limitations haven’t improved how much I resent this man.
Daddy is correct, I don’t have a car or the gas money to drive to Seattle to pick up my own son from his trip to Japan. I don’t even have the ability to leave the state of Montana without permission. And because my limitations have made retirement a drag for Daddy, I was told, at one of my lowest moments, that Daddy is putting his house on the market and fleeing town.
Here’s his reasoning:
I’m putting this dirty laundry out for others to see because I know my family is not the only one being destroyed by the larger forces we won’t collectively rise up against.
Before 2020 I had come to terms with my why my father was emotionally retarded and financially controlling, but the “pandemic” changed all that. I stood up against IMMENSE PRESSURE, not just for me but FOR MY KIDS, who Daddy thought should get jabbed to keep him safe. Any consideration I had for this man was obliterated after that and it never returned.
Amidst this pressure to jab my kids my ex-wife’s resolve faltered because she wanted to keep riding around in airplanes like the privileged brat she turned out to be. Thankfully THE MAN in the house stood strong, and my kids are healthier because of it.
When I asked to simply be a part of the conversation with my own kids about Grandpa fleeing with Grandma to another city, I found out those conversations were already happening, again, behind my back, just like finding out yesterday my ex-wife is house shopping.
It must be nice to NOT have to adhere to any legally-binding documents when you know the father is a broke loser despised by anyone who matters in this stupid fucking town.
In America your rights begin as an extension of your bank account, and they expand on the cultural currency of victimhood, which brings me to my final point: Patrick Clancy’s lawyers should aggressively litigate EVERY WOMAN who implied he’s somehow responsible for the killing of his three children. Every. Single. One.
If that doesn’t happen, the American family is cooked.
I hope my own family can find the peace they are looking for, wherever they think that may be, but I learned something critical in 2020 that I won’t soon forget, and that’s how much those larger forces–the powers and principalities a supposed Christian man, like my Father, should be more discerning of–HATE HUMANITY, and what better way to destroy us than making the already difficult task of men relating to women, and vice-versa, totally impossible.

I’ve been waiting for the right moment to write about the proposal to create a 57th County in Western Montana and I think that moment has finally come for reasons I’ll get into after this quote explaining the most obvious reason Seeley-Swan residents are considering a form of secession: taxes.
When I saw reports that a group of residents in the Seeley-Swan area is exploring the possibility of splitting from Missoula County, I was intrigued. The concept of creating a new county seems like a relic of the past, and indeed, Montana’s 56th county, Petroleum, was created in 1925.
This discussion among rural Missoula County residents isn’t new, but it’s gained momentum recently, with a new, growing Facebook group and a feasibility study digging into the details. This week, I called Swan Valley Community Council member and Condon resident Ted Morgan (on his landline) to talk about the study and why some residents are looking to break away from Missoula County.
“We just see a lot of tax dollars going to county initiatives closer to urban areas,” he said Wednesday. “We see our tax dollars going up every year, and there’s not a marked effect on rural people.”
Ted Morgan and his fellow Missoula County residents studying the feasibility of this move don’t like seeing their tax dollars going up, but they DO seem to appreciate the increasing tax base from second homes. In fact, according to Ted, it’s the luxury development that’s making the feasibility of secession seem, well, more feasible:
Morgan said the area has seen an increase in taxable values since 2020 and includes “massive” second homes and resorts. That increase makes the new county a more realistic proposition, he said.
“Our tax base, while small, is definitely enough to run its own government,” Morgan said.
According to the feasibility study, the 6,435 parcels located in the proposed new county have an assessed taxable value of $31.13 million. That’s higher than Mineral and Powell counties, the report said.
Operating a “lean governance model,” the new county could reduce the county-level property tax burden for residents while maintaining full service levels, according to the report. The proposal calls for a county government with 18 to 20 employees working in administration, public works, law enforcement and other positions. Morgan said the county would not build its own jail, but would contract with another county to use its facility.
One of the taxing schemes that I suspect is inspiring our northern neighbors in Seeley to consider leaving Missoula County to create a whole new County is the use of Tax Increment Financing through Targeted Economic Development Districts.
But don’t tell that to Cascade County.
Starting with the taxing jurisdiction of Great Falls, where Janicki Industries is making a massive investment, I discovered how the use of a bond will potentially extend the life of the taxing district just like in Missoula, where the Missoula Redevelopment Agency used the pedestrian bridge over Reserve Street to extend the life of THAT taxing district.
And I discovered this move because of how annoyed this X post made me:
A truth-seeking, pot-stirring, caller of bullshit should probably be less indignant when dealing with the public’s frustration over doling out financially short-sighted subsidies and repeating the stupid policies of Missoula by making sure those special taxing districts never die.
To see how this conversation is shaping up in a different western Montana location other than Missoula, here’s two screenshots from minutes taken from a May 19th, 2026 meeting in Great Falls (GFDA stands for Great Falls Development Authority):
While this conversation is happening, a different part of Cascade County is so unimpressed with Sheriff Slaughter’s Cascade County Sheriff’s Office services that they are considering starting a police force of their own. Hmmm.
The Town of Cascade is considering creating its own municipal police department, with residents and town leaders discussing the proposal during a public meeting Thursday night.
A proposed ordinance would establish the Cascade Police Department, outline its leadership and set requirements for officers. Under the proposal, the department would be led by a chief of police, with additional officers hired as authorized and funded through the town’s municipal budget.
Supporters of the proposal said they liked the idea of having local law enforcement and giving the town greater control over hiring, department operations and its budget.
Opponents, however, raised concerns about whether the town has accounted for all of the costs associated with operating an independent police department.
Why would a little township like Cascade want “greater control” over their lawmen? Sadly, we can’t expect local media to give us the full story about incompetent and/or corrupt law enforcement, so instead we have to rely on content creators like those involved with the “Peaceful Sea Network” to highlight how dangerously unaware of Constitutional protections the Cascade County Sheriff’s Office appears to be.
Here’s the first episode of the new season of “The Cascade Effect” showing what you can expect once you’re targeted by these types of “law enforcers”.
If you don’t see the connection between tax subsidies, first responder budgets, and the overall quality of life issues that arise when your local cops and Sheriff deputies don’t understand the basic protections of the CONSTITUTION, let’s return to Missoula, where the Downtown Business Partnership ensures they have a more consistent police presence downtown by literally funding cop salaries:
While the Missoula Downtown Partnership has reduced paying for this protection racket for downtown businesses–businesses that are ALREADY paying taxes for cops–the fact that “dedicated policing” requires additional expenditures should be getting more context from local media, and that context should include the economic suck of Urban Renewal Districts. Too bad STATE tax changes are getting all of the attention right now for being a total dumpster fire of confusion regarding the legislative changes ostensibly trying to shift some of the fiscal weight of the property tax burden to owners of second homes.
“The biggest change for most people are going to be whether they got their property enrolled as their homestead principal residence or a long-term rental or they didn’t,” Kaatz said. “If they did, they obviously get the benefit of those tiered tax rates.”
In cities like Missoula, the changes mean properties classified as second homes or short-term rentals will see property taxes more than double, while the owner-occupied home will see a slight reduction, the Missoulian reported.
About 42,000 residential properties in the state secured the long-term rental status, according to DOR data, but Kaatz said census data estimated there are approximately 55,000 long-term rentals in the state.
That means about 20% of the state’s long-term rentals could see a higher tax rate. Often, those higher costs get passed on to the renter of the home.
“We could effectively tell the taxpayer their taxes would be doubling in amount from 2025 to 2026,” State Sen. Greg Hertz, R-Polson, said at the meeting.
Hertz and other state legislators sued the state over the new law, arguing its creation in the 2025 was unconstitutional. No decision has been made in the case.
The pot-stirring shit-talker tried assuring me on X that no one in Great Falls wants to become Missoula, and I’m sure Rick Tryon believes what he says. But was he ever in attendance at the 2023 Legislature to see Great Falls TIF addicts coming to rescue Ellen Buchanan from the remnants of the Missoula Tax Insurrection?
Whether one is looking at city policies, county policies, or the crafting of state law, Montana appears to be a complete and total shit show incapable of following the simplest of open meeting laws, or even respecting the critical legal protections enshrined by the Constitution, which is how this country was built in the first place.
And to highlight the shit show of local media, last evening I tried giving a drunk reporter a tip, but learned instead you don’t interrupt Missoulian staffers talking about “post-journalism” when they’re at a boozy work meeting with their new editor, Cory Walsh, so I went to compose something trollish on X and got a surprise visit with an informant, which I recorded.
Maybe now I have something more concrete about the death of Sean Stevenson and the coverup by law enforcement to stop me from finding out why he had to die in a private hospital room at St. Pats on January 5th, 2020.
When I first heard about the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” my initial reaction was to ignore it. Then a data point emerged that connected what is happening in Missoula to the California legislation trying to do this:
Starting next year, Californians who provide legal aid, counseling or other types of assistance to immigrants will be eligible for a privacy program that keeps their addresses confidential and out of public records.
Gov. Gavin Newsom approved this latest expansion of California’s Safe at Home program amid concern among Democratic legislators of a rise in reported harassment and threats against immigrants and immigration advocates.
Ok, so the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” is about creating a new “privacy program” to shield anyone who helps immigrants in California from scrutiny. Would this program also ensure privacy for immigrant helpers who live in California but help immigrants in other places, like Missoula?
Here’s the data point that suddenly had me thinking differently about this stupid California legislative move:
Yes, the funding of Soft Landing in Missoula by Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation is something I would definitely be interested in researching more. If I had the money (like Nick Shirley obviously does) I would even consider taking a trip to California to try and talk to someone about it. But that might become illegal if the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” is passed.
One of the claims about Archewell that critics say lacks merit is the claim that Harry and Meghan were using Archewell to get USAID money. Here’s an article pushing back on that claim:
Picture this: you’re scrolling X, and a post screams that Prince Harry swiped $13 million from American taxpayers via USAID. It’s juicy, it’s outrageous, and it’s got just enough edge to make you pause. But here’s the kicker — it’s not true. Or at least, not in the way the outrage merchants want you to think. Over the past year, this claim has popped up like a bad penny, fueled by a mix of royal resentment and misinformation. So, let’s cut through the noise and figure out what’s really going on.
The story starts with Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation, their post-royal venture to do good in the world. Archewell’s been busy — teaming up with groups like World Central Kitchen to feed disaster-struck communities and pushing mental health initiatives. Noble stuff, right? But somewhere along the line, critics started whispering that Archewell was a front for funneling taxpayer cash into the Sussexes’ pockets. The number $13 million got slapped on, tied to USAID, the U.S. agency that funds global aid projects. Suddenly, it’s a full-blown scandal — at least in certain corners of the internet.
Here’s the reality check: USAID doesn’t write checks to Archewell. It funds organizations tackling poverty, health crises, and disasters worldwide — think NGOs in Haiti or Ethiopia, not Montecito mansions. No credible outlet, from Reuters to The Washington Post, has found evidence of $13 million flowing to Harry or Meghan. The claim seems to have sprouted from a misreading of Archewell’s partnerships with charities that might, in some cases, receive USAID grants. But that’s like saying your local food bank is “fleecing” taxpayers because it gets government support. It’s a leap.
Parsing out the money trail for a Royal couple who recently fled the states with their figurative (or maybe reptilian) tails between their legs doesn’t interest me. Instead I’m wondering…why Missoula? Is there some kind of social connection to our humble little mountain town?
Perhaps the social connections of Shuana Nep, who tops the list on the 990 forms, could be of interest.
Besides Archewell, Nep is also involved in a handful of other high-profile ventures, including one with Taylor Swift’s arch nemesis Scooter Braun. She is the vice-president of philanthropy at Braun’s SB Projects, described as the “diversified entertainment and media company behind pop culture icons such as Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, J Balvin and Ashley Graham”.
Her LinkedIn bio notes that she “works closely with each client to develop social impact initiatives tailored to reflect the passions, causes and communities most important to them”.
This wasn’t enough to satisfy my hunch, so I went back to the 990s, clicking the most recent filing for the Archewell Foundation. The first thing that got my attention was a financial recipient located in the Kansas City suburbs where I went to high school. The second thing I found was an Epstein-connected woman working for an organization just few lines down.
Hopelab Foundation? What’s that, I wondered.
It didn’t take me long to find out.
For those unfamiliar with the highlighted surname, think PayPal mafia, and as you’re thinking PayPal mafia you can add that seemingly important Paws Up Founders Fund gathering which happened last June, north of Missoula.
When I put the name “Pam Omidyar” in the Epstein DOJ search engine, the following email most certainly got my attention, as it should anyone living in a billionaire’s vast Big Sky playground.
Seeing Elon Musk’s name and knowing he was at the Paws Up Founders Fund event last June, and seeing Nick Pritzker’s name and knowing he has that Buddhist family member living in the same region of Montana as Paws Up Ranch, is enough connective tissue for me to understand why Soft Landing would get a chance to suckle some charity from Harry and Meghan as they attempted, and failed, to get a foothold in this blown charity racket.
Maybe now Harry and Meghan they can pivot to working with former English immigrants returning home from abroad after they’re no longer welcome to grift inside MAGA-ville.
Returning to the poorly labeled “Stop Nick Shirley Act”, there absolutely IS, in my opinion, something worrisome about selectively qualifying a group of people for enhanced privacy. Also, the word “program” leads me to believe public resources are going to be used in some way in order to do said qualifying, which in California is never a good idea if you’re a regular tax payer.
The Epstein class, however, are NOT regular tax payers, so to conclude today’s post I’d like to link to a well-researched article by Johnny Vedmore, a truly independent researcher who has done some of the best work on John Brockman’s “Edge Foundation”. Here’s an excerpt:
The Edge Foundation was not simply a forum for elite scientists to discuss what interested them most; a clear agenda was at play. The Masterclasses and Seminars tackled three main subjects: how to alter or affect human cells and genes; how to predict the future social order; and how to change people’s decision-making and behaviour. If you were to question any of the Large Language Models about Edge’s major events, they’ll currently tell you that everything was innocent and professional. They are also very quick to belittle and dismiss the uncomfortable fact that much of Edge’s activities were funded by Jeffrey Epstein.
For those still stuck in the two-party political con, where Elon Musk saved Twitter and Trump is still fighting the deep state by playing 5-D chess, Vedmore’s connection of Musk to Edge, and therefore to Jeffrey Epstein, has ensured his relative obscurity and increased personal risk because that’s what happens when you seek the actual truth about who runs the world and what they’re planning for the useless eaters threatening their Transhumanist future by merely existing.

Unlike John Roy Simpers, who was charged with assault and told to meet his public defender at the library by the judge in his case earlier this month, I showed up to court last Wednesday.
Where was Mr. Simpers? And why are we, as a community, so willingly turning our trillion dollar library into an insane asylum?
I’m not writing this post because John Simpers did what I expected him to do by NOT showing up for his hearing. I’m writing this post because John Simpers is just one of MANY unwell people shuffling through the revolving doors between Court Cuckoo and our public library.
To help make my argument, here’s an email I just got from someone I wrote about asking me to remove this three year old post:
After looking closely at my post and the Missoulian article that I was reacting to, in which the man named above was NOT named, I determined that more context was needed before I responded to his request. That’s when I found a court document, written by Municipal judge, Eli Parker, explaining why he tried punting this to District Court, a legal move that ultimately blew up the viability of the criminal charge.
Here are some highlights from Judge Parker describing the original incident, which occurred in the library, where the defendant was allegedly in possession of several knives:
In my original post from three years ago I was criticized in the comments for focusing on the Municipal judge by retired lawyer, Kevin Hunt, who defended the inexperienced judge’s punt with this:
Judge Parker was trying to protect both the suspect and the public. It isn’t constitutional to keep a person waiting for an aid & assist evualuation longer than the maximum sentence for the charged offense; nor is it constitutional to incarcerate mentally ill persons without treating them. It also is absurd that the municipal court would have exclusive jurisdiction over misdemeanor offenses allegedly committed within the city, rather than the muni and district courts having overlapping concurrent misdemeanor jurisdiction. If you want to find a scapegoat, how about the cop (whom I agree deserves credit for using non-lethal tactics!) for citing the guy for a misdemeanor instead of a felony? Oh, wait, there is this other absurdity in the system here by which the guy wouldn’t be charged by Pabst’s office, held, and arraigned on an Information of Felony pending grand jury indictment, but instead released pending grand jury action. It’s a goofy process and it demands remedial legislation. Don’t forget that the state hospital is a joke, is underfunded, and cannot evaluate criminal defendants in a constitutionally reasonable period of time.
The turd does not belong in Judge Parker’s pocket but rather in the legislature’s, which rejected Gov. Gianforte’s request for funding of dozens more public defenders, instead approving only two.
Too many crazy people and not enough publicly-funded lawyers to defend them? Is that the problem?
If anyone spends any time sitting in court, like I did for 2 hours last Wednesday waiting for my case to be called, the problem becomes obvious: the multi-jurisdictional criminal justice system is totally dysfunctional, and it’s being fed by poorly vetted civil processes compounding general societal problems, like drug and alcohol abuse.
Near the end of my 2 hour wait a young women who had previously had her moment in front of the judge came back into court with black smears of mascara running down her cheeks. She had just learned the harsh fact that the restraining order someone had taken out against her didn’t stop that person (known as the petitioner) from contacting her, either directly or through third party contacts, to harass her, and if she responded to those contacts in any way, then she would be in violation and criminally charged.
Just wait until she learns that petitioner’s can go so far as to make FALSE REPORTS in an attempt to destroy your life as effectively as possible and they will face ZERO consequences from city and county prosecutors, regardless of how much time and energy is being taken away from REAL crimes to vet claims that go un-prosecuted.
For those involved in lying about my conduct over the past 3 years, one of their collective successes are the 4 exclusion zones I am forbidden to enter, which includes the public library. That means I can no longer accompany my daughter into this dangerous asylum where I’ve found and documented drugs in the bathroom, along with delving into meeting notes in my most recent post in order to better understand the kind of people this “progressive” community is catering to, and who my daughter will be in weekly proximity to as she feeds her voracious appetite for reading.
One of the biggest ironies about the case against me is how my time spent homeless myself, living in my box truck, has been used against me. I guess going through a divorce and becoming financially destitute after blowing the divorce money by traveling FAR AWAY from the people intent on making good on their threats isn’t something worthy of consideration of city and county prosecutors.
How did I get the vibe wrong? Was it the Lego Meth Lab? Or maybe it was how eager I was to turn the trashing of my own life into a creative metaphor of narrative alchemy, where I advocated for a tweaker-clean-team to keep the streets and parks clean.
Coming up this week I’ll be writing about the Stop Nick Shirley Act with a unique tie-in to Montana, the spread of the TIF sickness to Great Falls, and other stuff that emerges as the week progresses, like an AI Summit I can’t physically attend to report on because it’s on campus.

There I was, trying to mind my own business and NOT really thinking about how gay I might be when I spotted a drunk man in his underwear losing a fight with a wooden support pole.
For a better shot of the damage to the wooden support pole, here’s a pic I took from another angle:
Considering the clip I’m about to share it’s important to know that recording the drunk man where he passed out in the tunnel was NOT my first choice, but a defense against his indignant reaction after I returned his phone.
The conversation picks up as the question of how gay I might begins, which started pretty quickly after he determined I wasn’t a cop.
I know it’s not politically correct to use “gay” in any kind of pejorative way, but when I started getting on my high-horse about working at the homeless shelter, yeah, I’m a Gen X-er who remembers how often we’d say THAT’S GAY, like calling out a dude (me) for filming a drunk man in grey underwear on a Friday afternoon as a family biked by.
On a different, but somewhat related note, the drunk man accused of raping a drunk woman in broad daylight by a popular river spot definitely doesn’t come off as gay, either in the conventional or pejorative sense, but whether or not his sexual intercourse was rape will be a matter for the court.
In the court of public opinion, though, we have a curious claim of two drunk people fucking before one of them passed out.
For a more official report, this is what the Missoulian picked out from the charging documents:
Elwood Gene Hall, 60, appeared before Judge Jason Marks Monday morning in Missoula County District Court on one count of sexual intercourse without consent and one count of tampering with evidence, both felonies.
According to charging documents, on Aug. 6, witnesses called in reports of two people having sex on the north side of the bridge. When Missoula Police Department officers responded, they found Hall with his genitals exposed performing oral sex on an unconscious woman.
Officers detained Hall and closed the bridge for an investigation. Hall at first denied having sexual intercourse with the woman, but then said it was consensual and that she initiated it.
It was with this report in mind that I decided to call 911 after this drunk man made his impairment a community safety issue.
Because, frankly, I’m REALLY getting tired of this shit.
Anyway, if YOU, dear reader, are curious about why I had AI put me in a kinda gay looking outfit inspired by the aesthetic of Twin Peaks, it’s because I finished the rewatch of all three seasons and now know what it’s all about. More on that later.
One positive thing that came from interacting briefly with law enforcement is the opportunity I had to show one of the officers the sign I was carrying. Hopefully with the added tape it’s legal for me to show, since I might have to expand my search for my lost Lego sign, considering who I suspect might be implicated.
If you’d like to donate to my multi-faceted GoFundMe ask, any amount helps. Even though I don’t have exact figures on cost, my impression is hiring PI Guys ain’t cheap.
