A woman by the name of Danielle Egnew just put forth my favorite new conspiracy theory about the inexplicable rise of Alani Bankead and what it might all be pointing to in terms of who the grand manipulator could be, so I’m going to highlight some excerpts before the national media picks this up, which is imminent, apparently.
Let’s begin.
My inbox has been full with people asking me what I think is going to happen in the U.S. Senate race in Montana — which is about two seconds from hitting the national news and becoming the new high-drama scroll-bait. That breaks my heart.
I have some thoughts on the current Montana political race for Senate. I’ve been POURING over the weirdness of this issue. Something about it just wasn’t adding up, given the calculated nature of politics, and the money—and Tester’s experience. NONE of it added up.
Until it did.
And then it really, really did.
Egnew, who was once a candidate herself for Mayor of Billings a decade ago, spends a lot of time laying the foundation for how she’s arrived at her conspiracy theory, including what she hopes to accomplish by sharing her conspiracy theory, and why she hopes her conspiracy theory is wrong. That’s because what she describes is a complicated, 5-D chess maneuver assembled in her mind from a gut feeling that Mr. Flattop is playing the role of Machiavelli, so let’s skip ahead to where we start getting to the good stuff:
At this point, my speculation uncovers that Tester knows there’s no way Bodner wins. Tester’s declared unofficial war on the Dem party so it’s very doubtful they’re going to want to dump their candidate for his. He’s going to be aware of that. So this can’t be about Bodner winning. Tester knows he can’t and won’t. This can’t even be about Tester’s anger or disappointment at the party.
This has to be about watering the vote.
And THAT has to be about something else.
Danielle Egnew is taking us into a political house of mirrors where I had previously bumped around, wondering if Alani Bankhead was somehow a covert op for Kurt Alme and/or angling for a future job under the future Governor, Austin Knudsen. But that was before I found out about Tester’s role with Anthropic, which I had first picked up on scanning Facebook comments before seeing Egnew make it a central part of her conspiracy theory:
With a deep split in the vote, and many Dems feeling like they got “the finger” from Tester —which doesn’t inspire backing “his guy”, so to speak, and that, too, is something he would have considered— the next logical step is that short of a big Hail Mary, we’re going to get Alme, which means we’ll get data centers—and with Tester on the Anthropic National Security and Public Sector Advisory Council, again, my eyebrow is really, REALLY RILLY RILLY raised here.
Yes, not only is Jon Tester assisting Anthropic now, his arrival on the Advisory Council scene (announced last August) puts him at the heart of an industry revolutionizing how we do EVERYTHING, especially war.
That’s why this Axios breakdown is so chilling:
If this new role for Tester includes playing the puppet master in order to split Democrats and ensure Kurt Alme’s victory in November, here’s how Egnew imagines the rationale could have played out in the dirt farmer’s Machiavellian head:
It makes sense Tester received that appointment. He’s a dirt farmer. He knows the vast expanses of eastern and southern central Montana. He knows the barren land, the greatest commodity in data processing besides power. Perhaps he took the appointment because he was watching the inevitable tech wave on the horizon imminently baring down on our open prairies to turn them into humming data factories, and he at least knows the difference between fertile soil, and rocky clay that could hold a foundation. Maybe it gives him no joy, but he can’t stop the inevitable, so better to just park it all on lifeless dirt? Perhaps he knew he couldn’t hold back the avalanche but could at least direct the flow.
Because if I were a speculating person, that’s LITERALLY the only thing that would make actual through-line-sense in this Michael-Crichton-From-Hell novel.
Bodner would be a pawn, the good faith of people believing in Bodner would be the pawn— so many pawns. Neill and Bankhead and Montana voters and the state itself are casualties.
This plan is so well laid out, right down to when Bodner loses and when we get Alme—Tester can blame the Dems for not backing Bodner, and blame Alani for not “dropping out”— and no one will be looking at DATA CENTER because the finger pointing will be poking out eyes.
Could Danielle Egnew’s conspiracy theory be correct? She’s certainly got that last part right about poking out eyes, which seemed to escalate after 17 legislators wrote that letter I would have written about more explicitly if I wasn’t legally forbidden from writing about one of the signatories.
Instead, let’s consult some curated comments from the digital commons about the signatories:
While the FB comments about the letter smacked of asking mom and dad to stop fighting, they seemed more hostile toward the dad side, which conveniently kept one aspect of Alani Bankhead’s candidacy from being closely scrutinized, and that’s the question of where she came from and how long she’s been a resident of Montana, something Montanans are notorious for taking pretty seriously.
Another thing not appreciated by Montanans is the state of California, so if Reilly really is running to Los Angeles to tattle on Montana for mean political conspiracies against women, like Egnew claims at the end of her Facebook post, then that will just worsen the animosity that has broken out between Democrat women and Seth Bodnar supporters, further increasing the odds of Kurt Alme will win easily in November.
Reilly is on her Facebook page claiming Alani is a “plant” to deliberately foul her campaign and that she’s a “ghost”, that everything she’s said about herself is fabricated. Neill’s saying she’s been interviewed by LA TV producers about all of this in an upcoming national expose on everybody involved — Bodner, Tester, Alani, herself. Yeah. Great.
We Montanans just wanted a shot at a decent senator to help fix what’s wrong in the USA.
We just wanted to have a primary and run a good campaign.
If this is correct— and I truly hope I’m simply having a demented Agatha Christie moment—then thanks, Jon Tester.
I guess if you can’t have it— then none of us can?
The “Data Center” angle is definitely a good conspiracy theory angle to apply to the Montana Senate race, and it may even be true because, to emphasize how weird things are getting, an environmental group just advocated to keep PSC pariah, Brad Molnar, close to the energy company merger action, since he knows (and opposes) what this merger could mean for…DATA CENTERS!
A Missoula-based environmental group has raised concerns about a replacement Montana Public Service Commissioner voting on a potential Northwestern Energy – Black Hills Corporation merger.
A replacement is needed because Gov. Greg Gianforte recently suspended Commissioner Brad Molnar of Laurel for one year, citing alleged inappropriate behavior toward staff members.
The group 350 Montana says Molnar knows the details of the proposed merger and needs to be in on the decision. NorthWestern officials have said they are seeking the merger to increase generation capacity in the face of rising demand. Critics, including Molnar, have said the merger is aimed at paving the way for development of data centers, which have drawn criticism from local ratepayers.
And to further highlight the strange bedfellows emerging in this data center drama, I was already quite suspicious of how the national narrative was forming when Erin Brockovich popped up to re-brand herself as an anti-data center warrior…
…but now, with last Saturday’s nationally organized protest being coordinated by a former Tea Party movement activist, that suspicion has grown significantly.
The backlash against the AI data-center build-out – which we’ve been tracking since it was a smattering of county fights across 28 states – staged its first coordinated day of action on Saturday: 142 protests across 42 states, from Wasilla, Alaska to Naples, Florida, organized by Humans First, the nonprofit that Tea Party veteran Amy Kremer co-founded and chairs. The crowds spanned both sides of the aisle…uniting a MAGA stalwart in a ‘faith, family, freedom’ T-shirt in New Jersey, a first-time activist in Texas, and a left-leaning organizer in California’s Imperial Valley.
…
Kremer is a founding figure of the Tea Party movement who went on to found Women for Trump, and an organizer of the January 6, 2021 rally that preceded the Capitol riot (she neither planned nor took part in the riot itself). She has spent months calling data centers the defining fight of her lifetime, warning the technology could threaten humanity itself, and she is open about running the old playbook: grassroots pressure, town by town, aimed at both parties.
Does Amy Kremer sound like a “grassroots” activist? Or, if your brain isn’t partisan retard mush, does she sound like a Fed?
I think Amy Kremer sounds like a Fed.
To finish this up, it’s my somewhat radical assertion that what’s happening right now with these more covert data center power plays possibly hiding behind local political theatrics was foretold in Ari Aster’s movie, Eddington, which I helped break down on an episode of the PsyOp Cinema podcast, which you can listen to here. There are even specific references to Montana that I caught in the movie and put into context with my pattern-recognition skills, so check it out!
I also caught what I believe to be a reference to the Epstein Network in that film, which makes sense considering Eddington takes place in New Mexico, where the Zorro Ranch is located, and where Ghislaine Maxwell’s sister, Christine Maxwell, does her work at the Santa Fe Institute, which I wrote about 3 years ago in a post titled “Six Degrees Of Jeffrey Epstein, Missoula Edition“.
Because of my research into the Epstein connections to Montana, which you can peruse in this post with lots of links to other relevant posts, my ability to live anything close to a “normal” life has been totally upended. While an alleged “plant” like Alani Bankhead uses the phrase “Epstein Era” for legacy media to take note of, my work on Epstein is only getting official attention from the courts as the bathroom judge listened attentively on May 12th to a state legislator commit perjury before putting a TEN YEAR retraining order in place that excludes me from downtown Missoula, a majority of UM’s campus, the capitol building in Helena, and essential services that I need to access in order to fight for my FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS on appeal.
The people who continue to come after me, using whatever means available to try and shut me down, have VERY close ties to Jon Tester AND the Gianforte administration, so I’m in a unique position to see how non-partisan the corruption in Montana truly is, and how effective the manipulative efforts to control narratives actually are once you take the blinders off, and for that ability I am being severly punished.
