This week marks the 40th anniversary of the bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. In the words of President Ronald Reagan, “We should all recognize these deeds make so evident the bestial nature of those who would assume power if they could have their way.” Reagan’s words ring as true today as they did then.

Some have questioned why U.S. intelligence agencies did not have prior warning of Iran-backed Hamas' terrorist attack against Israel last weekend.
Rep. Ryan Zinke, R-Mont., told Newsmax on Thursday it's possible the U.S. was caught off guard because the Biden administration doesn't view Iran as such a threat in the Middle East, even though Tehran is widely regarded as the world's foremost state sponsor of terrorism.
“We know that a number of those Americans are being held hostage right now by Hamas,” John Kirby, White House coordinator for Strategic Communications said during a briefing on Wednesday.
“I think we all need to steel ourselves for the very distinct possibility that these numbers will keep increasing and that we may, in fact, find out that more Americans are part of the hostage pool,” he said.
Kirby said not much was known about the condition of the hostages or their whereabouts.
Throughout his tenure, including his recent term as Congressman for Montana, Ryan Zinke has consistently advocated for wildlife management. His ongoing efforts to delist the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) grizzly bear are both valid and deeply appreciated, especially by those in communities most affected. With the grizzly bear population rising to over 1000 from 737 in just two years, and receiving a high resiliency rating from the US Fish and Wildlife Service in 2021 for the GYE, it makes logical sense to remove the grizzly bear from the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
Showing just how broken Washington, D.C., and Congress are, Rep. Ryan Zinke, R-Mont., lamented on Newsmax how a government shutdown stops pay for American troops, but not Ukrainians.
Western Montana Congressman Ryan Zinke is proud to announce that for the first time the Montana Veterans Affairs will join the Spokane Veterans Affairs in hosting the 23rd annual Libby Veterans Stand Down in Lincoln County.
The event will take place Saturday, Sept. 30 and Sunday, Oct. 1 at the Memorial Center in Libby. Hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday.
Resources will support hundreds of veterans in Northwest Montana and statewide.
