Reading about the life and adventures of Huey Long, one of Alternative History's favourite "could have been the American Hitler" choices, and US politics has always been a violent shitshow of Capitalist grift and racial dogma, hasn't it? 😬
I'm just at the bit where his brother bit someone's neck in the Louisiana government chamber during his Impeachment proceedings....

Across Montana’s mill towns, a cone of scorched steel burned day and night, devouring sawdust nobody wanted. Locals called it a teepee burner—Bonner’s mines needed its timber, Lincoln’s valley needed its glow. Clean air laws finally shut them down. A few survive as monuments. Discover the fiery landmark that powered a state

A humble Yellowstone woodyard became the “largest stock-shipping point in the Northwest” — home to a rediscovered photographer’s lost archive, a million pounds of wool a year, and Montana’s oldest running hotel. From a Sitting Bull peace council to a general’s namesake depot, Terry’s story is bigger than its 600 residents.

The United States claims lineage from Athenian democracy, but rarely goes into detail about what that even is.
Features of Athenian democracy:
* A class of slaves that made the lifestyle of the land-holding class possible
* A class of non-voting residents to produce other goods and services
* A class of male land-holding citizens who can vote
* An empire that claimed democracy, but ruthlessly put down other cities attempting to free themselves from their chainsTo early US Americans this was aspirational only because they saw themselves in the powerful land-holding class of Athens that could easily justify imperial excesses in the name of the governed, because some nepobaby voted for it.
Representative democracy in conjunction with capitalism does not steer far from those roots.

I recently finished reading Ron Chernow's biography of George Washington. Excellent. A couple things they don't teach you to in school.
1. The hardships at Valley Forge were directly caused by the colonies not paying for the war.
2. The main founders did not trust each other, spied on others, and at times, petty and jealous.
3. They all had blind spots when it came to blacks. None were close to perfect.
Highly recommended.

A self-taught sign painter arrived in Montana a year after Little Bighorn — and spent 20 years turning eyewitness interviews into the era's most debated battle painting. War, rival legend Charlie Russell, and a bitter fight over where the canvas belongs: Edgar Paxson's story is Montana history in oil.

By Ella Spitz
Located in Lower Manhattan, Five Points was a poor, overcrowded neighborhood where disease spread rapidly, rival gangs battled for control, and violent riots frequently broke out in the streets.

A T. rex femur cracked open in eastern Montana in 2000 revealed something science said couldn't exist: soft, stretchy tissue 68 million years old. Blood vessels, hidden cells, even proof the dinosaur was female. One broken bone from the Hell Creek badlands rewrote what we thought fossils could hold.

Paroled Confederate soldiers just wanted to survive a Montana winter. Instead they found gold so rich one pan yielded $1,400. Within two years, a third of the territory’s population crowded into one gulch. Within five, nearly all of it was gone. What really happened at Confederate Gulch—and whose version is true?

Montana’s first legislature had a problem in 1865: no official map existed. They turned to Walter De Lacy, an engineer whose West Point pedigree wasn’t quite what it seemed, to chart gold gulches and county lines across largely unmapped wilderness. Discover the hurried compilation that gave Montana its first true portrait.

A German butcher’s boy arrived in Montana broke. Twenty years later he ran cattle on 10 million acres. Conrad Kohrs built the Pioneer Cattle Company on a huge 1883 buyout of the DHS Ranch—then watched the brutal winter of 1886-87 nearly wipe it out. How he clawed it back is one of Montana’s great survival stories.
