President Trump urges Montana voters to elect GOP candidates as he holds a rally in the treasure state.
The president appeared with Senate candidate Matt Rosendale in Belgrade Saturday, where he blasted Democrat incumbent Jon Tester for ‘trying to destroy’ former VA Secretary nominee Dr. Ronny Jackson.
He also urged rally goers to re-elect GOP Representative Greg Gianforte, and slammed his Democrat Challenger Kathleen Williams as a left wing radical who wants to raise taxes.
The president warned against the possibility that Democrats could take over Congress.

“This election will decide whether we build on the extraordinary prosperity that we’ve achieved or whether we let the radical Democrats take control of Congress and take a giant wrecking ball to our economy and to the future of our nation. America now has the best economy in the history of our country. Can you believe this?” -President Trump

He also pointed out Republicans believe our country should be a sanctuary for law abiding citizens and alleged that Democrats don’t want to change the weak immigration laws.

Conservatives' 'Turn California Red' rally could attract Antifa counter-protesters: report

Californians aiming to promote conservative leaders and causes ahead of Tuesday’s election plan to gather in Sacramento on Sunday, potentially setting the stage for a clash with counter-protesters.
Organizers of the “Turn California Red” rally say supporters will assemble outside the state Capitol at 1 p.m. local time. The organizers obtained a permit for up to 500 people to attend the event, according to the California Highway Patrol.
“Let’s show these Democrat politicians that we are no longer silent and their seats are no longer safe,” the event page reads.
By Saturday night, 150 people had posted they planned to attend and more than 650 claimed they were interested.
The gathering comes as some California conservatives have grown tired of the state's liberal politics. Event planners said Democrats have made the state "unlivable for normal citizens."
But Sunday's gathering could draw a counter-protest. An anti-fascist group called Antifa Sacramento warned its members on the group’s Facebook page that “the far-right is descending." The group urged people to “Show up against bigotry” as long as they’re “capable of intervening in the event of street harassment or attacks.”
Event organizer Chris Ross acknowledged to the Sacramento Bee that the rally comes as rhetoric by conservatives is facing intense scrutiny in light of a Florida man who allegedly mailed bombs being sent to several Democratic politicians and liberals.
“In the midst of recent events some may be feeling discouraged heading into the midterms and into this rally,” he wrote. “We cannot and will not allow the actions of one man (to) influence our passion to complete our mission. Stay the course, Patriots.”
He urged people on the event page to refrain from inflammatory rhetoric to jeopardize the event.
He also wrote that all signs and flags must be mounted on yardsticks -- with no pipes, thick posts or "anything in that category" allowed, he wrote.
Officials in Sacramento are expected to be on high alert, the San Diego-Union Tribune reported. If you're a conservative and are sick and tired of Antifa, maybe you should request that Facebook take down Antifa's Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/antifasac/photos/a.1289998694427682/1954239171336961/?type=3&theater. These people should not be allowed to spread their hate.

'No evidence' to back Kavanaugh accusers' claims, Senate panel's report on FBI probe finds

An investigation into sexual misconduct allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh by multiple women found that no witnesses could provide evidence to substantiate their claims, a letter to Senate Republicans from the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman said Friday.
According to the 414-page report released by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, investigators interviewed more than 40 people, monitored social media and news reports and reviewed evidence provided by the judge and his accusers.
“Following the separate and extensive investigations by both the Committee and the FBI, there was no evidence to substantiate any of the claims of sexual assault made against Justice Kavanaugh,” the report states.

— Report by Senate Judiciary Committee

The sexual misconduct allegations came during the committee's hearings to decide whether Kavanaugh, whom President Trump nominated in July to succeed retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy, would be confirmed. Kavanaugh's nomination set off a battle between Republicans, most of whom defended the judge, and Democrats, who pushed for a large-scale investigation into the women's allegations.
Among those questioned, the report said, were Mark Judge, PJ Smyth, and Leland Keyser, the three individuals whom accuser Christine Blasey Ford claimed were present in the house when Kavanaugh allegedly threw her on a bed and sexually assaulted her sometime in the 1980s.
Grassley last month requested that the FBI investigate accuser Julie Swetnick and her attorney, Michael Avenatti, who also represents porn star Stormy Daniels in her allegations against President Trump. Swetnick’s credibility was questioned after an ex-boyfriend told Fox News that "she exaggerated everything" and threatened to kill his unborn child.

Investigators found no evidence to support either woman’s claims. Swetnick also made several contradictory statements about her claims during television interviews and refused to speak with committee investigators, the letter said.
“Indeed, the evidence appears to support the position that Julie Swetnick and Mr. Avenatti criminally conspired to make materially false statements to the Committee and obstruct the Committee’s investigation.”

Other alleged incidents involving Kavanaugh, said to have occurred in three states, were found not to be credible.
Grassley also requested an investigation into Judy Munro-Leighton, who anonymously claimed Kavanaugh slapped her and forced her to perform oral sex on him.

Munro-Leighton contacted the committee in October claiming she wrote an anonymous letter accusing the judge of sexual misconduct. Grassley said she later recanted authorship and admitted to not knowing Kavanaugh under questioning from the committee.
“She later admitted that she was not the author of it and merely used it as a “ploy” to “get attention” and had never met Justice Kavanaugh,” according to the letter.
In September, President Trump ordered a limited FBI probe into allegations by Ford and accuser Deborah Ramirez.
The investigation found no evidence of wrongdoing on Kavanaugh’s part.
