 Lynching White People in Montana

A Politically Incorrect History Rescued from Oblivion

Readers are strongly cautioned: some of the accompanying photos of the victims of lynchings herein are graphic. Reading time is approximately 75 minutes.

Preface: This is an extensive study, given that it requires exposition necessary to document what has been, thus far, terra incognita: the mostly consequence-free lynching of white people as a form of institutional terror perpetrated by their kinsmen in the ruling class.

Beginning in the mid-19th century, Montana territory was coveted by men who sought its superintendency in order to establish a monopoly over its abundant natural resources. The instrument of their power was a secret society framework akin to the Freemasons, whose lodges dotted the towns of the Old West with the virulence of a contagion.

It has been this writer’s contention since the publication of They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold History of the Enslavement of Whites in Early America, that the Caucasian power class has largely had no use for the Caucasian working class, except as cannon fodder in its fratricidal wars, serfs in its factories, and consumers of its junk food, cigarettes, liquor, polluted air and water, mendacious mass media and loanshark banking.

In the post Civil War South this took the form of “divide-and-conquer,” by sowing division between black and white workers and using the memory of the Confederacy and its defiance of Federal power as the spear point of the operation.

Personally, I would have had no problem with secession if the Confederacy had freed the black slaves as its first order of business, granted them full citizenship, compensated them with land and money for their past invaluable labor, and assisted in their training and education. Instead, the heavily oppressed poor whites of the South, reduced to poverty by having to compete with black slave labor, were inveigled into identifying with their oppressors among the owners of the plantation system.

Adam Hochschild recounts one chapter in the history of this tricknology:

“The United Daughters of the Confederacy and its male counterpart, the United Confederate Veterans, were both dominated by the plantation owners who after the war had managed to hold on to their land or used landed wealth to gain power in the business world. It is no accident that the men’s group sprang into life in 1889 and the women’s in 1894. That was an era of nationwide labor unrest, which reached the South when Black and White dockworkers, streetcar drivers, and other union members in New Orleans walked off the job together in a surprisingly successful general strike in 1892.

“This period also saw the dramatic rise of the People’s Party, better known as the Populists. To the horror of groups like the Daughters, it won 8.5 percent of the popular vote in the 1892 presidential election by railing against plutocracy.

“The Populists were above all the voice of the country’s indebted small farmers. Their moment on the national stage would be short, but the alliances that White Populists forged with Blacks and organized labor were particularly alarming to the Southern elite.

“When a coalition of this sort briefly took control of North Carolina in the mid-1890s, for instance, the number of Black magistrates and other officeholders soared. The legislature repealed restrictions on voting, capped banks’ interest rates, imposed tougher regulations on railroads…

“This was the only state government ever controlled by such a coalition, but for the ruling families of the South it was as horrifying as another invasion by the Union Army. To make sure it would never happen again, Southern states swiftly passed poll taxes, literacy tests, and other measures that dramatically slashed the number of Black—and poor White—voters.

“More violently, the Southern elite inflamed the White racism that had made the Black–White Populist alliance uneasy and fragile to begin with. Nowhere was that alliance crushed more viciously than in Wilmington, North Carolina, which was governed since an 1897 municipal election by a biracial coalition that included Populists.

“On November 10, 1898, thousands of White men swept through town on a murder spree, burning the office of a Black newspaper, forcing both Black and White city officials to flee, and leaving at least sixty Black people dead. Three years later the United Daughters of the Confederacy chose Wilmington as the site of its annual convention…” (New York Review of Books, December 7, 2023, p. 25, italics added).

The Populist Party Platform of 1892 is worthy of study. It helps to dispel the contemporary Right-wing’s candy-coated presentation of our nation’s history, which consistently obscures the role of the Money Power in the oppression of the American people. Here’s an excerpt:

“Silver, which has been accepted as coin since the dawn of history, has been demonetized…the supply of currency is purposely abridged to fatten usurers, bankrupt enterprise, and enslave industry. A vast conspiracy against mankind has been organized on two continents, and it is rapidly taking possession of the world…

“…They (the Republicans and the Democrats) have agreed together to ignore, in the coming (1892 presidential) campaign, every issue but one. They propose to drown the outcries of a plundered people with the uproar of a sham battle over the tariff, so that capitalists, corporations, national banks, rings, trusts, watered stock, the demonetization of silver and the oppressions of the usurers may all be lost sight of. They propose to sacrifice our homes, lives, and children on the altar of mammon; to destroy the multitude in order to secure corruption-funds from the millionaires.

“…The newspapers are largely subsidized or muzzled, public opinion silenced, business prostrated, homes covered with mortgages, labor impoverished, and the land concentrating in the hands of capitalists. The urban workmen are denied the right to organize for self-protection; imported pauperized labor beats down their wages, a hireling standing army, unrecognized by our laws, is established to shoot them down…The fruits of the toil of millions are boldly stolen to build up colossal fortunes for a few, unprecedented in the history of mankind; and the possessors of these, in turn despise the Republic and endanger liberty. From the same prolific womb of governmental injustice we breed the two great classes—tramps and millionaires.”

In this study I have focused on the Montana region, though similar vigilante crimes occurred in many parts of the U.S.  The chronicle of hangings in America committed by self-appointed executioners has been reduced largely to a study of the undeniable record of the criminal lynchings of black people.

It’s a censored history which conveys the false impression of white poor people generally exempt from vigilante violence and who, amidst an alleged relationship of remarkable solidarity with plutocrats, supposedly enjoyed paternal solicitude from the white ruling class. As the populists testified and as revisionist history demonstrates, this is a species of absolute imposture.

The legend that black people were the nearly exclusive victims of the noose is intended to misdirect and manipulate black analysis of race relations in the U.S. by viewing those relations through a twisted interstice, rather than advancing knowledge of the larger picture, which is our objective here.

The Cryptocracy’s goal has been to instigate mistrust and resentment between the black and white American proletariat by transforming their legitimate grievances toward government and predatory capitalism (as opposed to a Biblical free enterprise system), into a mutual race hatred which checkmates both races.

In the 21st century I regret to say that the vigilante spirit continues to be at work in Montana and Idaho. For instance, last year in Lewiston, Idaho a killer who committed pre-meditated murder in the first degree was found guilty only of manslaughter, which in Idaho carries a maximum sentence of 15 years. The jurors decided that the killer had a sincere belief that his innocent victim was a child molester (contrary to multiple investigations by family court that cleared the targeted man of the false charge). Consequently, the jurors decided the murderer did not deserve death or a long imprisonment for taking the life of an outstanding Christian father.

I’m in favor of the ancient right of jury nullification to overturn a bad law. The last time I checked however, the law against a planned homicide is not such a statute. I knew the victim and I know his grieving family and friends. A rural Idaho jury concluded that a deluded vigilante from within their own community should receive the minimum possible sentence for taking the life of a father from out of town.

What follows is an expanded version of a study first published in the periodical, Revisionist History.® It will comprise one chapter in my forthcoming book, to be published, God willing, in 2025: “The Ruling Class War Against Poor and Working Class Whites.” The project is reader-funded.

JOHNNY PUNISH Over 370 Trinity College Staff and Researchers Call on University to ‘Cut Ties with Israel’

Over 370 Trinity College Staff and Researchers Call on University to ‘Cut Ties with Israel’

The letter comes after reports on Trinity College Dublin’s links with companies that operate in Israeli settlements.


VT Condemns the ETHNIC CLEANSING OF PALESTINIANS by USA/Israel

$ 280 BILLION US TAXPAYER DOLLARS INVESTED since 1948 in US/Israeli Ethnic Cleansing and Occupation Operation; $ 150B direct "aid" and $ 130B in "Offense" contracts

OVER 370 TRINITY COLLEGE Dublin staff members and PHD researchers have signed a letter that calls on the university’s provost to conduct a full review of the college’s “links with Israeli institutions”.

The letter also takes objection to what it labels as Trinity’s “silence and professed neutrality on Israel’s assault on Gaza”.

Over 30,000 people in Gaza are reported to have died as a result of Israel’s military campaign in the region, which was initiated in response to the October 7 Hamas attacks that saw roughly 1,160 people killed, and 250 people being taken hostage, who are mainly Israelis.

Dr Fintan Sheerin and Dr David Landy of the Trinity branch of Academia for Palestine met with the Provost Linda Doyle on Thursday to deliver the letter, and to present its demands that the college “condemn the attack on Gaza”, support students from the region, and “cut links with Israeli institutions”.

Linda E. Doyle is an Irish academic and educator who is the 45th Provost of Trinity College Dublin, the university’s chief officer, having assumed the office in August 2021.

They said that Doyle agreed to study the contents of the letter and to respond in due course.

Dr David Landy, who is an assistant professor of sociology at the college, said that his place of work is “complicit in genocide”.

Landy further said: “We have research links with Israeli institutions backing the war, we use Israeli suppliers linked with the IDF, and we invest in Israeli companies committing human rights abuses.

While we seek to profit from these links with Israel, the Israeli government has destroyed every single university in Gaza. This is beyond shameful.”


Trinity College Dublin was created by royal charter in 1592, at which point Dublin Corporation provided a suitable site, the former Priory of All Hallows. Its foundation came at a time when many universities were being established across western Europe in the belief that they would give prestige to the state in which they were located and that their graduates, clergy for the most part, would perform a vital service as civil administrators.

By the 1590s England had two long established universities, each with an expanding group of colleges, and Scotland four. The idea of a university college for Ireland emerged at a time when the English state was strengthening its control over the kingdom and when Dublin was beginning to function as a capital city.

The group of citizens, lay and clerical, who were main promoters of the scheme believed that the establishment of a university was an essential step in bringing Ireland into the mainstream of European learning and in strengthening the Protestant Reformation within the country.

Landy and Sheerin referenced a report from The Ditch on Trinity’s investments in companies that are operating within Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

The letter comes after various other calls from staff members and the college’s students’ union to end its links with Israel.

Dr Fintan Sheerin said that it is “unprecedented” for hundreds of staff members to sign a letter “like this”.

“In the end, our college cannot remain neutral in the face of genocide,” he added.

The sample of the letter can be viewed here below.

History of Solidarity: Why Ireland stands out in EU as fierce defender of Palestinian rights

Country’s steadfast support for Palestinian cause, from grassroots to highest echelons of power, exemplifies profound sense of empathy, shared history

While one might assume the deafening chorus of unconditional support Israel enjoys stretches across all Western nations, there is one country that stands out as a bastion for Palestinian rights: Ireland.

The majority of the Irish people’s support for the Palestinian cause exemplifies a profound sense of empathy and shared history.

While many European countries have been offering Israel “unwavering” support, Ireland opted to show its solidarity with Palestine.

Irish President Michael Higgins criticized remarks by European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen since the conflict broke out on Oct. 7, saying she was “not speaking for Ireland and she wasn’t speaking for the opinions that they hold.”

Ireland’s perception of Israel underwent a significant transformation as the country grappled with its own anti-British rebellion and a painful civil war that left Northern Ireland under British control.

To many in Ireland, Israel is more akin to a colonial entity forcibly established by British influence, determined to assert itself over an indigenous population.

This view was further cemented by Israel’s actions after 1967, particularly its occupation of East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip. The seizure of Palestinian land and imposition of military rule evoked memories of Ireland’s own history of repression at the hands of the British.

This has forged a strong connection between the two nations, separated by geography but united by their yearning for justice and freedom, and continues to shape international discourse and advocacy for Palestinian rights.
