In another 5-10 years, Montana will be another Colorado. I'm getting out of this place before it gets any worse. Had a few good years up here, though.

I think most places take it pretty seriously. Some organizations have taken a zero tolerance policy and that can help staff understand better. Most, if not all organizations should require some form of privacy training at hire and annually after that. Some training is better than others. I've done hundreds (if not more) of privacy investigations at several health systems, and I've seen the worst of the worst. Love triangles, small town gossip, department gossip, curiosity, willful disregard, and social media posts. In 15 years of investigations, what I've encountered is that emergency departments seems to have the biggest issues but I've seen it all over the place. I've seen staff at all levels (janitors, coding, billing, all kinds of clinical staff) be fired for privacy violations. Some days I've felt like Jerry Springer talking to these people about what they did and why they did it. I've also, seen the govt fine organizations big money for some cases.

Gianforte....A-
He's done better than I expected. Could help more on state public land access getting locked in by private land owners. Not bad, though.

Yep, been up here in Montana for 11 years. Time to cash out and head south. Tons of California and Minnesota wackos taking over. It's changed soo much even in the time I've been here.

Whomever it will be, they will face an incumbent that has many, many millions in campaign cash from pharma. Hopefully, his opponent will be well funded for the campaign.

He could have scared more voters with "Vote, or I'll pp in your mouth" rather than "Vote or Die". Missed opportunity for Diddy.

Those that throw "nazi" around when describing anything these days should be forced to go see the scratches by the door of the gas chamber at Dachau and then tell me if they really believe DJT or anyone else is truly a nazi.

The days of agree to disagree about politics are over. I don't see it ever getting better anytime soon. The (very) few lefty friends I had have become totally unhinged and irrational. Sad

Is there anyone in South Carolina that can beat Graham? Surely there is someone that can beat this guy. It's time for him to be retired but this dude is a powerhouse in South Carolina.

Yep, this is just a small part of the tip of the iceberg. It's disgusting
