When i first moved to bozeman, there were so many things named story, story street, story motors, story distributing, story hills. But there was not a lot written on him. There was a historian who once said to me, you know, bozeman is misnamed. It ought to be story. Or storyville, or story town.

But i was curious about nelsons story since his name was plastered all over the place here. I just wanted to find out more about it. There has not been a fulllength biography about him, so over the years, i put it together. Nelson story was one of the more successful western capitalists in the history of the American West.

He also was clear in saying if you thought the president could be cleared, he would have cleared him, but he didnt. That is very clear. He has given us an array of facts that we will take to the congress and to the court as we look forward as we investigate and litigate. But i do think it would be important because the American People still have not seen an unredacted Mueller Report. While he may have felt these were the priority points to make to the public, that there may be questions relating to these facts that members of congress would have. I still hope you would come before congress. Seemed reluctant, he wouldnt go beyond the report. What would you hope to get tomorrow in the testimony . Speaker pelosi i think there is clarification and confirmation, the report has been misrepresented grossly by the attorney general.
