Afternoon Brief — October 4, 2026

By Steven Bullcoming Haworth · October 4, 2026

Three things to know this Sunday afternoon:

  • Community meal in Lame Deer: Soup and sandwiches will be served at Veterans Park beginning at 4:00 PM today. Truth in Focus has added the event to the Community Calendar as a public service.
  • New On the Record editorial: Truth in Focus examines why government information should not have to be reconstructed from scattered Facebook posts, screenshots and competing statements. The focus is transparency, accessible records and separating documented facts from claims.
  • Northern Cheyenne government update: Recent tribal-court rulings reaffirmed the authority of eight council members removed in 2025. The restored Council later voted to remove President Gene Small; Small disputes that action. Truth in Focus continues seeking and reviewing primary records.

Look at the record. Follow the facts. Ask the questions.
