An elected official in my town runs the local social media group where most people get their news. When she saw stories she didn’t like, or that didn’t show her in the best light, she would remove the posts and block residents. She even blocked me while I was running against her for office - breaking her oath of office. So I asked myself: what’s something she can’t censor? A real, printed local newspaper. I reached out to two incredible women and shared my idea to bring real, fact-based news and resources back to our community. We don’t always agree and that’s exactly what makes the paper strong. Not only do we provide local news, we highlight local heroes, share important reminders, provide resources for those in need, and publish a community calendar. The response from residents and local businesses has been so overwhelming that we’re now able to deliver the paper to every household in town, completely free to residents.

VP JD Vance just broke the tie and voted for the One Big Beautiful Bill. It reminds me of when Kamala Harris broke the tie for the American Rescue Plan. Right wing, left wing, same bird.

RFK Jr: “Fluoride is crazy because we know it reduces IQ - there’s no question.” “If you have kids, would you rather them have cavities or lower IQ?” Theo: “I’d rather them have cavities. I’d rather them have holes in their teeth than holes in their ideas or whatever.”

I asked Thomas Massie what got him involved in politics: LOCAL ISSUES. “I just decided that, if I ran for the county executive position…that I can appoint people to these boards that are, you know, making these decisions. Which sometimes actually violate your constitutional rights.” “Like three grandmas on the water board can condemn your property and run a pipeline through it.” It all starts local 👏

RFK Jr puts the measles hysteria to bed. “This has become a talking point for Democrats that somehow I caused the measles epidemic. The measles epidemic started in January 2025 - before I came into office.” “Most of the people affected are over the age of 5 years old, meaning their decision to not vaccinate predated my appointment to this office. We had about 2,200 measles cases last year and we had 1,700 this year. This is not unique to the United States. This is a global outbreak. Mexico had 3x the number of measles cases than we did. We did better than any other country in the world at controlling the epidemic. Mexico has 3x the number and it has 1/3 of the population. Canada has twice the number and it has 1/8 of our population. Europe had 33,000 cases in the last year and a 127,000 the year before and they have one half of our population. So the problem is not me.”

Thomas Massie: “If the legislative branch always votes with the President, then we do have a king. If the legislative branch always votes whichever way the wind is blowing, then we have mob rule. But if the legislative branch, and the representatives and the senators that serve with it, always follow the constitution, WE HAVE A REPUBLIC!”

Full update on Charlie Kirk’s Assassination (9/11/25 at 9:30am est) Charlie’s body will be returned home today. They do have camera footage of the shooter making his way up to the roof, leaving, and going into a neighborhood. They have collected footprints, a handprint, and more. They do have images of him. The FBI is using technology to try to identify him. If unsuccessful, they will release the images to the media for help. A bolt action riffle was recovered in the woods. While they do not want to release identifying information as of right now, they say he blended in well with the university and appeared to be college age.

Some people definitely did not expect me to dig up this old clip. This is Kennedy in 2008 testifying to Congress on the harmful effects of mercury. Ed Markey was the chair who invited him, and he now says, “Robert Kennedy Jr. is an unqualified, unserious, and dangerous nominee for US Secretary of Health and Human Services.” Funny how no one called him crazy then.

This is an interesting two minutes. -President Trump was asked if we were going to change our meat standards since the UK will not accept our food since it’s full of chemicals. -Trump says Bobby is working on this. -Then Secretary Rollins (USDA) immediately backtracks, “to be very clear, American beef is the safest, the best quality, and the crowned jewel of American agriculture for the world.” That is simply not true. That’s why they won’t take our beef today.

Dave Smith demolished the Israel debate before it really got started. “Every. Single. Time. I come up here to debate issues, and they come up here to debate me and my character. It’s all they have every single time. Because they can’t actually take on any of the arguments so the most pathetic lowest hanging fruit of ‘You guys like Trump, this guy said bad things about Trump.’ Listen guys, I’m a free American. I supported Donald Trump in this last election. Yes, he did just actively cover up a giant child *apist ring and I’m going to criticize him for that.”

BOOM: Secretary Kennedy just demolished big pharma…again. Every news station has reported on a brand new Danish study supposedly showing that Tylenol does not cause autism. RFK Jr: “The study is a garbage study. It should be retracted. The study took a million, the medical records, of a million danish women and it compared women who got Tylenol during pregnancy to people who did not. The problem is, the way it determined whether they got Tylenol during pregnancy was by prescriptions. So only 2% of the people in the study got Tylenol during pregnancy - according to the end point.” “Tylenol is available over the counter. Many of you have taken Tylenol, but very few of you have ever gotten a prescription. 50% of the people in Denmark, we know from other studies, actually took Tylenol during pregnancy. So the study was comparing women who took Tylenol during pregnancy to women who took Tylenol during pregnancy. It was a garbage in, garbage out study. The industry has the capacity to generate these studies all the time and it’s fraudulent.”

I’ll never forget when Reid Hoffman ran away from RFK Jr like the small man he is. He had the opportunity to talk to RFK Jr on the All In podcast, but logged off like a coward. He spent millions suing RFK Jr to make an independent race impossible and then he tried to sabotage the RFK Jr/Trump alliance - all while saying he believes in democracy. Now he is all over the Epstein files. Shocker.

“I took Tylenol and my kids are just fine.” Or “I never took Tylenol and my kid is autistic.” Hear me out: Smoking is linked to lung cancer, But smoking is not the only thing that causes lung cancer. Also, smoking does not guarantee lung cancer. Wouldn’t it be reasonable that Tylenol is the same way? Tylenol is linked to autism, But Tylenol is not the only thing that causes autism. Also, Tylenol does not guarantee autism.
