THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 4-2-2024 / NASA-JET PROPULSION LAB
An annular eclipse meaning most of the sun is obscured with a portion of its ring still showing shown in a NASA photograph.
Free celestial performance for a limited time on Monday
Local area will get great
but not full view of eclipse
show starts 12:35 p.m.
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Though Mondays solar
eclipse wont be seen in totality from
Anderson County, its going to get
dark very dark in Eastern Kansas.
Calculations based on NASA
research data show the partial eclipse
should begin in Garnett at approximately 12:35 p.m., and will reach its
maximum point at about 1:52 p.m.,
when some 90 percent of the sun will
be blotted out by the moon. The whole
event will last about 2 hours 34 minutes.
A solar eclipse happens when the
moon passes between Earth and the
sun, blocking its view of the Sun from
a small part of the earths surface
either totally or partially. An alignment like that actually happens about
every six months, during the eclipse
season in its new moon phase, when
the Moons orbital plane is closest to
the plane of the Earths orbit.
In a total eclipse, the disk of the
Sun is fully obscured by the Moon.
In partial and annular eclipses, only
part of the Sun is obscured. Unlike a
lunar eclipse, which may be viewed
from anywhere on the night side of
Earth, a solar eclipse can only be
viewed from a relatively small area of
the world. Though total solar eclipses
occur somewhere on Earth every 18
months on average, they recur at any
given place only once every 360 to 410
years.
If the Moon was in a perfectly
circular orbit and in the same orbital plane as Earth, there would be
total solar eclipses once a month at
every new moon. Instead, because
the Moons orbit is tilted at about
5 degrees to Earths orbit, its shadow usually misses Earth. Solar and
lunar eclipses therefore happen only
during eclipse seasons, resulting in
at least two, and up to five, solar
eclipses each year, no more than two
of which can be total. Total eclipses
are more rare because they require
a more precise alignment between
the centers of the Sun and Moon, and
because the Moons apparent size in
the sky is sometimes too small to
fully cover the Sun.
Though the illustration of the
phenomena will still be dramatic in
our part of the country, Kansas will
still be more than a hundred miles
from the full blackout path as the
shadow makes its way from southwestern Mexico across Texas and
the southeast corner of Oklahoma,
slicing across most of Arkansas and
Southeast Missouri as it heads on a
path to the New England states. The
curve of the earth makes more and
more of the sun visible from under
the moon shadow the further a viewer is away from the core blackout
path. The movement of the moon and
the elapsed time of the fullest level
of the event also moves faster due to
that geometry.
For eastern Kansans who want
to experience the total eclipse, it
will require a few hours drive into
Arkansas. There, the solar eclipses
will reveal the Suns outer atmosphere the corona a white, wispy
halo of solar material that flows out
from around the Sun. This atmosphere is breathtaking as it glows
in the sky for viewers on Earth, surrounding the dark disk of the moon
with a halo.
In addition to revealing this normally hidden part of our sun, the
eclipse also darkens the sky, changes
shadows, and cools the air. Animals
famously alter their behavior because
of the sudden change in sunlight and
air temperature.
As we go through the phases of an
eclipse, there are changes in light,
said Liz Aguilar, a PHD student in
biology at Indiana University. There
will probably be a twilight zone of
around 30 minutes before we reach
totality during the eclipse in April.
During the twilight zone, temperatures, light and wind will fluctuate,

THE KANSAS INFORMER
BALTIMORE, Md. The collapse of the Francis Scott
Key Bridge in Baltimore on
Tuesday will likely upset the
flow of goods across the country reaching all the way to
Kansas.
The
collapse,
which
occurred after a cargo ship
struck one of the bridges
southern piers, resulted in the
immediate closure of the Port
of Baltimore. U.S. Secretary of
Transportation Pete Buttigieg
said a major and protracted
impact to supply chains is
imminent, implying that indef-
inite disruptions to the flow
of American goods, including
agricultural equipment to the
Midwest through Atlantic
waters will occur.
The Port of Baltimore is
a major shipping hub that
ranked 10th in dry bulk tonnage handling in 2021 per a
2024 Bureau of Transportation
Statistics report on port performance. On Tuesday, President
Joe Biden called it one of the
most important elements for
the economy and the quality of life in the Northeast.

and these environmental shifts
can initiate reactions from animals.
The biggest response well
see is the onset of evening patterns, Aguilar said.
For nocturnal animals, they
may think its time for their
evening activities to begin.
Animals like opossums, bats
and owls may emerge from
their daytime resting places.
Crickets, whippoorwills and
frogs might begin their evening
chorus of chirps and songs.
For diurnal (daytime active)
animals, the eclipse could signal that its bedtime. So birds
might fly into trees and chickens might settle into their
coops to roost for the night.
Bees could return to their
hives, and barnyard animals
like horses and cows may start
moving toward their stables.
Even exotic animals may
respond to the changing cosmic patterns. Aguilar said
there are case examples from
zoos where baboons were seen
huddling together and remaining highly vigilant during an
eclipse, while giraffes and elephants began approaching the
entrance of their enclosures.
The environmental changes
from an eclipse can also influence pet behavior. Dogs who
get anxious during storms may
associate the sudden loss of
sunlight with adverse weather.
Although animals may behave
a bit differently during an
eclipse, they arent likely to be
harmed by looking up at it.
Experts caution against
looking at any sun phenomena without eye protection.
Instructions and methods of
viewing the eclipse are available at www.science.nasa.gov

Who is our Father?
Jesus Father is our Father.
Everything from Genesis to
Revelation points forward to
Jesus. When God instituted the
Passover in Egypt, the blood on
the sides and top of the door
frames represented a sacrificial
death, in this case of a lamb,
which pointed forward to the
ultimate sacrifice of
Christ on the cross. By the time
we get to the New Testament
the sacrificial system had
ceased because temple worship
as it was practiced in the Old
Testament had ceased and had
been replaced by a set of rules
and regulations laid down by
the Sanhedrin, the highest
ruling body and court of justice among the Jewish people
in the time of Jesus.
This
was a flawed man made system
which favored the elite of Israel
and persecuted the poor.
Through all this God
remained on his throne,
manipulating people and circumstances to bring glory to
his name. It is this glory for
themselves that those outside
the family of God so cherish.
It would have been completely
fair for God to have abandoned
mankind after the fall that took
place in the garden when Adam
and Eve transgressed the only
command God placed on them.
However God chose to ulti-
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
mately save man from himself
by providing the ultimate sacrifice of his Son establishing for
himself a kingdom. In Daniel
2:44 we read of the prophecy of
a kingdom which shall never
be destroyed. All attempts by
man to date to supersede God
have failed and will continue to
fail up to the establishment of
Gods true kingdom. The death
and resurrection of Christ on
the cross set in motion a path
for man that leads to the adoption of believers into this kingdom.
Jesus called God Father
and taught his disciples to do
the same. The Lords prayer
begins Our Father. When
we speak these words we are
expressing a nearness to God
and placing our total trust in
him. The death and resurrection of Christ unleashed the
kingdom of God in full power
which will climax with the
return of Jesus for his church.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 2, 2024
OPINION
Protect dysphoric kids from Gov. Kelly
Sometime this week, possibly by the time
this newspaper hits the street, Kansas Governor
Laura Kelly will have vetoed a bill designed to
stop abusive parents from paying diabolical
medical professionals to surgically mutilate the
genitals of and chemically retard the normal
sexual development of children under 18 who
have a mental condition known in medical circles as gender dysphoria.
At least that was the medical diagnosis for the
condition until modern leftist culture mandated
the professional crucifixion of any doctor or
researcher who refused to accept this illness as a
protected entitlement for a newly popular alternate sexuality group pursuing the social benefits
of proclaimed victimhood.
The governors doubtless impending veto,
which hopefully will be subject to an override
in the Kansas Legislature, comes on the heels of
national furor this past weekend over President
Joe Biden designating and confirming Easter
Sunday a few days ago as the National Day of
Trans Visibility. This redundant day of recognition has been pushed by the alt-sex community since 2009, but Biden is the first president
ever to use the chief executives bully pulpit to
promote it.
Rarely in political circles has such an extreme
position garnered so much awareness at the
behest of the anti-traditional members of the
progressive left, and never has such a position
been embraced and promoted by a sitting U.S.
president. Bidens move is yet another clear
illustration of the degree to which his originally promoted moderate, centrist position the
adult in the room compared to Donald Trump
were little more than a smoke screen obscuring
his obedience to the most radical elements of
modern American society.
One can easily make the assumption regarding Kellys impending veto of the anti-child
abuse measure in SB233 because Kelly herself
is a microcosm of the incompetence and subterfuge of the Biden presidency. Kelly still admonishes Republicans and claims her position as
middle of the road, even as she throws Kansas
womens rights under the bus in her attempts to
thwart laws preventing men from competing in
their sports. She followed the lockstep template
of the nations Covid reactionaries for a near
total shutdown of her state and tried to force a
useless mask mandate statewide. Only action
by Republicans in the legislature ended Kellys
disastrous and elongated reopening plan and
scuttled her authoritarian chokehold to put the

state on the path to normal again.
Kellys veto will come not only as a contradiction to common sense and morality but
also in the face of overwhelming medical data
that repudiates any value in such surgical and
chemical measures. Studies show individuals
who have undergone what proponents paradoxically refer to as gender-affirming medical
care are no less likely to show symptoms of
depression and mental illness and no less likely
to engage in self-harm like suicide. In fact, the
lifetime of physical complications associated
with such measures hormonal imbalances and
never- healing open wounds requiring constant
manipulation and treatment are more likely to
contribute to depression and anxiety.
The absurd notion that such measures can
be somehow beneficial for anyone much less
gender confused children negates logic not to
mention parental responsibility. People suffering from gender dysphoria need mental health
treatment, not irreversible surgical or chemical
castration. The fact that leftist-indulging popular culture has pursued extortion measures
to force compliance from business, media, education and government sectors to herald this
horror as some kind of a noble pursuit of civil
rights is preposterous and immoral.
The final illuminating contradiction of course
is revealed in this blatant disregard for the physical and mental health of dysphoria afflicted
Kansans, all while Governor Kelly lobbies for
Medicaid expansion under the guise of bringing
the benefits of health insurance to more residents of the state.
Once again, it is up to the Kansas Legislature
to protect the states residents from the unscrupulous, ignorant and follow-the-leader actions of
Kansas chief executive.###

Im female and identify with the policies of the
Republican Party. Im so sick of being called a
Nazi by the left and especially by the first lady
of the Biden crime syndicate. This so-called
educator is married to and supports the biggest
promoter of slavery since the Civil War. Biden
brings in his millions of illegals and demands
their allegiance at the ballot box. Some 87,000
young illegal boys and girls are being enslaved
somewhere in America. Where are they and
whats being done to them? Where is Bidens
100% support of Israel? I think we know who
are the real Nazis here. The Democrats are only
fooling themselves in this real dictatorship.
As usual Trump supporters are misinformed

NBC proves old fashioned balance in news a fairy tale
Trying to get a balanced view of the news
has been scrutinized for years with those on
the right claiming left wing bias in coverage.
Of course, the left outright denies the claim
believing that networks like NBC, CBS, NBC
and CNN shoot down the middle.
They are correct if they see the two sides as
liberal and progressive. They balance those
priorities well.
But if the goal is to be balanced between
liberal and conservative views, they fail miserably and harm true journalists who really
do shoot it straight.
NBC management recently attempted
to provide some balance to its news coverage by hiring Republican Ronna McDaniel
who recently stepped down as chair of the
National Republican Party. It was a decent
move to attempt to appear fair.
But the talking heads at NBC wouldnt
have it.
On air, they revolted, criticizing their
own management and trashing McDaniel as
a supporter of The big lie, which form
the liberal point of view means anyone who
questions anything about the 2020 election.
Forget the fact that multiple Democrats called
Donald Trump an illegitimate president for
four years, which might be considered a big
lie, they simply could not co-exist with anyone who sees the world differently than their
socialist, big government view.
Their viewpoint is actually more important
than the financial health of their business.
According to adweek.com, FOX News dom-
KANSAS COMMENTARY
EARL WATT, THE LEADER & TIMES
inates the ratings, but even when reporting
the absolute domination of FOX, the headline
for their ratings story for March 25 read,
MSNBC and CNN tie for second in daily
demo.
Never mind who is No. 1. We will focus on
who is No. 2, and it is a tie.
According to Nielsen ratings, FOX News
has the nine top news programs, and MSNBC
has the 10th.
The top-watched news program is The Five
on FOX News, and while most of the voices are
conservative, the show features Democratic
views from Democrats.
The other networks rarely do that if at all,
and thats why they have seen a decline in
viewership.
NBC, which is also MSNBC might want to
rename the National Broadcasting Company
to the National Democratic Company, because
the outrage from their on-air personalities
simply would not allow any other views from
being shared.
And management caved.
From Chuck Todd to Rachel Maddow, they
rejected allowing McDaniel on the air, believing themselves to be morally superior when
it comes to opining on the happenings of the
government.
And therein lies the real sin. Any time
anyone feels morally superior to views shared
by half the entire nation, and are supposed to
be representative of the whole, they fall short
of the ability to welcome alternatives to their
own messaging.
Whats worse is they own the microphone.
Think of it like church. The pastor has
access to the pulpit, and only the pastor has
access to the pulpit.
Sermons are not debates or discussions.
They are given by the pastor to the entire congregation. Should the privilege be abused, and
members of the congregation feel as though
they are being abused by the pastors message, they have no recourse.
This is no different with the media only
presenting one side of politics. Without the
ability for an opposing viewpoint, the audience is left to believe what is being shared is
supposedly fair.
To them, big government is a religion. To
them, our rights are given to us by our govern-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
if everyone were to work 20% less without
becoming any more productive, GDP would
decline by 20%. The pie would shrink, even
though Sanders is saying everyones slice
would — impossibly — be just as big.
Its certainly true that Americans work
more than people in other countries. France
has a much-vaunted 35-hour workweek,
although that stricture only applies to blue-collar workers. Still, France works less than
we do, and — in a sign that basic economic
laws arent so easily suspended — its workers
make less money. The average net disposable
household income in France, according to The
Week magazine, is $34,375 a year, whereas it is
$51,147 in the U.S.
If Sanders were being honest and werent
a socialist, hed say he has a great deal for
Americans — they can work less and become
poorer. There probably wouldnt be many
takers.
Fascist Democrat insurrectionist mobs
burned communities across the country,
assaulted and injured thousands and murdered dozens, all incited by Democrat race
baiting lies. They attacked the White House,
injuring hundreds and forced the evacuation
of President Trump and his family. But the
DOJ has not charged anyone in that, while
relentlessly targeting only the overwhelmingly peaceful January 6th protesters who
caused no serious injuries or major damage.
There was however a capitol police officer,
William F. Evans, who was murdered shortly
afterward by a Democrat Trump hating black
supremacist Noah Green. But that was quickly sent down the memory hole.
Trump attended the funeral by family invitation of New York officer Jonathan Miller,
shot dead by two thugs with long violent
records repeatedly released back onto the
streets by anti-police Democrat procriminal
policies. Trump paid off the widows mortgage. At the same time nearby, Biden and
Clinton, both credibly accused rapists, and
Obama, held a gaudy campaign party where
Hollywood freaks like Stephen Colbert and
Lizzo entertained Democrat billionaires who
shelled out $26 million for Biden, all protected
by a huge police force prevented from attending their fellow fallen officers wake.
Anybody that does business with the Chinese
government is a traitor. Youre selling our
resources from our country and that includes
the guy supposedly in the White House thats
the president but it also goes to the local people around here that do business in China.
While Christians across the globe celebrate
the resurrection of Jesus Christ this Easter
Sunday, the destructionist Democrats and
Joe Biden passed a mandate that our savior
share this sacred day with transgenders. The
White House has now made Easter Sunday
National Transgender Visibility Day. Evil
marches on.
The White Houses artistic Easter Egg contest
prohibited the use of religious themes in the
childrens designs.
Ill admit I eas skeptival about Trump but
looking back he seemed to elevate the country
and things were going in a positive direction.
With Biden it feels were oppressed. Hes
killed the economic future and safety of our
country.
SEE WATT ON PAGE 10
The 4-day work week: Work less, and enjoy being poorer
Karl Marx would be proud. Bernie Sanders
has proposed taking another step toward the
philosophers envisioned utopia by proposing
to mandate a four-day workweek.
Marx wrote how in communist society,
workers would be liberated to hunt in the
morning, fish in the afternoon, raise cattle
in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I
have in mind, without ever becoming hunter,
fisherman, shepherd or critic.
Needless to say, thats not how communism
turned out. Yet the belief that work is basically a capitalist imposition that is unnatural
and bad for people still holds sway on the
left, and Sanders is, accordingly, proposing to
move from a 40-hour to a 32-hour workweek to
make us healthy, wealthy and wise.
It is time to reduce the stress level in our
country and allow Americans to enjoy a better
quality of life, the Vermont socialist insists.
It is time for a 32-hour workweek with no loss
in pay.
The last clause is the key one. If everyone
can work less and produce and earn exactly
the same, why not? And if this is possible, why
stop at four days a week? Itd be positively
cruel to make someone work four days when
they can work three days with the same outcomes.
Of course, the promise that we can work
less and make the same is the socialist equivalent of Mexico will pay for the border wall.
Its not just promising a free lunch, but a free
breakfast, lunch and dinner, with room service delivering a late-night snack gratis.
What we earn is not an arbitrary number,
but is linked to what we produce. To simplify,
U.S. on taxpayers money. Fact check it for
details. Trump was not denied a jury trial
his lawyers did not ask for one. Trumps
talk of Chinese tariffs came 9 days after
Democratic Senators were pushing for higher tariffs. Trumps former tarrifs reduced
incomes in the U.S. as well as adversely affected Republicans. Truth and decency have no
value to him.
Sanders complains that American workers
are 400% more productive than they were
in the 1940s, yet they are still working long
hours. Over time, though, we have worked
less. In 1830, the average working week was
more than 70 hours, and over the course of the
next century, it dropped by almost half.
If we were all content with 1940s living
standards, maybe we could go all the way and
adopt a two-day workweek. From a 21st-century perspective, though, returning to 1940s-era
housing, plumbing, technology, transportation and health care would feel like impoverishment, and it would be.
What Sanders misses, as economics writer David Bahnsen argues in his new book
Full Time: Work and the Meaning of Life,
is that work is good for us, indeed an inherent part of the human condition. Moreover,
the problem isnt that Americans work too
much, but that too many Americans arent
working at all. Noting the long-term decline
in labor-force participation, Bahnsen points
out that if the participation rate were the
same as it was in 2000, an additional 10 million
Americans would be working, with a concomitant increase in goods and services.
In short, the Sanders idea is a frank expression of economic illiteracy. Instead of working
so hard to propose and publicize such baldly
ludicrous ideas, itd be better for everyone if
the senator found more time for leisure pursuits and resolved to put in fewer hours on the
job.

The only thing I
know is that most
of the iron is from
horse-drawn farm
machinery and
from horse harnesses.
Right now Im getting awfully

which was located at the mouth
of the port, took five years
to construct in the mid-1970s
and was recognized as a significant engineering achievement as it could accommodate local traffic over the busy
harbor.
Case/IH, John Deere,
Caterpillar, Massey Ferguson,
Komatsu and other brands
of farm equipment as well as
automobiles widely used in
Kansas are shipped through
the roll-on/roll-off facilities at
the Port of Baltimore.
The closure of the Port of
Baltimore could negatively affect Kansas farmers.
NBC reported that according
to data from DAT Freight &
Analytics, Baltimore is the
largest entry point in the U.S.
for large agriculture and construction equipment like tractors, farming combines, forklifts, bulldozers and heavy-duty trucks that are bound for
the Midwest. These pieces of
equipment are necessary components of the planting, growing, and harvesting seasons
and are crucial for increasing
efficiencies and negating losses. According to Maryland
Governor Wes Moore, the port
processed a record 1.3 million
tons of large equipment last
year.
Main ag product categories shipped through the port
include sugar, soybeans, grain
(corn & soybeans), coffee and
grocery items. Writing for the
Farm Progress website, reporter Chris Torres quoted USDA
figures and noted the port was
a relatively small player in
this area, at least compared to
larger ports like New Orleans
which handled more than 40
million metric tons of soybeans in 2021.
An interruption in the normal passage of roll-on/rolloff (wheeled and/or driven)
cargo into the U.S. may also
increase shipping costs. As
major equipment is diverted to
other ports, particularly in the
south, congestion may inflate
transit times via delays which
automatically inflates costs.
Even ports located nearer to
the Midwest may be unable to
efficiently distribute goods to
adequately service farmers.
Since only a small number
of American ports, including
Baltimores, are capable of processing roll-on/roll-off cargo,
the emphasis on the broader
economic repercussions of the
collapse of the Francis Scott
Key Bridge is substantial. In
addition to large equipment,
the Port of Baltimore is a
major handler of automobile
brands like Nissan, Toyota,
and General Motors; agricultural products like sugar, salt,
gypsum, and fertilizers; and
some paper and wood products, according to research by
Reuters. Local truck traffic has
already become a point of concern for the City of Baltimore
as hazardous materials are
being shipped on atypical
routes.

Presentation explores
the legacy of railroads
The
Garnett
Public
Library in Garnett, Kansas
will host Railroaded:
The Industry that Shaped
Kansas, a presentation and
discussion by Leo E. Oliva
on Wednesday, April 10th,
2024 at 10:00 a.m. in the
Archer Room at the library.
Members of the community
are invited to attend the free
program. Contact the Garnett
Public Library at 785-4483388 for more information.
The program is made possible by Humanities Kansas.
Few industries dominated
the economy of the nation
in the 19th century more
than the railroad. Railroads
brought immigrant settlers,
created jobs, and fed beef
markets in the East. They
enabled regular mail service
and the adoption of standard
time. Most Kansas towns
were founded because of the
railroad, and few survived
without it. Yet the advancement of the railroad industry came at a significant cost
to the Plains Indians who
were forcibly displaced by
this westward expansion.

those sentences run consecutively, arguing that the vulnerability of the young victims
and defendants conduct was
excessively brutal in particular to one victim, and that the
defendant as the grandfather

sentences imposed, some consecutive and some concurrent,
This presentation examines
the complicated legacy of
railroads and the impact on
native peoples who called
Kansas home.
Leo Oliva is a historian

19th-century Kansas. He is
the author of Soldiers on the
Santa Fe Trail, six books for
the Kansas Fort Series, and
a founding member of the
Santa Fe Trail Association
and Fort Larned Old Guard.
Railroads are the key to
understanding the development of Kansas, said Oliva.

was that no one would listen to

work of the Anderson County

investigation as well as the victims for their courage in testifying in the case.

Chapter Y P.E.O. met in March
The Richmond Museum was
the gathering place for members of Chapter Y P.E.O. On
March 18, 2024. Elaine Dunbar
and Dorothy Miller were hostesses and served delicious
refreshments as members
arrived.
The Richmond community
museum committee purchased
the old lumber yard building
in 2005 and have slowly turned
the space into a place of local
history with many special
exhibits.
Pat Vining, Docent, shared
many of the stories. Family
of George Putnam, Rhodes
Scholar from Richmond, previously owned the lumber yard.
Mark Hart, from the Scipio area
was wounded in France during
WWI. His uniform is one of
the special exhibits. David
Scoop McLise wrote a book
about about his experience in
a leaking Navy submarine. He
was one of thirty-three crew
members saved by using a diving bell that was untested for
submarine rescues. Mary Hall
has art hanging in the museum and there are antique telephones, wash tubs, and a civil
war era bayonet. Community
family history archives are an
ongoing project and asset to
the museum. Research is carefully done by Dennis Peters.
Museums always remind us
that we are connected to the
past through family and community.
Rita Boydston, president,
presided over the Chapter
Y business meeting. Denise
Weber, chaplain,
shared
Proverbs 3:5 in a meditation
on Decisions and led group in
prayer. Seventeen members
answered roll call. The P.E.O.
Spring Fling will be held in
Humboldt on Saturday, April 6.
Election of officers was as
follows:
President, Alice
Anderegg; Vice President, Rita
Boydston; Secretary, Connie
Fagg; Treasurer, Deanna
Wolken; Chaplain, Denise
Weber; Guard, Alice Canavan;
and Delegate, Sonya Martin.
Diane Doran presided over the
installation of the new officers.
The next meeting will be in
the home of Alice Anderegg
on April 1, with Stacy Gwin
serving as co-hostess. High
school student applications for
the P.E.O. scholarship will be
reviewed and voted on.

mental leaders. And as their
spokesman, like a pastor, they
spread the faith rather than
the news. They see themselves
as developing disciples, not of
informing the masses on both
sides of the political spectrum.
They dont believe in a political spectrum. There is what
they believe and everything
else is evil.
Its a cult of control, and as
long as they have it, your job is
to listen and obey, not to question and hold accountable.
But you arent blindly following them, and they hate you
for it. The presidential polls
are evidence that the media is
being rejected.
They claim Trump will be
a dictator, but the public saw
him serve as president for four
years and never did he use
the Department of Justice to
charge is political rivals. They
hear the media focus on 80-plus
charges against Trump, and yet
Trump leads the polls.
Do they learn from this?
No. They double down.
Trump is trying to destroy
democracy.
Funny, Trump isnt trying
to keep anyone off the ballot.
Democrats are, from Trump to
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Isnt
that how you destroy democracy?
If Trump wins, we will
never have another election.
Well Trump won in 2016. And
there was an election in 2020.
Hmm.
We cant air Trump live
because he lies. And yet
MSNBC and all the rest pushed
the Russia hoax for four years,
and they tried to cover up
Hunter Bidens laptop. All of
this was done on air, and to this
day only the New York Times
offered any type of apology.
Not one television network has
done so.
State-run media is something we see in Russia and
other communist nations. But
in America, the pro-government media is done on its own
so you wont know the truth
about inflation, crime, illegal
immigration and diplomatic
failures across the globe that
have led to conflict.
They believe in their superiority more than your right
to know. And the firing of
McDaniel after one weekend
proves it.
Welcome to the team!

BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights boys baseball team
continued their hot start sweeping a doubleheader against
Jayhawk-Linn Monday, March
25.
In the opening game, the
Vikings knocked off the
Jayhawks 6-1.
Jayhawk-Linn was limited
to two hits in the game and
scored their only run in the
first inning without picking
up a hit. The Jayhawks first
batter reached on a dropped
3rd strike, then a sacrifice bunt
and a ground out manufactured
the run.
Central Heights also scored
one in the first and finally
broke the game open with 1 run
in the fourth, 2 runs in both the
5th and 6th innings.
The Vikings were the benefactors of some sloppy defensive play, scoring 6 runs off just
3 hits as the Jayhawks committed 3 errors which lead to 4
unearned runs.
Brylan Sommer was the
starting pitcher and went 3 2/3
innings, allowed just 1 hit, 0
earned runs and struck out 9.
Laiken Brockus picked up
the win in relief going the final
3 1/3 innings, allowing 1 hit
and striking out 8 Jayhawk hitters.
The second game of the doubleheader wasnt a thing of
beauty defensively for either
team.
Central Heights won the
game 14-7, but the 21 combined
runs were scored on just 13 hits
and 12 errors. Each team commited 6 errors which lead to
12 of the 21 runs in the contest
being unearned.
Caswell gave his Vikings an
early 3-1 lead with an inside
2-run homerun in the opening
inning.
After falling behind 1-0
early, the Vikings reeled off 10
straight runs en route to the

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
OVERLAND PARK – The
Vikings coach Troy Prosser
knows to be the best, one must
beat the best and that is exactly what the Central Heights
Vikings set out to do as they
sent a group of 4 guys to the
Shawnee Mission South Relays
in Overland Park last week.
The talented quartet of
juniors that competed were
Connor
Burkdoll,
Cody
Hammond, Christian McCord
and Owen Miller.
They comprised the 4×800
relay team that finished in
8:21.35 and finished in 2nd
place overall.
Hammond also ran the 800
meter run and finished in 5th
place with a time of 1:59.79
Burkdoll ran the 3200 meter
as well, finishing in 19th place
with a time of 10:03.24 which
they continued the race to a
standard two mile distance as
well with a time of 10:16.56, also
finishing 19th.
They also ran another
unique race that is rarely ran
in Kansas anymore, the 4×1600
meter relay.
They would finish in 3rd
place with a time of 18:43.74,
breaking a school record set
back in 1996. The previous best
time was 19:56.
This was one of our primary focuses on the day,
head coach Troy Prosser stated about topping the school
record.
The Relays was the only
meet we could find that ran the
race.
Its really a great start to the
season for this talented group.
Their 4×800 time was about
the same time as they were at
Regionals last year and it came
in the opening event of the season.

6 innings, allowed 5 hits and
