Man arrested for DUI enroute
to pick up child from school
Police chief says
driver was more than
three times over legal
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A local man is
expected to face charges in
Garnett Municipal Court in
November after police say he
drove to a Garnett school to
pick up his child with blood
alcohol more than three
times the legal limit.
The charge was filed
against Hunter Allen Hill,
23 of Garnett, in connection
with the October 15 incident.
He was also charged with
transporting an open container of alcohol.
Garnett Police Chief Kurt
King said city officers conducted a traffic stop 3:00
PM at the corner of Maple
Street and Home Run Drive
near the entrance to Garnett
Elementary
School. He

Statewide forging scam hits local businesses
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City police
believe local businesses
which were scammed in a
recent rash of forged checks
may have been part of a far
broader theft ring which hit
11 law enforcement jurisdictions and scooped up $24,000
in stolen goods.
Garnett police chief Kurt
King told city commissioners and a weekly report submitted to city administrator Travis Wilson the local
thefts became apparent after
the department investigated
an apparent forgery at Ace

Countys homecoming Friday night in Garnett.
Hardware in Garnett.
Following an investigation it was found that other
local businesses had also
been victims of the same
crimes committed by the
same individuals, King said
in the report. During the
course of the instigation we
discovered that the suspects
had traveled all over Kansas
committing the same crime
in 11 other jurisdictions and
exceeding $24,000 in thefts
from retail stores using
forged checks.
Identities of the suspects
were not immediately available.
Fraud involving paper
checks typically exploits
weak points in the payment
chain: checks are physical,
they carry pre-printed routing/account numbers on the
MICR line, and signatures
are often accepted without real-time verification.
Criminals exploit that fact by
using stolen checks, altering
legitimate checks, counterfeiting checks, or producing
fake checks that look legitimate. They then try to cash
or deposit those checks and
either withdraw funds quickly or move them through

Dont make Bambi your hood ornament this fall
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT As the fall months arrive
and the mating season for whitetail deer
commonly referred to as the rut
ramps up across eastern Kansas, motorists are being cautioned of a heightened
danger on many rural and semi-rural
roadways.
Law officers and insurance agents in
and around Anderson County will tell
you deer are a threat year round, but
local deer hunters say the cool patch of
recent weather means the ruts not far
off usually landing in earnest around
the first of November.
During this time of year, deer are
more active, less predictable and more
likely to cross or dart into traffic with
potentially serious consequences.
According to the Kansas Department
of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP), deer-vehicle collisions climb during the rut due to
three key factors:
During the rut (which peaks in
mid-November in Kansas) deer travel
farther than usual, pursuing mates and
moving through unfamiliar terrain.
Shorter daylight hours mean dawn
and dusk (when deer are most active)
overlap with heavy commuter traffic.
Leaves are falling and crop harvest is
underway in many rural counties, altering deer movement patterns and pushing
them closer to roadways. The result:
a seasonal spike in collisions between
vehicles and deer. Experts urge drivers
to reduce speed in known deer-crossing areas, pay extra attention during
dawn/dusk, and avoid swerving if a deer
appears suddenly.
The numbers in Kansas
Statewide data make clear that this
is not a minor issue according to the
Kansas Highway Patrols summary of
deer-crash statistics:
In 2019, Kansas logged
11,208 deer-related crashes, of which 4 were fatal,
and 573 people were
injured.
In 2020:
9,680 crashes; 4 fatal; 565
injured.
In 2022: 10,033 crashes;
6 fatal; 575 injured.
In 2023: 10,648 crashes;
5 fatal accidents; 7 fatalities; 658 injured.
Those numbers show
drivers in Kansas face
thousands of deer-related
collisions each year, and
while fatalities are relatively rare, the human
and property-damage toll

2025 marks 10th year of decline for Kansas ACTs
BY PATRICK RICHARDSON THE SENTINEL COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA ACT scores for 2025
were released this week, showing yet another decline for college-bound Kansas students and
hitting a new all-time low.
The composite score dropped
from 19.3 to 19.1, with only 17%
of Kansas graduates scoring well
enough to be considered college-ready in English, Reading,
Math, and Science.
The Kansas Department of
Education has made no public comment about the declines
so far, despite the results being
released while the State Board
of Education was in session on
Wednesday.
ACT scores and college readiness have been on a steady
decline since 2015, when Kanas
Education Commissioner Randy
Watson convinced the State Board
of Education to implement his
Kansans Can initiative that
de-emphasized academic improvement over social-emotional learning. The Kansans Can tagline
is Kansas leads the world in the
success of every student, but Dave
Trabert, CEO of Kansas Policy
Institute and the Sentinel, says
the 10-year ACT decline may qualify Watson for leading the world
in the decline of student success.
Kansas
Education

overemphasis
on
so-called
social-emotional learning, or
SEL, has led to a 10-year drop
in educational outcomes all
while spending has skyrocketed
according to an editorial by
Kansas Policy Institute CEO Dave
Trabert. He says ACTs definition
of college-readiness is having a
75% chance of getting a C on an
entry-level course, which means
many graduates who went to
trade school, community college,

The Bible does not
attempt to prove the existence of God. Genesis 1:1
begins at creation, In
the beginning God created the heavens and the
earth. The only thing we
can assume from this text
is that God is the creator
of all things. God is then
self-existent, that is he does
not depend on anything
for his existence. As part
of Gods creation we need
air to breathe, food, water
and many other things to
exist. God does not have
these limitations we as
humans possess. In short
God does not need us, however we need God or our
existence would end. As
Christians we accept this
by faith. Faith is being
sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do
not see. (Hebrews 1:1)
As creator God has
many attributes we do not
possess. He is all-knowing,
ever present, all powerful
and unchanging. If there
ever was a time God did
not exist, nothing would
exist today. If you take
nothing into a laboratory
it is hard to come out with
anything. If you feel you
must understand this intellectually this will be a hard
sell. Faith cannot be tied to
an intellectual understanding. Even if you could put
faith into an equation the
critical change that needs
to take place is not getting
it into your head but into
your heart.
Now we are told that God
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
is spirit. As such he is
invisible. The Bible refers
to God having certain
things that we as humans
have, hands, feet, arms so
that we can associate God
with his creation. In John
14:9 Jesus makes this clarifying statement to his apostles when they ask him to
see the Father. Anyone
who has seen me has seen
the Father. Jesus is the
visible manifestation of the
invisible God.
I do not
believe God will always be
invisible to us. If we read
Matthew 5:8 Jesus makes
the statement. Blessed are
the pure in heart for they
will see God. Because my
heart and your heart are
not pure God cannot reveal
his glory to us. However
when our salvation is complete and we enter eternity
I believe in my heart we
will see God in all of his
magnificence. Thus can
there be anything greater
to possess than faith?
Ministry on the
Holiness of God.

track.
The first few records
for KISS were slow starters, though their 1975 third
album, Dressed to Kill,
included the song thats
now most indelibly associated with the band, Rock
and Roll All Nite. The
popularity of that song was
hammered home with their
1975 double live album,
Alive! which included a
concert version of the track.
Alive! represented a
breakthrough for the band,
and when they followed it
in 1976 with Destroyer,
they had truly arrived. It
included the hits Shout it
Out Loud, Detroit Rock
City, and Beth, as well
as another Frehley co-composition, Flaming Youth.
In 1977, Frehley took his
first shot at lead vocals,
singing Shock Me on the
album Love Gun. The following year, all four members released their debut
solo albums simultaneously. Frehleys self-titled contribution outsold the other
three, and it included the
modestly successful single
New York Groove.
When KISS reconvened
in 1979 for the album
Dynasty, Frehleys vocals
were more prominent than
ever. He sang lead on three
songs, the Rolling Stones
cover 2,000 Man as well
as two tracks he penned,
Hard Times and Save
Your Love. But the bands
popularity was waning,
and Frehley was becoming
frustrated with the direction he saw KISS taking.
Increasingly, he stepped
back from working with
KISS until he officially left
the band in 1982, the year
before they famously began
performing out of makeup.
Frehley began assembling his own band,
Frehleys Comet, releasing their self-titled debut
album in 1987. He wrote or
co-wrote many of the songs
on the album while sharing
lead vocal duties with keyboardist and guitarist Tod
Howarth. Frehleys Comet
released a second album
before Frehley returned
to recording solo albums,
most recently releasing the
2024 LP 10,000 Volts.
In
1995,
Frehley
rejoined KISS for an MTV
Unplugged appearance.
This led to a 1996 reunion
tour, featuring the bands
original lineup. He made
minor contributions to the
1998 KISS album Psycho
Circus, then embarked
on a 200001 tour with the
KISSs Frehley, legendary rock guitarist, passes away
Ace Frehley, the guitarist, singer, and songwriter
whose rocking guitar licks
drove the iconic sounds of
KISS, died October 16, 2025,
in Morristown, New Jersey.
He died after a recent fall at
the age of 74.
Frehley
was
The
Spaceman of KISS, choosing silver stars and stylized black lipstick as his
signature makeup design.
He was an indispensable
part of KISS explosive
stage shows, wielding special-effects guitars that
emitted smoke and flames,
blasted off pyrotechnics, or
pulsed light in tempo with
the music. And his guitar,
vocals, and songwriting
were all over the bands
sound, blending with the
work of his bandmates to
create a heavy metal style
that continues to influence
rock music.
His former bandmates
remembered him after his
death in a statement that
said in part, He was an
essential and irreplaceable
rock soldier during some
of the most formative foundational chapters of the
band and its history. He is
and will always be a part of
KISSs legacy.
Born
Paul
Daniel
Frehley in the Bronx, New
York City, he began teaching himself to play guitar as
a young teen. He played in
local bands in high school,
but it wasnt until he was 21
that he found his way to the
band that would make him
famous. He came across
an ad in the Village Voice,
looking for a guitar player with flash and ability.
His audition was a success,
and he and Paul Stanley,
Gene Simmons, and Peter
Criss formed KISS in 1973.
Frehley decided to go by
his school nickname, Ace,
to avoid confusion with
Stanley.
Within a few months of
their formation, the members of KISS had begun
painting their faces in
the stylized kabuki-type
designs that would become
iconic. Later that year,
they secured a record contract, releasing their self-titled debut album in 1974.
Though KISS didnt produce any major hit singles,
it did include songs that
are now considered among
their classics Strutter,
Nothin to Lose, Black
Diamond and it included
the first song Frehley wrote
for the band, Cold Gin.
He didnt yet feel confident
about his own vocals, so
Simmons sang lead on the

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Thursday, October 23, 2025
Fun-loving Commies behind No Kings
Considering the philosophys last hundred years record of murder and oppression, there was a time when Communist
influence funding your American organization would have been seen as, well… sort
of a bad thing.
New revelations about the repetitive
and earnestly pointless No Kings protests last weekend and their documented Commie ties are proving that for
Democrats and other Leftist Trump haters
Communism is cool.
Commies even put their logo on the
sponsor list of the nearby Franklin County
Action Network flyer pimping their antiTrump protest over the weekend. Viva
Stalin! Viva Mao! Viva Putin! Viva
Schumer!
But whos really surprised? What was
billed by the decaying mainstream media
as spontaneous public dissent to try to
show mass revolt against Trump has
instead revealed signs of orchestration
and fundingby ideological adversaries
of our republic. Commies have always
been commies, and they still are.
Just for funsies, lets take a Peabody
and Sherman Way Back Machine jaunt
through the madcap hilarity that is
Communism, the new bankrollers of the
Franklin County Action Network and
so many others across the anti-Trump
American Kingdom.
Following
the
1917
Bolshevik
Revolution, Lenin and later Stalin built
a one-party state rooted in MarxismLeninism. The system eliminated private
property, centralized agriculture and
industry, and relied on mass terror to
enforce ideological conformity. There was
the Red Terror of 1918-1922 The Cheka
secret police executed and imprisoned
hundreds of thousands of political opponents, clergy and landowners to annihilate
Bolshevik opposition (later theyd start
whacking each other when they ran out of
enemies, just to keep terror in the system).
Then there was forced collectivation and
the Holodomor 1929-1933 Stalins agricultural collectivization caused famine
across the USSR most infamously in
Ukraine. Then Stalins Great Purge
the systematic trial and execution of other
commie party members, military leaders,
intellectuals, scientists anybody Old Joe
saw as a threat. Roughly 18 million people
were cycled through Russian Gulags, and
up to two million Russians died.
Experts estimate the death toll from
political oppression and communist policy
failure from Lenin through Gorbachev at
between 10 and 20 million souls.
The fun doesnt stop there. Mao
Zedongs land reform murdered landowners and class enemies from 19491953 1 to 2 million dead. Then forced
industrialization and collectivization
which led to the worst famine in human
history. Then the Cultural Revolution
that unleashed youth Red Guards to purge
the bourgeois and another couple of
million countrymen killed. Tiananmen
Square Massacre of 1989 no one knows
how many died. Total ChiCom murders:
40-60 million Chinese killed through executions, famine and imprisonment.
And dont forget Indochina. Remember
the Dominoe Theory the liberals all
laughed about? Cambodia under Pol Pot
and the Khmer Rouge and Vietnam under
Ho Chi Minh and his successors and Laos
under Pathet Lao altogether, chalk up
another 2-3 million Indochinese deaths

Bari Weiss faces off the intolerant Left at CBS
The seething over the news that
Paramount Skydance has purchased the
Free Press, making its founder, Bari
Weiss, the editor-in-chief of CBS News,
tells us a couple of things.
One, modern journalism has lurched
so far to the left that even centrist positions are now treated as heterodoxy.
Two, the gatekeepers of journalism are
incapable of hearing even mildly dissenting viewpoints without freaking out.
Their cultural supremacy is on the line.
Paramount Bets Digital Provocateur
Bari Weiss Can Re-Energize CBS News,
reads one Variety headline. The Left, you
see, doesnt see diversity of opinion as
disagreement but as a provocation.
What makes Weiss a provocateur? Its
difficult to tell. The two examples Variety
cited are recent Free Press articles. One
is headlined The Jews Are a Proxy for
a Far Bigger Political Fight, which is
about growing political antisemitism on
both the Left and Right, and the other,
The Most Ordinary Town in America,
is a public interest piece about the sensible residents of an Indiana town who
barely pay attention to social media.
Hardly offensive.
Anonymous critics in the Variety
piece feign concern about the possibility
that Weiss will attempt to set a cultural
or political agenda, rather than collecting and presenting facts, as if executives at major news networks havent
been bragging about setting the national

DAVID HARSANYI, THE FEDERALIST
conversation for decades. Do you know
how many public interest stories CBS
News runs about cultural trends? Many.
But, as Variety reports, the notoriously impartial rank and file over at CBS
News is concerned that Weiss, who tilts
toward the right, will drive away audiences who seek independent newsgathering. The CBS newsgathering operation
has been captured by a leftist bias for at
least 50 years. These days, it also engages
agitprop and the occasional creative editing to assist its preferred candidates.
It could use an injection of principles.
Weisss first email to CBS News staff
outlined 10 principles that will guide her
leadership of CBS News. Id love to hear
which one offends her critics.
Weiss only appears to be a purveyor of
heterodoxy because the Left has not only
lost its mind but its tolerance.
Now, Im not an expert on Weisss
ideological corpus, but she strikes me
as an old-fashioned left-tilting liberal, in
the best sense of the word. And yet she
is repeatedly referred to as a conservative. Why? For believing in neutral principles of free expression? For employing
the same journalistic standards to cover
President Donald Trump that one would
use to cover any other president? For
failing to depict social conservatives as
a bunch of slack-jawed yokels? By the
standards of the Lefts gatekeepers, the
majority of the nation is conservative.
But what if Weiss were right-tilting by
historical standards? Are they excluded
from holding executive jobs in legacy
media? They have been. The expectation
is that the media work to champion and
normalize the Lefts political and cultural values. In the rare instances a reporter offers even any innocuous pushback,
Democrats treat it as seditious behavior.
Just watch California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porters meltdown over an
innocuous question about her appealing
to Trump voters.
Youd think that those working at
the perennially last-place CBS News
would be excited to add some new voices
and perspectives to their team, perhaps
appealing to an audience beyond the
urban progressive Democrat. But attitudes have dramatically changed over
the past decade. When I worked at a
left-leaning newspaper in a large marSEE HARSANYI ON PAGE 10
The gonzo brilliance of Trumps Gaza diplomacy
The ceasefire now crowd finally got
its ceasefire, although not the way it
hoped.
Israel and Hamas have agreed to stop
the fighting in Gaza, while the terror
group will release all Israeli hostages in
exchange for Palestinian prisoners held
by Israel.
Theres always a chance the agreement falls apart. Still, it isnt creating
jubilation from all the people who have
been braying for Israel to end the war.
There are two reasons — one is that the
deal is favorable for Israel, and the other
is that the deals architect is a president
of the United States whom, the fiercest
advocates of a ceasefire hate.
If it holds, the agreement is the biggest
victory yet for Donald Trumps hyperactive, transactional diplomacy.
A lifetime of maneuvering for advantage in the real estate and media worlds
in New York City — searching for and
using every ounce of leverage — was
better preparation for high-level international diplomacy than if Trump had
spent a lifetime on the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee.
Whereas international opinion
believed we had to isolate and cut off
Israel, Trump armed the Jewish state,
bombed Iran and squeezed Qatar to bring
Hamas to heel — and it worked. The deal
is a tribute to avoiding the well-worn
ruts of Middle East diplomacy.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
As for Israel, it needed to find a way
out of a conflict that had become a PR
disaster. Getting the hostages back is
an important national goal, even if the
exchange is lopsided (these swaps always
are). Meanwhile, Israel will pull back to
an agreed-upon line, but still hold an estimated 53% of Gaza as a security buffer.
Even if things eventually go south again,
Israel has bought time by decimating
Hamas and significantly diminishing the
threats from Iran and Hezbollah.
It is certainly true that Phase 2 of the
deal, which is supposed to disarm Hamas
and establish a technocratic Palestinian
government in Gaza, will be much more
difficult to pull off. If it were to come to
fruition, though, it would be transformative for Israels security and for the lives
of Gazans.
we really to the point in this town we have
to put cops on the alleys to keep people from
stealing gravel? Thank you.
There will presumably be no speeches
at Hollywood awards ceremonies crediting Trump for his peace-making. Among
other things, theres too much cognitive
dissonance in saying, I think President
Trump is a dangerous fascist — but appreciate how bound and determined he is to
end conflicts around the world.
Trump is a gonzo version of standard
U.S. foreign policy. All American presidents want to make peace in the Middle
East, and all want, whether they say it or
not, to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Whats
different about Trump is his methods,
and his openness about seeking a call
from the Nobel committee.
A hallmark of his policymaking at
its best is an unwillingness to take no
for an answer, an unremitting sense of
urgency and a creativity that is considered unrealistic or reckless by conventional metrics. We saw it during his first
term with his success in securing the
border, with the historic achievement
of Operation Warp Speed and with the
Abraham Accords.
The reasonable man adapts himself
to the world, George Bernard Shaw
maintained, the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on
the unreasonable man.
In this sense, Trump is usefully unreaSEE LOWRY ON PAGE 7

Tagi is a male, 5-month-old Retriever/Chocolate Labrador
mix. He is brown and white in color and will be approx.
25-60lbs full grown. Hes a fun playmate to all dogs and
takes corrections well from older dogs. He enjoys his people too and never wants them to feel left out of his fun. Tagi
loves the water and would be a great lake companion or
help you with the hose and sprinklers. He is crate-trained
and runs to the back door when he has outside business to
do. Tagi would do best in a home with kids aged 8, because
of his bounciness. To learn more about Tagi and other dogs

band before returning to
his solo career.
Frehley famously took
his musicianship somewhat less seriously than
his bandmates would have
liked, indulging in vices
and not always bothering
to practice as frequently
as others. In a 1994 interview with Marc Allen,
he acknowledged this
while also giving himself
deserved credit for his
broad influence in the rock
world: A lotta people have
come up to me and tell me,
you know, if it wasnt for
me they would have never
picked up a guitar. If I knew
that was gonna be the case I
probably woulda practiced
a little more.
Greats from the rock
world paid tribute to
Frehley in the wake of his
death, including many
of those younger musicians whose careers were
jumpstarted in part by his
influence. Rage Against
the Machine guitarist Tom
Morello called Frehley his
first guitar hero, saying,

sonable. Everyone around
the world needs to be a little
afraid of him, while he is
willing to talk to anyone or
consider anything. His optimism can be misplaced (the
Ukraine war was a tougher
nut than he thought) and
his highly personalized
diplomacy can misfire (he
got unnecessarily crosswise
with Indian Prime Minister
Narendra Modi), but he can
also prove all his doubters
wrong.
The Washington cliche is
that there is no limit to the
good you can do if you dont
care who gets the credit.
Trump shows, to the contrary, that sometimes there
is no limit to the good you
can do if you want all the
credit.

a night for one young man.
Kyle Trendel won nine
of 10 games, taking the top
spot for the night. Carla
Ewert was his partner for
most of those nine games.
Dorothy Spencer had the
most perfect hands of 13,
with three. Jessie Duncan
won the 50/50, and Ron
Walter won the least number of games.
Please join us on
Thursday evening promptly at six oclock at the

Moreover, at-risk funding
is not going where it should,
Trabert said.
State audits show school
districts are not spending
more than $500 million annually on above and beyond
services for students who
are academically at-risk
as required by state law,
Trabert wrote. Watson and
the State Board of Education
should, by their own accreditation requirements, strip
accreditation from districts
not following the law, but
they dont. The excuse given
by General Counsel Scott
Gordon is that KSDE doesnt
consider that law to apply to
school improvement.
The results, Trabert said,
are entirely predictable.
The sad but very predictable ACT results, ironically,
come one day after the Kansas
Department of Education
released district-level state
assessment results purporting to show huge gains in
reading and math proficiency for high school students
based on new proficiency
standards, Trabert wrote.
Watson insists that rigor
wasnt reduced, but todays
ACT results are another piece
of evidence to the contrary.
Reducing state proficiency standards is symbolic of
Watsons legacy: constantly
trying to cover up declining outcomes rather than
acknowledge the crisis and
put action plans in place.
Trabert said, with Watson
retiring at the end of the year,
the legislature must muster the courage to intervene,
starting with rejecting the
low proficiency standards
and using their constitutional
authority to order the State
School Board to reinstate the
pre-Watson high standards.

Kansas Department of
Transportation suggests the
following to avoid deer:
Be most alert during
dawn, dusk and at night
when deer are likely to be
moving.
Reduce your speed in
areas where deer-crossing
signs are posted or where
theres woodland or agricultural edge near the road.
If you see one deer cross
the road, assume there are
more nearby. Deer rarely
travel alone.
Do not swerve dramatically to avoid a deer if it suddenly appears. Braking firmly while maintaining control
is safer than swerving into
another lane or off the road.
Always wear your seat
belt. Statistics show many
serious injuries in deer-vehicle collisions occur when
occupants werent restrained.
Use high-beam headlights
when safe, scan for the reflection of deer eyes at the roadside, and remain extra vigilant in stretches with low
visibility.

we were in a bare-knuckled
competition with the other
major paper in town. These
days, big-name journalists no
longer see themselves competing in a marketplace as
much as they see themselves
joined in a singular calling
to save the country from the
regressive ideas of conservatives.
I wish Weiss the best, but
journalism is broken from the
executive offices to journalism schools, where the leading professors demand mainstream conservative opinions
be marginalized. A healthy
journalistic environment
entails staffing outlets with
educated, independent-thinking staff members who exude
a healthy skepticism rather
than establishment notetakers and crusading ideologues.
That doesnt mean journalists
shouldnt have perspectives.
All thinking people have biases: regional, religious, ethnic,
intellectual, or whatnot. Staff
teams need to be diversified
not by color but by viewpoints.
Right now, legacy media act
as if progressive orthodoxy
is unbiased, ground-zero common sense, and anyone who
strays is engaged in a form of
sabotage. When Dan Rather,
the disgraced journalist who
pushed fabricated documents
to try to bring down a president, contends that Weisss
hiring is a dark day in the
halls of CBS News, he means
a dark day for partisans.
When Margaret Sullivan, former New York Times public
editor and now professor in
the ethics department of
Harvards journalism school,
calls the hiring of Weiss
weird, she means that
Weiss holds opinions that
the gatekeepers of journalism dislike. Weiss, after all,
is a staunch Zionist and a
fierce opponent of supposed
wokeness and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, she notes. Is that really
weird?
The Free Press offers intellectually stimulating reads
and investigative journalism
that span a wide variety of
perspectives. And thats the
real crisis. Julie Roginsky,
a Democratic Party strategist, asked her followers to
pray for 60 Minutes, which
she says is going to be overseen by someone who thinks
we need to give equal weight
to people who argue that
the earth is flat and to people who argue that the earth
is round. This isnt only a
gross caricature of Weisss
outlook but also an act of pro-
jection coming from a party
that believes a person chooses
his or her gender, treats the
1619 Project as history, and
sees the next coming of Adolf
Hitler behind every tax cut.
People who are genuinely
confident in their worldview
show this kind of fragility
when facing dissent.
How did Weiss rise from
editorial writer at the New
York Times to head of a highly successful Substack site
with 1.5 million subscribers
and now a top job at CBS
News? According to the
New York Times, she fought
wokeness and buddied up
with billionaires. (The word
wokeness is always enclosed
in quotation marks to indicate that it exists only in the
imagination of troglodytes.)
In 2020, Weiss claims she
was pushed out by her illiberal colleagues who called
her a Nazi and a racist. Her
claims are extraordinarily
believable considering the
pettiness and narrow-mindedness that oozes not only from
the papers columnists and
pages but from their allies.
So, for example, Weisss rise
is a heartwarming story of
how being an unethical and
talentless hack is no barrier

Vikings finish 1st & 2nd at league XC meet Eureka downs Vikings
League
Champions
has a nice ring to it…and
we had several of them,
Central Heights Vikings
head coach Troy Prosser
stated following a succesful Three Rivers League
meet last week at Central
Heights.
Josiah Meyer won the
varsity boys race, Ebony
Hughes cruised to a win
in the varsity girls race,
Wyatt Moon dominated the
7th grade boys race (as a
6th grader) and the varsity
boys claimed the team title
with 12 points in a four runner scoring system.
Its easy to get caught
up in the excitement of a
single day but for some, this
is their first league meet
while others the final,
Prosser stated.
For Aidan, Aydan and
Arabella, this is the seventh and final time competing in a league race since
all of them started together as sixth graders. In that
time, they have been a part
of, fittingly, seven combined league championship
teams.
They will all continue to add more memories
starting at next weekends
Regional Championship on
their home course. The varsity girls finished second
as a team to one of the top
teams in class 1A.
Ebony did exactly what
we talked about, ran her
best tactical race so far this
season and led from just
before the one mile mark
all the way to the finish.
Katelyn really picked it up
the second half of the race
and earned her first AllLeague honor by finishing
7th, Prosser added.
Interestingly enough,
the boys were technically
not favored to win based
on the top times this year
for each runner from all
of the teams in the meet
but they were definitely not
going to be denied this one
and marched to a nearly 40
point victory and almost a
perfect score.
Josiah and Stetson led
it out as they have done
many times this season and
their 1-2 finish along with
Ben and Cash going 5-6, we
had four All-League runners and seven of the top
19 – Aidan, Knox and Aydan
rounded out the full seven
runner team, said Prosser.
For the middle school-
ers, Wyatt Moon has burst
onto the scene this year and
finished with a resounding
victory. Rodney Macy also
finished All-League in 6th
and Jax McRoberts ran a
huge PR by almost a full
minute.
Emery Hughes had an
outstanding day finishing
3rd in the 7th grade race
and 7th overall for middle
schoolers. Kamden Moon
has led the girls team all
year and finished 5th and
Elizabeth Meyer 8th for two
more All-League runners
with Rilya Lickteig (personal record) and Mackenzie
Macy the first two spots
behind that distinction.
They finished the season
on a high note, running and
racing their best and taking
home plenty of hardware
and stories to remember for
a lifetime. With the TRL
behind us, we now focus on
the most important meet of
the season. Regionals either
marks the end or the opportunity to test ourselves one
last time against the best
2A has to offer. Competition
will be even more difficult
from here on out so it will
take our absolute best to
continue on.

City court records show
Hill is set for a first appearance Nov. 13. Anderson
County District Court
records show Hill is also
set to appear October 28 on
charges of interfering with
law enforcement, criminal
damage to property and
domestic battery against a
Garnett woman stemming
from a September 1 incident. Those charges are all
misdemeanors.
A review of online media
reports shows DUI charges
involving parents or guardians transporting kids to
or from school are rare.
In 2012, Lawrence police
arrested a 24-year-old while
driving his 6 and 8 year-old
children to school; counts
included DUI, child endangerment, open container,
no license/insurance. In
October 2022 Mesa, Az.,
police arrested adad passed
out in the elementary
school pickup line. He was
charged with aggravated/
extreme DUI with kids in
the car. In August 2022 a
mom arrived at an elementary school intoxicated to
pick up her 10- and 7-yearold and was arrested for
DUI in Utah County, Utah.
DUI arrests took a jump
at least during the Labor
Day Holiday enforcement
period on state highways,
with the Kansas Highway
Patrol reporting just 12
arrests during the 2024
weekend but 22 in 2025
during that reporting period. Compiled statistics
show morning and early
afternoon alcohol traffic
arrests are comparatively
rare, with DUI arrests most
often stemming from stops
between midnight and 3
a.m. The Kansas Traffic
Crash Facts Book shows

when law enforcement
frequently run DUI check
points and conduct alerts
for drunk drivers.
