Small town editor blasts Republican South Dakota governor

Democrats should end the filibuster then if they fall into the minority the lame duck Senate can restore it. Bipartisanship is a losing cause. Why Democrats in the Senate even tackled the commission vote is a complete mystery when a special prosecutor is the best answer in the first place.

During the height of the pandemic Earth hating Republicans wanted to ditch masks and get kids back into schools. But most now even admit they want to end social studies and turn students into mindless wage slaves. Teachers' wages in red states like South Dakota surf the bottom because Republicans are Balkanizing education amid a fight over critical race theory and in my home state academic freedom is under attack from a reactionary, Earth hating, self-dealing, authoritarian governor.

We all know Republican South Dakota Governor Kristi Lynn Arnold Noem (KLAN) is a racist so now she is exploiting ethnic cleansing to advance her national aspirations. Critical race theory is not something that was thought up by far-left academia. In fact, it wasn’t that long ago that people of color were not allowed to vote. Prior to passage of the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, South Dakota allowed Native Americans a limited right to vote, but only if they severed ties with their tribe, and as determined on a case-by-case basis. In 2001 a federal court ruled that South Dakota violated the 1965 federal Voting Rights Act when it approved a statewide redistricting plan that diluted the voting power of Native Americans. Isn’t politics dictating what our children are allowed to learn counter-productive to their developing opinions and ideals? Why is it dangerous to allow our young people to think for themselves? Are we afraid that our children will learn there is more than one manner in which to view the world? Isn’t banning critical race theory a form of censorship and indoctrination? These are the questions that we should be asking. [excerpt, Katie Zerr, Mobridge Tribune]

Wild Horses of Red Rock

After consulting with the Horse Shelter and an equine veterinarian Donnamarie and Larry have decided that the best way to protect ten free-roaming horses is to keep them in their care. Forage is scarce and the only water available is from wells on their property so the four mares that will foal very soon will be safe, well cared for and as wild as possible. About fifteen acres is fenced with horse-safe wire but the gate is always open so the herd can come and go as they please. The couple has been buying hay and so far that is working but the three stallions need to be gelded and that is expensive so we're asking you to pony up to help defray the cost.
