Our American flag is being desecrated! Is it the same people who have dissed ball players for kneeling during the national anthem who are now splitting the American flag with the confederate flag, Trump flag, gun flag, etc.
And regarding respect - Can’t we disagree with the views of...

I would like to express my utter dismay with the COVID restrictions at the CentraCare Nursing Home Long Prairie. While the majority of the staff there are loving caregivers, there are a few who might consider another line of employment!
As a Bachelor of Science Registered Nurse...

So what is new? Well, the Republicans are playing dirty pool. They held the majority in the Senate when they refused to hold a vote on Judge Garland, an Obama appointee in 2016 to fill the vacant seat held by the late Antonin Scalia in an election year. Now they do the opposite and...

Having been raised in small town U.S.A., Long Prairie, my parents taught me if you can’t say anything good about a person, don’t say anything at all. I assume Tim King’s parents didn’t teach him that.
