Do you need evidence of his harassment of me I have a full folder. Now he is harassing my mother too and I hope you agree that is unacceptable. Why does he need so many fake profiles is he ashamed of his real life?

I hope you wake up today and wonder what Edward is hiding. Do you know his real identity do you know that he has been stalking me. He sends cards and letters to an address he thinks is mine through the regular Post Office I have them if that will help your investigation.

She has passed no legislation to help her district that I know of. If I am wrong, I hope Mr. Stec or Mr. Simpson can point it out for me.

I guess it depends what one considers helps the district

renaming a post office

and issuing a coin

the only two bills she authored into law

Well, there’s that post office she renamed……and the co-sponsoring she managed to slither onto that never made it to the floor, so basically nothing. She tried really hard to take credit for legislation that actually passed that she voted against.

Maybe she’s like a friend of mine who had a Buick Riviera that was an incredible lemon. She was practically singlehandedly keeping the local garage in business with that car, and I asked her why she didn’t just get rid of it and she said, “But I already put so much into it!” I think she just kept hoping the next repair would be the one that made it all worthwhile.

End of story: she ended up junking it.

What a memorable moment captured in that photo of you and Bob Woodward! Perfect for framing… with his quote printed below it…the one you hung in the Post Star office.

That quote also mirrors your own ongoing commitment to investigative journalism… in exposing the truth about local and national neglect by elected officials who seek long term employment benefits… without serving the critical needs of their constituents.

We are fortunate that your current residency in New Orleans has not disrupted your flow of The Front Page contributions. In fact, it has enhanced your contributions, and the gift of great debates it creates. And given you precious time for you and ? Sophie to enjoy the companionship of your son. Many unexpected blessings can come from difficult decisions made during a grieving process…

I agree.....that picture was so perfect! I'm glad there was a long line waiting for Woodward to sign his books but I wonder what he did NOT include in his books over the years....all of THAT might be worth a book or two now.

Thank you for your kind words. I love the North Country, but it has been a healing time here in New Orleans. I will be coming back Tuesday with my play reading scheduled for Wednesday.

This is very interesting... It is amazing that Mr. Tingley is more insightful than many of the reporters living in the area. (Though I would contend that to have wisdom, you have to have experience!)

In another post I just mentioned Honesty and Integrity ... and Mr. Tingley is working towards that goal every day.

Much appreciated. Just trying to get it right. That always was the goal.

The 5th anniversary of the Covid pandemic comes much like the Covid pandemic when Trump eliminated much of our overseas health connections and warning system.

There is ongoing discussion about how Covid started, was it a lab leak or not?

If Trump had not removed American doctors from positions working with the Chinese health system, we would likely have known or had a good sense of how it came about. We would have had much better early warning. We would likely have know there was potential for a serious epidemic sometime in November 2019.

May 2018

The Trump Administration disbands the White House pandemic response team.

July 2019

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) epidemiologist embedded in China’s disease control agency left the post, and the Trump Administration eliminated the role.

Oct. 2019

“Currently, there are insufficient funding sources designated for the federal government to use in response to a severe influenza pandemic.”

Jan. 22, 2020

“We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

Jan. 24, 2020

Trump praises China’s handling of the coronavirus: “China has been working very hard to contain the Coronavirus. The United States greatly appreciates their efforts and transparency. It will all work out well. In particular, on behalf of the American People, I want to thank President Xi!”

While looking for the Truth look at Walk the Plank with Edward Low December 20 2024. There is no truth whatsoever. Start with the obvious. He needed to distort my photo to call me fat. He has zero facts about my weight. Next my sex life is in his fantasies. He doesn't understand he is not my first rodeo. Unattractive men never understand when they can't get the attention of hot girls

Today's post mentioned you. I forgot to tell you he gets extremely jealous of any man that even talks to me. He went over my Facebook page and left nasty comments on every single post back to the beginning I removed his nonsense.

Also, I have no readers right now... I only know of three people who have read ‘Walking the Plank’ one is the crazy ol’crone. Another is a guy who has his own substack and he responded to the ol’crone saying I was nasty about her. He is right... but if you read his substack or the letters he sends to the newspaper... he can be a little snarky, though not as bad as me... and one other person.

The North Country had 2 ice storms this weekend. One was icy weather. The other was "ICE STORM TROOPERS" seizing 3 local high school students among 8 workers on a farm near the village of Sackets Harbor, calling them all "illegal aliens." This is the home of Deportation Czar Tom Homan. One wonders, after the village had an "empty chair" town hall last Tuesday, whether this was to show us who's the boss. With a quota/deadline of 1200/day, last month ICE seized 15 Navajo, 3 Puerto Ricans (citizens since 1898), 20 children, 2 pregnant women, and a US veteran with 3 combat tours. Reminds me of Martin Niemollar's "First socialists, then trade unionists, Jews, then me."

I firmly believe that the Dems... Blake Gendebien should have an 'empty seat' town hall every couple months... moving it from village to village, town to town.

But - - > not just a criticism of pos_tfnKKK... but also responding with policy he would use to find solutions.

There is no guarantee that Blake will be the candidate. I am still waiting to see one fact posted to back up your lies about my weight sex life career family. Do you remember when you said my mother died and I inherited her house. Please list that fact.

As to your Woodward experience, isn’t it inspiring and motivating to brush shoulders with greatness? Or even just to sit and listen to them “live and in color”?

<"It's amazing, the executive orders, the plans," Woodward said. "What's the goal? It almost seems like it is a plan to destroy the American economy. Why would you want to do that? It's kind of a self-destructive madness. It is frightening.">

I’ll suggest that Donald Trump is more interested in being remembered than he is in making America great or any other boilerplate. Adolph Hitler was one of the most horrible people who ever lived but he’s remembered.

Not saying Trump is comparable just that it may explain his fascination. He’ll gladly destroy the country if it means he’s never forgotten. Who wants to be Franklin Pierce or Martin Van Buren.

Mr. Woodward's book hopefully should be a textbook in journalism school.

I watch interviews and am amazed at how the hard questions are not asked... and worse the lies are not refuted.

He is dead on about hmpy trmpedo.. he has manipulated followers just as nixon did. BTW, 1989 was the year that trmpedo took out a full page add about the Central Park 5... hmpy called for the execution (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdrjrd70286o) back then he was a lying vigilante.. in the last election he lied again, saying the five men pleaded guilty.

His supporters (not known for intelligence *) likely believed him.. if they were racist they DEFINITELY believed him.

hmpy validates hate and him manipulates the misinformed. you can see it in the words and posts of his supporters.

I want to say mental illness is a terrible thing... you can see it in the comments all over the internet.

The perfect example is how supporters of hmpy trmPEdo react to facts... or how they ignore facts..

When hmpy says: "They aren't coming for me, they are coming for you... I am just in the way."

He is being evil at two levels.

ª he is lying.. when he colluded with russia or tried to extort Ukraine.. that had nothing to do with his supporters... it was all about him and how corrupt he is..

ª in making such a statement, hmpy is amplifying the paranoia of his supporters.

One only has to look at the comments on social media or the research*

Instead of lying to them, he should be offering places where they can get mental health services**
