Pandemic or not, we’ll continue to deliver the news

For the past four years, Heartland Newsfeed has been dedicated to bringing you the most up-to-date news. The news has varied over time, but if it's important to you, it's important to us. As publisher and editor-in-chief, one of the greatest concerns I've heard is the lack of local news and the absence of a local news operation. I would like to assure you that while the Nokomis Free Press-Progress -- the local newspaper that I contribute content to now […]

EDITORIAL: Ballot access campaigns for alternative parties are about to become much harder

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- As each state is slowly making restrictions on events with attendance over a specific threshold as the result of the COVID-19 coronavirus, those restrictions have a wide-spreading impact on alternative parties wishing to gain ballot access on the general election ballot in November. Thursday, a joint press release was pushed out jointly by Libertarian Party of Iowa chairman Mike Conner, Jr. and Iowa Green Party co-chair Erin Young regarding COVID-19 and how this will impact their candidate […]

EDITORIAL: Eating crow over WWE Elimination Chamber predictions

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- In the relentless cycle that is the 24-hour news cycle, it's definitely too late for me to write a review for WWE's recent PPV Elimination Chamber. In a preview of the event, as published on Ambush Sports, I made some predictions for the show: Shayna Baszler in the women's Elimination Chamber match Braun Strowman would retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship in a handicap match against Sami Zayn, Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura The New Day would win back […]

EDITORIAL: Total chaos in the newsroom and home studio, weighing goods and bads

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- The past few weeks have been total, absolute chaos -- but for some odd reason, this chaos has actually been good for me. That's rare. I have to evaluate the goods against the bads and that's fine. (Even if they serve as separate entities part of an inner monologue.) GOOD JAKE: I've secured a broadcast deal with iMedia1 Radio Network to carry football games from a semi-professional league called the Gridiron Developmental Football League, with coverage starting with […]

EDITORIAL: The road to BotchaMania LIX is a hilarious one, but angers voters as well

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- I sincerely wish I was kidding by calling every single presidential election in our nation's history as a botch. I'm not. (And for you wrestling fans out there, sorry - I wasn't referring to the annual botch festival known as WrestleMania....sorry to burst that bubble.) I couldn't help but write something after I saw a Facebook post from Libertarian Party national chairman Nicholas Sarwark: Just in case you don't quite know what I mean when I refer […]

EDITORIAL: Twitter, Spotify choose to be losers in 2020 election ad race while Facebook, Google cash in

Presidential candidates running for the role of commander-in-chief have spent more than $105 million on digital ads to date. Facebook and Google have received a lion's share of the ad revenue. Twitter chose to opt-out for the 2020 presidential election, and just recently, Spotify decided to opt-out as well. This is despite political organizations like the campaign of Bernie Sanders and the Republican National Committee who previously utilized the platform's paid ad network. With billionaires in the presidential race, such […]

COMMENTARY: Trump impeachment set to be another waste of taxpayer dollars

I will be the first to admit that I'm no fan of President Donald J. Trump. I was so disgusted with the duopoly's candidate-throat-shoving via the GOP's Trump and the Democrats' Hillary Clinton. I voted for Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson without hesitation because I'm beyond disgusted with both major parties. The current attempts in the House to impeach Trump with a full vote expected before the end of the 2019 session can be somewhat equated to the 1998 impeachment of […]

COMMENTARY: Elections limited to two-party system is unhealthy

Uncontested elections are even worse Petitioning recently ended for the members of the political duopoly for their upcoming primary election in Illinois taking place on March 17, 2020. Only in two counties was a political party that was neither Democrat nor Republican allowed to slate candidates for their own partisan primary. Libertarians in McLean and Kankakee counties recently filed their petitions for their own party primary. It's bad enough when your choices are often limited to Democrat or Republican, but […]

OP-ED: How will universal healthcare change human behavior?

Co-pays are gone, premiums are gone, all out of pocket prices are gone! - Bernie Sanders at the DNC presidential debate on Oct. 15th, concerning his universal health care program. The healthcare industry is very complex. There are numerous jobs that require accreditation; all the producers of hospital equipment and medicine; the construction contractors that have to be hired to build the facilities and there are probably a hundred or more other factors that are involved in providing health care. […]
