Another “end of the run” for soon to be graduates

Another “end of the run” for soon to be graduates

Graduating from high school is one of the first big steps each year for so many students, as they step up to take the next strides in life. This will be my 16th year of covering graduation ceremonies in Clay County, and each year, it is so different. The process, in many ways, are the very same with each school, but the feel and mood of each of our three county schools ceremonies are totally different. I anticipate that this year will be just the same. 05/01/2024 12:00 AM

Response to J.L. Schmidt CapView (2/13/24) Column RE: LB45

A recent editorial in this publication showed no understanding of the constraints on city governments regarding rundown properties, citing LB 45. While it would be most desirable for all property owners to keep their properties in peak condition, that is not the reality; thus, communities across the state are left with buildings which continue to deteriorate. 02/28/2024 05:00 AM

Bringing the border crisis under control

Bringing the border crisis under control

The crisis at our Southern Border is enormous, unprecedented, and is putting Americans at risk. According to United States Customs and Border Protection, more than 1 million migrant encounters have been recorded at the border since October 1, 2024—a mark reached faster than any previous fiscal year on record. To this point in Fiscal Year 2024, 50 individuals whose names appear in the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Terrorist Screening Database have been stopped trying to enter the United States illegally. This is greater than the number of terrorist watchlist encounters at the border in FY17-FY22 combined. 02/14/2024 05:00 AM
