Dear Editor,

Conrad Brean is a spin doctor for an American president in the 1997 movie Wag the Dog. Brean teams with Hollywood producer Stanley Motss to manufacture a war in Albania to distract voters from a sexual scandal involving the president. The election is in two weeks.

Dear Editor,

Wow, Ms. J.M., you seem to have much rage against Senator Vance and former President Trump. Your “facts” are in no way truthful to say the least. Misinformation in today’s speak. In other words, lies. What happens on November 5, is going to decide if the United States will remain a Constitutional Republic or become a Marxist Regime.

Dear Editor,

The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place, that is the mirage that the people of Kingman have been facing for decades when addressing the City Council. This illusive phenomenon is both rhetorical and optical in perception but at the end of the day, the month or the years, the only ones being deceived are the good people of our town.

Arizona Congressional District 9 is one of the largest in the nation. It stretches from the West Valley to the California state line. From I-8 to the Utah state line.
