Submitted by Harold Pease, Ph. D. The news is filled this week with the most recent attempted assassination of President Donald Trump. This time at the White House Correspondents Dinner April 25, 2026, by 31-year old admitted would-be assassin, Cole Thomas Allen, a guest in the Washington Hilton, the same hotel where John Hinckley tried to assassinate Ronald Regan in 1981. Allen fired and hit an agent as he ran through several in the lobby but was soon stopped and arrested. The Deep State media...
On Monday, March 30, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sued the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL), following through on warnings of legal action against the state for continuing to allow transgender athletes to compete in girls' sports in alleged violation of Title IX. The DOJ stated that MDE and MSHSL have engaged "in sex-based discrimination by requiring girls to compete against boys in athletic competitions designated exclusively for...
The power of the song Silent Night was demonstrated in one of the most destructive wars in world history just 98 years after written in 1816 and within miles of where written. by Father Joseph Mohr, while he was serving in Mariapfarr, Germany. It was famously associated with sparking the unofficial Christmas Truce on December 25, 1914, in World War I along the Western Front. No song had ever paused a war. During the early months of WWI, in frozen trenches near Ypres, Belgium, German soldiers...
OCTOBER 24 PRESS RELEASE The Minnesota Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled biological males have the right to compete in female athletics, a decision Rep. Paul Anderson, Republican of rural Starbuck, said threatens the safety of girls and undermines fair play. House Republicans introduced a pair of bills earlier this year to provide clear protections for female athletes and ensure fairness in competition, but House Democrats blocked them from passing. The Preserving Girls Sports Act (H.F. 12)...
Year after year, the community of Brooten joins forces with the Brooten Fire Relief Association and dozens upon dozens of local businesses, families and individuals to sponsor what everyone knows and loves as Bonanza Valley Days. The town does it because we love our people and we love having visitors come to town for a good time! It's a chance to let your guard down and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of Small Town America. Many BVD activities span the generations, whether it's the Farmers Market...
This was submitted by the Liberty Under Fire group and summarized by Harold Pease, Ph. D. For our newspapers this Christmas season we retell the greatest story ever told, God was Born. It is our almost 800th column telling readers mostly what the Deep State presses do not share. But this story is the reason for the season of America's most favorite holiday. Unfortunately it is today largely not shared outside christian churches and active members homes. We share it boldly and hope our...
This week, families across our state are gathering to spend quality time together, give thanks, and, of course, eat some delicious Minnesota-raised turkey. We all know we live in divided times. But this Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for the fact that what unites us as Minnesotans is far greater than what divides us: • We respect the dignity of work and the simple idea that our family members, friends, and neighbors should be able to afford a house or apartment, health care, and for our seniors, a...
A significant discussion is taking place at the state Legislature in reaction to the recent announcement that eight community newspapers will close at the end of the month. Under a proposal in the Senate Education Policy Omnibus bill (SF 3567), school districts would no longer be required to publish their proceedings in newspapers and could instead move them to their own websites. We believe the proposal, which is backed by the Minnesota School Boards Association, is a knee-jerk reaction made...
Have you heard of the Butterfly Effect? While you've been busy living your life, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been quietly changing the future of education in all Minnesota schools, public and private. His self-appointed licensing board is embedding Marxist principles and practices such as critical race theory, fluid sexual identity, and gender politics into teacher licensing requirements that will usher in radical ideologies. These changes will impact new teachers earning their teaching licenses as well as all current teachers renewing...
In the year 2022, eighth grade test scores in civics and U.S. history hit record lows. The decline didn't start with pandemic school closings. But they made it worse and revealed its extent. Less than half of adults can name the three branches of the U.S. government. Another 25% can't name even one. And just over one-third of Americans can pass the U.S. citizenship test. These sad facts are a reminder that the future success of our nation is far from guaranteed. We must acknowledge the imperfections of our current system and work to reform...
Publisher's statement on the Post Office: The Post Office system is currently breaking my back. Delivery issues with the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper have gotten out of control. Example: each week, a handful of newspapers that I paid to mail to subscribers are sent back to me with correct addresses, and I have to pay for each one that is returned (currently I pay 78 cents each time that happens). They are slapped with USPS labels saying that they have wrong addresses. Yes, in some cases, the...
U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) released the following statement on Independence Day. "All across our state, Minnesotans are coming together with friends and family for parades, barbecues, and fireworks in honor of the Fourth of July and the birth of our nation. Today, we celebrate the start of the great American experiment in democracy that began in 1776 when our founding fathers adopted the principles in the Declaration of Independence. Those principles became the foundation of our democracy and a roadmap of our nation's purpose....
House Democrats approved a bill on Tuesday, April 25 which Representative Paul Anderson of Starbuck said does not address the long-term care crisis in our state and severely underfunds this portion of the state budget. Anderson said he has concerns over the House Human Services Finance omnibus package (S.F. 2934) for its lack of funding for nursing homes, which came to the floor accounting for just .01 percent of the Democrats' $72 billion budget proposal that consumes the state's $19 billion...
Here's a special Paul Harvey video found on YouTube at the official Paul Harvey Archives channel....
In 1965, American radio host Paul Harvey gave an immense warning to the American people about the fate of the nation. "We Were Warned: Freedom to Chains" is a short film about the parallels between the warning Harvey gave over fifty years ago, and today with the socialist influences in government and society. This video is an edit of the short film created to provide only the audio without the visuals seen in the original. Harvey's speech lasts about 9 minutes. He was born in Tulsa, OK on September 4, 1918 and passed away on February 28, 2009...
Excess deaths in the United Kingdom are currently 1,564 per week above the statistical average. This mind-blowing statistic compares to a figure of 1,322 excess deaths per week in the U.K. in 2021. In 2020, before the completely "safe and effective" COVID-19 treatments were unleashed by global pharmaceutical conglomerates, the excess deaths per week figure was 315 during the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic. Let all that sink in for a moment. The figures are both stunning and appalling. The video...
Meanwhile, at the United States Food and Drug Administration, the commissioner of the FDA recently committed a massive breach of ethics when he began specifically promoting a drug with his government-backed mouthpiece. Remember: it is just a coincidence and should not lead to skepticism of our government and Big Pharma when President Biden, CDC diretor Walensky and Dr. Fauci all suffered from Paxlovoid-induced COVID rebound, not to mention all the other celebrities and government figures who...
In September Republican Governor candidate Scott Jensen repeated the crazy, debunked claim that some of our Minnesota schools had cat litter boxes for children to pee in! This bizarre internet hoax was given traction when outgoing Republican State Representative Tim Miller claimed it as fact at the State Capitol. Alexandria and Minnewaska districts were ones mentioned using these. I have grandsons at both the Minnewaska elementary school and High School, and I'm quite sure one of them would have mentioned this were it the case. As a former educ...
A professor who was fired from the University of California-Irvine was recently vindicated in his battle with his former employer. Dr. Aaron Kheriaty has been an outspoken advocate for natural immunity and fighting against COVID-19 vaccine mandates. The video features a lengthy interview with the professor and doctor, who is part of a lawsuit that will force government officials like Anthony Fauci to defend the strictures imposed on the public during the pandemic. Leading up to the pandemic,...
A self-described health fitness expert named Doug Brignole has passed away after spending months and months and months during 2021 and 2022 stressing how important and life-saving it was to get the experimental but "safe and effective" COVID-19 therapeutic jabs. Note: Brighole's first jab of the COVID therapeutic was in April 2021. He recently passed away at age 62 on October 13. He proudly said on Twitter, "We're all in this together, so let's do our share to beat it" on April 4, 2021 when he first rolled up his sleeve for jab No. 1. Keep in...
It's become a broken record in the United States. Over and over we see self-described "experts" fail us in the area of health and wellness. The latest antics come from the "American Society for Nutrition" who suggested that "more research is needed" to determine the link between children having poor health outcomes due to eating unhealthy foods. Really? As outlined in the video below by Dr. Suneel Dhand, this is an insanely stupid thing to say. Who in their right mind doubts that eating junk...
Who else out there is getting demolished financially by the current regime we're living under in the U.S.? Our family's 529 college savings accounts for our two primary school-aged children have each lost over 12 percent of their value. That's just one of many examples of how 2022 is crushing us financially. Something has to change....
Editorial commentary submitted to the Bonanza Valley Voice by Senator Amy Klobuchar. On this Fourth of July, we celebrate the birth of our country-the great American experiment in democracy that began in 1776, when our founding fathers adopted the principles penned in the Declaration of Independence. Those principles became the bedrock of our nation, a roadmap of America's purpose, and the foundation for a new way of governing rooted in the importance of working together. Throughout our history, brave Americans have fought and given what...
Jennifer Granholm is another high-ranking government official in our world who is one sick puppy. Utterly vile! She takes smug and arrogant to a whole new level. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: we are ruled by completely incompetent people who are so self-absorbed that they have NO CLUE whatsoever what pain we are suffering out in the lower and middle class of America....
It remains to be seen if federal officials will explain how they ignored warnings dating back to last fall about what was an impending shortage of baby formula in the United States. Some media ask the question, but there's not much explanation coming from Washington D.C. At the end of the day, we know that bureaucracy ultimately slows down what could be speedy progress to the problems we face in America....
