Gas prices are too high in Sikeston

Hello, I’m from Sikeston and went to Cape, and their gas is $2.87. Why is our gas so high in Sikeston? You want us to shop locally, but for the difference in the price, you can go to Cape and shop. You need to get the prices down here. Our money is just as good as theirs.

What’s going on with Republican Party?

What is going on with the Republican Party in Missouri? The Republican speaker Dean Plocher got caught stealing from the taxpayers of Missouri by double-billing the state for his travel expenses so he hires the former Republican Speaker of the House Rod Jetton as his chief of staff. You remember him. He was the fella who was having perverted sex with a lady from Sikeston. He forgot the words to stop the perversion by saying “green balloons” and he wound up in court. I don’t expect the Rust newspaper group to report any of this because it shines light on the Republicans they support, and Republicans can only hear cleansed, alternative facts.
