It’s Your Call

By NewsPress Now Start using it You know, the other day I heard about this COVID relief fund that most states have, and I’m sure every county’s got it, too. The roads are a mess. I mean, it’s unbelievable. Some of the roads are so bad that come wintertime, these snowplows are going to be

By NewsPress Now Voting Thank you for the St. Joe people who came out to vote. Thirty-one thousand people came out to vote on Nov. 5. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I hope all 31,000 people come out to vote in April. We have the school bond, and the city’s new sport complex will

By NewsPress Now Tell Sleepy Joe Tell Sleepy Joe that the garbage has spoken and its Kamala that’s getting thrown out with the trash. Big slice of crow pie I think everyone needs to congratulate now-President Donald J. Trump on his victory over Kamala Harris, and in the meantime, a lot of Democrats need to

By NewsPress Now Please fix it I wish the city, and I don’t know who would be responsible for it, would take care of the pony express rider that’s done in stone above the 229 Interstate. It looks really terrible for visitors coming in bad statement please fix it. Making voting easy I wanted to

By NewsPress Now Never seen it in my life I’ve never in my 65 years of life and voting in this country seen all forms of news outlets push one candidate so strongly to the presidency. If this one Democrat does not become President of the United States, I don’t know what it will take

By NewsPress Now Not meant for the long-term On Proposition A, for the minimum wage to go up, if that goes up, if that goes through, everything will go up. Meals at restaurants, retail, hotels, etc. Minimum wage was meant for people starting out, not long-term supporting a family. We’re already great We have the

By NewsPress Now She’s at it again Well, Kamala Harris is at it again. She’s talking out of both sides of her mouth, depending on who she’s talking to and who she’s trying to impress. She says she does not believe in criticizing people and calling names because of who they vote for because of

By NewsPress Now It’s obvious I think it’s obvious that the City of St. Joseph needs to fire its street maintenance department and just hire Herzog to do the work. Herzog can finish a complete street in a day or less, and it takes city employees months to just repair a small strip of street.

By NewsPress Now Getting tired I’m getting tired of the Democratic Party. Even Robert Kennedy Jr. said they’ve changed drastically for the worst and Kamala Harris is constantly making fun of Donald Trump. Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, those comedians make horrible statements on their shows. I won’t even watch it anymore. Time for changes to

By NewsPress Now It’s our tax money, not theirs I just seen on TV where the school board took it on themselves to build a new high school. You know, that needs to go before the people. That’s our tax money that they’re using. Our tax money, not theirs. It’s ours. And I think it

By NewsPress Now What has he done? I see where the News-Press is endorsing Josh Hawley. What has he done for Northwest Missouri? He voted against the infrastructure bill. He never has town hall meetings, and he made a fool of himself at the Senate hearings. She defeated herself Kamala Harris has just defeated herself.

By NewsPress Now Just wondering I was just curious, the billboard sign, “In a wreck, need a check,” the one you see as you’re coming onto 229 off of 36 highway, is that for real or did somebody vandalize that sign? That’s hilarious. Rough economy To the caller who thinks this is the best economy

By NewsPress Now Isn’t it amazing? Isn’t it amazing that the Democrats are having a fit because Elon Musk is supporting President Trump? Yet they turned a blind eye to George Soros and all the leftist things he supported and foisted on the American people. There should be no reason With regards to the abortion

By NewsPress Now Forgot an important word Patrick Mahomes recently said that his role concerning the upcoming election was to encourage folks to register to vote. He also said that they should vote for what is good for them and their families. He forgot one important word: Country. Draft two letters It’s time each one

By NewsPress Now Not our, nor the district’s, responsibility The taxpayers of St. Joseph, Missouri, gave our school districts money to hire new teachers and to try and retain the ones they got. We did not expect our tax dollars to be spent on manufacturing a new job that teach adults how to speak English.

By NewsPress Now Why no guardrail? Could someone explain from the Parks Department why there’s no safety guardrail on the new overpass going to the King Hill Overlook on Barbara St. There’s one on one side, but none on the north side. That’s a 120-foot drop down from Barbara Street, from the top of that

By NewsPress Now Why not use that? I see in the paper where the Parks Department got a big grant to build a pavilion out at Corby Pond. Where’s all these tax dollars going that we just passed for the Parks Department? Why are they not using that? It’s a waste of money, I think

By NewsPress Now Can’t believe it I just want to say that I cannot even believe that the school board is pursuing an idea of a new high school when we’ve got three beautiful high schools. There is absolutely no reason. We have a stable, perhaps declining population, certainly a declining student population. In this

By NewsPress Now Too old to be president Trump is too old to be president. He goes on and on and doesn’t make any sense at all. He needs to retire. He would be a danger to our country. Think of your kids, would you want them to live in a country like Russia? I

By NewsPress Now Don’t worry Don’t worry, Trump said he is not cognitively impaired. Why are we still talking about this? I was just calling in to say I really don’t know why in this day and age that we are still even talking about abortions. They’re all kinds of birth control pills and under

By NewsPress Now Get them gone Hey, City of St. Joe Public Works or Parks Department, what is the deal with the three huge piles of gravel debris at Ashland Ave. and Crescent Drive? They have been there all summer, creating a terrible eyesore. Let’s get them gone. Very appreciative I am an 82-year-old woman,

By NewsPress Now Just unacceptable I don’t know who does Trump’s hair every day, who his hairdresser is, but they need to find a new hairdresser. That comb-over is just unacceptable. A big fake Talk about a big fake. Trump bought his make America Great Again Bibles from China for $3.00 apiece. Is he trying

By NewsPress Now What in the world are they doing? What in the world is the City of St. Joseph doing on N 36th St. and Robin Lane off of Karnes Rd.? It is been closed now going on two weeks and some days they don’t show up at all. Other days when they show

By NewsPress Now Nothing but hate I see where Trump and the Republican allies are spreading lies about FEMA assistance. How can any true American not see that he is nothing but hate, is a hate monger? Their denial is bad If Republicans who hold office cannot admit that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election,

By NewsPress Now Where do they get their info? We just had a blowout jobs report. Unemployment is down, wages are increasing by more than 4% and inflation is going down. Where are Trump, Vance and the MAGA Republicans getting their economic information? Social media. Small potatoes To the caller that called in about Gov.

By NewsPress Now A wonderful thing they’re doing I’m calling about the cameras for license plates, and I think it’s a wonderful thing they’re doing. And if you’re not a lawbreaker, you should be happy to have those cameras. In this country, the security of the individual is more important than the worry of somebody

By NewsPress Now My question: Why? After Iran shot 180 ballistic missiles into Israel, Netanyahu is saying that they are going to hit Iran and they’re going to make it hurt, which I think it should. But Biden is telling Israel that they will not support them if they hit a nuclear facility, go after

By NewsPress Now It’s a raceway I was wondering when the police are going to be out there on Woodbine Rd. It is a raceway there. There’s people going to faster than 35 miles an hour and there’s no police officers to pull them over. Debate was interesting The VP debate was rather interesting. Walz

By NewsPress Now Wrong state You know, this is on payment disability. I called the Missouri Disability Association the other day about getting my disability. I get a phone call back from New Jersey. New Jersey. Now I called the state of Missouri not New Jersey. See how screwed up this Midwest is, man. Really

By NewsPress Now Don’t get the switch Before Donald Trump decided to run for president and before Elon Musk decided that he was a conservative, the media and everyone else in the world praised them or what they had done. All of a sudden now they’re terrible monsters. I don’t get the switch. Just can’t
