Sheriff Cole's New Message on the Southern Border

Our little town of Ludington made the national news again, but it wasn't any kind of feel-good story unless you're on the side of pointless resistance against the forces of law and order.  Ryan Louis Mosqueda, whose official address is just outside the Ludington city limits in PM Township, reportedly ambushed and opened fire on border patrol agents and other law enforcement in McAllen, Texas, injuring at least one in the process, and getting killed for the effort.  Mosqueda, 27, has a deep…See More

Fraternal Order of Eagles July 8, 2025

Appreciating the patriotic pride of the local FOE who have placed a giant flag on their exterior, even covering a window, and leaving it up even after the city's celebration of Independence Day, in an apparent nod to the 250th year commemoration.

Ludington City Council Meeting, June 23, 2025: Ten Reasons Why You Should Hate City Hall (in one meeting)

The agenda packet of the Ludington City Council's last regular meeting before Independence Day on June 23, 2025, didn't give much hint of how repressive our local government has been over the last three years, but fortunately the council's actions, words, and the voice of the citizens…See More

    Downloading Videos

    Want to download videos for a thread or just to add to our Videos library, but are having a hard time figuring it out?  It's not hard once you know how to do it.  First you will need the Video's "Embed" code; on a typical video site like Youtube they will have a "share" button you need to click, you will then see an "Embed" button you need to click.  You will see the code all in blue, you need to "copy" (as in copy and paste) this code by going to your copy command.
