Hamlin Censure: A Bridge Too Far?

To say that the current Hamlin Township Board of Trustees is philosophically divided would be an understatement, as one sees ample evidence of it whenever they have gone to a meeting over the last two years.  Contentious meetings have been the norm and so when one reviews the agenda packet for the February 12, 2026 meeting they see a lot of potential for conflicts,…See More

A Superbowl Between Ideologies

Perhaps the only thing more uninspiring than watching a Superbowl where neither team scored a touchdown in the first three quarters of a game that wasn't competitive at all, even until the end, was the halftime show.  We will explore the entertainment, that was decidedly as uninspiring as the game itself-- but first let's look at the underlying theme which indicated that entertainment was being supplanted by a political message.  In large black letters on a white screen, we saw a disturbing…See More

"I thought shutting down Hide-my-owi- Hand's website also stopped the dam break (negative comments) but still a lot of water got out. How is it that so many public sites (city, police etc.) don't allow comments? Not required by law?"

Swatting the Constitution with a Sensitive Hand

The county prosecutor has been caught breaking the law again and denying First Amendment protections to at least four people that likely aren't even living in the state.  Mason County Prosecutor Beth Hand, perhaps best known over the last week for not prosecuting three Ludington Police Department officers for crimes involving DWI and evidence…See More

New to this site.  You are well informed and write superbly.  Is this your site/'invention''?

I am in Ludington every couple of weeks.  Likely to continue into 2026.  Also grew up in Ludington.

Best/only strong resource to get better in touch with Ludington.  Thank you!

X, I am unable to edit my comments and cannot attach a photo or video to my comments. I don't know if it's my computer or if it's has something to do with the forum. Just wondering if anyone else is having a problem.

Louise, in the upper right corner of the main page you will see your name and an "inbox (1 new)" link under it.  Click on that and you'll see a message from me.  Click on that, and then reply in that same space.  This will be private messaging between you and me.  I will use my resources to try and verify your claims; our sheriff's office is remarkably cloaked in secrecy (more so than the COL) since KIm Cole assumed the position of sheriff.

Sure hope to hear these names! Bullies need exposed!

I’m not sure how to message you, other than this way...sorry not good with computers. I have no evidence or proof. I’m sorry I wish I knew how to verify the claims all I can tell you is the names of the officers I heard about

Ive heard that a local corrections officer got fired for sleeping with an inmate while on duty and another got fired for falsifying his time card, also A deputy Sargent recently got demoted. What is going on at our local sheriffs office and why is none of this being reported?

I'm curious about something and have not been able to find an answer. I'm hoping you may know the answer. Is it 'usual practice' to use a person's full name in the body of an op-ed?
