A boom on a truck hit the underside of Sorrels Overpass on Interstate 70 westbound, causing one lane to be closed and dramatically slowing traffic through the city.

I normally get to Boonville right on time to start my 2nd job. Now I'm almost 30 minutes late.

The closure only applies right now to the westbound lanes, though more closures will be needed during demolition and construction.

It is not "transitory' or caused by the pandemic. It is being caused by idiots in Washington. And it hurts already.

Max DeYoung

For most people it is, especially those who work for a living and those on fixed incomes. But Joe Biden doesn't care, he still thinks he is a truck driver, which he never has been, but his dementia says otherwise.

Vernon Taylor

Of course it is. Why even ask? To say otherwise is a suspension of disbelief. Such as to say we have a functioning president.

Larry Sabulsky

inflation is always a problem, but this one has been caused by the ignorant actions of Brandon's administration.

Eclectic come from the Greek: To select. Ancient philosophers who were relative in their thinking of doctrines. What library do you use? Work Cited. “Eclectic.” Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, Merriam-Webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/eclectic. Accessed 2 Dec. 2021.

Eclecticism is distinct from syncretism, the attempt to reconcile or combine systems, in that it does not attempt to resolve the contradictions between them. Therefore, to deny inflation exists, does not resolve the fact that it does in fact exist.

A Cole County judge ruled last week that such orders from non-elected officials were unconstitutional. Attorney General Eric Schmitt has sued local governments over health orders.

Because they have no authority over the public.

Lisa Gore

They are not elected representatives of our constitutional rights not to enter into a health care system of our own God-Given Free Will of choice.

Max DeYoung

No one has the right, to override anyone's Constitutional Rights.
