Illinois veterans John Kraft and Kirk Allen have forced the resignations of 102 corrupt bureaucrats and politicians and have even placed their entire park district board under citizen’s arrest, as seen in the video on page 2.
Through their anti-corruption non-profit organization called the Edgar County Watchdogs, they show the rest of America how we as a people need to take back our government.

Easy to do with a small local government. Not so easy to do with a state government. If it was, the citizens of WI would have removed a lot of Koch-backed state politicians for similar reasons years ago.
How is this story f**e? What part of it is not truthful?
No doubt in my mind a deliberately misleading headline for starters. The 2 vets may have declared they were placing the board under citizens arrest, but they didn’t comply. They were arrested, but later on and by real cops. That’s like tagging a story, “Man Places Bank Robber Under Citizens Arrest” when all the man did was yell, “Stop! I’m placing you under citizens arrest!” as the robber got away. The part about 102 resignations is a host of separate stories altogether, but is grouped into the headline as if the incidents are related. They appear to be giving credit to 2 guys for the actions of an entire organization, so that part isn’t factual. Also, the 102 resignations being solely due to their actions is not supported. It’s not surprising that a supposed .org who litters their site with ads is recycling old news with carefully worded headlines to get visitors. Their true intent and purpose is obvious to me. How noble of them to keep us partially informed on old stories, I’m sure the ad revenue has nothing to do with it 😛 I never said the story was f**e, I said they are a f**e news site because they cherry pick stories and carefully edit them to have appealing headlines. The stories chosen are either unfounded or are only posted because they fit their biases. Anyone with an even basic education in journalism would see how this site is unethical. I have professional journalism experience and we all worked a lot harder to dig for facts on far less important subjects.

Now if we could group up and do this when ALEC is meeting with legislators to hand over bills written by corporations…
