As unpredictable as Rep. Jared Golden was in his current term, I sincerely feel that my 1967 Lewiston High classmate, Paul LePage, would be worse. Paul, in refusing to back Medicaid expansion, has blocked thousands of Mainers from receiving life-saving health care. What do Republicans have against citizens receiving decent health care?

Collins puts Mainers first with her approach on energy | Letter
Energy policy has a massive impact on the daily lives of Mainers. It shows up in our monthly bills and business costs. Those costs determine whether people can afford to live and work in the communities they love. That’s why Sen. Susan Collins’ practical approach to energy policy deserves recognition. Maine needs a diverse energy portfolio, and […]

Rise up and make your voices heard | Letter
Thank you for the Jan. 30 op-ed “Please stop calling it polarization.” I am tired of being called a radical Marxist communist just because I want our government to live by the words and ideals enshrined in Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. I am tired of being told I need to learn to listen […]

Thinking that doing nothing wrong will keep one safe from unlawful search and seizure is a naive point of view.

US citizens should honor and respect the American flag | Letter
To the point. I don’t care which side someone is on, it’s never OK to fly the American flag upside down. I saw that at the protest in Wells on Saturday, Jan. 28, at the corner of routes 1 and 109, and I was offended! Maybe, just maybe, it was not an American flying it, […]

Rick Bennett will restore civility to governor’s seat | Letter
State politics here in Maine have suffered from a lack of civility we should expect from our chief executive. Gov. Mills’ natural propensity is taking swings at those she disagrees with in a prosecutorial manner, reflective of her profession. For many, it has been a long seven years of enduring one charge after another against […]

Caught, but all for naught | Letter
News is all over social media about Maine’s Democrat governor, Janet Mills, being “caught” in multiple fraud cases involving her and her brother, but please pardon me if I don’t plan the ticker tape parade just yet. Adam Schiff was caught peddling a false narrative about Russian collusion to besmirch an incoming president and jam up […]

Susan Collins is no friend of immigrants and no moderate | Letter
Don’t fall for Susan Collins’ latest playacting as a moderate senator, bravely defending immigrant rights in Maine against Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). She had nothing to do with Noem pausing the “surge.” This was strictly a political decision by the administration and the Republican Party to help with her reelection […]

A nagging question on being armed | Letter
As I celebrate my 94th birthday, I am troubled by a situation that keeps bopping in my brainlike a line from a song, which I do not like but which I cannot forget. It is legal to carry a firearm concealed in a backpack, in a holster, in one’s handbag, tucked into one’s belt. Presumably […]
