The president and his congressional enablers are using every tool in their arsenal — Twitter, TV talk shows, Fox News and news conferences to blanket the people of this country in a fog of disinformation and outright falsehoods to defend this corrupt president from himself and his misdeeds.

I write to support Katie Boss in her bid for one of Auburn’s two at-large council seats. As a former city councilor in Auburn, I appreciate the value of having a city council that engages in thoughtful dialogue, not divisive debate. Katie Boss’ candidacy presents Auburn with an opportunity for progress in this regard. I […]

According to that article, “Complaint details ‘Wall of Shame’” (Friday, Oct. 4) it says the “employees posted confidential patient medical records for employees to see, including photos of genitalia, in an apparent attempt to ridicule disabled patients.”  Wonderful.  It further states: the information on “Shame Wall was intended to demean and included supposed jokes about […]

Gov. Janet Mills, legislators, business people and engineers should be looking to utilize the Atlantic Ocean tides for renewable energy. The tides have been dependable for as long as I can remember. Where are the engineers? This nation needs their help. Janet Kinney, Jay

Mark is passionate about the city of Lewiston. His experience as a city councilor, council president and school committee chairperson makes him the best choice for the mayor of Lewiston.
