The only reason to be a liar is to cover up the true facts. Jan. 6 was an attempted coup by Trump supporters. Truth is fleeting for Republican politicians claiming Jan. 6 was a love fest with police being hugged and kissed. If people believe that I have a bridge to sell them. Republicans spreading […]

This is a rebuttal to a recent letter (Richard Charloff, “More Republicans need to get vaccinated,” July 22) stating that only Republicans are refusing COVID vaccinations. The first mistake was thinking it’s only Republicans who are to blame for non-vaccinations. The fact is, who they should be blaming are Dr. Anthony Fauci and experts at […]

This pandemic will never come to an end as long as there are people who aren’t vaccinated and won’t wear a mask. We should make it mandatory, or a stiff fine if ignored. Think of children, who could have long and healthy lives, but that could be cut short. There is news that infections are […]

I am compelled to address some of the absurdities written by John Wade (“Questioning GOP’s support of Trump,” July 18). His uninformed mischaracterization of Trump supporters as crazy worshipers or racist is not only inaccurate, it is insulting. Our country is not a racist country. People who believe our country is racist are falling for […]

In his July 20 rebuttal to Cal Thomas’s July 11 column decrying the Supreme Court’s unwillingness to hear a second appeal from a florist who had refused to serve a soon-to-be-married gay couple, Christian minister Marc Greenwood disdained his “pity party for Christianity,” prompted as it was by his conviction that America was founded as […]

Unfortunately, the Cal Thomas column of July 22 (“Truth and COVID-19“) was full of bits of information and half-truths used to create confusion regarding the virus. He criticizes Dr. Anthony Fauci for allegedly changing his position on masks, but the “typical mask” has never been credited with the ability to protect the wearer from infection. […]

When I recently went online to find out how many Democrats vs. Republicans have had the COVID vaccine, a recent poll showed that 86% of Democrats and 45% of Republicans were vaccinated. Many reasons for this disparity have been given, but I do not want to waste my limited amount of space with a review […]

As a young climate activist, I’m deeply concerned about the fact that our political leaders are not doing enough to combat climate change. Case in point: the decision by Congress in 2017 to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas development. The Arctic Refuge is one of the last wild places […]

I write in response to Kevin Landry’s guest column (“Time to move on from a cancerous past,” July 11). I think Landry is correct to point out the biases and discrimination New England’s Franco Americans have faced. However, Landry makes the specious claim that if systemic racism exists “then not only are institutions racist, but […]
