How can the nation’s elected officials continue to enable a plutocratic regime run by the most anti-democratic, racist, hate-filled, pejorative-tweeting man currently in the White House? The swamp hasn’t been drained; it has become a cesspool of esurient extremists, who only care what they can get away with. The people of this country need to […]

As I watched Robert Mueller’s testimony last week, I was ashamed and angered at the lack of respect displayed by some of the Republican men and women. Mueller has been nothing but honorable, trustworthy and respected during his life of service to the United States of America. I sat there in disbelief as several Republicans […]

Recently, I had a lucky encounter with bikers. I am an elderly man living in Phillips and although I can drive, I have to use a walker. As I prepared to go pick up mail at the Post Office, I noticed that one tire on my vehicle looked a bit low. The Post Office is […]

I am writing to express appreciation for the hard work members of the Lewiston Little League put in during the Maine State Little League Tournament, which they hosted. They did an outstanding job. A small army of volunteers gave countless hours, making the week a very special experience for teams of kids from across Maine. […]

Recently, President Donald Trump took a tongue-lashing from the media when he tweeted that four Democratic Congresswomen were saying things that were anti-American and that they should return to the country of their origin. The media again reacted when the president mentioned the name of one of the four at a rally at which he […]

How did we get here? During the past few days, the news about the treatment of four Democratic women in Congress has been demoralizing. I have just finished reading a book about the war between the north and the south — “The Yankee Widow,” by Linda Lael Miller. Words from her book inspire me to […]

Within weeks of launching the new 501(c)(4) “Maine Momentum” and its subsidiary, the 16 Counties Coalition, attacks on Sen. Susan Collins have begun. Supposedly an “educational campaign” (which is legally prohibited from endorsing or opposing a political candidate), Maine Momentum is a thinly-veiled cover being used by Democrats to attack Sen. Collins. In a guest […]

Well, I have finally seen the light. I want to thank President Trump for showing me the way and making me realize my faulty thinking. Throughout my life, I have always considered myself to be an American and was proud to say so. How wrong I was. As a veteran, I always had a job, […]

To say that all Democrats are socialists is as wrong as saying all Republicans are racists. To say all racists, anti-semites and bigots support President Donald Trump and Republicans is more correct. Trump has shown his racists tendencies from his comments about Mexicans while announcing his candidacy; comments about the white supremacists in Charlottesville; saying […]

As a government founded and based on Christian values, socialist values are a slap in the face to an almighty and sovereign God. Left-wing liberalism is its own worst enemy. This country may have various so-called religions and they, too, will have their just rewards. I can see why Jesus wept. It is heartbreaking that […]
