Democrats taking control

The Democrats now have the governing power in Maine. How long before the “rainy day” money is spent and how long before the work requirement is lifted for able Medicaid recipients? In that the Sun Journal is now the step-child of the Portland Sunday Telegram, when will readers see a similar printing of the votes […]

Trusts betrayed again

The world has witnessed an American bludgeoning of the basic principles of democracy. One party opposed all nominations for the Supreme Court by the president, before any name was known. Then the nominee was questioned as if he were a war criminal, with no intention of finding out the truth. Hidden traps were triggered as […]

Sanders — a voice out of the wilderness

A voice crying in the wilderness is supposed to be ignored, not rewarded with accolades and growing influence. Bernie Sanders is the prophet with honor in his own party. The former socialist gadfly is now the socialist trendsetter. At the moment, he has to be counted among the most successful ideological leaders in a generation […]

Liberals have nothing left

Have people noticed how much the liberals hate President Trump? The media, the papers — the left can’t say anything good about him. It is time they got over losing the last election; and, believe me, that is what it is all about — Trump won, Hillary lost. Now it appears that Obama’s cronies were […]

Leftists in control of America

The world is turning ugly, really ugly. In America, the political left and deep state establishment, aided and abetted by the controlled media, are presently staging a coup against President Donald Trump. They are trying to impeach him on totally false, fabricated charges. Global socialist Republicans such as John McCain and House Majority Leader Mitch […]

What are schools teaching?

With the onslaught of so many liberal teachers in the public schools and universities, including retired professor Bill Ayers (who helped bomb the Pentagon in 1972), students are now being instructed that they need to radically transform the nation. Schools are no longer institutions of learning. They have become laboratories of progressive indoctrination. Encouraging critical […]

Let’s hear from the other side of ‘climate change’

For sheer hilarity and hyperbole it’s hard to beat a recent headline on a Washington Post editorial opposing President Trump’s decision to remove the U.S. from the nonbinding and unenforceable Paris climate agreement. “Trump turns his back on the world,” it screamed. A close second goes to the headline on a New York Times piece […]

It’s all on Trump

I’m grateful for George Mathews’ letter (June 1) on a Harvard study that demonstrates media bias against President Trump. Now I can expand on my letter citing precedent for the media’s interest in conflict rather than partisan leanings. It’s simple, really: What the president says is news. He craves publicity, and his Twitter feeds and […]

Media bias confirmed by study

This is in reply to Dave Griffiths’ letter (May 25) titled “Stop the whining about media.” Griffiths is upset because many Americans believe that the liberal media is fake news and not to be believed. Finally, there is documented proof of the liberal media bias. Although, not a surprise to many Americans, a study at […]

Liberals are offensive

I am offended. I am offended every day by the liberal media’s biased rhetoric on Donald Trump, the president of the United States. I am offended that conservatives are shouted down and not allowed to speak on college campuses. I am offended by the inability of elected officials to work together. I am offended by […]
