Time For Him To Go

January 9, 2026

Dear Editor, So, who’s next, Cuba, Greenland, Colombia, Mexico? Given free reign (sic) by a court that every tyrant and thug on the planet would love to have in their corners, our dictator, in the one or two lucid moments he has each day, has apparently decided to take over the Western Hemisphere all by himself. He knows we don’t want a king to rule us. We’ve played that card twice already. What he must know is what we do want; we demand his insane criminal ass be removed from the White House. It is time for the New York Times to list the reasons …

Republicans in Disarray

December 26, 2025

To the Editor: In looking at the results in Georgia and Miami, Florida, the Republican Party is in a complete meltdown. For the first time in 30 years, a Democrat will represent the City of Miami. In Georgia, a Democrat won a seat in the Georgia House of Representatives. It should be noted that the Republican Party gerrymandered the seat, for the record. The 2025 elections are a warning sign for the 26 elections. Even in the strongholds where the GOP does well, nowhere is safe. If the trend holds (which is a strong possibility), the GOP will be wiped off the map, the likes …

A Time-Honored Tradition

December 12, 2025

Dear Editor: There has recently been a great deal of discussion both nationally and locally regarding the duty of military personnel in following illegal orders. Things got more interesting when it was reported that on September 2nd, a boat carrying suspected narco terrorists in the Caribbean was destroyed killing all but two occupants. Then a second strike was carried out to kill the two survivors. Many military legal experts say this second strike was clearly a violation and constituted possible war crimes and even murder. Since this event came to light there has been a great deal of blame shifting and confusion as to who …

The Genocide Continues—With Our Help

November 28, 2025

To the Editor: The World Jewish Congress has given its highest recognition, the Theodor Herzl Award, to Representative Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), largely for her outspoken support for the state of Israel. Stefanik, honored at the most recent award ceremony, declared: “I am proud to be one of the foremost champions of the Jewish people in the United States Congress, ensuring Israel’s right to defend herself and fiercely opposing efforts by some of my colleagues to undermine it.” But using starvation as a weapon of war cannot be justified as self-defense. Notably, at a January 13, 2024 press conference, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remarked, “We …

Editor on Editor Violence

November 15, 2025

HARTFORD, CONN., Nov. 16 – Dr. Birdsall, editor of the Hartford Telegram, was cowhided tonight by Allen Willey and L.P. Smith of the Sunday Globe, in return for a long article in the Telegram accusing the Globe of blackmailing operations. The punishment was inflicted with rawhide, chiefly about the head and face. After the assault, Birdsall drew a pistol and fired in their direction. KANSAS CITY, MO., Nov. 15 – The bodies of five witnesses whose testimony convicted Walker, the Bald Knob leader, of murder, were found hung to a tree on Barn Creek this morning. The entire district is again terrified. KEENE, N.H., Nov …

“Let Them Eat Candy”

November 15, 2025

Dear Editor, It’s November 1st as I write this, 26 days before Thanksgiving. The fascist regime is currently under court order to release emergency funding to feed the tens of millions who rely on SNAP benefits to stay alive. This is funding the dictator’s sniveling lying hypocritical little ChristoNationalist lapdog, aka the Speaker of the House, denies is available, even as the dictator is marbleizing the Lincoln bathroom and bulldozing the East Wing while bellowing we owe the fat demented bastard $230 million for hurt feelings. As if that weren’t enough to boil your blood, the useless, feckless, wimpy leaders of what some refer to …
