First it was Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama. Now itβs Donald Trump Jr. and Sen. Kamala Harris. Clearly, a rotten apple doesnβt fall far from an infested tree.

Robert Mueller is being asked to testify yet again. He said he could only stick to the Report, & that is what he would and must do. After so much testimony & total transparency, this Witch Hunt must now end. No more Do Overs. No Collusion, No Obstruction. The Great Hoax is dead!

To the editor:
Donald Trump and the Republican Party have a serious problem with truth and intellectual honesty. A few examples of made-up lies propagated by Trump and Republicans: global warming is a hoax, there is widespread voter fraud, tax cuts pay for themselves, and Barack Obama is a Muslim born in Kenya.
Now comes the made-up lie from Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and the Department of Justice that the reason for the new citizenship question on the 2020 census is to enforce the Voting Rights Act. What is shocking and outrageous about the 5-4 Supreme Court decision is that the four conservative justices in the minority were willing to countenance such a blatant lie in order to further a racially motivated power grab by Republicans. That decision should have been 9-0.
When truth, principles, intellectual honesty, and credibility no longer have meaning or importance to the Republican Party, and the conservatives on the highest court in the land are also infected with this disease, I truly fear for our country and democracy.

…..why President Trump has to deal with North Korea the way it is now. He had to figure out what to do with the Korea mess. I think this is why the President deserves a lot of credit.β Harry Kazianis, Center for the National Interest. Thank you!

Yesterday evening, in our new house in Arlington, Texas, Katherine and I watched Nightcrawler (2014), which I own on DVD. I watched part of this movie in Portree, Scotland, in 2018. I was so tired after a long day of activity that I fell asleep before it was over. I later purchased it on DVD, and finally we watched it all the way through. I love this movie! Jake Gyllenhaal plays a young man who becomes a freelance crime video photographer in Los Angeles. You never know whether he's innocent or sinister, which keeps the tension high. I highly recommend this movie for anyone who likes thrillers. I could easily watch it again, and probably will in due course.Here is the trailer.
