  • It seems as if Americans have forgotten what happened to the world in the mid-20th century when Germany, Italy, Russia and Japan were taken over by dictators.

    In the United States today, a president sits in the White House apparently with the same idea in mind.

    Our representatives in Congress are so well paid that they couldn’t care less. So we had better wake up.

  • Nancy just said she “just doesn’t understand why?” Very simply, without a Wall it all doesn’t work. Our Country has a chance to greatly reduce Crime, Human Trafficking, Gangs and Drugs. Should have been done for decades. We will not Cave!

  • To the editor:

    I agree with just about everything in Heffernan’s column. I would also offer an important reminder about the hypocritical behavior of many “Christian” Trump supporters who seem not the least disturbed by his moral turpitude.

    Granted, moral turpitude is typically used as a legal concept that connotes conduct that shocks the public conscience. Where has Christian conscience been during the blatant moral abomination of his election campaign and presidency?

    Many Christians presumably consider moral law as transcendent to secular law. Natural law, in particular, is often invoked to express the sovereignty of eternal moral principles. Based on the common sense of natural law as applied to all humanity, Trump would certainly be judged as unworthy of any role in public life.

    Why do so many of Trump’s Christian supporters give the president a free pass?

  • I apologize to the Covington Catholic boys. What Rod Dreher says of himself goes double for me. I jumped the gun and that was stupid and unjust. It is I, not the boys, who needs to take a lesson from this.

    I have long admired Princeton professor Robert P. George for his civility, his judgment, his temperance, and his decency. Unfortunately, his hatred for Donald Trump has corrupted his judgment. Social media compounds the problem by allowing him to shoot from the hip. Professor George should go back to writing books and articles.
