LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: A melancholy Fourth?
This Fourth of July celebrate those intrepid American Founders whose signatures on the Declaration of Independence guaranteed their death by hanging should their cause (considered a long shot at the time) have failed. Truly, these Founders were the very embodiment of spirited, bold and prescient leadership that stands in stark contrast to today's weak Republican Congress. Published July 2, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Stop hijacking Bible
Social-justice warriors and religious leaders should stop misusing the word of God to justify lawless behavior ("Suddenly, the left loves Leviticus," Web, June 24). Published July 2, 2018
EDITORIAL: Several Democratic senators want to hobble rights of the religious
The Do No Harm Act, proposed by several Democrats in the U.S. Senate ranging from the far left to the farther left, is a sneaky case of mislabeling. If there were truth in marketing, it would be called the Do A Lot of Harm Act. Published July 1, 2018
EDITORIAL: Despite protests by allies, the U.S. agrees to ignore several trouble spots
John Bolton, the president's national security adviser, has completed a meeting in Moscow to talk about an agenda for the Trump-Putin agenda later this month in Helsinki, and the talk was about "strategic stability in the world, control over nuclear weapons and, in general, a disarmament dossier." Published July 1, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Mueller probe all smoke
After reading more and more about the investigation into President Trump's supposed collusion with Russia, Robert Mueller sounds more and more like Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, Joseph Stalin's hit man. Under Beria, over 500 NKVD agents and 30,000 Red Army officers were executed. In addition, the NKVD was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of ordinary Soviet citizens convicted of high treason by false, sometimes even absurd, accusations.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Wanted: Wilson, Pershing resolve
In 1916, in response to Pancho Villa's gang raiding a New Mexico town and other Mexican gangs attacking and killing Americans inside U.S. borders, President Woodrow Wilson dealt with the incursion post haste. He dispatched Gen. John J. Pershing with some 200,000 troops, to hunt down the gangs inside Mexican borders. Published July 1, 2018
EDITORIAL: Opportunity in Helsinki
There's something about Helsinki, dark and cold in winter but bright and sunny in summer, that lends itself to meetings of global importance. The usually sleepy Finnish capital hard by the Russian border made its debut on the world stage in 1975, when it was host to a 35-nation meeting that changed the course of relations between the Soviet Union and the West, and produced the Helsinki Accords. Later this month, President Trump and the Russian President Vladimir Putin, will finally meet face-to-face at their first summit. Published June 28, 2018
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Scared of Americans
Americans scare anti-Americans. Published June 28, 2018
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Bowser champion of immigrants
As the Trump administration continues to make immigrants feel less and less secure in this country, they are wondering who they can trust. Published June 28, 2018
Cathy Gainor set to join The Washington Times
Cathy Gainor, a former news editor at The Washington Times, is returning to her journalistic roots to become the newspaper's managing editor. Published June 28, 2018
EDITORIAL: Justice Kennedy exit gives Trump a rare opportunity to realign the nation’s courts
Justice Anthony Kennedy finally announced his long-awaited and highly anticipated exit from the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday, enabling President Trump to appoint a steady conservative successor. The High Court is stuck, like a needle on an old phonograph record, with a succession of 5 to 4 decisions reflecting the deep and unbridgeable division of the nine justices. Published June 27, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Get the truth out
As our lion and President Donald Trump returns from his America-first dominance at both G-7 and the North Korea summits and 2018 election rallies, Bill and Hillary Clinton's shadow-impeachment strategies and media-domination ploys continue. Published June 27, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Take hard line on border — now
No more liberal, open borders or free entry to the U.S. must be allowed. We lost control of our border under previous administrations. Control must be restored. This inhumane wreckage on America has created immense strains on our national security, wealth and social justice. Published June 27, 2018
EDITORIAL: Women drivers hit the road in Saudi Arabia, and the sky hasn’t fallen yet
Women in Saudi Arabia have been driving for almost a week and, to the surprise of some of the imams, the sky is still in its customary place. By eliminating the prohibition, Saudi Arabia relieves itself of the dubious distinction as the only nation anywhere forbidding women behind the wheel of an automobile. Published June 26, 2018
EDITORIAL: The Supreme Court upholds the president’s right to bar questionable migrants
The U.S. Supreme Court had a lesson Tuesday for the good-hearted folk who would apply feelings instead of the Constitution to the interpretation of the law. By the familiar 5 to 4 vote on constitutional issues, the High Court upheld the clear language of Congress in support of President Trump's order limiting the entry of risky foreign nationals to the United States.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Amtrak should look to Greyhound
For Amtrak to thrive in today's world, it should be similar to Greyhound. Greyhound has staffed stations, and Amtrak should have the same. Amtrak has many unstaffed stations at former ticket booths and baggage checks that used to be staffed, but it should restaff many of those stations with contracted people who can do ticketing and baggage check, with some places also doing package shipping. Published June 26, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Call a spade a spade?
Perhaps instead of calling them illegal aliens or undocumented immigrants, we should call these people what they really are: criminal invaders. Why should criminal invaders get court dates? Why should they get welfare? Why should they have any legal rights or consideration at all? They are uninvited, they cause overcrowding, they bring disease and crime, they are a substantial financial burden and they kill 25 American citizens per day. The whole illegal-alien issue is nothing more than a globalist plot. And globalism is treason. Published June 26, 2018
EDITORIAL: It’s grilling time for Peter Strzok, the FBI’s grand inquisitor
It may be lonely at the top, but it's even lonelier just below. That's where Peter Strzok , the rogue FBI agent, can expect to find himself this week as he submits to a congressional grilling about his role in the FBI investigations of the presidential campaigns of both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Though the testimony is likely to be behind closed doors, it's in the court of public opinion that Mr. Strzok must demonstrate that his words and acts were not part of a scheme to subvert an American presidential election.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Left-only restaurants
Last week, Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen was heckled by fellow diners at a Washington restaurant and ended up leaving the establishment to avoid an escalation of the situation. White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked by the owners of a quaint restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, to take her business elsewhere ("Sanders: I was 'told to leave' Virginia restaurant because I work for President Trump," Web, June 23). The justification for this less-than-hospitable reception? These two women happen to work for the administration of President Donald Trump. Published June 25, 2018
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: ‘Complain train’ going nowhere
Democrats are under the false impression that complaining about President Trump is the way to win back the people. What they fail to realize is that the American people were fed up with their rotten leadership and denied them the power to continue destroying our country. Published June 25, 2018
