THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Kill Fauci’s dog-torture project

I was appalled and disgusted to read "In dog testing debacle, Fauci isn't 'following the science'" (Web, Aug. 26). One of Dr. Fauci's NIH divisions authorized experimental drugs infected with biting flies to be fed to laboratory beagles, who become ill, necessitating frequent blood draws. Eventually they kill "Snoopy." It must be excruciatingly painful to be eaten alive by this parasite. Indeed, technicians reported the dogs "vocalizing," which means screaming in agony.

Time for GOP to bare claws

The Biden administration is emblematic of waste -- waste of opportunities in the foreign arena (think Afghanistan, Iran, Russia and China) and waste of taxpayer dollars domestically ("Biden's vacuous mind drawing villainy into Afghanistan and America's backyard," Web, Aug. 29).

Party or country?

The Democrats in the House and Senate seem to be more party members than Americans. Not all, but the majority. It appears now that not all of the Americans in Afghanistan will be evacuated, as was initially said by the talking heads of the Biden administration. The narrative changed to 'All who wanted out would get out.' But many could not for a variety of reasons (i.e., family, distance away or being turned away by our new, friendly Taliban).

Americans left behind in Afghanistan, blood is on Biden’s hands

The majority of Americans indeed wanted out of the 'forever war' in Afghanistan. Published August 30, 2021

Vaccination-check mandates will kill more restaurants

More than 110,000 restaurants and bars were put out of business in 2020 by COVID-19, in no small part by the seemingly endless, ever-morphing rules by left-wing Democratic mayors and governors. Published August 29, 2021

Consequences will be deadly, long-lasting

President Biden is a bungling disgrace as our commander and chief and should be removed from office immediately. He has left thousands of Americans behind enemy lines in Afghanistan. The lives and freedom of these American citizens' are in the hands of America's brutal enemy, the Taliban. Published August 29, 2021

May abandonment define Biden

In the midst of the Civil War, President Lincoln told Congress: "The fiery trial through which we pass will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation." Lincoln's trial lit him down in high honor. Not so with President Biden's trial. Published August 29, 2021

Pierce, Buchanan now have competition

Presidents Pierce and Buchanan must be smirking from their graves. Published August 29, 2021

Extremism thrives on fear

Radicals or extremists are not created by accident. Out of fear or hope, moderates may even sometimes grasp for extremists, believing that they can achieve what is needed. Published August 26, 2021

Voters wanted this?

Our Founders obligated the people to control the government -- therefore our government does what the people tell it to do. Published August 26, 2021

All near-term options lousy

We are in a real mess and have no good choices for getting out of it. The options are as follows: 1. Biden clings to office. 2. He resigns and we get Kamala Harris for president. 3. He's impeached and we still get Harris. 4. He's removed by provisions of the 25th Amendment and -- you guessed it -- we get Harris. 5. He dies. We get Harris. 6. Both Biden and Harris are somehow removed from office -- and we get Nancy Pelosi as president. Published August 26, 2021

Biden’s impeachable offense

As of Thursday, the U.S. had evacuated more than 100,000 people from Afghanistan. Less than 5% were American citizens. Published August 26, 2021

Something is rotten in Washington

Since Inauguration Day in January, our nation has changed from an energy-independent net exporter of oil and gas to an energy-dependent OPEC beseecher. Our southern border has been opened and we have enticed everyone in the world to come here with our promises of shelter, health care, education, etc. As a result, drugs, trafficked humans, terrorists, gang members and diseases of all types are entering.

How many boosters, Joe?

COVID-19 booster shots for all fully vaccinated Americans is nothing but a smokescreen to divert attention from the critical issues currently gripping our nation. These, of course, include the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan and the U.S.-Mexico border crisis. Published August 25, 2021

Lack of foresight shocking

"New border asylum policy would strain DHS's finances" (Web, Aug. 19) only further demonstrates the ineptitude that epitomizes the Biden administration. It is as if Joe thought ending the Trump policy of keeping migrants waiting in Mexico would somehow not balloon the number of unapproved border arrivals to a rate of over 2 million a year.

Bideninflation is here to stay

When President Donald J. Trump left office, the average price for a large French fry at McDonald's was $1.89. A double quarter pounder with cheese cost $4.79, a Big Mac $3.99, Filet O Fish $3.79. Published August 25, 2021

Why would socialism work this time?

From the moment of our founding as a country, there have always been very strong partisan disagreements -- but there has also traditionally been patriotism and love of country on both sides. Published August 24, 2021

Biden presidency a stain on U.S. history

There is no longer any doubt in my mind that the establishment rigged the election of a U.S. presidency and gave that presidency to the two worst people imaginable: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Published August 24, 2021

Offer different financial incentive

Has anyone come up with a response to an employer demanding vaccine compliance? I think many people might agree to take the vaccine in order to keep their jobs if their company agreed to pay their family $350,000 in the event they die after receiving the inoculation. Why? The airlines pay that amount if they kill you on your flight. Published August 24, 2021
