LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Weak, compromised Biden will ruin us
We should hope and pray that President Trump wins this election. A Biden presidency would be doomed before it began, considering Joe Biden's cognitive deterioration, compromised negotiating position as a result of his duplicitous foreign business enterprises and the crushing of his party's blue wave under the weight of its own radicalism.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Voter fraud nothing new
Just like in the charade of the 2020 American presidential election, dead people also voted for JFK in 1960 — and the press covered it up the way they covered up details of his assassination and nearly everything about the war in Vietnam until Nixon became president in 1969.

EDITORIAL: Republicans, not Democrats, emerge as the multi-racial working-class party
On Election Day, in response to exit poll data coming out of Florida indicating that President Trump had garnered the support of Hispanics and Blacks, Josh Kraushaar, a columnist at National Journal, tweeted, "The path forward for the GOP: multiracial working-class party." To which Sen. Josh Hawley, Missouri Republican, responded: "Uh, yea." Published November 5, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Election theft is no lie
It is absolutely the case that a great election robbery is underway right now in the U.S. The signs are obvious, and similar to those here in the U.K., where mail-in fraud is a fact of life. Published November 5, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Left, beware businessman Trump
I really don't want President Trump to lose his reelection challenge, but if he does, there is a silver or platinum lining in this dark cloud. Published November 5, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Let governments oversee cryptocurrency
In "Will America or China be No. 1 in cryptocurrency?" (Web, Nov. 4), Jared Whitley puts forth the argument that the "right kind of leadership from Washington on cryptocurrency" can help ensure that China "doesn't supplant America as the No. 1 economy in the world." Published November 5, 2020
EDITORIAL: Pennsylvania makes sport of the presidential election
Hold the confetti. America has spoken, but the final outcome of the 2020 presidential election is still a secret. Most of the credit, or discredit, goes to Pennsylvania. Rather than a keystone from which it takes its nickname, the commonwealth has tossed a brick at the fragile U.S. election system. Americans pondering their future course can do nothing but wait.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Give D.C. back to Maryland
For those proposing to make Washington, D.C., a state, here is a better idea. In 1790, Congress created a perfectly square federal district straddling both the Potomac River's Virginia and Maryland sides. In 1846, Congress ceded the Virginia side back to Virginia. Published November 4, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: ‘Church’ of the Democrats
We are great followers. Without a compass, life has no meaning. We must follow a line of authority. Our leaders have feet of clay, metaphorically underscored by the recent destruction of statues of our ancestors. Published November 4, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: ‘Division’ a sign of common sense
I am so tired of hearing pundits moan about how divided we are. Thank God we are divided. For those of us who love liberty, we can only cringe at the idea that our country might not be divided, and that everyone might be in favor of the current trend toward socialism. Published November 4, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Democrats savor unrest
Regardless of who ends up the victor in Tuesday's presidential election, rioting, looting, shootings and general mayhem should not be tolerated, no matter where they may occur. But as with everything else regarding President Trump and this election, the leftist news media are doing their best to assure that tensions and unrest remain high post-election. Published November 3, 2020
EDITORIAL: Strengthen the ties that bind, America
At the time of this writing much of America is heading toward the polls. Then they are heading home, sheltering in place and waiting. Fear and uncertainty are high, especially for small shopkeepers in major U.S. cities who have — in anticipation of unbridled anarchy and rioting by those on the left — boarded up their storefronts. If President Trump is reelected, they know the carnage nightfall could bring. Published November 3, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Left’s anti-racism moves misguided
Many self-serving people who think of themselves as being liberal might consider me a racist because I treat Blacks as equals. There are exceptions, people to whom I don't measure up, such as Thomas Sowell, Condoleezza Rice and Candace Owens, because their credentials far exceed mine. Published November 3, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Harris’ Israel agenda disastrous
While Sen. Kamala Harris was unwilling to talk about President Trump in the run-up to the election, she was eager to speak about the future of the Israeli-Arab conflict under a Biden presidency. For all those interested in the security of Israel, her words should have chilling effect. Published November 3, 2020
EDITORIAL: The democratic process, though imperfect, is still unmatched
Thanksgiving is still a couple of weeks away, but the chance to have a say in the nation's leadership is not to be overlooked as an occasion for gratitude. The fact that over most of the nation, Election Day dawned bright and crisp — perfect elements for poll lines — is all the more reason for a hat tip toward our shared good fortune. Weather may remain beyond human control, every American adult is endowed with the privilege of casting a vote no less weighty than any other. Published November 2, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Right candidate will win out
Summer 2020 was impacted by catastrophic political maneuvers steering our country and citizens towards today's election. Published November 2, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Boy Scouts doing right thing
The Boy Scouts of America has agreed to set up a victim compensation fund for children victimized by Boy Scouts staff and management. I think this is a wonderful acknowledgement from a once-esteemed organization. From 2017 to 2019 Boys Scouts of America paid more than $150 million to make right the past wrongs committed against children. Abused in Scouting is a group 8,000 men strong, and they are united against this abuse and are advocates for children. Published November 2, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Democrats’ Pavlovian ways
Ivan Pavlov was a physiologist who, while experimenting with dogs, food and the ringing of a bell, discovered classical conditioning. His dogs were conditioned to salivate at the sound of a bell. Published November 2, 2020
EDITORIAL: Trump bore scrutiny, Biden bars it
The contrast in the competing presidential campaigns could hardly be more stark: One candidate colors with care inside the lines while the other draws a scene to his own liking. Published November 1, 2020
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Quality vs. quantity
At this point, it ought to be obvious that the novel coronavirus is 120 nanometers in diameter and is highly transmissible. The lockdowns did not do much of anything to contain the virus, and they did absolutely nothing to eradicate it. Kudos were plentiful for the European lockdown champions six months ago, but look at Europe now. Published November 1, 2020
