        This time it’s environmental, as three of four cottonwood trees, estimated to be over 200 years old, were destroyed July 28 - 29 near Lochiel, San Rafael Valley, apparently for the “crime” of spreading shade across the international boundary – and possibly impeding construction of a second 3…

        • L.W. Johnson, Foothills

        Again, the Daily Star shows its colors. On their Front Page edition of Sat. 08/01 they TRY to Promote that mindless Biden & Trump are similar. Obviously the tabloid has the TDS illness. Nothing on the front page about all the false actions of Fauci.

        Your fourth-grader shouldn’t be worried about AI | Allison Schrager:

          When I was in fourth grade, everyone in my class had grand ideas about what they wanted to be when they grew up: a professional basketball player, a firefighter, a professor (I grew up in a college town), a farmer (that was also in the country).

          Finally inching forward on fixing Social Security | Las Vegas Review-Journal

            Members of Congress for years have metaphorically run for the hills when confronted with the nation’s looming entitlement crisis, opting for inertia over reforms that might be politically risky. But with the Social Security trust fund now set to run dry in just six years, further inaction wi…

                    Letter: What did you say?

                      A letter writer in Wednesday's paper said that the attack on Iran was unprovoked. Are you kidding me? Iran has been financing terrorists to kill Americans for over 47 years. Have you heard of the 90-11 attack? How about the bombing of the US military barracks in Libya? Do you remember that? …

                      Letter: Detaining DACA recipients

                        It is disgusting to see people who have lived here for decades, good people brought here as children, being detained by the vicious actions of the current administration. We were told they would go after criminals and those who recently came illegally. All lies once again.

                              I read with genuine interest the Arizona Daily Star’s recent story about David Hoffmann’s investment in Lee Enterprises and his vision for local newspapers.

                              Local opinion: What leaders like John McCain understood about the truth

                              A defining moment from John McCain’s 2008 campaign is being revisited as a reminder of political integrity, highlighting the importance of correcting misinformation — even within one’s own party — in today’s polarized climate.

                              Arizona Daily Star Editorial: New tactic to come after public lands must be stopped

                              Juan Ciscomani has a pivotal role to play in protecting public lands. It's a role that he must fulfill.
