  • Hollie Colahan and Norberto J. (Bert) Castro Special to the Arizona Daily Star

      Local opinion: Protect Education Act petitions and your tax dollars

      A letter argues that Arizona’s Protect Education Act would not eliminate ESA vouchers, but instead add accountability and oversight to a program that has expanded far beyond its original purpose of serving students with disabilities.

        Letter: Response to Tim Stellar's column

        • Steve Basile, Midtown

        Tim Steller’s recent column on the University of Arizona encampments crossed a significant line by casually advancing genocide accusations against Israel. He implies history is steadily validating one side’s moral claims on one of the world’s most disputed and emotionally charged conflicts.

                  Cruelty has a new champion. Donald Trump has proven worthy of the title. He looks under every stone to find ways to create trouble and suffering for the least of us. He is making his mark on the world with his hateful grimace and hard heart.

                    Why do people lie? It is simple to hide something that will hurt them, and for many other reasons. So why did President Trump say he won the election of 2020 presidential election. Albeit he lost the election. He claims the election was stolen from him; albeit the courts say different. This …

                      Decluttering till death do we part | Froma Harrop

                        Margareta Magnusson was an artist in Stockholm who wrote a bestselling book, "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning." Decluttering, the removal of unnecessary items from our living spaces, had already become an international obsession. That was doubly so for Americans, whose large houses became easy repositories for the cheap goods arriving by container ship from low-wage countries.

                          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.

                          The Herald has missed its mark in offering us reassurance of the court’s stability and the strength of democracy. And when it values confidence over honest scrutiny, its words ring hollow.
