According to multiple government agencies (“US warns about hacking effort aimed at water plants”, 8/20/26), artificial intelligence is being used to “compromise” basic American infrastructure. It’s now clear that A.I. has the power, “in the wrong hands”, to commit some drastic act of sabotag…

Word is out that Trump may be named on a new aircraft carrier earlier scheduled to be named after Doris Miller. As you should know Miller, during the Pearl Harbor debacle rushed to a smoking deck and took control of an aircraft gun he had no training in. He opened fire on Japanese planes, do…

As the captain of a boat on the Maine coast, Turkey, Tonga, and the British Virgin Islands, I am well aware of "Duty, Honor, Responsibility, Leadership"--- the reasons a captain never abandons the ship. The captain not only has a moral responsibility, but this has been codified into maritime…

100 Billion dollars paid to major corporations in rebates. I will not list them here because I want everyone reading this to research the numbers, maybe then you will believe it. So, in addition to that wonderful Tax Reduction they received, do the math and figure out the net paid into the F…
We know that Trump must pay a woman over five million dollars because of his sexual abuse and defamation. How can we, in any way shape or form say this demented person is someone we want leading our nation?
Typically the occupant of the White House spends approximately 2.5 million dollars for its yearly maintenance. Trump is on line to spend 875 million dollars for the current year. He is like a child wanting every toy in every child's toybox except he has all money in the US government to back…
Trump has sided with Russia, North Korea and Saudi Arabia. And now is against Canada, Mexico, South Korea and other allies. Tell me with a straight face that he is not a traitor to the American people.
Here's a simple "what is a" test: See if you can answer each of these ten questions?
When we stopped confronting people who used the word illegal rather than undocumented, we gave those who wanted to separate us and blame others great power. Republican leaders, like Trump, knew just how to use it for their own power. Not having papers was and still is a simple misdemeanor. B…
It should surprise no one that DJT, commander in cheat, AKA cadet bone-spurs would again demonstrate cowardice at some hint of danger. This time during that Air Force One fiasco in Turkey. Nor should anyone miss the irony of Trunp's well earned sobriquet " TACO MAN" (Trump Always Chickens Ou…
Who is the communist?
The repeal of the "Law of the River" as suggested by an August 15 LTE is so much easier to propose than to achieve. About 30 American Indian tribes have had senior rights to the water long before the existence of the seven western states that are usually part of the Colorado River story. In …
Pete Hegseth should go to Iran. It will all be over in a few days. Give him a ship. Give him a shield so he can play out his Captain America fantasies. Better test his testosterone before he goes, though, to make sure he’s manly enough for the mission.

If Karl Marx put on a red MAGA hat and promised a tax cut, MAGAs would vote for him. Biggs is playing a shell game with voters, proposing to cut one tax and increase another. It’s going to bite him. 30 years of Republican majority in AZ legislature proves they can't manage 5th grade math.

The state of Israel is doing to the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank what Germany did to its ancestry. A genocide. It’s horrifying to see such suffering and heartbreaking to know that no one is stopping it. Our leadership in this country is the worst in Trump and his rotten soul. Howev…
Thank you, Kathleen Parker, for perpetuating the myth that socialism is evil, capitalism good. However, your message is uninformed. I never heard any Democratic Socialist candidate say they want a complete government takeover of private ownership. I do hear them say the billionaire class sho…
