As an entrepreneur committed to creating jobs and strengthening our community, I believe investing in our future is critical. That’s why I support Proposition 430, the Pima Community College bond.

Trump’s latest comments at rallies should concern all of us. He makes disgusting comments about men and women’s derrières. This is not acceptable behavior for anyone, let alone the president of our country. These comments are vulgar and demeaning whether male or female. While people are stru…

Are you as concerned about the skyrocketing costs of gas, groceries and basic goods as I am? Terrified you too will lose your health insurance in January? Disgusted by ICE arrests, killings, and deportations of US citizens to foreign countries?

President Trump touted to be, according to him, by far, the most superior president this country has ever had the opportunity to experience. As to the constitution he knows that document is quelmafider. His understanding and management of the economy continues to be duilagibish. The Iran war…

I read with amusement the letters crying about the fact that TEP is owned by a Canadian firm that receives profits from their enterprises.

Since WWII, the USA has faced severe challenges from the Soviet Union and China, but we have all been solidly united in embracing our democratic principles founded on our strength as a nation. Let’s put all our political disagreements aside, which are actually healthy, and focus on the real …
Just when you believe that Trump cannot sink any lower he crouches down and digs deeper. During a conference Trump said, "I looked at a beautiful ass before as Nicki Minaj" If you or I had said such a thing in a work place we would be fired immediately, and justifiably so. But of course Trum…
I am trying to select whom I should vote for in the coming election. I keep seeing and hearing which candidate I should vote for according to what color or numbered propositions. I now miss the olde days of the Band wagon 50 feet from the voting booth and donuts and cigars were handed out. A…
Dear fellow Republicans, where do you stand? We all embrace the principles of liberty, justice, and freedom for all citizens. Since the end of WWII, the USA has faced severe challenges by the Soviet Union and China, but we have all been solidly united in embracing our democratic principles f…
As a Goldwater fiscal conservative all my life, Humpty Trumpty has turned me towards knocking all his lackeys off the wall. He will go by himself.
So, now Trump is suing the state of Alaska to prevent certification of the November election results if the Democratic candidate wins. This makes about as much sense as a major league baseball team insisting that a game it lost not be counted in determining which teams will play in the World…
In just 22 months we have gone from being a respected leader of the free world noted for peaceful diplomacy and global humanitarian aid to being universally reviled by foreign countries worldwide.
I imagine you are as tired of the election rhetoric, hatred, and lies as I am. Perhaps it's time to remember that, by tradition, the three great western religions (Christianity, Islam, Judaism) all came from the same root -- all descendants from the same two creatures a Supreme Being created…
Republicans claim the Democrats have no platform other than anti Trump. For me, that’s enough. What did Trump run in 2024?

As a psychotherapist treating child sexual abuse survivors, I am concerned about the impact on survivors of an attack ad Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has directed at his opponent, Dr. Amy Acton. I am also concerned about the ad's contribution to the coarsening of public disco…
I'm curious. What are the American Oil Companies doing, other than raking in huge profits, to our country for the increase in costs caused by fuel shortages? Are they helping (other than themselves) or passively "enjoying the ride"? The Federal government (effectively Trump) are getting way …
How low does the Republican Party have to go, to slander Democratic Candidate JoAnna Mendoza? They are beyond shameful, and obviously scared of JoAnna. Andy Biggs is a has been, always on the side of Republican filth ads. I am a senior citizen and proud member of Tucson’s LGBT community. I a…
When members of Gen Z have a microphone put in front of them, they mention the same things everyone wants: a good job, medical coverage, to buy a home and safe streets. But like everything good, there is a second side that anyone with an understanding of accounting or budgets understands. Ve…

There has been much talk this election cycle about the electorate changes from Red to Blue or Purple. Many seem to think it reflects changing attitudes. I do not. Before COVID there was movement of people from the high tax, high crime, and poor economic opportunities of liberal Blue cities a…

To become an American citizen, each applicant must swear to an oath that in part states the following: "I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have h…
The consequences of elections give the voters exactly what they choose. That includes the selection of the school boards. For anyone wondering how well the choices in the school boards consider the results, ask Google about the Tucson Unified School District ranking and the result is disappo…
In November 2024, farmers loved Trump, probably because they shared their love of God and high moral and family values (laughing emoji here). Trump won 69% of the rural vote (farming country) in 2024.
Affordability is now the apparent primary concern facing voters, out pacing crime, fraud, and climate change. The Republicans have offered a plan which includes rebuilding American industry to provide American jobs instead of off-shoring those jobs, a robust energy independence, removing bur…
A recent political commercial, that appeared to be in support of a Democrat candidate, made a point of denigrating MAGA. It is hard to understand why. ‘Make American Great Again’ seems like a goal that every citizen should want and yet this dream is being used as a derogatory slur. Then agai…
