Letters to the Editor

Sound off!

U.S. Rep. Mike Rulli: 36 consecutive days of paid vacation. Zero town hall meetings. One pedo king protected. — Canfield Now that we know Donny pardons people he doesn’t know (I am sure through AutoPen), will some Trumper please explain his latest rant. He carps about how some of his ICE soldiers (and real soldiers) are being “attacked” while at work. He rants that those “attackers” should be thrown in jail. Why then was he OK pardoning his rioters (or as he calls them “patriots”) that savagely beat up the police that were defending the Capitol? — Youngstown Woke ...

Letter of thanks to veterans from Patriot Hospice

DEAR EDITOR: Dear veterans, Today, we pause — not just to remember history, but to honor you, the living proof of courage and commitment. You have stood where others could not, faced what others feared, and carried the weight of duty so that freedom could stand tall. Veterans Day is more than a date on the calendar. It is a promise — that we will never forget the price paid for our peace, our voice, our home. It is a day to say, with full hearts and steady voices: Thank you. For the long nights away from family, for the unseen scars and the silent strength, for your ...

Save America from all those who will destroy it

DEAR EDITOR: Do people remember Obama saying if people vote for him they would get free phones, free education and free food? Now on SNAP, 42 million people are on it. Now in New York, if you vote for Mamdani, he will raise your taxes even higher, then attack the landlords to make rent free. They have bills and families, too. Then the crime will take over with no more police to protect you. Obama and Mamdani never had a job that put people to work. New York was attacked on Sept. 11, 2001. Now it will be destroyed. Businesses will close, no jobs, no homes will be allowed. Free busing. ...

Iran’s Sharia Law and our Christian nationalism

DEAR EDITOR: First, a couple of brief definitions to highlight similarities … and there are many. Sharia Law: The foundation of Iran’s legal and, hence, its political system, is based on the Shia interpretation of Islamic law. This impacts family law, personal status and criminal code, mandating adherence to religious principles that influence everything from clothing to marriage, inheritance and punishments like amputation for certain crimes. The legal system is heavily influenced by the clergy — Iran is a theocracy whose leader is Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the country’s ...

Ohio SAVE Act would attack voters’ rights

DEAR EDITOR: The Ohio General Assembly has under consideration the “Ohio SAVE Act”. It’s an attack on our voting rights and on our right to amend the Ohio Constitution. These rights are fundamental to a democracy, and we need to protect them! The Ohio SAVE Act does just the opposite. It’s intended to restrict who can vote without any evidence of fraud or abuse. And it’s intended to make it more difficult to adopt voter initiatives without any evidence of abuse. This Act is nothing more than an effort by the General Assembly to protect themselves from the will of ...

Some important questions to consider

DEAR EDITOR: This is a letter of questions about the law of our country, the Constitution of the United States of America. It is also a letter of questions regarding the adherence to law by the governing bodies of the United States of America. It also raises questions pertaining to the citizens of the United States and our participation in government. The last time I read the Constitution and Declaration of Independence was in junior high school. Although I took classes in law school and reviewed cases corresponding to federal and state laws (Constitutionally derived laws) I was not ...
