To the editor: The letter writer who defended evangelical Christians' support of former President Trump was at least partially correct — God does accomplish great things through imperfect people. However, his reference to the biblical story of King David doesn't support the notion that God was pleased with how he did things. For the most part, the kings of Israel were such a bad bunch that they led their people into idolatry and ultimately into utter destruction. In the case of David, unlike our...
To the editor: Buried more than 20 paragraphs into your article on the presidential candidates' instances of dishonesty and mistakes, there is a statement by Joe Biden that is propped up as a lie that justifies this comparison to Donald Trump. President Biden's "lie"? That he visited ground zero in New York the day after 9/11, when he actually went nine days later. Contrasting this misstatement with the torrent of lies and malicious fabrications that flow nonstop from former President Trump, and...
In response to editorial on ceasefire I read today’s paper while visiting my in-laws in Lowell and your recent editorial called for a permanent Gaza ceasefire, did not include hostage release. First, Hamas repeatedly declared its intention to carry out multiple Oct 7ths and called for Oct 13th as a day to kill Jews a […]
The Abraham Accords -- signed by Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Israel and Bahrain in 2020 -- were gaining traction.
The Democratic Party leadership wants more funding to hire more Border Patrol agents so they can process and allow more immigrants into our country -- and then distribute those people throughout the United States.
Letter: Each April, people across the world join together to advocate for our planet. This Earth Day (April 22), the American Red Cross of South Carolina is joining the celebration and reaffirming our commitment to sustainability.

Professional, genocide-chanting social justice martyrs are gladly professing their support for terrorists who murder, rape and torture. It is beyond comprehension that people today can knowingly and deliberately choose to side with […]
I was reading an article last week about members of the "Squad" demanding that anti-Jewish protesters be released and allowed to resume their terrorist-supporting activities -- and I have to say, this just shows that these members of Congress hate Jews.
Tulsi Gabbard is the smartest and bravest potential vice presidential candidate in America right now, in my opinion, because she speaks the truth.
Flipped Eclipse? I think the time-lapse picture of the eclipse on the cover of the April 10 issue is flipped. We watched from Montpelier, and the shadow wedge entered from the bottom and traveled up the sun. After totality, there was a sudden wedge of bright white light at the bottom that looked like the sun was shining a spotlight on us. It was not the golden sunlight; it was brilliant white and produced sharp-edged shadows. At the end, there was not the wedge we started with; rather, it looked...
There is a fundamental flaw in Everett Piper’s argument in “The heart of Donald Trump and the immutable truth” (web, April 13).
It is time to say what the Biden administration is desperate to hide.
