More than hypocrisy Dear Editor, A recent article stated that hypocrisy is a symptom of Trump Derangement syndrome. That most definitely is correct. But hypocrisy is not the sole symptom, it is joined by hate, intentional blindness, and jealousy. Everything that Trump is currently doing has been done by previous presidents including the most recent three Democrats in Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden even though Biden didn’t and still doesn’t know he did! Some of the actions are, but not limited to, bombing of other countries without Congressional approval, ...

Too many questions were left unanswered. Too much silence followed. That is why the recent work of the United Nations, through independent experts appointed by the UN Human Rights Council, matters.

What these experts describe confirms what many have long suspected: this was not ...

It sounds like a good idea and I wish them luck. Gregory Burkett, Warren Minnesota’s mess Dear Editor, Five years ago, one could’ve predicted the chaos in Minneapolis. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and director of Homeland Security ...

Our right to protest Dear Editor, They fled horrible situations, degradation, governments allied against them, slavery and no opportunity for better lives.They fled north, enduring hardships of all kinds, even death. They sought havens and there were those who assisted them in their flight to a better life. Today there are historical markers along the Underground Railroad routes they traveled and places that gave shelter. The Cynthia Catlin Miller Pennsylvania Historical Marker north of Sugar Grove is such as she and her neighbors ignored the harsh Compromise of 1850s provision ...

Organizer thanks community for Operation Christmas Child support

Dear Editor, The overwhelming generosity of the people of Warren County and the surrounding area helped provide joy to children in need through Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts this season. Over 5,450 shoeboxes collected at Pleasant Community Church in Warren were delivered to the Samaritan’s Purse processing center. Shoebox gifts from Warren, Crawford and Erie counties were then sent on to Thailand, Panama, Honduras, Equador, Colombia and Guatemala for distribution to children ages 2-14. Shoebox packers brought joy and hope to children around the world through fun, full, ...
