Joe Biden asks if he looks like a “radical socialist.” I say no, but, he does look much like a socialistic Trojan horse ready for the glue factory. Letter-writers can present believable cases, left or right. What I’ve concluded, though, is a group has taken over the Democratic Party to...

President Trump has divided this country like no other president in history. In my opinion, his inept response to covid-19 has resulted in 228,000 dead Americans and almost 9 million sick. I believe that with four more years of this president, our republic will be in shambles, and this is...

Let’s talk lies. President Trump is accused of repeating 20,000 lies. I can summarize all of his lies into one: Mine is bigger than yours. The only people who care are immature adolescents. That brings me to all of the letters attacking Trump. They all read the same. He is...

As Halloween draws near, A suggestion I offer to allay your fear. Do not be duped by the mainstream press, For they mostly suffer with TDS. Do not vote for the one who calls us chump, Keep the America we love with a vote for Trump! Carl Massart Buffalo Township...

As a drafted Marine Vietnam veteran, I want a president who doesn’t fake bone spurs to avoid the draft and doesn’t believe that STDs was his personal Vietnam. I want a president who respects Gold Star families and heroes like John McCain. I want a president who responds to a...

I have seen many articles about the need for election poll workers in Westmoreland County. I completed the application back in August. As I never got a reply, I called multiple times and was told each time I would get a call back. I did not. Only one time was...

Since President Trump was elected, his enemies have accused him of not believing the “experts” or the “science” on a number of subjects. The two main ones are climate change and the covid-19 virus. When he pulled out of the Paris climate accord, the left went into orbit and blamed...

Joe Biden says he will not tax anyone who makes under $400,000. Why $400,000? The average hard-working retiree who got a pension and has Social Security, along with stocks/bonds and one or two annuities, will have $400,000 or more. You will be taxed on your entire portfolio. This will kill...

Who would have thought it would have come to this? The United States has a president who is a tax-evading, draft-dodging, narcissistic, habitual liar. The future of our country is at risk. I believe the blood of many of those who died from covid-19 is on President Trump’s hands. Early...

With all the historical “facts” being tossed out, I wonder as to their valid sources. Yes, letter-writer Dr. Joel Last (“History lesson on Republicans vs. Democrats,” Sept. 17, TribLIVE) was correct in stating that the Republicans tried to get citizenship for the freed slaves — to their credit; and the...

Although I am in total agreement with Ivo Fronzaglia’s letter “Catholic Church’s abortion stance” (Oct. 4, TribLIVE), it only scratches the surface. His letter was a commentary on Pittsburgh Bishop David Zubik’s letter to his flock as it relates to the upcoming election. In it the bishop says he cannot...

The Supreme Court is our instant replay booth. Votes should be 9-0 maybe 8-1, never 5-4. In football, even opposing sides generally agree. Judicial activism is when a call changes after hundreds of years. All of a sudden in the 1960s, it was discovered, that the Bible and prayer didn’t...

Joe Biden needs, among other things, to take a course in basic economics. He’s said he will raise the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28% because “that will raise a lot of money.” It’s true, but who does he think will pay the increased taxes? Corporations are beholden to...

Regarding Joseph Sabino Mistick’s column “Life will go on after election”: So Mistick longs for the “peaceful transition” of power this time. What about the last one, where the Democrats did everything they could to undermine and subvert that transfer of power? In my opinion, they lied and cheated, used...

Not long ago we were terrified that millions of Mexicans were illegally crossing to victimize Americans. In reality, the crime rates of illegals remain lower than U.S. citizens. We were led to believe the Trump administration rapidly responded to contain the coronavirus pandemic. Truth is, we symbolically addressed the threat,...

The New Kensington and Arnold area has only been a part of state Rep. Frank Dermody’s district for a few short years, and what a blessing that has been to the community. I say that because of the growth and development in our cities, such as the new Affival steel...

Readers who still think the 2020 elections are Biden versus Trump are wrong. This election is the media versus America. The outright hatred shown by the media toward Donald Trump and his supporters is beyond anything seen in modern history. Data from many sources show that more than 90% of...

Just two questions for your readers: Thou shalt not bear false witness is mentioned numerous times in the Bible as a terrible offense in the sight of God. So is tweeting or retweeting messages that you know in your heart are false or misleading a sin before God? Is the...

October is Halloween month, and this is a very different Halloween since everyone is already wearing a mask except the president and some of his supporters. In the White House, we have a reality star who is playing president. In any Halloween game, he would be considered a loser. In...

A recent editorial (“Duquesne prof’s slur use was wrong choice,” Sept. 15, TribLIVE) explained that Black rappers’ use of the “N” word does not give whites license to use it. That editorial was as clear as mud. Do we now have a special dictionary for Black and white? Joe Biden...

Oceanfront property in Arizona!! If you are confident in the repeated Joe Biden/Kamala Harris promises that your taxes will increase only if you earn over $400,000 per year and that only the “rich’” will pay for their expansive spending plans, please contact me ASAP about the above property. Facts matter...

Gov. Tom Wolf won’t give us information to make our own decisions during the covid-19 pandemic. He just issues edicts. All we can see are totals for the county (Donegal to Arnold lumped together) or if we try hard, by ZIP code (15650 is over two townships). Wolf essentially says...

We in the best country in the world are being crippled by lack of leadership. We have an opportunity to change our course of destruction. I believe one man, Joe Biden, will rid us of the horrors that President Trump has unleashed. Black men are being killed, without even a...

The Democratic agenda endorses codifying Roe v. Wade into law, restoring federal funding for major abortion provider Planned Parenthood and abortion on demand, including late-term. Any person who has had sex education or biology classes should know life begins at conception. God’s commandment states “Thou shalt not kill.” God’s commands...

I appreciate the writer’s passion in the letter “Trump is right pro-life choice”. I did, though, feel surprised at the implications that the term “pro-life” is so clear-cut and that the decision for a so-called pro-life president is so obvious, as shown in the letter’s last line: “Very easy choice.”...
