Robert Casimiro’s Dec. 26 rebuttal of Catherine Rampell’s Dec. 16 column reads suspiciously like she hit very close to home. His use of the words “alleged presidential victory of Joe Biden” is a sign that he is one of the over 40 million people in this country who have fallen for the cynical scam (recycled […]

Musical icon Carroll Poulin passed away recently. I had the privilege of interviewing him to conduct his oral history for Museum L-A regarding his love and knowledge of Lewiston-Auburn music. We honored Carroll as “Mr. Music Man” in our Power of Music exhibit. His admiration for today’s new musicians was that they are not afraid […]

I wish to commend Mayor Mark Cayer, who with City Council support created the “Mayoral Ad Hoc Committee on Equity and Diversity.” The committee appointed by the mayor had a good mix of diverse residents and city officials. The many committee meetings were made available to the public via Zoom presentations. I had the opportunity […]

I worked in industry and engineering for many years. Thirty-five years ago a movement began, supported and encouraged by government, to convert our economy from manufacturing durable goods to a service industry. Good paying jobs with benefits were sacrificed for low paying jobs with no benefits. The word of the day was offshore, with these […]

That way, people can stop taking unemployment money, and the unemployment fund can start building […]

Catherine Rampell’s Dec. 16 opinion piece, “The GOP reckoning that never came,” asserts that the Republican Party has been taken over by a radical group, and that the party should use the alleged presidential victory of Joe Biden as a signal to expunge this radical influence. If Ms. Rampell had presented a reasoned argument, this […]

This holiday season continues to be difficult for all of us, but for many of our neighbors, the challenges have been particularly severe. Among the most affected are those experiencing food insecurity, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture defines as a lack of adequate and consistent access to nutritious food. Pre-COVID, the U.S.D.A. estimated that […]

Thank you to the Savage Brothers. Thank you for standing on the principles of our Mayflower ancestors. God calls us all to stand and stand more and having done all to stand. Thank you to the Sun Journal for printing the Maine bicentennial column each day. We need to build on these peoples’ shoulders. Our […]

When Barack Obama stated in one of his speeches that America is “no longer a Christian nation,” he spit in the face of all born-again Christians. Now Kamala Harris is trying to advance his anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian rhetoric. America has always been an ally of Israel. God states in his word that “whoever blesses Israel will […]
