I have been a licensed clinical social worker for many years. I am quite aware of some of Mr. Trump’s weaknesses, negative habits, etc. His narcissistic personality has been noted and discussed by many learned people. His love of self and his needs must be met before the needs of others. He may believe that […]

Liberal and media meltdown
The out-of-control liberal and far left politicians and the media are ruining this country. The liberals and the media said Trump called all undocumented people “animals” – once again, the liberals and the media always take it out of context. President Trump should put MS-13 on a deserted island not in our prisons. President Trump […]

Golden will stand with seniors, veterans
As a senior and a veteran, I am gravely concerned about the massive tax breaks that were passed in Congress this year, and who will pay for them. Medicare was created in 1964 by Lyndon Johnson and since then it has been the target of potential cuts. Some have called Medicare socialism and Republican leaders […]

We need discourse, not bullying
As a taxpayer in Auburn and an Auburn School Department employee, I’m supposed to walk a fine line when it comes to voicing my opinions about school business. I’m a fantastic parent, I could be a better husband, I pay my local property taxes, I never miss a vote, I work my tail off for […]

Think about it
It should be obvious which way we should vote this November. In Washington, the bigoted divider in chief is a hypocrite who publicly opposes chain migration, yet his wife’s parents both arrived here via that route. In Augusta, a similar mean-spirited governor has obstructed citizen-backed referendums that would increase the minimum wage, expand medicaid and […]

Basilica in need of repairs
Recently my son, JeanCarl, and I returned to Lewiston to make presentations on the SS. Peter and Paul Basilica. We thank those who attended and also the time and love provided by numerous wonderful folks. You are great people! Unfortunately, we discovered, and photographed, inexcusable damage that is slowly destroying your Central Maine gem. Evident […]

We exist in a free market
This letter is in regard to your story “Companies avoid gun business.” Sen. Mike Crapo of Idaho believes businesses that decide where they wish to invest or spend their money are replacing government regulation. That’s absurd. Choice is the essence of what free markets are all about. Furthermore, to gun owners of America, I’d like […]

SNAP participants are not failing
Every year SNAP helps 40 million people buy the food they need to feed themselves and their family. It is one of the country’s most important safety nets. We have been fed the lie that those who participate in SNAP are undeserving because it’s the only way to justify the morally reprehensible fact that in […]

Jared Golden will bring us together
As a veteran, a mother and factory worker, I’m really angry at the record of my congressman, Bruce Poliquin. This year, he’s voted to give tax breaks to millionaires and giant corporations, while supporting cuts to critical safety programs like SNAP that our seniors, kids and veterans depend on. I worked so hard to pass […]

Drivers, be aware of pets
There is a farm on my road that had a very sweet dog. He lived outside with the animals and kept an eye on them. Whenever we walked by, he would run out to greet us with a little happy dance and woof. I would give him dog biscuits and pat him on the head. […]
