Immigration ‘Invasion’ Occurring At Border
Immigration ‘Invasion’ Occurring At Border
Jan. 10, 2023 Editor, The News Gazette: I am thankful to N-G columnist Glenn Rose for reassuring us that there is no immigration crisis at our borders. During the last three years, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), over 6 million illegal immigrants have entered the United States from countries around the world. Data from the U.S. Border Patrol and Office of Field Operations show that the average number of encounters under the current administration reached totals of approximately 189,000 per month, more than three times higher than the average of 51,000 per month under the previous administration. 01/16/2024 11:00 PM
Ben Cline’s Endorsement Of Trump Praised
Ben Cline’s Endorsement Of Trump Praised
Jan. 12, 2024 Editor, The News-Gazette: Liberals this week were very about Rep. Cline’s endorsement of Donald Trump. The concern in coming out of Lexington was palpable. Really just off the chart concern… Let me tell you what those of us in the real world are concerned about. We can’t afford groceries. Food prices are over 20% higher than 2020. The Biden administration has spent more money in the first three years of a presidency than any in American history. Where did this money come from? The Federal Reserve printed it, ballooned the money supply, and created the worst inflation crises in our lifetimes. 01/16/2024 11:00 PM

Need For Airport Questioned
Jan. 11, 2024 Editor, The News-Gazette: We agree with Supervisor Bob Day! “Why build an airport for private planes?” And, we might add, why use public money — a hefty sum of it — to even study the idea? 01/16/2024 11:00 PM

Are Trump Biden ‘Best America Has To Offer?
Jan. 15, 2024 Editor, The News-Gazette: Being opposed to Donald Trump does not make anyone the opposite of Donald Trump. The presumptive candidates in the upcoming presidential election, Trump and Biden, are unfortunately more alike than different. 01/16/2024 11:00 PM
