More money in my retirement check!

I would like to personally thank Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto and Rep. Jacky Rosen for the $100-plus bump that I just received in my Air Force retirement check. I know that it was through their efforts the the “crumbs” being offered by the Republicans were turned into a substantial increase in my monthly check.

Oh, wait, that’s right. They were the ones who sat on their hands, just as they did during the recent State of the Union address, and did everything they could to derail the tax cuts that are already boosting the entire U.S. economy. I’ll be sure to remember their efforts when the next election comes around.

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.

LETTER: Clark County cracks down on street vendors

A lot of us walk or jog in the summer nights when it cools down. The juice vendor was a wonderful break before starting the return half of our exercise. Alas, never more.
