I was very encouraged by Judge (retired) Quentin Kopp’s article about renaming San Francisco schools [“Recall, Rescind, and Recapitulate in San Francisco,” published April 7 in the Northwest edition]. The San Francisco School Board had decided to strip public schools of the names of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Muir, Father Serra, Paul Revere, Francis…

While Mr. Moore’s commentary on the rise and fall of the economic stability of Chile [“The Fall of Chile Is a Warning to America, published March 31, 2021] has some salient points, he neglects to mention a few of the facts that have had a profound and long-lasting impact on Chileans. In 1969, Salvador Allende…

Where Have All The Soldiers Gone?” A line, of course, from Peter, Paul, and Mary’s iconic song from the ’60s. Some might remember the words and music. If not, dig deeper into the memory bank and try, “Hell No, We Won’t Go.” These were both products of the Vietnam War era, both having a tremendous…

Take full responsibility for ourselves and our families. No excuses. Resist asking the government for help, whether it is a grant, subsidy, waiver, exception as special privileges for our “special interests.” Write letters to news editors, our local legislatures, and Congress. Subscribe to The Epoch Times for excellent reporting, which includes a section clearly labeled…

Thomas Jefferson, our third president, explained that infrastructure improvements could only be accomplished by the states. To change this, a constitutional convention would be needed, because, as James Madison said, the enumerated powers given to the national government did not include the ability to build things like roads and canals. James Polk, our 11th President,…

I am intellectually and financially grateful for your superb overview (so user-friendly) of “Biden Admin’s $2.3 Trillion Infrastructure Plan” [published on April 7]. Whoever created the two-page layout guide is a genius. It is concise and your average astute readership can understand it all in this nucleus infographic. Impartial and factual! As always, kudos to…

There is a major concern, and with good reason, over the viable verbal, and now physical, threats to Taiwan by China. This has been a long time coming. China has been biding its time, waiting for the right opportunity when it perceives the United States as too weak or unwilling to engage in a war…

As former teachers and current property taxpayers in Goodyear, Arizona, we have an important stake in the education of our children. We entrust our children to the Litchfield Elementary School District and expect them to be educated in a positive, safe, nurturing, and reaffirming environment. We also expect that teachers will respect the values we…

President Joe Biden has already earned a failing grade for his own initiatives. He refuses to accept responsibility for his failures and change course. He has been focusing on new initiatives that have nothing to do with the country’s needs. Economic recovery is not Biden’s top priority. His first priority is to retaliate against Trump’s…

I have heard friends and acquaintances opine that President Biden is senile and suffering from dementia and therefore unable to lead. But I recall the story of El Cid (Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar), the Spanish war hero who led his army to victory even after he was dead. The story goes that his corpse was…
