Withhold your taxes of Congress insists on gridlock

I have something on my mind. If members of Congress in this great nation do not come together soon and resolve their differences, then I believe I will withhold my taxes. I am asking you all to do the same. No work, no pay.

I am tired of taxation without representation. We put them in office, through our votes, and they do nothing. No work. And they get to see how many vacations they can take on our dime.

And so I make this plea to all citizens. Follow through and don’t pay these officers of the government unless they can show that they can work together. That’s what they are supposed to do.

I have worked many years and I did my job. It is time for members of Congress to do theirs.

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.
