Letter from John A. Rudy Trump May Prevail In Spite of Charges Donald J. Trump’s indictment and possible conviction and imprisonment in New York—as well as possible future federal or other state indictments, convictions and imprisonments for violations of the criminal statutes of those jurisdictions—will not prevent him from running for president in 2024 even while incarcerated.

Letter from Bruce Beckert Vote! Please Help Save Our Country This election is like none other in our time. It will either cement the global elite’s plan for our country or start us back on a path that will ultimately save this country so our grandchildren can have a lifestyle of freedom and opportunity that we have been so blessed with. The Democrats have gotten used to swaying liberal Republicans, buying key elections with global elites’ dollars or just stealing…
Views Around New York State Suing Georgia over voting rights is just the start From The Albany Times-Union: Georgia was among a host of GOP-controlled states that in the aftermath of Republican Donald Trump’s loss to Democrat Joe Biden for the presidency have intensified efforts to pass laws brazenly aimed at suppressing votes by people of color. Georgia and its defenders offered the weak defense that some of the provisions it passed will expand voting rights, as if a little…
LETTER from SAL FURNARI More Trump Flags On The Way To the Editor: This is a reaction to Consuelo Kraham Velez’s letter in the March 18 edition. And I write this for some of those that are fearful of being canceled because they worry about expressing their beliefs that may not be popular with their employer, their neighbor, or their governing body in their community. Of course we will accept a portion of our money back. Let’s call it a…
LETTER from CONSUELO KRAHAM VELEZ Just Wondering… To the Editor: Recently, my travels took me slightly north of Cooperstown. I was rather surprised to see properties still displaying large Trump flags despite the actual, indisputable fact that he was roundly trounced in the last election. Will the owners refuse to accept the actual relief checks that are soon coming their way, courtesy of our actual, legally elected president, Joseph R. Biden and the American Rescue Plan Act ? Just wondering……
LETTER from CHIP NORTHRUP Impeachment Burnished At Least One Politician To the Editor: We saw something this week in the Impeachment trial that is a rarity – a politician who followed the law, not his party line. The idea of being faithful to the law is the essence of the inscription at Thermopylae, where 300 Spartans held the line against the Persian army. Herotodus mentioned the plaque commemorating the battle: “Go tell the Spartans that we 300, ever faithful to…
LETTER from R. SCOTT DUNCAN Hospitals Posting Prices? When You’re Sick, It Doesn’t Matter To the Editor: As I was driving along listening to NPR talking about hospitals now being required to post prices for services. I thought: That is all the hospital needs, more hoops to jump through for the government. I looked on the Internet to find out more details. “The Trump Administration…announced it would begin forcing hospitals to publicly disclose the discounted prices they negotiate with insurance…

EDITORIAL Let’s All Get Behind President Biden’s Call For Calm, Unity It’s a day that will live in infamy, Jan. 6, 2021, when a mob attacked the U.S. Capitol, vandalized and ransacked the venerable building, and was driven out by National Guard units and Capitol Police with some loss of life. Prior to Jan. 6, 2021, few Americans could visualize that ever happening. The natural response here in Otsego County, as throughout our United States, is horror, sadness and fear…
LETTER from CHIP NORTHRUP Vote For Candidate With Integrity, Dignity, Veracity To the Editor: The first Presidential candidate that I supported was Barry Goldwater in 1964. That was not a popular position in Texas, where LBJ was revered. I got into a few arguments. I did so because of Goldwater’s integrity, his personal ethics, his honor. The second political candidate I supported was JFK – for the same reasons – compared to Nixon, JFK was a paragon of integrity. I…
