THE WASHINGTON TIMES

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: No unbiased news available

I have searched for an honest, nonbiased media source and found none. CNN, MSNBC, ABCnews, CBS News, NBC News, Fox News, Breitbart, etc. all have biases. Studies have shown that during the 2016 election there was an overwhelming liberal bias, and Wikileaks exposed numerous liberal reporters for unethical contact with the Clinton campaign.

EDITORIAL: The Supreme Court tries again

The more the U.S. Supreme Court equivocates on deciding what President Trump's attempt to regulate the admission of refugees to the United States actually means, the more the court becomes the U.S. Court of Supreme Confusion. Lawyers are supposed to use precise language to reflect precise thinking, but often they don't.

EDITORIAL: The nuclear-free fantasy game

Faith is the assurance of things hoped for. The Bible tells us so. One of the things on anybody's wish list is a nuclear-free world. But without assurance that the hope will be redeemed such wishes are the stuff of idle delusion. That goes double for the expectation that the Trump administration's recertification of the deal proscribing Iran's nuclear program, and the United Nations' nuclear weapons ban, will give wing to the dove of peace.

EDITORIAL: ‘Banned in China’

The lot of a censor in China is not always a happy one. Not for lack of trying, Beijing's suppression of published opposition to its one-party Marxist rule is in trouble.

EDITORIAL: Republicans flee the health care fight

If the Republicans in the U.S. Senate were a baseball team, they would be the 1962 New York Mets. The Mets won only 40 games that summer, losing 120, the most inept performance since 1899 when a team called the Cleveland Spiders also won only 40 games. As the Mets stumbled to the end of the disastrous season, their manager, Casey Stengel, cried out in desperate frustration: "Can't anybody here play this game?"

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Trump won. Get over it.

Nary a moment goes by without a breathless tale of "collusion" by President Trump and the Russians. Did the Russians "spike" our water supply or alter vote totals to cause the election of Donald Trump? Grassy knolls notwithstanding, how was the nefarious deed achieved?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Return government to the people

We the American voters must work together if we are to see some of our more serious problems resolved. Those we have sent to Washington will not work together in our interest, so we must work together in our own interest. With an ever-growing debt of $20 trillion, we know spending is out of control. Yet our representatives just want to raise the debt limit. Before another budget is passed, we need a balanced budget law.

EDITORIAL: Oregon’s abortion business gets weirder

Oregon's state motto is "Alis volat propriis," Latin for "She flies with her own wings." It's nice sentiment, full of boast and swagger, but the bird aspires to be a cuckoo, with two left wings making it difficult to fly straight.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Who’s mentally ill?

You hear more and more people claiming that President Trump is mentally ill and unfit for his office. But if we consider the sources, very often the case can be made that the accusers themselves are the mentally ill ones.

EDITORIAL: To the Finland Station

While the United States debates whether it has "a Russian problem," and who's responsible for it, 6 million wary Finns know they have such a problem. It's inherited, and they're fearful again of a wrestling match with an old foe.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Make states pay for illegal voting

To their everlasting shame, California and other liberal states have refused to release data on voters to President Trump's voter fraud commission. This is understandable considering that the number of illegal aliens voting in our elections was recently estimated at 5.7 million. Illegal-alien voter fraud is undoubtedly the only way that Democrats can win with the country so evenly divided. That's why they pander to illegals with welfare entitlements, sanctuary cities and open borders.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: ‘Green’ power land, cash greedy

"Why the Greens hate nuclear power" (Web, July 9) paints a grim picture of a United States without full-time electric power from coal, natural gas and nuclear generation. Unfortunately, the situation at hand is even worse than that.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: McCain should prove motives

Sen. John McCain's explanation of his role in obtaining and providing to the FBI copies of the so-called "Trump Dossier" smells very fishy — and without a full explanation, it will fail the smell test.

EDITORIAL: The cloud over next year

If anybody can blow a sure thing, the Republicans can, but 2018 is not shaping up yet as an opportunity for the Democrats to regain control of the U.S. Senate. Democratic candidates are raising money by the barrel, but more in partisan hope than realistic expectation.

EDITORIAL: Restoration of the judiciary continues

Restoring the federal judiciary to its constitutional moorings is what many Americans call Job 1, and it was on this issue they put aside their considerable reservations about Donald Trump, swallowed hard, considered the alternative, hoped for the best, and cast their votes for him. On this score, he has redeemed their faith.

EDITORIAL: Where there’s smoke there’s revenue

The potheads and the revenooers of Nevada are in the throes of a marijuana emergency. It's not that the potheads are smoking too much of it. It's that the revenooers can't get enough of it to the potheads. There's plenty of pot but there aren't enough drivers to transport the weed to the legal market.

EDITORIAL: Zealotry is no substitute for science

On its way out the door last January, the Obama administration took care to satisfy the demands of helpful special interests, issuing many new and often loosely written environmental rules. One of these, the "Waters of the United States" rule, which attempted to declare everything short of milady's bathtub a navigable river or stream, and subject to regulation by overly zealous bureaucrats, has been ruled out of order. But others just as absurd have not.

Letter to the Editor: No more negativity

My husband and I have been long-time subscribers to The Washington Post, but we have finally had enough of its negativity and liberal bias. We recently decided to try The Washington Times, since the website promises to simply report the news without slant.

Letter to the Editor: More youths, cheaper coverage

A recent Gallup survey found that the number of uninsured Americans increased by 2 million this year ("U.S. uninsured up by 2M this year as gains erode: Survey," Web, July 10). Coverage losses were most prominent among young adults.

Letter to the Editor: Humanists not “Christophobic”

In "The separation of church and insanity" (Commentary, July 9), writer Larry W. Poland audaciously maligns millions of patriotic Americans as "Christophobic bigots" because we value the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment guarantee of religious liberty. This bedrock American value means nothing if it doesn't simultaneously protect people's freedom to practice their faith as long as that faith doesn't intrude on the rights of others, and protect people's freedom from religious imposition.
