Though she may not be so left-wing as the Ripon Republicans of 1854, Harris has views that are reasonably in sync with the first candidate they elected to the presidency.
During one of the most trying times for any governor in North Carolina, this weekend Roy Cooper had to take time away from the work he needed to do for storm victims and talk to the press about the lies and “false information” linked to several articles that quoted Trump’s statements about recovery efforts.
Trump may be rich with money but he lacks wealth in things that matter more. His false claims and dark words do not light the path to more goodness, peace and justice in America.
Property owners in the city of Madison who reside in other cities are not allowed to vote on the referendums. That’s taxation without representation.
Its managers Ron San Felippo and Mike White can’t explain it. And Summerfest won’t say.
