SPEAKUP! !?!

WHY, WITH

all the problems we have, do we need to build the tallest building in the state? Who is going to occupy it? Why do we need it? Let’s fix our problems first and then recruit a business to build the skyscraper and fill it with jobs. HH

TRUMP SAYS

the White House has been tapping his phones. Well, Trump now runs the White House — and the Justice Department, CIA, FBI and NSA. All he needs to do is order them to produce the evidence of this wiretapping (and) declassify the information if needed. No congressional investigation required. CK

IF WE

are holding crime victims liable for crimes committed with their property, perhaps we should start holding the judges and justices who let criminals out just as liable. They are a large part of the problem and need to be held responsible for their actions. JB

IT’S INTERESTING

that liberals tout auto-registering to vote when you get your driver’s license as a good thing, yet claim these same people are disenfranchised if they are required to show that same license when they show up to vote. JD

SO, THE

new United States confederate, I mean attorney general. Perjury or not? If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it’s a duck. EJG

SO THE

idiot pols in SF think they can poke Trump in the eye and prevent the U.S. from building a wall along the N.M. border. Eminent domain anyone? Time for the energy labs to be moved from N.M. to Oak Ridge, Tenn. How do you like him now, libs? TM

SO, THE

Legislature won’t allow and tax recreational marijuana. But they will raise taxes on other things. Remember that come election time. CC

THE MEXICAN

foreign minister says, “If the United States government insists on deporting or wants to send to Mexico people who aren’t Mexican citizens, there is no reason why we should receive them.” Is anyone else disgusted by the utter hypocrisy of that statement coming from an official of the Mexican government? Unbelievable! BT

IN THE

months leading up to and for a short period after the election, when I posted something critical about Trump, my FB friends, some of whom I actually knew in real life, who voted for him would jump to his defense. Lately though, they have been strangely silent. GLS

CAN THOSE

legislators pushing marijuana specify several studies proving 100 percent there is no effect of a contact high on kids, i.e. there will be no negative effect on being motivated and succeeding in doing their homework lest that will further degrade our abysmal graduation rates? BM

THE ONLY

way to drain the swamp is to have term limits for Congress. Five two-year terms for the House (10 years) and three six-year terms (18 years) for the Senate. JD

THE OFFICE

of the president walks into a bar. It was a very, very low bar. BF

WHERE DO

they stand? What do we hear? Republicans: Jobs, Security, Health Care. Democrats: Russians, Russians, Russians. JH

WHY DON’T

we just raise the tax from 7.313 percent to 10 cents? No one would miss it, and it would bring up state revenues. REV
