LETTER: Shocked and disappointed in Joe Biden

President Joe Biden’s speech while at the G-7 summit meeting shocked and disappointed me.

I’m a retired Naval aviator coming from a long line of military family dating back to the 1700s. Some of the most demanding jobs I had in the military involved escorting the flag-draped caskets of friends and family into Arlington National Cemetery. We all stood proud and strong as we remembered the love and devotion to duty each casket represented.

President Biden’s petty political comments aimed at the Supreme Court over the Roe v. Wade decision were cheap and insulting to the heroes in Arlington.

He can discuss his opinion while standing on U.S. soil. But when speaking as the most powerful representative of the United States and standing on foreign soil, he should stand tall and show his pride in America.

LETTER: The carbon-spewing Biden family

Climate change is an existential threat to mankind, animals and plants. Why doesn’t the Biden family lead the way?

LETTER: The Trump show trial

Remember, Martin Luther King, Mahatma Ghandi and Sir Thomas More — all innocent men — were also declared to be guilty.

LETTER: No conspiracy involving Hunter’s laptop

The R-J should acknowledge that Mr. Trump’s lies, frauds, defamations, criminal indictments and convictions are exponentially worse than Hunter’s laptop being evidence or any of the other alleged Biden missteps.

LETTER: Trump tries to win Nevada

Mr. Trump advocating for tax-free tip income is definitely one approach to winning Nevada. But my tip to Mr. Trump is to pick Marco Rubio and show the diversity of the GOP.

LETTER: Red Rock development ‘compromise’ is depressing

Red Rock Canyon is a fragile natural wonder. To claim that 3,500 homes and the traffic that goes with them, and changing the nature of the watershed, will not negatively impact the area is absurd.

LETTER: Russian warships off the Florida coast

It’s strange that the mainstream media are treating Russian combat ships miles off the Florida coast as nothing to see here.
