LETTER: Forget the Trump impeachment trial

Forget impeachment. It is a political trial that solves nothing. Prosecute Donald Trump for insurrection under criminal law. Why?

Do we want a political trial or a trial of facts, circumstances and established definitions of law? Do we want a political trial designed to gain power or a trial by impartial jurors? Do we want a political trial that further divides our nation or a trial that resolves a matter?

Justice and the rule of law are not served by a political trial.

LETTER: Those dastardly mosquitoes

In the past month, I have shed my human identity and become a walking itch.

LETTER: The carbon-spewing Biden family

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.
