LETTER: President Joe Biden’s incomprehensible energy policy

Someone needs to explain to me why the president of the United States shuts down our drilling, fracking and exploration of fossil fuels and then goes begging authoritarian regimes to ramp up their production.

Has insanity overtaken the Democrats and their far-left ideologues? Does it make sense to stop accessing hundreds of years of oil and gas reserves in this country for some green-pie-in-the-sky scheme about windmills and solar that will not and cannot sustain us (in cold or hot weather) for decades to come, if ever?

Why should we, the American people, sacrifice our way of life for some progressive scheme that is destroying our economy while China and India fire up their coal mines? This is insane policy from a insanely woke government.

LETTER: Columbia kids need to learn to pay their own way

Frankly, if I had kids at Columbia who participated in these “protests,” I’d yank them out of school, toss their stuff onto the lawn and tell them to get a job, go live in the real world and pay your own way.

LETTER: Here’s the real threat to democracy

In the 2020 election, Mr. Biden ran on promises he has failed to keep. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
