March 1 Letters Part 3: Our Readers' Opinions - The Lewiston Tribune

Their soulless desires

Services of the Donald Trump-Jeffrey Epstein dynasty have been temporarily suspended. The soulless desires of the ruling class must be accommodated.

A pending solution to the current void has been revealed. Returning Cuba to its pre-Fidel Castro status is that solution.

Holding accountable

Congressman Michael Baumgartner, I commend your support of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Many of your constituents, myself included, care deeply about ensuring that those who harmed children are brought to justice. However, I am concerned that, following the Department of Justice’s blatant failure to comply with the law, you have not publicly taken steps to hold them accountable.

Several requirements in the legislation you supported remain unmet: Where are the written justifications for each redaction? Why are the perpetrators’ names still redacted in numerous documents? Why have all the files not been released despite the deadline having passed months ago? These were explicit provisions established by Congress.

Given this lack of compliance, why have you not called for accountability from the officials responsible? What actions have you taken to enforce the law you voted in favor of?

I would prefer to ask these questions directly, but it seems you no longer answer your phone. Therefore, I am submitting this letter publicly in hopes of getting your attention. I will continue to reach out until Pam Bondi has been impeached and the files have been released.

Your constituents read this newspaper and are watching how you respond. When the full truth becomes known, you will be remembered either as someone who pursued accountability or as an accomplice.

Jim Crow 2.0?

Like a troupe of juvenile delinquents speaking in harmony, Democrat leaders are chanting the “Jim Crow 2.0” song. Their allegation is that African and Native Americans, along with Spanish, and most other minorities, are too ignorant and illiterate to acquire an ID capable of allowing them to vote if the SAVE Act passes.

How often will these minorities hear the Democrats claim they will have no one to cook their meals, dump their trash, clean their houses, scrub their toilets, mop their floors, harvest their crops or any countless other menial tasks, unless their controllers, the Democrats, somehow enable them?

Ninety percent of the country believe everyone should have identification proving their citizenship to vote, including those the Democrats claim are too stupid to get one. The only reason Democrats are against voter identification is they want to keep all their minority minions under their control.

That is the real “Jim Crow 2.0” that is happening in our country.
