Through the “Investing in America” agenda, the Biden-Harris administration is cutting costs for hardworking American families in every corner of the country.

Ah! The political noise and chatter that precede the November elections are already growing to a bothersome level and will only get worse as time goes on.

Separate ideas from identity

Running along Creamery Road in New Hope, I couldn’t help but notice a kaleidoscope of different campaign signs that lined my route: Trump, Biden, Fitzpatrick, Ehasz — all names peculiarly positioned above the election year 2024.

People read the Herald for stories they can’t get anywhere else, not for news they can get virtually everywhere else. That’s why you won’t find coverage of the assassination attempt on our news pages this week.

The Republican platform has been approved and paints a picture of what the next four years look like if Donald Trump wins.

Beauty as only skin deep? The ugliness comes out in “White,” which is being produced by the Langhorne Players in Northampton Township. Opening night is Friday, and this comedy of colors, with playwright James Ijames’ juicy jabs at hypocrisy and histrionics, runs to Aug. 4.

A guest opinion writer lost me when he claimed, in last week’s Herald, that inflation was 9% when President Biden was inaugurated (“Biden controls neither inflation nor oil prices” July 4).

In the pursuit of truth, words are important. Good law is practical and objective. Bad law pits good people against one another. When the great American melting pot is stirred, consensus is formed.

In November we will go to the polls to vote — not just for President, but also for U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Here in Bucks County, voters will also be choosing 10 representatives to the Pennsylvania Legislature.

Senator Bob Casey knows President Joe Biden needs all the support he can get as he deals with the political storm that has followed his June 27 debate with former President Donald Trump.

The presidential debate on Thursday night frightens me. I will vote for the Democratic nominee.

Donald Trump, leader of the MAGA Party (the Republican Party was hijacked long ago), was given another pass at the debate.

The average American has a distorted view when it comes to the economy. Despite noticeable improvements and numerous accomplishments by the president and his administration, polls continue to show that the majority of Americans disapprove of how President Biden is handling the economy.

You may recall President Biden saying on television, soon after what he called the “outrageous” Dobbs decision, which held there is no right to an abortion contained in the U.S. Constitution, that we as a nation need to “codify Roe v. Wade as soon as possible.”

Some Democratic Senators want women to be eligible for the military draft. This isn’t a new policy position for the Democrats in the U.S. Congress and U.S. Senate.
