To The Daily Sun,Can anyone explain how billions of unvaxxed people with no boosters are still alive? Why's it a "good idea" taxpayers keep funding extremely liberal stations NPR and PBS? The astronauts stranded for nine months rescued by Elon Musk is a huge accomplishment. Why does a liberal judge want recently deported illegal Venezuelan gang members brought back? First time since March 2021 gas prices are actually down — no mention in the mainstream media.

The early reports about the staffers working with the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was troubling. We had a bunch of “kids” running things. Information winding up in the wrong hands can be a powerful tool. Have they been working in secret as reported? Has there been oversight of them? Or do we trust them without any independent verifications or controls? If the latter is true, is it very possible that we wrongfully exposed America to trouble down the road.

To The Daily Sun,April 17 is Holy Thursday in the Christian world. I reflect on the many beliefs of this day which I was taught and have practiced for many years. The most famous story of all is that of Judas, a disciple of Jesus, who we were taught betrayed him and turned him over to the Roman tribunal for 30 pieces of silver.

To The Daily Sun,I have lived at Ames Brook Apartments in Ashland (formerly Ledgewood Estates) since the fall of 2020. I love my apartment. It is beautiful inside, and I enjoy the peace and quiet of the location. It is a nice place to live. Lakes Region Community Developers (LRCD) goes above and beyond to help their tenants. They helped me with a rental assistance grant when my car died.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — I’ve been back on Canada’s west coast for roughly five minutes, and already I’m trapped in the same boomer-induced fever dream that haunts American airports and Whole Foods checkout lines. It’s just endless, unsolicited Donald Trump rants.

To The Daily Sun,Responsibility. Accountability. Integrity. Character. I’m a retired Navy captain who spent 26 years serving as a cryptologist and information warfare officer. So what, right? During those years I held a security clearance and was routinely required to sign a “classified information nondisclosure agreement.” If so inclined, readers can read this voluntary agreement on the GSA website: gsa.gov/reference/forms/classified-information-nondisclosure-agreement-1.

To The Daily Sun,When Rep. Dan McGuire (R-Epsom) sponsored a bill to cut public school arts requirements, amazingly 30,000 New Hampshirites went to the state’s online portal to successfully tell the House to kill the bill. Now the 90,000 University of New Hampshire, Keene State and Plymouth State in-state alumni need to speak out. The GOP Controlled Statehouse wants $80 million in university system cuts over the next two years.

As tens of millions of Americans hustle to pay their taxes, Donald Trump has put the entire global economy into chaos. 401(k)s are tanking, savings are shrinking, treasury bonds are losing value, supply chains are convulsing. Even America’s oligarchs are petrified. They contributed millions to Trump’s inauguration. Many invested heavily in his campaign. They lavished praise on the new president and have supported his every move — in order to benefit from his promised big tax cut.

To The Daily Sun,A recent Facebook post by Sarah Stoppe, a landlord in Ashland, accused Lakes Region Community Developers (LRCD) of exploiting vulnerable tenants at Ames Brook Apartments (formerly known as Ledgewood Estates). I’d like to set the record straight. Ames Brook Apartments was built in 1975 by The Hodges Companies using a federal program that provided financing and rental subsidy, both of which had a 40-year term. As the term neared its expiration, Hodges prepared to sell the property.
