Commentary: Organizing to rebuild
Our community has never been stronger than it is today. We were sorely tested by the fires in October. We’ve been sorely tested ever since, as fire survivors clean up the ashes and rubble of our homes and attempt to keep our focus on the future.
Are you a citizen?
We rarely quote our president, Donald Trump, but here goes: “I’m proud to be a citizen, you’re proud to be a citizen. The only people that are not proud to be citizens are the ones who are fighting us all the way about the word ‘citizen.’”

Around Town: Elections
As local elections start to heat up (mail-in ballots go out the first week in October), there are more and more opportunities to hear the candidates speak on various issues.
Natives and immigrants
As our nation just completed its 115th Congressional election with almost 120 million people voting amid thunderbolt issues such as immigration, national security and voter suppression, we took special notice of the unique viewpoint shared by a very small cohort — the continent’s Native Americans.
Defending our freedom
We join with hundreds of other newspapers of all sizes on this day (Aug. 16, 2018) to denounce President Donald Trump’s dirty war against America’s free press and to declare that we are not the enemy of the people.
