It is probably too short for the 4 paragraph limit for copying.

I've run out of gift links, but this gets me behind a lot of paywalls.
Hope that helps.

You are much quicker than I am! I had to switch from my phone to my laptop; my thumbs aren't up to speed.

love this part of one LTTE:

But despite The Post’s best efforts to turn the election into a dispute over policy issues, the fact is that the election is not about that. Much as we might wish otherwise, it’s not about where the candidates stand on tariffs or NATO or climate. Here is what matters: Ms. Harris is a sane, principled, decent and honest person. Mr. Trump is a felon who is sleazy in his business dealings and without any discernible moral rudder.

seems to be a sign that they realize that we're aware of them normalizing the abnormal.

(Oops. This is actually a reply to #6. Hunt 'n' pecking isn't foolproof, either...)

Report accurately as possible, make fast corrections and THAT IS ALL!
