The Latest
Check out the most recent Daily News editorials and opinion columns below.
When it comes to informing the public about what is happening, some law enforcement agencies do not put a priority on press releases — at least as much as some of us in the media and public would want.
Californians have suffered greatly in our crazy war against the China virus.
Recently
The last few years have seen the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs undergo its greatest transformation since the end of World War II.
In the suburbs of Philadelphia, Montgomery County’s Board of Health issued an order by unanimous vote last week to shut down all in-person learning at school for two weeks.
The 2020 elections have, once again, provided telling examples that political polling — especially that conducted by or for national media outlets — is suffering from a severe credibility crisis.
There they go waltzing down the street and singing ... tra-la-la-la ... silly-goose-silly-fool ... ha-ha-ha ... the joke’s on you. Can’t you hear it? That’s the song being sung by the Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page and Brennan cabal.
There was no doubt about who won the presidential race here in Madison County.
After the votes were certified last week, President Donald Trump was the big winner in the county with 11,940 votes over Joe Biden’s 3,478.
Despite an Election Day disaster — at least six House seats lost and potentially up to a dozen when all the votes are tabulated — Speaker Nancy Pelosi will likely fend off a challenge from a band of disgruntled Democrats and secure another term as leader.
In a disturbing trend, the Nebraska State Patrol issued just over 900 tickets to motorists driving over 100 mph in the first 10 months of the year — a 68% increase over the previous five-year average.
Our politicians and leaders still don’t get it.
Thanksgiving is a great holiday. Psychologists say it can help improve people’s outlook as they shift their focus and appreciate what they have.
Go away and hide, President Trump, because you botched the handling of COVID-19 except for one teensy thing, starting Operation Warp Speed to develop vaccines faster than history allows.
When President Donald Trump took office in January 2016, about 70 congressional Democrats skipped the inauguration, including more than a third of California’s 39 Democrats. In addition, thousands of women protested, wearing pink clothing and unusual hats in protest.
Evangelical Christians have unquestionably been a loyal and largely unmovable base of support for President Trump since he has been in office and in some cases before. Should the election results not be overturned by recounts or court decisions, where do they go and what should they do?
With the COVID-19 pandemic still underway, one would think that Americans could agree on the need for safe ways to reopen the economy and get people back to work.
It has been said, reiterated and shouted that President Donald Trump did a lousy job managing COVID-19, a major theme in the campaign to remove him from the Oval Office. Former President Barack Obama practically charged him with mass murder.
The California wildfires have been among the many disagreements this summer and fall between President Donald Trump and climate change advocates.
Pending the outcome in a few key states, Donald Trump may be leaving the White House, but he’s not exiting the room.
What would Norfolk look like if not for visionaries with an eye far into the future?
A few days after the election last week, when things were still a bit murky, I made an offhand remark to some friends about what kind of hat I should crochet for the march that would be taking place the day after Joe Biden’s anticipated inauguration.
