Court wrong on immunity ruling

To the Editor:

The convicted (but yet to be sentenced) felon who sent an armed mob bent on mayhem to attack the U.S. Capitol in a desperate attempt to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 Presidential election returned to the scene of the crime on Thursday, June 13, and was welcomed with open arms by members of the “values” party, the once proud defender of “law and order,” the Grand Old Party (you remember), the party whose members fled in panic three years ago last January less they be killed (or in the case of the vice president, hung) on a scaffold erected just outside the United States Capitol (Whew!).

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
