The Mercury’s Sound Off for Wednesday, Oct. 30

The Mercury’s Sound Off for Wednesday, Oct. 30

The facts are important. Project 2025 is the product of a 501c3 organization which makes it a non-profit. As a 501c3, it cannot be endorsed by any candidate or it would lose the tax-exempt status. By definition, Project 2025 is non-partisan and as such is available to all candidates including Kamala Harris.

For every rationalization you hear in favor of abortion, try inserting “slavery.” For example, “Let’s keep slavery safe, legal and rare.” “I’m not pro-slavery, but I do want to preserve a slave owner’s right to choose how he runs his plantation.” “I am personally opposed to slavery, but I don’t want to impose my values on somebody else.” “Slavery is a privacy matter protected by our Constitution.” “The slave is really not a person.” https://www.somethinggoodradio.org/blog/abortion-and-slavery/

I am so sick of all the lies and commercials, I can’t wait till November 5th! Anyone who tries to make ends meet can’t possibly want another 4 years of what we just went through! If Dems win we won’t be a country anymore. Did you see the thousands of illegals rushing to get to our open border before the election? Of course, you didn’t, MSM won’t let you see that!

The same generals who attempted to cover up the friendly fire death of NFL Safety turned Army Ranger(2nd Battalion/75th Regiment) Pat Tillman and for whom the strategy in Afghanistan was to “muddle along” have endorsed Harris despite her declaration that the horrific exit from Kabul was a success. Trump has received endorsements from 15 Medal of Honor recipients.


No one in this column fact-checks Trump’s lies. People don’t research what either Candidate says. Use the internet to Fact Check. Trump has no plan to help Americans, only invoking “One Day of Violence” and more. All of you right-wing lunatics need to wake up. See what your Fuhrer has planned. Kamala’s platform is clear; Trump’s is violence. Wake up people, our Freedoms will be gone under Trump. He’s unstable and violent!

In the grand tradition of Democrat presidential candidates, Kamala Harris just used the Adolf Hitler label to describe President Trump. In 2008, Democrats called John McCain Hitler and in 2012, they called Mitt Romney Hitler. Then Barack Obama goes to a rally and says, “I don’t know how politics got so toxic.” Hypocrisy has no limit when it comes to Democrats.

How is it that Kamala Harris — the person responsible for the insanity that is our southern border continues to absolve herself of any responsibility? This vast invasion of illegal aliens will prove to be one of the most significant events in the history of our country because it is going to change America forever — and not for the better! All in plain sight of the corrupt news media – an extension of the Democratic Party.

There are a lot of people trying to get Trump to stop his incessant lying, but he won’t stop. Many of them are Republicans. Whatever pops into that head of his, he comes out with. Some of them are promises that he knows he can’t keep, but it sounds good to him (and his followers). Many of these lies are hurting people, like the hurricane victims. Fact-checkers are working overtime.


Let’s talk about transgender prisoners and medical care. The Constitution requires prison facilities to pay for the medical needs of prisoners. The SCOTUS in 1976 included transgender inmates’ medical needs in their decision. This practice is not in question. The Trump administration followed the law. This has nothing to do with Harris. You can’t make this stuff up!

I was shocked to see that 52 million foreign-born people are living in the USA. Fifty-two million is an incredible number! No wonder we are divided because we haven’t assimilated all those people. We need a pause for a generation or so to begin assimilating these folks.

Michael Stern


Rant about bias by the authors all you want, but I, like many Americans, remember these events. It’s a pretty factual account of all that transpired, with very little spin. For conservatives, you might applaud some of his actions. Look deeper at the whole picture. Not a lot benefitted most of America or most citizens. For those reminiscing about the “Golden Era” of Trump’s Presidency: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_Donald_Trump]


If you were a potential illegal immigrant, would you be more willing to pay the Mexican cartels thousands of dollars to make the difficult and dangerous trip to the USA if A) you were immediately released into the United States and given free housing and healthcare, or B) you knew you would have to wait in Mexico until your asylum hearing? That’s why Trump’s Remain-in-Mexico policy was so effective.

Hey Lefty Lucy, I think you’ve been reading too many of Lefty’s “Sound Offs”. For the record, there have been 10 instances of multiple hurricanes in one week. And what on earth do plastic straws have to do with hurricanes? Wildlife harm yes…Hurricanes no. (Can you say “warm ocean water”.) I won’t even go into how recharging and battery production for EVs pollute both the planet and the atmosphere. Research it.

With 40% of the population committed to voting Democrat and another 40% to voting Republican, it’s the independent 20% who will choose the next president. I hope and pray that these people will eliminate the noise, disregard the personalities, look at the track record of these 2 candidates and cast their vote for whomever they think has the best plan for America. It’s a no-brainer!

Right or wrong, good or bad, public school teachers aren’t held accountable for adequately educating our children. Sadly, public school teachers make the future.

Have you noticed how one party calls their opponents commies, pedophiles, and cheaters and offers nothing of substance? While the other wants lower medical prices and other things like voter rights. Take a guess!

How do individuals support someone who does not tell the truth?

If Lying Kamala actually had worked at McDonald’s, the IRS should have the W2s. Release the tax returns!

Paper jam is the least delicious of all the preserves.

Politicians like Kamala Harris have to take responsibility for the popularity of Donald Trump!
