CIVIL WAR: Rhetoric is dangerous

Memorial Day; a time to honor and remember our fallen veterans. They were our fathers, sons, husbands, brothers and in many cases, mothers, daughters sisters and wives. Families were broken, hundreds of thousands were wounded and live a life of pain and disability. Not something you would wish on a loved one.

MY TURN: Standing against hate in our community

The recent incident at McEuen Park, where students from the Coeur d’Alene Tribe were racially harassed, is a stark reminder of the work we must continue to do to foster a community of respect and understanding. Hate, in any form, cannot be tolerated. It is not just an attack on individuals but an assault on the very fabric of our community.

ELECTION: Support this superior slate

As a lifelong resident and someone who has been deeply ingrained in our community for over three decades, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside exceptional individuals who have dedicated themselves to bettering our community.

Their commitment and passion for our community’s welfare are unparalleled, making them the ideal candidates for Precinct Committeeman.

MEMORIAL DAY: Of honor and unity

As the warmth of summer beckons, Americans gather to honor a solemn tradition: Memorial Day. Beyond its status as a long weekend, or the unofficial start of summer, Memorial Day carries profound significance rooted in remembrance, gratitude and national unity.

"We are very pleased with the progress our program has made in our first two years," Eck said. "We are not content. Our sights are set on bringing a championship to Moscow. My family and I love the University of Idaho and this community. We are grateful to President Scott Green and Terry Gawlik for this contract extension to remain here."

ECONOMICS: Paint an accurate picture

In the May 2 article “Little touts support for education…” our governor continues to display his willful ignorance of the true economic condition of our state.

OPINION: Convictions about principled presidential leadership

The conviction of a candidate for president of the United States for felony crimes is not a moment for celebration, but a time for reflection and recommitment to principles that define our democracy. We must carefully consider the character of those we elect, and advocate for leaders who prioritize public service above all else.

GRADUATION: Where was the coverage?

I find it hard to understand why there was no Press coverage of the local high school graduations in our area. This is a big deal!

YOUTH SPORTS: Thanks to all the coaches

I want to give a big shout out to all the athletic coaches that volunteer so much of their time for the children in our community. These dedicated people generously give their time, energy and expertise to mentor and guide our youth athletes. Not only are they teaching them sports, but they are teaching them lifelong values of teamwork, discipline and resilience during challenging moments.

DEJA VU: Another Strong Man rising to power

It seems like we’ve been here before… During the 1930s, there was a Strong Man who came to Power in Germany. He promised to “Make Germany Great Again.” (He would restore Prosperity, rebuild the Military, and gather up all those People who weakened the Blood Lines of Germany and concentrate them in “Camps” where they could be controlled.) Today, here in our own Country, there is a Populist Leader who is promising to “Make America Great Again.” (He would restore Prosperity, rebuild the Military, and gather up all the “Illegal Immigrants” and put them in “Detention Centers” along our Southern Border.)

GOOD OL’ DAYs: Plenty of good things about them

Susan Crowe’s Good ol’ Days column, June 8, is another in a long string of grievances by those who insist on keeping the memory of American wrongs and injustices, particularly, in Ms. Crowe’s case, committed by “the white middle class,” and by “white males, towns, and families” at the forefront of our history (see Communist manifestos and treatises on how to seize control of a nation). I see a deep-seated distain by her for America since its inception, i.e., founded by white Europeans (inherently wrong), and everything has gone downhill since then.

FAST FIVE Stephenie Kimener: Life is better in the country

Meet Stephenie Kimener of Long Mountain Meadows. She is a doting wife to Brian and mother to five wonderful children: Christopher, Timothy, Josephine, Benjamin and Gabriel. She is a self-proclaimed mediocre housewife who runs two businesses and homeschools her children. She prefers to be outside with her family and animals while neglecting her household duties, which she admits her husband is way better at doing anyways. She and her husband feel as though they have found their own little slice of heaven at the base of Long Mountain where the valley opens up to several waterways and meadows. She loves her highland cows, horses, dogs and various other farm animals. She gives God all the glory for the many blessings in her life.

CHURCH: God’s love is for all

In response to the letter from James Seeley in the June 5 edition of The Press, he is certainly entitled to his opinion, as we all are.
