Letters to the Editor

Letter: Vote to impeach

I’m one who let the Donald Trump circus in, for no other reason than Trump being better for Alaska. Then came the national disgrace. The invasion of the very symbol of our nation, the US Congress building itself.

I can no longer step mentally aside. The President, as commander of our armed forces, had an obligation to defend America and this symbol of the United States of America. Not since the British Army burned the town in 1812 have we faced such shame.

If I had the vote, I would vote to impeach. As to how Sen. Lisa Murkowski chooses to vote, she will have my total support. Sen. Murkowski is a Republican of the Lincoln era; God bless her.
