Yes, he talks like a Brooklyn tough guy, but U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders is a resident of Vermont, America's most rural and most white state. That he fled New York City nearly 60 years ago seems lost on current Mayor Zohran Mamdani and his fellow socialists. Then again, Mamdani hasn't been arou…

Long gone are the days where impulse buying meant grabbing an unplanned candy bar or magazine in the checkout line.

Mr. Joe Morrissey’s opinion piece in the RTD of March 31 cries out for negative criticism. He does explain the good reasons why good people should never support gerrymandering.
