Scarlet Stalks

Rhubarb is a perennial; take good care of it, and you’ll have a bed for years. This patch is three years old, but the plants are older than that. We moved them from elsewhere, and before that they came as frozen roots from a nursery in New England. Food, even that which we cultivate in our backyard, ultimately comes from somewhere, or somewhere else, and there are backstories — families, cargo ships, conveyor belts and volcanic soils — in every bite. It’s been raining a lot this spring, and rhubarb enjoys the current conditions. Coolness keeps it robust, and “too ... by Marilee Foster

Wrecking Landmarks

Donald Trump is offering a massive public lands giveaway to the fossil fuel industry. He’s ordered the United States to “drill, baby, drill” on public lands, and he’s fast-tracked new oil and gas projects, bypassing environmental and public review. His allies in Congress are even pushing to open Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling.

So if we don’t want to see drilling rigs the next time we head ... 19 May 2025 by Staff Writer

The truth is that the white South Africans are not being persecuted. They comprise approximately 7 percent of the South African population and own approximately 70 percent of the land. The truth is that Russia is the aggressor against Ukraine and is trying to eliminate it. Vladimir Putin intends to include Ukraine as part of Russia. The truth is that the emoluments provision in the U.S. Constitution prohibits government officials from accepting gifts or other benefits from foreign powers without the consent of Congress.

Protect the Poor

I commend Nick LaLota and the other Republican members of the House of Representatives who held out against the “one big, beautiful bill” — but I would have a great deal more respect for them if they were holding out to protect those who need Medicaid and those who need Food Stamps. There are so many people out here who are in desperate need of help — just talk to the staff at any of the food pantries. Making the poor shoulder tax cuts for the most wealthy is the opposite of the kind of community and country that I ... by Staff Writer
