Normalized Chaos

Donald Trump did not emerge in a vacuum. He is the product of a long line of teachers, each shaping his instincts, sharpening his worst impulses, and reinforcing a worldview where power matters more than truth, and notoriety is worth more than integrity. His father taught him the basics: that people are assets or liabilities, and that whole communities — particularly Black families — were to be avoided because they were “bad for business.” That worldview didn’t make Trump a racist in the classic sense; it made him a calculator, someone who learned early that prejudice could be profitable. He ... by Staff Writer

Worthy of Debate

The long knives came out in response to my recent letters condemning the violence toward ICE agents doing the hazardous work of finding illegals to screen for deportation. My sense is that the recent ballot success in New Jersey, Virgina and New York City has reawakened a Democrat voice that had been gagging on the Trump agenda and its broad implementation. Steve Crispinelli [“Useless Durak,” Letters, November 6] is perfectly free to defend the woke agenda, defend what he believes is free speech and how successful this first year of Donald Trump’s second term have been, but the name-calling adds ... by Staff Writer

I want to extend my deepest thanks to the voters of Southampton for placing your trust in me once again to serve as a Town Trustee. It is an honor I do not take lightly.

Sag Harbor Planners Hear Request To Split Potter Application

Adam Potter’s plan for a mixed-use development on property at 7 and 11 Bridge Street remains stuck in the review process, as the Sag Harbor Village Planning Board on November 25 weighed a request from his attorney, Tiffany Scarlato, to break the environmental review of the application into two parts. In September, Scarlato asked that the Planning Board allow Potter to move forward separately with an application for a use variance before the Village Zoning Board of Appeals that would allow him to use the neighboring gas ball property at 5 Bridge Street as a stand-alone parking lot, which is ... by Stephen J.

About Priorities

In a recent article about SNAP (Supplemental Assistance Benefits Program) being caught up in the most recent government shutdown [“SNAP Funding Turmoil Hits East End Food Pantries Ahead of Winter Season,” 27east.com, October 30], and the consequences to East End food pantries, Congressman Nick LaLota was quoted to the effect that he would insist that Democrats pass the latest continuing resolution to fund the government to restore SNAP benefits. Some thoughts on Mr. LaLota blaming Democrats: Democrats were reluctant to back the continuing resolution since it didn’t extend Affordable Care Act insurance subsidies, but agreed after Senate Republican leader John ... 1 Dec 2025 by Staff Writer
