The American Way

Donald Trump has been given an extraordinary mandate by the American people. They wanted change, and he promised it. The question I have is: What price are Americans willing to pay to get those changes accomplished Trump style? Trump will close the border and deport illegal immigrants. But he will do it in the Trump way, which will be extreme and brutal. Are Americans going to be OK with that? He will end the war in Ukraine, in the Trump way. He will likely make a deal with Vladimir Putin to give away a portion of Ukraine, and to restrict ... by Staff Writer

I want to thank everyone who voted for me on Election Day, November 5, and elected me to my first full term as Southampton Town justice.

We Just Don't Know

The Shinnecock continue to build their gas station on Westwoods, as government officials responsible for oversight sit on their hands and do nothing. Southampton Town’s Department of Public Safety issued a stop-work order in August, but the town has not enforced it. They also have refused to enforce zoning laws. Despite having the authority, they choose not to use it. Concerned neighbors have reached out to New York State, Suffolk County and the Environmental Protection Agency. We have contacted Governor Kathy Hochul, Marie Therese Dominguez (commissioner of the State Department of Transportation), Suffolk County Executive Ed Romaine, Lisa Garcia (head ... by Staff Writer

Outdoor Gym

Hampton Bays is a virtual gymnasium. It offers something for everyone. The best workout is to walk over the Ponquogue Bridge to the ocean. It is low impact, but the walk might strengthen your heart and legs while you are looking at beautiful scenery and breathing clean, fresh air. To improve on the “bridge exercise,” you could do jumping jacks, push-ups or squats along the way. I usually add a plank at the water’s edge, and I will crawl on the sand for a few minutes. Some people walk to the inlet. For an easy “downtown workout,” park by the ... by Staff Writer

Experts?

Regarding the article “Cannabis Sales on the South Fork Are Coming; Express Sessions Event Taps Expert Assessments” [27east.com, October 30]: I question whether most of the panelists at the Express Sessions are “experts.” Supervisor Maria Moore and Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele Jr. are politicians; the former “opted out” when she was mayor of Westhampton Beach, and the latter opposed this state law and the way it was written and handled. Greg Konner is a real estate developer. I also question the adjective “lauded” to describe “the state’s first-of-its-kind attempt at steering the benefits of legalized pot sales to the people ... by Staff Writer

The Pity Party

For decades, three friends and I have met at Le Soir in Blue Point for seasonal dinners. Since I had the longest ride, I stayed overnight at my librarian friend’s house. That way I could enjoy a straight-up dirty martini with three olives. Back then, I was divorced, and my librarian confidante was between husbands, so our conversations focused on money and men. Now money and medical are prime concerns. However, one of the quartet insisted that any talk about medical matters be limited to the Ten-Minute Rule. An “organ recital” wouldn’t leave enough time to laugh and to discuss ... by Denise Gray Meehan

Intense Views

The political campaign signs along Suffolk County roads declared: “Suffolk is Trump Country.” And, indeed, in last week’s election, Suffolk County was Trump country — as was much of the United States. His vote here for president heading the Republican ticket was substantial: 402,924, compared to 323,473 for Democrat Kamala Harris, or 55 to 44 percent. That’s an increase from 2020, when Trump bested Democrat Joe Biden in the county by 232 votes, and 2016, when he won by 46,619 votes in Suffolk County over Democrat Hillary Clinton. I’ve written about outcomes of elections on Long Island for decades, and ... by Karl Grossman
