Editor,
When letter writer John Marty (1/6/26) accused Democrats as the party of hypocrisy, perhaps he should look inward.

Thanks for your letter, Mr. Brenner, regurgitating fake news and lies from Democrat talking points. I think we’ve heard that song before. Considering you’ve fallen on the wrong side of just about every hoax perpetrated by Democrats I’m not sure we can take your words to heart. Sadly, you (and others) don’t seem to understand repeating fake news and lies undermines your credibility, on any subject. You should appreciate the fact that our (yes, our) great President Trump is the greatest president in our lifetimes, twice, and a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Perhaps a multiple winner in the near future. We’re still not tired of winning.
