Column | All talk, no action: A Republican metaphor

Community View | End the discrimination
We have recently seen many articles written about prejudice. Kingman social media is discriminatory and the community remains silent.

This week, Republican congressional candidate Rudy Peters of California was nearly stabbed by a 35-year-old Castro Valley resident, Farzad Fazeli.
Guest Column | Progress isn’t a dirty word
The root of the word progressive is PROGRESS. It’s not a dirty word.
