Regarding the editorial "25 years after 9/11, we're still 'One nation, indivisible'" (Sept. 11): Its contention that that we are still one nation, united, reads more as wishful thinking than a description of the country we live in today.
As a Cardinals fan of many years it was most gratifying to watch Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina be inducted together into the Cardinals Hall of Fame. ("Tears, eye black, a 100-year-old ring: Molina, Pujols inductions unite Cardinals generations," Sept. 13.) Their combined contributions to o…

Letter: "I never felt so supported by people whom I don’t even know."
President Donald Trump's unprecedented midterm GOP "convention" this week included an extraordinary offer: If Republicans retain control of the House and Senate, Trump said he would issue $5,000 dividends to all American adults. ("$5,000 for every American? Trump's similar 'dividends' haven’…

President Donald Trump's construction spree in Washington now tops an estimated $1.4 billion, and Congress hasn't approved a dime of it.
How sad reading Jack Buck's poem from Sept. 17, 2001. ("Benjamin Hochman: Jack Buck helped ×îÐÂÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ heal after 9/11. His poem resonates 25 years later." Sept. 4.) It heralds America for being the "bastion of freedom" as we brutalize and deport those who legally sought asylum-even to alien c…
As we approach the 25th anniversary of the attacks of 9/11, we have time to reflect how our lives have changed. We were attacked by surprise, and we immediately became more vigilant about everything from our mail to our airport security.
Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins has strongly supported President Donald Trump’s election-integrity initiatives, including additional federal requirements affecting mail-in voting. ("Editorial: Don’t wait for Trump's Postal Service to block your rights. Make voting plans now," Sept. 3.)
I am a retired Air Force veteran and an independent voter. I voted for Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. I did not vote for him in 2024.
