Dear Editor:

 Last week, I wrote a letter addressing some of the many lies our government officials have told us. Included in those lies was the well-documented fib about the COVID-19 vaccine’s ineffectiveness in preventing infection or stopping transmission. While much ink has been spilled over why our government told this giant whopper of a lie, it’s worth taking a look back at some of our thought leaders’ responses to this lie, both before and after the truth was revealed.

Dear Editor:

 When it came to his post-election analysis, Mr. Kadinsky had a hyper-partisan take that was not based in facts - sort of like his pre-election candidate piece. He says people voted for candidates, not party, but the results show many people just voted for Democrats without any regard for the candidate. But he also has some false statements as well.

Dear Editor:

 Admit it. One of your peccadillos (okay, they’re mine) is to try to guess how much your future or present in-law (father, mother, brother, son, daughter, etc.) earns. Cha-ching, cha-ching! Well, New York City to the rescue! Most companies in New York City have to include salary ranges in job postings. Thanks to this rule, we can now save an inordinate amount of time guessing what someone makes.

Dear Editor:

 President Joe Biden, Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claim that our southern border is secure. Under the Biden administration, we are on track to reach a record five million people illegally crossing into our nation by the end of December 2022.
