ANOTHER VIEW: Blacks, too, can gain more strength through green power

By Jack Bernard  |  The saying above is accurate.  The bottom line in America is that it is the bottom line that matters. To get respect, you must be economically successful, along with having basic integrity and other positive qualities like work ethic, honesty and intelligence.

FOCUS: On Trump and secret documents: Is he the Manchurian candidate?

By Jack Bernard, contributing columnist |  Former Attorney General William Barr stated the above regarding U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon’s recent decision to appoint a “special master” to screen the multitude of top-secret documents found at former President Trump’s residence at Mar-A Lago. It is no accident that Trump’s attorneys sought out a Trump-appointed judge, someone who decided to appoint a special master without ever having seen the confidential documents in question herself.

ANOTHER VIEW: “Defund the FBI” statements are hurting the GOP

By Jack Bernard, contributing columnist   |  I’m an anomaly. I’m a social progressive who comes from a law enforcement family. My favorite uncle was a Lieutenant with the New York Police Department who ran a precinct in Brooklyn. My closest cousin is a retired prison guard. Another close first cousin retired from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. And I believe that the law enforcement occupation deserves our respect.
