The Left Column

The Hustings will cover tonight’s presidential address to the joint session of Congress, which begins at 9 p.m. Eastern time. Our contributing pundits from the right and left will comment on President Biden’s comments and proposals here Thursday, April 29. 

We would like your comments on Biden’s address as well. Please email your opinion of his address and we will post it along with our contributors’ commentaries on this home page. Please include your city and state, or state’s region with your name.

The objective of The Hustings is to have political discourse — not those Molotov cocktails thrown back and forth on Facebook and Twitter, “arguments” that are simply tantrums — between thoughtful people. What we would like to have is a sufficient number of comments—from both sides—such that we can post them on a weekly basis. Whether you want to provide a sentence or a paragraph, all that we ask is that you be reasoned and respectful. 

Also in this column: “Public Health and Safety Should be the Goal,” Michelle Naranjo’s commentary on the center-column report, ‘Biden Vows George Floyd Justice in Policing will become Law.’
