This column is reserved for comments from liberal and progressive readers, as well as regular contributors. But there is plenty of space available in the right column for those of you who lean right, whether never-Trumper conservative or pro-MAGA populist or libertarian. 

Today we feature the latest right column by Pundit-at-Large Stephen Macaulay, who proudly counts himself as a never-Trumper. That does not mean you will be left out if you write a civil, fact-based pro-MAGA response.

We are pro-free speech, but we are anti-Section 230, so we moderate comments, just like a traditional newspaper. We think that makes commenting by the public safe and comfortable. 

Simply email your Comments to editors@thehustings.news and let us know how you identify, politically, in the subject line (so we post comments in the correct column). 

Question of the week is whether the incoming Trump White House will maintain about 900 US troops in Syria following the ouster of brutal dictator Bashar al-Assad.

This week, we especially welcome readers’ comments on President-elect Trump’s plans for undocumented aliens (or, “illegals” if you prefer), import tariffs and retribution against the January 6^th Committee. We are also looking for your comments on the overthrow of Syrian’s notorious President Bashar al-Assad and on President Biden’s pardon last week for his son. 

Is there important political news you think we are missing? We’ll publish your comments about that, too.
