OPINION

The Right Side

By J. Gary DiLaura

Mr. President; if you will not take charge of matters demanding your attention, then, at least, declassify those matters that Obama sealed, hid, over-classified to protect himself, Hillary Clinton, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch and others!

Former President Obama lived a life of lies and deceit before becoming president and expanded his deceitful ways into very serious crimes, during his eight years of his “mission’, in my opinion.

Obama “sealed”, classified, and otherwise hid Fast and Furious papers from purview, like he did his passport, his college FAF forms, his Social Security Numbers, and many other records, including those overflowing into the deceit used in the FISA courts!

I am certain there is no other reason for Obama to either classify or use Executive Privilege to hide the facts from the Congress Intelligence Committee and the family of our Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, other than to protect Eric Holder and/or himself from possible criminal charges for blatant criminal negligence or some other crimes.

The use by Obama of our FISA court for, what I believe was his “personal Black Ops” agency, to monitor his political foes, news reporters, those who were critical of him, and other personal reasons, seems to be overwhelming. Who else would… who else could have ordered Samantha Powers to unmask the identity of over 300 US citizens in Obama’s last year, 2016?

Clapper, Brennan and Rice all say, under oath, that they know nothing about it. So who ordered the unmasking?  Unmasking is not a minor deal, it is a major deal!  The names of citizens discovered during a FISA over hear of foreigners, according to FISA Law, are to be deleted. Who ordered the unmasking and why? Congress and We, the People, demand an answer!

Only the president can review the FISA court evidence and make the determination, if a crime probably was committed, who should investigate and then order the investigation.

Only the president can declassify documents that agencies refuse to declassify!

The president of the United States doesn’t “ask” the Attorney General or FBI Director to open or close an investigation; he tells them to do so! He may ask their opinion and then direct them to act but the president “is” the boss.

He doesn’t ask. He directs. That is what President Trump, in my opinion, must start doing or, at the very least, he should start reviewing evidence and see what the hell is going on!

Declassify the records DOJ is withholding from Congress. It is Obama holdovers who are refusing to release. I’ll bet money on that!

He should, at the very least, examine all the FISA papers regarding the Carter Page case and then, if warranted, declassify all those documents, so Congress can do their  job. If the president doesn’t want to take charge for whatever reason then allow Congress and We, the People know if Obama abused the FISA court system and the Rights of Citizens, against illegal Search and Seizure!

Craig Bucki Stands Out in Race for Supreme Court, Has All the Tools to Be Strong Judge

By tony Farina · September 16, 2026

By Tony Farina I’ve covered many court proceedings and trials in my more than 35 years as a newspaper and television reporter and I want to make the point at the beginning of this story that whether elected or appointed, some judges are fair and honest and many others fall short of the mark. In other words, the word jurist does not convey skill and knowledge of the law; it is just a role that some serve with distinction, and others do not. By definition, a jurist is a person who has expert or thorough knowledge of the law but

Is Niagara Falls Crisis Self-Inflicted? Lots of Questions, Few Answers

By tony Farina · September 15, 2026

By Tony Farina There are certainly many questions swirling around the mayor’s declaration of a state of emergency in Niagara Falls over trash, blight, and deteriorating streets that was declared back on July 20 and has been extended several times since because, according to Mayor Robert Restaino, the City Council refused to approve contractor agreements. But some observers point to depleted staff at City Hall, like in Public Works and Code Enforcement and other departments, as really self-inflicted wounds that are the underlying reasons work is not getting done in the city. Or is there even more to the story,

NIAGARA FALLS BUILT THE MODERN WORLD ON ITS POWER. IT CAN DO IT AGAIN.

The  Data Center That Answers Hochul’s Objections There was a time when Niagara Falls did not ask Albany whether it was permitted to prosper. The river was here. That was enough. The town had something Albany couldn’t give it. It used what was here. Water. Power. Work. Jobs. Industry. A future. In 1895, the Adams plant took the river and put it into wire. The current went to Buffalo. It changed the industrial world. Tesla supplied the designs. Westinghouse built the machines. Niagara supplied the falling water. Then industries came. Electrochemical. Electrometallurgical. They came because Niagara offered abundant, inexpensive electricity.

Niagara Falls Has Millions of Tourists But Needs to Find a Way to Capture That Wealth

By tony Farina · September 8, 2026

By Tony Farina The City of Niagara Falls, N.Y., boasts one of the world’s greatest natural wonders that people from around the world come to see, but despite incredible tourism numbers of more than nine million visitors a year, the city of now less than 50,000 people is still pretty darn poor. Niagara Falls does not have a tourism problem; it has a tourism-capture problem, and the distinction should be a starting point for a serious new discussion about the city’s future. And ladies and gentlemen, that discussion needs to start now. The question is no longer whether Niagara Falls
