S’town group rescues dog chained outside for 15 years By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com One dog in Smithtown has more than a few guardian angels watching over him. Bear has spent 15 years chained to a doghouse in the backyard of a Smithtown home, but as of Jan. 23, he’s officially off the leash. The black lab has Guardians of Rescue, a Smithtown-based organization that works to provide aid to animals in distress, including facilitating foster programs, rehabilitation and assisting other rescue groups, to thank for his new-found freedom. “We received a call about a dog in need of a doghouse,” Robert Misseri, founder and president of the group, said. “But when we got there, it was even worse than that. That’s when we discovered the poor dog had spent his whole life attached to a heavy chain. We knew then and there that we had to do something to make a difference in that dog’s life, and so we did.” The group said Bear had endured harsh winters with little attention. The guardians said they spoke with the dog owner, who agreed to surrender the animal to the rescue group. “It’s excellent,” Guardians of Rescue member Bill Misseri said as Bear was cut free from the chains. “It’s nice to see the dog get off the chain after 15 years and live out the rest of its life with a nice older family, perhaps who will treat him right. He’ll lay around inside and have a good rest of his life.” Bear was cut free, loaded into the front seat of a pickup and sent to the groomer. The group is currently searching for a per-

animals as we can, but we can’t do it without the help of the community,” Robert Misseri said. “One phone call from someone in the community set the wheels in motion that have changed Bear’s life. That’s a true success story and why we exist.” Guardians of Rescue has a new show “The Guardians,” which airs on Animal Planet Saturdays at 10 p.m. The show depicts the work of the group as they travel Long Island rescuing animals and providing them with a better life. The community can assist the group by watching out for animals in need and contacting the organization when they see one in distress. To learn more or get involved, visit www.guardiansofrescue.org.

Superintendents speak out against Trump’s secretary of education nominee By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com Many North Shore superintendents and educators are concerned with President Donald Trump’s (R) nominee for secretary of education: Betsy DeVos, chairman of The Windquest Group, a privately-held investment and management firm based in Michigan, to serve as secretary of education. According to her website, the Michigan resident has a history in politics spanning more than 35 years. She was elected as chairman of the Michigan Republican Party four times, and worked in a leadership capacity for campaigns, party organizations and political action committees, her website states. DeVos went before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions for a confirmation hearing Jan. 17. “I share President-elect Trump’s view that it’s time to shift the debate from what the system thinks is best for kids to what moms and dads want, expect and deserve,” DeVos said during her opening remarks at the hearing. “Why, in 2017, are we still questioning parents’ ability to exercise educational choice for their children? I am a firm believer that parents should be empowered to choose the learning environment that’s best for their individual children. The vast majority of students in this country will continue to attend public schools. If confirmed, I will be a strong advocate for great public schools. But, if a school is troubled, or unsafe, or not a good fit for a child — perhaps they have a special

need that is going unmet — we should support a parent’s right to enroll their child in a high-quality alternative.” DeVos’ views on public education created a stir around the country, and superintendents from the North Shore and county as a whole joined the chorus of those skeptical about the direction she might take the country’s education system. “I have devoted my entire adult life to public education and believe it is the bedrock of our democracy,” Port Jefferson school district Superintendent Paul Casciano said in an email. “Any programs and initiatives that attempt to weaken public education by diverting funds away from it or that offer alternatives that are not subjected to the same strict standards and scrutiny that public schools must live by, do not have my support.” Kings Park Superintendent Tim Eagen echoed many of Casciano’s concerns. “I find President Trump’s nomination for Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, to be unacceptable,” he said in an email. “Education in this country is at an important crossroads. As an educational leader and parent of two public school students, it is my goal to provide our children with a globally competitive, rigorous, relevant and challenging education that will prepare them to be active, contributing members of society.” Eagen also has concerns about DeVos’ qualifications. “I believe that Betsy DeVos is unqualified to run the U.S. Department of Educa-

tion,” he said. “She is a businesswoman and politician without any experience in public service or public education. She does not have an education degree, has no teaching experience, has no experience working in a school environment, never attended public school or a state university, and did not send

her own four children to public school.” The Miller Place school district’s administration and board of education drafted and passed a resolution opposing DeVos’ appointment. Superintendent Marianne Higuera addressed the appointment in an open letter on the district’s website. “Our concerns are twofold,” she said. “The first reservation we have is regarding the candidate’s lack of first-hand experience as an educator or administrator within the public school system. Since the majority of the children in the United States are currently being educated within the public school system, we feel that this experience is very important for an effective Secretary of Education.” Higuera elaborated on her other issues with DeVos. “Her record also shows a clear bias towards private, parochial and charter schools and the use of vouchers to attend these schools,” Higuera said. “This bias leads us to our second overarching concern with Betsy DeVos as a candidate for Secretary of Education. The concern is that Betsy DeVos has been a strong advocate for the use of public funds to attend private schools through vouchers, and this would have a direct negative impact on our public school system’s fiscal stability if it is put into effect on a national level.” The committee will vote to either approve or deny DeVos’ nomination Jan. 31.

Suffolk County Police arrested a Copiague man who they said was smoking marijuana, carrying an illegal weapon and had 95 suspensions on his license Wednesday, Jan. 25. Second Precinct Crime Section officers Heather McQuade and Bobby Temple were at the park and ride on Commack Road and Expressway Drive South in Commack when they smelled marijuana emanating from a 2001 Nissan sedan. The officers ap-

proached the driver of the vehicle, Jerry Tenzie, and discovered he had 95 suspensions on his license from nine different dates. Further investigation revealed he was in possession of an illegal rifle. Tenzie, 47, was arrested and charged with second-degree aggravated unlicensed operation, fifth-degree criminal possession of marijuana and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon. Tenzie was held at the 2nd Precinct and was arraigned at First District Court in Central Islip Jan. 25. No attorney information was immediately available.

PersPectives

My favorite moments from the presidential inauguration weekend By james moore I went to the 2017 presidential inauguration as an alumnus of the Junior National Young Leadership Conference. I was excited to be involved in a significant part of history. However, the swearing in ceremony wasn’t the only highlight of my five-day experience. On my second and fourth day in Washington, D.C. I had the chance to witness speakers such as Paul Begala from CNN, Tucker Carlson from Fox News, Pakistani diplomat Ziauddin Yousafzai, Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai, General Colin Powell, actor and director Spike Lee and retired Olympic soccer player Abby Wambach at Eagle Bank Arena. The speeches I listened to were very diverse; some were entertaining, others were comical and all were inspirational. Before my trip I had been looking forward to Malala’s speech the most, having heard her story. But the one that drew me in the most — even though they were all great — was her father’s speech about how throughout his childhood he realized how fortunate he was to get an education. His sisters were not as lucky. He decided no matter what, he was going to make sure his daughter pursued her education as well. Not only did this set a perfect foundation for his daughter’s speech, but it showed just how much he cares for his daughter and be-

lieves in the rights of girls and women. I also really enjoyed Abby Wambach’s speech because she strongly emphasized teamwork and the ability to work toward common goals together. My biggest takeaway from her was I need to take responsibility for my actions, no matter what they are. As some people may know, she was arrested for driving under the influence last year and was deeply disappointed in herself. On Facebook she posted “I take full responsibility for my actions. This is all on me. I promise that I will do whatever it takes to ensure that my horrible mistake is never repeated.” This will leave a lasting impression on me to ensure I don’t make these types of mistakes in the future — but in the off chance I do slip up once — I plan to take full responsibility just like Wombach did, as well as encourage others to take accountability for their actions. The inauguration Friday was jam-packed and required us to be up by 4 a.m. at the latest. We had to walk about 1.5 miles from where our buses were parked in order to go around the Washington Monument and take a break at the Smithsonian Institution. Then, there was the walk to the National Mall. We all enjoyed sitting on our emergency ponchos and watching the guards on surrounding buildings do hand motions. Once the monitors turned on that was the center of attention for the next hour and a half. It was a unique

james moore smiles before he attends one of the many speeches given during inauguration weekend. experience to know that the world was watching the same thing that was only steps away from where I was. For those few moments history was being made and in a small way I was part of it. Following the inauguration ceremony we, as a group, focused on how our generation will impact the future. We were split into delegation groups by topics and my group was focused on health care, disease and the world of tomorrow. There was a scholarship competition, and although I can’t say I won, I did have a group of friends that managed to get

to the finals with a presentation based on how we can improve the health care conditions for the lower and middle classes. I had a lot of fun working with this group of scholars and I’m proud to be able to say they’re my friends. I managed to make friends from Florida, Virginia, Kentucky, North Dakota, Missouri and many more. We all hope to stay in touch and maybe even meet up at the next Inauguration!

Marchers make their voices heard Photos above by Alison Perry; photos right and below by Alex Petroski

Port Jefferson Station played host to its own Women’s March Jan. 21 to oppose the inflammatory rhetoric of President Donald Trump (R) and some of his proposed policies. Those who couldn’t make it to Washington, D.C., or New York City met at the corner of Route 347 and Route 112 in Port Jefferson Station to peacefully voice their displeasure with what they’ve heard from the new administration.

Hundreds flock to Port Jeff Station for Women’s March By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com While millions across the globe took part in the Women’s March on Washington, and other sister marches Jan. 21, hundreds met on the corner of Route 347 and Route 112 in Port Jefferson Station to make their voices heard. “The rhetoric of the past election cycle has insulted, demonized and threatened many of us — immigrants of all statuses, Muslims and those of diverse religious faiths, people who identify as LGBTQIA, Native people, black and brown people, people with disabilities, survivors of sexual assault — and our communities are hurting and scared,” the Women’s March website, established to organize the marches, said in its mission statement. Community members who attended the event from across the North Shore reiterated many of those concerns during the march in Port Jefferson Station, which according to the site was the only affiliated sister march on Long Island. “Getting out here in unity and letting our voices be heard is crucial,” Port Jefferson resident Kathy Lahey said over a megaphone to those in attendance. Lahey said she was responsible for organizing the sister march, getting the word out and getting it officially recognized as an affiliate on the website. “We are all in this together. Together we will fight for equality, for fairness and for justice. I wanted to say something today to make all of the anxiety, the anger and fear go away, but that’s not going to happen. It shouldn’t happen because times are rough and the current circumstances call for anxiety, anger and fear.” Women, men and children of all ages, races and backgrounds were represented at the Women’s March on Washington. The march and affiliated marches were intentionally scheduled to be an immediate response to the inauguration Jan. 20 of President Donald Trump (R) as a means to combat what participants view as his alienating rhetoric during the campaign and since his election victory, as well as to voice opposition to several policies

on his agenda and nominations for his cabinet. Health care, equal rights, demanding the release of the president’s tax returns and immigration policy were among the topics most frequently referenced by signs and chants by attendees. President Trump addressed the worldwide marches through his personal Twitter account. “Peaceful protests are a hallmark of our democracy. Even if I don’t always agree, I recognize the rights of people to express their views,” he said Jan. 22, though earlier he tweeted that if all present had gone out and voted they may have been heard sooner. Many in attendance said they weren’t sure what to expect when they decided to attend, but were blown away by the unity and solidarity they felt upon arriving. “My initial reaction when I pulled up was I burst into tears because I’m sad that we have to be here, but in the end I’m left feeling very empowered because even though the road to progress is a jagged road, in the end love will always win,” Daniela McKee of Setauket said. McKee said she is a teacher, and brought her own kids with her to experience the event. “I think it’s important that they learn from a very early age that they have to fight for what they believe in and for their rights and equality.” Joyce Edward a resident of Jefferson Ferry, who is in her 90s, shared her reasons for marching. “We’re going so far back, it’s sad,” she said. “I think it is important and I hope that maybe our Congress people will pay attention. I don’t think Mr. Trump will. He pays attention to one person: himself.” Edward added that her deep concern for where the country is headed for her children and grandchildren inspired her to get out and participate. She questioned if 1st Congressional District U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley), who has been a vocal Trump supporter since he emerged as the Republican presidential candidate, would be an advocate for those unhappy with the president’s beliefs and proposed policies. “If he’s behind Trump then I’m not behind

him,” Jeff Schroeder of Greenport also said of Zeldin. “It scares me that someone so far off from the ideologies of people I know is running our district.” Zeldin addressed the march in an emailed statement through a spokeswoman. “2017 presents new opportunities to improve our community, state and nation,” he said. “To move our country forward, unity amongst the American people is the most critical necessity. Ideological differences will always exist, but the pursuit of common ground must be the highest priority. In Congress, I have always been and remain willing to work with absolutely anyone to find common ground on anything wherever and whenever possible.” U.S. Sen. and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was among those marching in New York City. “Thank you to all the New Yorkers, Americans and people in NY, Washington, and all over the world who laced up your shoes today,” he said in an email. “It was only the beginning.” Several marchers said they were encouraged by the overwhelming support the large crowd provided for them. “It’s so heartening that people realize that they can actually be involved in changing things in government,” Sherry Eckstein of Huntington said. Allyson Matwey of Wading River expressed a similar sentiment. “I did not know what to expect coming here today, and I’m just in awe that there’s men, women, children — all ages, all everything here today, and it’s amazing,” she said. Mitchell Riggs of Middle Island attended the local march with two of his children, while his wife attended the New York City march. “We just need to be heard — the frustration about what’s going on,” he said. “I have a daughter. I have a wife … it can’t get worse in my mind.” While addressing the crowd, Lahey stressed the importance of seeing the march as the beginning of a movement, and not a solitary event. “President Obama also said at his farewell speech that change only happens when

Our first president once said, “The peaceful transition of power is what will separate this country from every other country in the world.” George Washington’s words remain vitally important and true to this day. I was honored and privileged to sit on the podium to witness history as the outgoing 44th president of the United States handed off his title and position to the incoming 45th president of our great nation. I was very pleased that so many 1st Congressional District residents made the trip to the Capitol to participate in this time honored tradition. Inauguration Day of a new president is a celebration of freedom and liberty, much more than a celebration

of a political victory. For that reason, I was deeply disappointed that dozens of members of Congress opted to boycott the ceremony altogether. My message to them is that you do not have to celebrate President Trump’s election in order to participate in this transfer of power, especially when their followers, as well as the rest of the world, are watching. While the 2016 election cycle was dramatic and polarizing, we must unite as Americans to find common ground wherever possible. There will always be differences which separate us, whether they are ideological or geographical, but we must remember that we are all Americans. If we are to make progress, we must work to find unity however we can for the benefit of our nation. A new year, new president and new Congress provides limitless opportunities to move our country forward in a better direction. As leaders, we have dedicated ourselves to pursuing a better course for our nation, and we should give President Trump a chance to succeed and work with him wherever there are mutual goals to be achieved on behalf of our fellow citizens. Inauguration Day 2017 was the first presidential inauguration that I have experienced in person and it will be a memory to last a lifetime, because leaders of all stripes were on that stage together to celebrate everything that makes our nation the greatest nation in the world. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) represents the 1st Congressional District. In Congress, Rep. Zeldin serves on two House committees: financial services and foreign affairs.

Did You Know That A Local Purchase Can Benefit The Local Economy 3 Times More Than The Same Purchase At A Chain Retailer?

File photo by Victoria Espinoza

This year marks the 29th year Huntington Town Clerk Jo-Ann Raia has been serving as the town’s marriage officer. In addition, this is the 22nd year Raia will be performing her Valentine’s Day marriage ceremony “Marathon” Tuesday, Feb. 14. The town board room, where the ceremonies are performed, will be transformed into a wonderland for love’s greatest holiday. Local merchants including bakers, florists, supermarkets, pharmacies and photographers are supportive of this event and the list of contributors has grown over the years. Cakes, cookies, flowers and gifts,

including one from Raia, help to make the event a festive one every year. “The couples I have united over the years have received this idea enthusiastically and it has been a privilege and a pleasure for me to unite these couples,” Raia said. Raia will perform both marriage ceremonies and vow renewals. There is no charge to the couple for the ceremony and their guests are welcome to attend the reception. For further information or if you would like to make an appointment, please call the Town Clerk’s Office at 631-351-3216.

Clockwise from left, Tiffany slicklein leaps up to the rim; sam schultz carries the ball into east islip’s zone; Taylor slicklein moves the ball around a defender as she drives to the basket; and sam Hogan dribbles.

Home or not, Slicklein and Schultz rule the court By Desirée Keegan desiree@tbrnewspaper.com The Kingsmen are a powerhouse full of offensive threats — and as has been the case all season, senior Tiffany Slicklein and junior Sam Schultz stole the show this week. The dynamic duo scored 20 points each in a 74-54 win over East Islip Jan. 24. Kings Park girls’ basketball head coach Tom Edmundson said the victory was just what the team needed after a pause in performance last week. “It was tough,” the coach said of the two games against Hauppauge and Bellport, the first resulting in a loss and the second a close-call win. “We were talking about picking up the intensity, picking up the pace and coming out and playing well, and I think we did. I was telling the girls they need to build off this. We’re kind of right there on the doorsteps, so we need to start playing our best basketball. This was a pretty good example of that.”

Kings Park 74 East Islip 54

The team has five more games before playoffs start. The next matchup will be a home contest against a tough Half Hollow Hills West team. When the Kingsmen saw their opponent last, Jan. 3, they pulled away with a close 63-60 win. “This is definitely a confidence booster” Schultz said, who added eight rebounds and four assists. “ Everyone got on the board today, everyone was taking shots, so hopefully that translates to the game against Half Hollow Hills West — we had a tough game against them last time — and to the rest of the season.” Slicklein and fellow senior Selena Ubriaco traded baskets for the first few Kings Park scores, Slicklein scoring six points and Ubriaco tallying five, before Schultz got the ball rolling. After grabbing a put-back on Slicklein’s missed extra-point attempt at a threepoint play, she scored the next two field goals for Kings Park. At the end of the first quarter, the team had a 10-point lead, 21-11. Schultz continued her scoring streak in the second, adding a field goal, three-pointer and free throw, all the first points for Kings Park in the next eight minutes. “She can knock down the three, she can get to the rim, she makes free throws, she has a complete game,” Edmundson said of his athlete. “She’s the kind of player that will definitely play at the next level, and she’s only a junior. She’s just fantastic.” But Schultz credits her teammates for her scoring. “This is my fourth year on the team and I can always count on them to get me the ball if I’m open or communicating on offense, seeing the extra pass, being unselfish — and I think that helped me personally get my shots,” she said. “But it really helps us all as a team.” Schultz had 17 first-half points, and Slicklein added 14. The pair played in the third quarter, but Edmundson continued to get his

bench players time on the court, and had all starters except sophomore Sam Hogan sit in the fourth. “I’m not looking for one girl to score all the time — although it does happen to work out that way — but our offense is geared toward everybody,” the head coach said. “I think we have a very good team, I think we have one of the best teams in the county and I think we’ll be right there with a chance to win a county championship. I think we have the ability to and I think we have the talent to.” Slicklein, who scored her 1,000th career point last week, had a double-double in the game with 10 rebounds and also had seven blocks. “We call her LeBron James because she can do everything,” Edmundson said. “She’s leading the team in rebounds, steals, assists, points, although Sam [Schultz] might have just taken over because they’ve been neck and neck all year, but she does it all. It’s very rare

that you have a girl that has the ability to score on every possession, but is also willing to give it up and distribute the way she does.” Shultz also shares the wealth. Slicklein said she’s enjoyed working alongside her teammate. “We know exactly where each other are, we’ve been playing together for a while and it’s good to play with a girl who knows how to play like that,” she said. “It’s always fun.” Slicklein’s twin sister Taylor finished with 11 points and eight rebounds. Hogan had eight points. Schultz said she’s hoping the total team success can propel the team further into the postseason this year. Tiffany Slicklein said she thinks if any Kings Park team can do it, it’s this one. “We’re getting ready,” Schultz said of the team preparing for playoffs. “Each and every practice we’re working hard, getting better, working on the little things and it’s all coming full circle — with good timing, too.”

PersPectives

Why I participated and believe in the Women’s March By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com This past weekend more than one million people gathered across the world to participate in the Women’s March, a grassroots movement organized by multiple independent coordinators. I am proud to have been one of those million or so. As diverse as the crowds were at each sister march across the country so were the reasons each person marched. The mission of the Women’s March on Washington, to give its full title, was to stand up and protect the rights of every man, woman and child in the United States. Their website states the rhetoric of the last election cycle alienated, insulted and demonized many groups including immigrants, Muslims and those of diverse religious faiths, people who identify as LGBTQIA, Native people, people with disabilities, and survivors of sexual assault. Make no mistake, this is a fact — and no, Kellyanne Conway, in no way is it an alternative fact. President Donald Trump (R) alienated many groups during the campaign season. Speeches and comments targeted Hispanics, the disabled, women and many more. Trump’s own past words serve as verification of this fact with quotes like, “When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.” So for those asking why marchers felt the need to protest, there should be no confusion: People felt the need to stand up, defend and support each other after the litany of comments made in 2016 and earlier by the president, and for others the promises and administration choices made since. This march was meant to show they

I marched to be an ally, but to also send a message to my government that my political consciousness is alive and well, and I will be watching and reacting to everything the new administration puts forward. This is not simply to make myself feel better when I air my grievances about the state of the country. In early January, Republican members of Congress voted during a closed-door meeting to place the independent Office of Congressional Ethics under the control of those lawmakers. The proposal would have barred the panel from reviewing any violation of criminal law by members of Congress, and give the House Committee on Ethics the power to stop an investigation at any point. Currently the ethics panel operates as an in-

dependent, nonpartisan entity. Although it was served as ethics reform, public outcry condemning the legislation caused lawmakers to pull the bill almost immediately. The public in this act was informed of the workings of their government, reacted, and was able to turn the tide. This is what the Women’s March represents to me — the beginning of a greater level of awareness. The day after the march, the organization released their next step in continuing to fight for the rights of all citizens: 10 Actions in 100 Days. Their first action is a letter-writing campaign to senators to keep the conversation going. Various media reports are saying the Women’s March was the largest march in U.S. history.

Let’s look back at other significant marches. The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963 saw more than 250,000 listen to the words of Martin Luther King Jr., demanding equality. The following year the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed. The first major anti-Vietnam War protest with between 500,000 and 600,00 people was held in 1969. Several more rallies, marches and protests were planned after that and in 1973 America had officially ended its involvement. Of course these marches are not the sole reason change took place. But they were certainly part of a domino effect. The People’s Climate Change March in 2014 was the largest climate-change march in history, and although most scientists would agree we still have a long way to go, the Paris Agreement of 2015 marked a historic turning point for dealing with the world’s emission of greenhouse gases. Anyone who felt inspired and enthused by the marches across the globe last Saturday shouldn’t just sit back to reflect. Continue to be informed and voice opinions, because it matters. Former President Barack Obama (D) said, “If you’re disappointed by your elected officials, grab a clipboard, get some signatures, and run for office yourself,” during his farewell address. For all the participants, you were a part of one of the largest nonviolent protests in history — with zero arrests in Washington, D.C., and New York City, the marches with the most numbers. Be proud of your involvement, stay informed and do not stop letting your voice be heard. Victoria Espinoza is the editor of the Times of Huntington and Northport and the Times of Smithtown.

Letters to the editor

U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin on election night after his and Donald Trump’s big victories.

File photo by Alex Petroski

A letter to U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin Stock photo

Responsibility beyond our ballots Do you suppose the Founding Fathers intended democracy to be a spectator sport, or did they envision a country filled with informed citizens willing to actively participate in a representative government? Whatever their intent, we have come to a point in our history when it behooves us to speak up. We must let our voices be heard — not just when we cast our votes on Election Day — but whenever we need to let our representatives know what we think about proposed legislation or policy initiatives or nominations for important positions. Politicians need to be told what’s important to us. Especially the “deal-breaker” issues about which we feel there can be no leeway. Call our congress members. Whether we voted for them or not, they are still our spokespeople in the House of Representatives. Call our senators. If we agree or disagree with them, they need to be told. We can call politicians in states other than New York and share our pride in their stance on an issue, or our dismay. Call our governor. Andrew Cuomo (D) needs to know if we think he’s on the right track. Giving our names and ZIP codes will create logged calls, registering our opinions. And if enough of us express a particular view, it will, hopefully, affect a decision. Everyone needs to realize that voting is not just a right — it’s a responsibility. Some say if we don’t vote we forfeit our right to complain. Well we believe in taking that philosophy one step further. Our responsibility doesn’t end when our ballots are cast. We need to remain involved in our American democracy to ensure that our country is the kind of place we want it to be. Pay attention. Stay informed. Make those calls. President Donald Trump: Senator Chuck Schumer:

Let me first say that I continue to hope that President Trump brings back good paying jobs to the middle class. And I hope you work with him to bring those jobs to Long Island, along with health care for everyone as Trump promised last week. But in the president’s first full day in office, I am very disturbed by his blatant lies. Let’s just talk about the size of the inauguration audience. On Saturday he said, “Honestly it looked like a million and a half people,” while most reports are approximately 250,000. Trump doubled down with his press secretary Sean Spicer who continued this lie, stating, “The largest audience to ever witness an inauguration” and his spokeswoman Kellyanne

Conway, who later stated that Spicer was presenting “alternative facts.” To help propagate these lies, Trump ordered the National Park Service to stop reporting on the actual size of the audience. The response to these lies was swift from the media – including Fox News. Here is Chris Wallace from Fox News Sunday: “OK, you talk about honesty and say that this was about honesty. Well, there’s another issue here, though, and that is the president’s honesty, because two things that he said yesterday were just flat wrong.” MerriamWebster Dictionary also tweeted to Conway that there are no alternatives to facts. My great fear is that Trump is engaged in what can only

be labeled a “misinformation campaign” aimed at helping him alone be the “guardian of the truth.” This is exactly the type of totalitarian behavior our forefathers revolted against, and this is why we have a free press protected by the First Amendment to our constitution. Trump’s blatant disregard for the truth and for the free press should be upsetting and threatening to every American. Where are you, our representative, Mr. Zeldin? Why are you not standing up against this misinformation and press-shaming? You are supposed to represent us, the people; and at the very least stand for truth.

Jaymie Meliker Port Jefferson

Trump can’t compare to previous presidents In response to the writer of “Welcome to a legitimate President Trump” (Jan. 19) I beg to differ on quite a few counts. I heard the voice of my dearly departed mother, who was extremely wise and politically savvy, while listening to every speech Trump gave and every ridiculous promise that he made. She always advised me to respect myself as a woman (and a human being) and to stand up for what I believe in. Well Mr. Kerr and those who accept what you have written, I do not concede to the presidency of Donald Trump, nor will I ever. You cannot possibly compare this farce to the presidencies of Kennedy, Carter, Nixon, Johnson or even Gerald Ford. Although all imperfect in their own ways, you can-

not compare their presidential legacies to the predetermined theme of the man who will be in office on Jan. 20. The man who denigrates women, instigates violence among protesters, dehumanizes immigrants, stomps on the Constitution (while not understanding a word of it) and plans to destroy every bit of progress made by the Obama administration, is not the man that I want running my country. This alternate universe that we currently live in where cabinet choices are made by picking out of a hat and tweets are sent with the same cavalier attitude that ended his marriages, this is not a reality that I choose to accept. Call me crazy, but it took long enough for one Cold War to end, and Putin is just salivating at the

thought of sharing the political stage with the Man with the Orange Skin. And quoting Richard Nixon does not instill a “runs like a Swiss watch” feeling about the incoming administration. Call a spade a spade: Trump is the least qualified, most horrific person that has ever been “elected” to the White House by our outdated, imperfect electoral process. Should he last through the next four years, I will be doing everything in my power to make sure there is a different outcome in 2020.

Well, maybe people don’t want advertising and marketing jobs, but they do want to express themselves in ways guaranteed by the Constitution. How could the Founding Fathers have known that the war with words, on words and of words would require an ability of people on both sides to understand that each of them has a right to speak? The Women’s March, the day By Daniel Dunaief after the inauguration, was a spectacle. People from around the nation, indeed the world, took considerable time to write, design and share signs about any and

every issue important to them. People are searching for the words to share their convictions. One sign read, “Without Hermione, Harry would have died,” referring to the brilliant friend of Harry Potter whose smarts helped Harry survive despite numerous murderous attempts by Voldemort. Another sign suggested, “So bad, even introverts are here.” The president’s hair, a subject for television discussion well before the commander in chief left for the White House, made it onto several signs, with “We shall overcomb,” offering one of many toupee moments. Whether the Trump administration recognizes or addresses it, we are a nation divided and, no, that’s not a statement about the size of the crowd at the inauguration. Who cares? If not a single person attended the inauguration, do you know what we would be calling Donald Trump? President. I understand that and so do all those people writing signs, discussing the future direction of the country

and arguing over the internet. I know Trump and his team seem disillusioned with the media. The president can’t stand the way he’s covered, but plenty of past presidents no doubt could relate to his discomfort. Trump has tried to ostracize the media, going straight to the people with his creatively spelled Twitter messages. One woman used Trump’s penchant for direct messages with a sign saying, “Tweet women with respect.” Trump continues to make the argument about the number of people who voted for him. Can someone please tell him he won the election? By walking side-by-side in marches, people aren’t sitting comfortably at home typing angry computer messages: They’re sharing their views and are traveling to see people “in real life.” This is not — to borrow from Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” — “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” These are people sharing a message they hope others and, in particular, the administration, hears and understands.

Trump didn’t get to the White House propelled by the hopes of these sign makers. He won the votes of millions who believed in him. He wants to make America great again. He and his voters have red hats to prove it. That’s great and maybe the sale of red hats will be sufficient to create more jobs, just as his office has increased the sale of poster boards, crayons, markers and block-lettering kits through these marches. No doubt, Trump, his team and many other Americans will come up with great slogans and catchy one-liners to offset the marchers’ messages. What will bring us together? Maybe there’ll be a moment similar to the one in the movie “Miracle,” which was about the improbable Olympics victory by the United States hockey team at Lake Placid in 1980. As these players bonded, they learned that they weren’t playing for their schools but, rather, were representing their country. The Founding Fathers may have created a slogan that’s hard to top: We the People.

Words of wisdom for all generations

o you ever wish you had asked for advice about life from older members of the family or friends who have now passed away? I certainly do. Like an inheritance, advice that has withstood the test of time can make the life of the beneficiary easier. Hence the clever idea, by an assisted living community on Long Island, of producing a distributable calendar filled with some of the wisdom of its residents was immediately interBy Leah S. Dunaief esting to me. The Gurwin JewishFay J. Lindner Residences, located in Commack, collected the thoughts of one person or couple in the community for each month and named the project “From Generation to Generation 2017.” As the calendar states in the introduction, “The advice contained in

these pages … is priceless, and made all the more meaningful because of the life experiences that season [the residents’] words of wisdom.” The January advice comes from Gerald Burberry, who was sent to England on the Kindertransport — also known as Children’s Transport — during World War II and was the only member of his family to survive the Holocaust. Gerald focuses on the beauty in life through the lens of his camera and is an enthusiastic nature photographer. He and his wife have visited as many U.S. National Parks as they could in pursuit of his goal to “appreciate nature.” Janet Munday adorns February and urges everyone to “blaze new trails.” She was a computer engineering major at Hofstra, one of few women at the time, and also played the bass guitar in a cover band and traveled to Italy just to learn Italian. Others, like Helen and Mel Morgenstein, who are wedded 73 years, offer this advice to married couples: “Respect each other.” Mel adds, “Respect your differences, and have your own interests. It makes for a much

better life together.” Mary Falcone says, “Cherish family.” She has four daughters, 12 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren, “They’re wonderful,” she declares and she sees them regularly. “Their heart is my heart.” Florence Levenbaum, who is 91, loves to dance. She urges, “Keep moving and smile.” For her, movement and good humor are the keys to good health. She posed for her photo in the calendar carrying a Wilson wooden tennis racket over her shoulder. Further advice includes “Pursue your passions” from Stewart Greene, a devoted lifetime sailor; “Keep learning” from Sandra Peltz, a former registrar at Hofstra who feels she learns from each new person she meets; and “Be independent” from Ruth Kaufman, who doesn’t worry about what others might think and say. “Use common sense!” urges Edwin Zola, who feels that people could find a way to end war and suffering if they would treat others as they would like to be treated, adding, “This just makes sense.” And Sidney Klein speaks proudly about serving one’s country, as he did during WWII.

to those younger than you? I asked that question of some of the newspaper staff, and here is what they offered. “Live in the moment,” said one. “And enjoy the moment.” Another counseled, “Don’t put it off,” whether a task, a career move or a relationship. “Anticipate life’s many stages,” suggested another. “Be yourself, don’t be afraid to be who you really are rather than trying to please others,” is one piece of advice one mother had just shared with her daughter. Another mother offered, “Enjoy your childhood. You are only a child once.” And how about this one for your children? “We were young once too!” Some others included, “Work hard, play hard and include balance in your life,” “Be kind,” “Stick together with family,” “Hang around with happy people,” and this timely bit for today’s world, “Be entrepreneurial.” You might ask what words I would offer the next generations. My advice: “Have courage.” Have the courage to be the person you want to be, to do the things you most wish to do, to go to the places you yearn to see, and to defend those who cannot defend themselves.
