To the editor: <\/p>\n
It seems like The Breeze publishes a\u00a0letter\u00a0by John Benedict nearly every week. Like many others, the letter writer rails against the \u201cSocialistic Democrats\u201d or the \u201csocialistic agenda\u201d of the news media. <\/p>\n
In contrast, the writer gushes over Trump, who \u201cleads America into a growing prosperous country\u201d (Dec. 12, 2025). <\/p>\n
That statement contradicts just about every financial metric, except Increased Wealth of Billionaires, including Trump, whose wealth grew by $3.5 billion in 2025. That\u2019s a lot of Bibles and hats.<\/p>\n
The Jan. 9 half-page\u00a0letter goes into great detail about the COVID fraud in the \u201cvery blue state\u201d of Minnesota. The letter fails to mention the \u201cvery red state\u201d fraud in Texas and \u2014 wait for it \u2014 Florida, both among the fraud leaders.<\/p>\n
The letter suggests Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar\u2019s personal wealth of $30 million was \u201cfound\u201d in the fraudulent Somali billions. Aside from slander worthy of FOX \u201cnews,\u201d the letter writer does not seem to know how to fact check. (But Breeze staff does.) Ilhan Omar\u2019s personal assets are about $15,000. The millions are\u00a0her spouse\u2019s investment assets.<\/p>\n
Do better Breeze.<\/p>\n
