The
Denver Post published a letter to the editor suggesting President Donald Trump should be executed for treason.
The letter criticized the president and Sen. Cory Gardner (R., Colo.) following Trump's summit with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Finland, and
said Soviet spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who passed atomic bomb secrets to Moscow, were executed for "far less."
The letter, written by Suzanne Gagnon of Lakewood, was in response to the paper's editorial last week, which gave tepid praise of Gardner. The
editorial argued the Republican senator "deserves credit" for taking a tough stance against Russia and sponsoring legislation to add Russia to the state sponsor of terror list.
"Sen. Cory Gardner is insipid, at best," Gagnon wrote in her
letter to the editor published Saturday. "His words are always carefully chosen and, if challenged, their intent open to 'spinning' to his own advantage. No surprise here he didn't call President Donald Trump out by name.
"The legislation he has proposed is weak, not tough; it's simply more wordsmithing," she said. "Gardner is certainly not the only politician I take issue with, but I don't see the
Denver Post championing anyone else like you champion Gardner."
Comment: Update July 26 - Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo reported that it is 'highly probable' the cardiologist was deliberately targeted when he was shot, however police are still working to establish a motive for the crime. The suspect is said to be a male of white or Hispanic origin and around 30 years old. He was wearing a baseball cap, gray jacket and khaki shorts, and rode a light-colored mountain bike.
