SENTINEL DISCUSSES TAX, POLITICS AND WAR TIMELINE

The Grafton Sentinel comments on a 40 percent direct tax rise and a coal oil and gas revenue deal, criticizing the governor and Harrison county leaders for backroom bargaining. It cites political betrayals, the prospect of future offices as rewards, and urges readers to weigh the state’s fiscal burden against resource extraction. The piece also covers Italy’s war stance and the broader European tensions shaping policy debates at home.
