To the editor: Like columnist Dylan Hernandez (“Dodgers’ celebration of Jackie Robinson Day rings hollow in wake of White House visit,” April 15), I used to be saddened that the Dodgers selected to go to the White Home. I perceive that it could have taken some braveness to do in any other case, however that also doesn’t make it proper. I imagine I’ve a manner they will make amends that’s diplomatic sufficient to keep away from angering the White Home. Make an announcement at each sport: “Girls and gents, there may be an American resident being wrongly imprisoned in El Salvador and, so far, efforts to acquire his launch have failed. We want to ask you to rise for a second of silent prayer that our president, Donald Trump, could also be profitable in his efforts to convey Kilmar Abrego Garcia house.”

To the editor: Bravo to Hernandez for mentioning the hypocrisy of the Dodgers celebrating Jackie Robinson Day after yukking it up with a president who’s anti-DEI and peddles, as Hernandez wrote, “informal racism.” Furthermore, the president is a convicted felon and was discovered answerable for sexual abuse in a civil case. Any sports activities crew — or individual for that matter — who consorts with him tacitly condones this habits. They dignify a person with out dignity. They normalize an irregular president. I doubt Robinson would have carried out that.

To the editor: To keep away from repeating the hypocrisy of celebrating Jackie Robinson Day after visiting Trump, the Dodgers ought to cancel their upcoming Regulation Enforcement Night time. How can the Dodgers honor courageous law enforcement officials after they normalized somebody who pardoned a number of felons chargeable for attacking and injuring courageous law enforcement officials?
