New Boston is still in the process of “cleaning up” the Winslow property on River Rd. “Cleaning out” is more like it.

Here is a picture of the log truck the Town hired with a handshake agreement – no certificate of insurance required for this scheme. Although Town Policy requires it and others have to comply, not with this deal. You see, no contract – no time limit.

If you look closely you can see the Town’s contractor is hauling away Mr. Winslow’s galvanized boat trailer – license plate still attached. Nothing heavy was dropped on top of the boat trailer except some of Mr. Winslow’s tools.

Why would the Town of New Boston try and pull this off?

Some people must have better things to do with their time than being lectured to by the Social Justice Overseers in California,

[College Fix] When the UCLA Intergroup Relations Program recently hosted an event to allow the campus community to discuss “toxic masculinity,” 10 students showed up.

The discussion, held Tuesday, was billed as a way to allow students a chance to discuss “the silence surrounding toxic masculinity, emotional repression, locker room talk, and broader social norms,” according to organizers.

Meanwhile, in New Hampshire,

There isn’t much room in today’s Democrat Party for independent thought or moderate positions. Whether it’s about the right of an unborn fetus to live vs. the right of a woman to choose, the inherent rights of American citizens vs. the perceived rights of illegal aliens, or religious freedom and traditional values vs. another new category of people seeking special protection, Democrats are of one mind. They all stand together on the far left, a place where dissent is never tolerated.

In the Virginia Tech massacre, one of the professors who was killed trying to protect his students while holding a door closed was a veteran of the Israel Defense Forces.  Had he been armed, is there any doubt that he could have ended the massacre right then and there?

Suddenly, we are supposed to be concerned about Russian computer trolls and Russian dirty tricksters exhibiting a fake Hillary in a fake cage dressed like a prisoner, which are actions we are supposed to believe swayed an entire election, let alone a single vote.

Some 13 comrades with the million-dollar skills to write articles about candidates and post them on a computer site are the best our Special Trump Prosecutor could come up with in a year’s worth of investigation by Harvard Law grads?

Wouldn’t it normally be a crime to think Americans were this stupid? There must be a law somewhere a with which a grand jury could indict Mr. Mueller.

Now the New Hampshire connection.

I’m getting a few folks emailing and calling about this, remember when the Windham School Board decided that it just HAD to have a Transgender bathroom policy in place (even, as I am told, that they don’t have any Transgender students in the district)?  Go ahead and reconcile those two things and I have a hypothesis: it’s the next item “of value” in the never-ending Educational-Industrial Complex.

Is anyone surprised that a California Democrat Wants To Tax Energy Consumption from Bitcoin Mining?

Bitcoin transactions require an enormous amount of energy. Dutch bank ING estimates that a single transaction consumes enough electricity to power a home for weeks. The expensive and energy-consuming verification process of transactions, otherwise known as mining, is meant to deter crime and fraud. Because Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rose to prominence in 2017, research claims the total energy consumption from last year was more than the annual usage of 159 countries.

If ever there was a case of the so-called “school shooter” phenomenon being about guns – this Florida case isn’t it.

I see the anti-Second Amendment industry has mobilized its minions about as fast as a Russian can put together an anti-Hillary for President parade float, but this incident is not about how militaristic a semi-auto rifle looks. It is way more than that.

Guns and bullets were involved in Florida’s government mega-school shooting all right, but the boy involved also rang every alarm bell professionals and amateurs are supposed to notice – before something like this happens.

A long post from Matt Kibbe about the TEA Party’s demise – the milestone WAS this latest “CRomnibus” act that kept the Feds open (again, no big deal to me if it had shut down) and also spent FAR more than we can afford.  GraniteGrok was one of the co-founders of the NH TEA Party Coalition – a group of us that had had it with politicians up and down the chain. We all agreed that if we weren’t willing to do something ourselves, no one did.  We did – and we had an impact. Using the Constitution as our Measure of Quality, we held their feet to the fire and it worked. At least for a while.

Again, with the Republicans leading the charge on spending and widening the deficit, what IS the difference between the Dems and the Republicans???   Sigh…

The Tea Party Is Officially Dead. It Was Killed by Partisan Politics.
I helped make the grassroots activist movement a reality. But now the party’s over.

The grassroots movement that fought so hard for fiscal sanity in government over the past decade is no more. It was killed off by the very same Washington establishment it sought to overthrow. Its death leaves proponents of limited government with some big questions: What went wrong? And what do we do now?
