Less than a month ago, Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey declared a state of emergency. The problem? Progressive policy met reality on her doorstep: more illegal aliens than she knows what to do with, so they’ve been stuffing them into local shelters, hotels, and motels.
When I first moved to New Hampshire 33 years ago – yes, I predate the Free Staters, the “joke” went like this. The Granite State didn’t have many folks on unemployment or welfare because they bussed them to Massachusetts, where the benefits were better.
This week, the House met to vote on all remaining Senate bills. Since the Senate has been working away, quite a few bills some members strongly supported have been killed or drastically amended, one way or another.
If you need a poster child for the incompetence of a bloated government, Massachusetts would have to be at the top of any list of candidates. Yes, Hawaii and California are bad, but they lack the tenure of the Bay State. Once the cradle of liberty, it has long since devolved into an aged ineptitude … Read more
This might be a great Town Hall forum question for Democratic candidates. “Is there any problem you can’t fix with a new or higher tax?” I want a list, please, but I sense it would look like that redacted FDA document—a bunch of blank pages. While true, Dems do believe this; they don’t want to … Read more
This week, the House met to consider all bills that didn’t go to a second committee. Since this was a deadline, many bills we wanted to kill would be tabled instead since the motion to table is not debatable. Anything on the table after this week would need a 2/3 vote to do anything, so … Read more
The Democrats have created for themselves a problem. The titular head of their party, Joe Biden – tit-head for short – left the door open, and that is beginning to get a cold reception from even the most die-hard rank-and-file lefties. It is one thing to pretend to be for sanctuary, another to have to … Read more
I haven’t read the law, so I can’t say for sure, but I’d bet money that there is no right to shelter in the event of criminal activity or fraud. Illegals, regardless of how they came to you, are not legal, even when you call them migrants.
Every year State Representative Kirk White (D/P-Windsor-Addison) hosts the Firefly Arts Collective on his property in Bethel, VT. The festival is described as a New England version of Burning Man. Its website says, “This event operates under the 10 Principles of Burning Man: not to dictate of how people should be and act, but as a reflection … Read more
OSHA has “officially filed its vaccine mandate rules for the COVID19 Jab. Affected employers have until Jan 4, 2022, to comply. In response, twenty-five states have filed or joined lawsuits in four different circuit courts to stop the mandate.
Our rulers can’t make us get The Jab™ (yet), which is a problem for them. Bragging rights, pissing contest, a mental-health disturbance in the force. Whatever the motivation, they need people poked, and when politicians want something, they have two choices. Threats or bribes.
Massachusetts, once the cradle of liberty, is now a bureaucrat’s Disneyland. They would rather tax and regulate the tea than dump it in the harbor these days. So the Department of Health (and inhuman services)had no problem declaring that ye shall be vaccinated, or else!
Whatever our thoughts may be about Chris Sununu regarding Emergency orders (not good, if you didn’t notice), he got this one right. New Hampshire, along with Maine, has opted not to sign on to the Transportation Climate Initiative memorandum of understanding.
Individual rights are to Popular Sovereignty, as State’s rights are to Federalism; integral and unalienable! Our Federal form of government, a dual sovereignty style of governance, balances States’ rights and National authority in an institutional model that reflects the primordial political relationship between the minority (i.e. individual rights) and the majority (i.e. popular sovereignty).
Maskachusetts Governor Charlie Baker’s Labor day message to the peasants was, don’t gather in large groups. If you plan to celebrate the end of the Summer of COVID, it best be in small, distant, gatherings, outdoors, with masks, and if you get busted, they’ll fine you. Happy Frikkin Labor Day!
That would be from the US Constitution, Article I, Sec 10 (paragraph 3) that he may be ignoring. No state shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation; grant letters of marque and reprisal; coin money; emit bills of credit; make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts; pass any … Read more
Massachusetts banned all vaping products last month in a knee-jerk response to a small number of health issues and fatalities related to vaping. Small business owners caught off guard, as well as vape companies, challenged the ban in court.
In desperate need of housing, a father and his two boys were placed in a facility by the state of Massachusetts. They’d recently escaped an abusive relationship and were, until then homeless. Thanks to the benevolent bureaucracy, their troubles were just beginning.
As promised in Monday Memes, I have an overflow. Let the mayhem, mockery, and ridicule continue! *** Warning, definitely off-color ones, in case tender eyes are about *** >>>>>=====<<<<< NOTICE! Due to meme size / storage issues I am working with Steve to decrease things and rein in the size of these posts. Changes following … Read more
America’s Sanctuary City mayors got off easy for years, pontificating about human rights and the special place immigrants have in our history. But what amounted to virtue signaling over handfuls of “refugees,’ was reduced to a nightmarish reality when exercised as intended. Biden-Harris opened the door, and the illegals took those mayors at their word. … Read more
