Councilor Wheeler:
I am emailing you to go on record that I want you to reject the judge appointment of Belknap County Attorney Andrew Livernois. It is clearly another political favor of the Damn Emperor, just like many others, the most recent one being DJ Bettencourt.
I want to get the word out in the public square right now, fresh off the heels of that horrible HB 1002 House roll call, because time has a habit of making people forget things, and candidacy filing time is not for another four months.
I’ve decided to put into words a “cyber journal entry,” for lack of better phrasing. This comes less than 24 hours after holding a Trump sign outside a school in the suburbs. I will first mention my gratitude in having the freedom of speech that one has when not being a candidate or paid spokesperson for a candidate.
So I’ve been told that nut job gun hater Rep. Meuse was the one who assaulted Rep. Jonah Wheeler for his departure from the “enemy camp plantation” by voting for a ban on gender reassignment for minors. I’m hoping security camera footage is easily available to see for myself.
Greetings and happy new year! A suggested New Year’s resolution that doesn’t involve diet and exercise is in the title above, with emphasis on the word “town.” I say that for two reasons. One of them is that local elections are arguably just as important as their state and federal counterparts.

At the time of the mayoral primary, I was approached by an older gentleman outside Charlotte School while I was holding a Mike Soucy sign. He approached to encourage me to stand near “the runway” because he wanted maximum visibility for the sign.
While not everyone reading this lives in Nashua, and not every local votes in Ward 2 (which is at Charlotte Ave School, to those who don’t know where they vote), it’s well past time for Alderman Dowd to retire. He is just one vote out of a body of 15, but a serial “problem one” … Read more
With the Sanborn scandal breaking the news just hours ago, it unsurprisingly spawned much discussion online. I thought about my House Committee assignments article at the beginning of the year. I’m unsure if there’s enough material aside from the usual WMUR and NH Journal offerings in an ordinary internet search on the Sanborns. I took … Read more
“The decision to charge an elected constitutional officer is not one that is made lightly,” said Formella into the WMUR mic.
