Not ONCE, since the votes were taken have I seen anything even closely relating to what Kevin Landrigan of the Union Leader (and certainly nothing like what we’ve been writing about) in naming names?

The Skip & Tom Weight Challenge – Week 11
Oopsies! Both of us lost track of time last week and didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted Week 10 until time was closer to Week 11 than to Week 9. So, we both agreed to “take a bye” (sorta like the Celtics taking one even as they’re supposed to be actually playing on the court). … Read more
NH Legislative Ethics Complaint Filed – NH State Rep Harry Bean
In our Constitutional Republic, we elect certain people to represent us when it comes to the management and oversight of Government. As such, we expect that they will use a blend of what our wishes may be (the “represent” part) as well as our judgment as to who they are, their sensibilities, their ideas, their honesty, and their values when we elect them (the “candidate” part).
Screw The Poor: Proof that Democrats Are The Party of The Rich
For decades, the Democrats called themselves the “Party for the Poor,” the “Party of the common folks,” and the “Party of the Working People.” The last was meant to be the blue-collar workers in the fields, mines, and factories. Those who toiled but not in the middle to C-level offices.
Suing over Pronouns, Homework is Racist, Armed Guards in All TN Schools, and More! – Stack of Stuff #47
It never ends, does it? The Left never stops, never gives up. We who simply just want to be left alone and want Government to do what we pay it to do and nothing more and nothing less have to learn that lesson. “You WILL be made to care” (Erick Erickson) you can add “If … Read more
Data Point – NOAA’s 2023 Summer Weather Projections
The entire National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration report can be seen here. It looks like El Nino is also about to start its cycle (the flip side being La Nina) and last through the rest of the year. For the Northeast, it looks like we’re going to have a high chance of having above … Read more
Why Do We Let People Boss Us Around Who Can’t Do The Little Things Right?
In the private sector, you either succeed, or you get fired. A company either makes the right decisions according to its consumers, or they abandon (er, fire) you, and you go out of business.
Bottom Headline of the Day: When The New Chicago Mayor is Woker and Broker than Outgoing Lightfoot
True to form for a Socialist Progressive, new Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has vowed (during his swearing-in ceremony, no less) to make the financial lives of “The Rich” and Big Biz miserable since Chicago is in desperate straights in the Treasury area.
Our National Self-Sorting is Having a Serious Financial Impact on Blue States
It’s clear from both U-Haul rentals and IRS data that high-income folks, having their selfish self-interest tickled by Blue State taxes, are moving to low-tax (that would be Republican) states – and taking their money with them—big Time.
2A Happy Ending: Don’t Mess With My Son OR My Dog!
Stupid people continue to play stupid games and in this case, win stupid endings. I will say that the Dad must have been pretty accurate as he defended both (and his Mom elsewhere in the house):
“This Is the Chart That Ought To Terrify Democrats” – Real Average Weekly Earnings 2007-2023
Even as Joe Biden proclaims, a la 1984 and Animal House, “Keep calm! All is well!” most of us need only look at the difference between what goes into the grocery bag and what comes out of our wallets and know that things are not well.
So I Was Tinkering Around with Microsoft’s New A.I., Bard, Sunday Night
I would have thought, given my background, that I would have taken much more interest in AI tech – which has sprung out onto the scene with ChatGPT, Bard, PaLM2, and updated Bing (Forbes has a lot of others listed here). Thus far, however, it has been a yawning “meh?”
I Was Only 10 Years Ahead of Time On This: Interest Payment on Nation Debt Now > Defense Spending
I’ve said that unless the Federal Govt finally got its act together and kept spending down to the level we could afford, this was going to happen:
So SAU7 Colebrook School District Believes It Can Ignore NH’s Right To Know Law?
UPDATE before publishing: Superintendent Taylor responded shortly after I emailed her this:
“What Is The Transgender Status of My Legal Son?” Part 4
Don’t attempt to gaslight me by telling me I’m something when it was you folks that have been doing it for almost 3 years. I’ve had my “Gaslight shot” and I’m immune to it. More on that in a moment. However, to set the stage for that…
Speaking of “Misgendering”: Suing Over Policy That Punishes Students
Don’t you just love it when the Left makes up new words for things that really don’t exist just so that they can both shame and then punish us all when we don’t know what it is? And then, once you do know what it means, you get bashed for fighting back over what is someone’s figment of their imagination.
Who Knew: Gay Professor Passing Out Chocolate To College Students is a Major Aggression?
First off, the ‘Grok gets nothing for this “advertisement kinda sideways,” but I am going to be ordering some because I think this is a clever tactic in the Culture War that has been thrust upon us.
We Should Be Surprised That Neighboring Vermont Has Gone As Full Democrat as CA? Gun Permits, Registration, & Insurance on Tap?
I read True North North Reports, a site that concentrates on VT politics, on a regular basis (Steve’s posts on the ‘Grok get a fairly regular posting there in return!). To be truthful, seeing how far under the Democrat sway that VT has gone the last few years, now to the point of having veto-proof … Read more
So NH State Rep Mike Bordes (RINO-Belmont) Is Looking to Gut The NH Senate’s Parental Rights Bill With These Amendments
Effectively, NH State Rep Mike Bordes is SCREAMING: PARENTS – Your children belong to Government!! SCREW YOU, PARENTS! And the vote is this Thursday (according to the House Republican Leadership, from what I’ve been told). Here’s the floor amendment that will be put forward by him, via a different State Rep, for the vote on … Read more
Bernie Sanders – As If We Didn’t Already Know This: After $999 Million, Govt Should Just Take The Rest
100% of it. You earn it and watch Bernie’s IRS swoop in and take every last cent. He proves our point that the answer to the question of “Who’s money is it FIRST?” is that it isn’t the person that earned it. A reminder: I used to ask Bruce Currie, a past frequent commenter until … Read more
