The confidence artists doing business as Vermont’s Democratic majority legislature have crafted a bill it thinks will make Big Oil pay for environmental damage which it claims is the result of years of detrimental emissions.

Night Cap: Woodpeckers, Pine Cones, and Morning ‘Duty’
Living in rural New Hampshire, even where the flatlanders roam, is very different from most urban settings. Most of America is like that, truly, so I’m not speaking to a fringe audience. But this is a group who, if not familiar with city living, has (hopefully) forgotten how different it is. For example, I live on a paltry 2.4 acres, give or take.
Oregon Re-Criminalizes Hard Drugs After Four Years of Decrim Disaster
If you need an example of bad drug policy vs. human nature, then Oregon is your gal. She decriminalized hard drugs in 2020 and was rewarded with a 200% spike in overdose deaths. People were not more likely to seek treatment, but they were more likely to become unproductive criminals if they didn’t kill themselves.
50,000 Eversource Customers Without Power This Morning in NH (34K NHEC, 8,400 Unitil)
Welcome to the weather in New England, where it can be 60 degrees one day and snow-driven power outages the next. We lost power from 2 to 4 a.m. last night but woke up to warmth and light, only to lose it again at 6:30.
The American College of Pediatricians Says ‘Gender-Affirming Therapy’ is Not Beneficial to Youth
The headline will annoy the gender cult, but it is indicative of a transformation that has begun to crack the woke carapace of medical and chemical gender treatments for children. Corporate medicine is all in on this profit silo and the narratives supporting it, but it’s all a lie, and we’re just hurting children.
RFK Jr.’s “Appeal” Shifts as VP Shanahan Makes It Impossible for Anyone on the Right to Vote for Him
Last year, we shared some content suggesting that RFK Jr. could make a good VP choice for Trump. The idea was trashed (for good reason). Bobby is great on health freedom but too liberal on everything else. After choosing Nicole Shanahan for his VP, anyone on the right willing to look the other way can’t even do that anymore.
How About a Prescription from Your Doctor … To Buy Lettuce?
The internet loves stories about globalist plots to use everything and anything to get mRNA anything into the general population. There are stories about jabbed livestock and even vegetables, but the State of Tennessee is pushing back.
State Rep Shows Up Late and Masked for Expert Testimony on Why Masks Don’t Work
Industrial Hygienist Stephen Petty has decades of experience protecting people from hazards, so when he tells you masks can’t stop a virus, that’s an expert scientific fact. And still, some do not believe.
88.7%* Said the NH House Should NOT Be a Paid “Professional” Legislature
Late last week, I was checking on X (still pronounced ‘Twitter’), and one of the Grok Account followers shared an update from someone who claimed that 87% of those polled thought New Hampshire should have a paid professional legislature. What would be the result if ‘Grok ran that poll?
Real Quick: Newsletter Changes, Your Podcasts on ‘Grok, and Other Updates
As a heads-up, we are going back to one newsletter per day instead of breaking it up into two installments. The Daily Grok will publish in the afternoon – through the evening like it used to do.
The Bidenistas are Bailing on Bidenomics – Not the Polices, Just the Word
You don’t hear the words build back better much anymore unless it’s from someone closer to the small government end of the spectrum making fun of Democrats who live at the other end. We’ve built debt and gone backward, and only the size of government is bigger (which they think is better).
Sen. Shaheen Credits Making Everything Cost More with Saving Granite Staters Money
In a recent email newsletter update, Jeanne Shaheen, the Federal Debt Queen, credited herself with “Working to Save Granite Staters Money on Energy Costs.” Don’t be surprised when I tell you that hers is the fiscal equivalent of tossing another cinderblock to someone who is drowning.
Fasting on Fasting or Something.
The rising interest in modern-day fasting always struck me as a multi-agency international psyop meant to get people used to the idea of there not being enough food to go around—nothing on the store shelves. No worries. Fasting is good for you.
White House Bans “Religious-Themed Art” Submissions to Religious Holiday Art Contest
Despite the best efforts of weirdos and neer-do-wells, this year’s White House Easter Egg Roll will use eggs. Trying to get Jill Biden to use potatoes instead of eggs has failed, but the nutjobs did manage a victory nonetheless. “Religious-themed designs banned from White House Easter egg art contest.”
California: Jake From State Farm Might Not be Your “Good” Neighbor For Much Longer …
The first Jake from State Farm commercial was a good ad because it was funny. A husband is confronted by his untrusting wife, who doesn’t believe he’d be on the phone talking to their insurance agent that late at night. “What are you wearing, Jake from State Farm?” she asks.
Twitter Pop Up Poll – Should the NH House be a Paid “Professional” Legislature? Yes or No?
Upon request, we are publishing a quick pop-up poll on Twitter that will run for the next day or so (don’t wait to vote). The question is, ‘Should the NH House be a paid “professional” legislature? Yes or No?’
Jill Biden Just Equated the Author of Gender Queer With Nazis
Jill Biden was singing to the choir the other evening when she spoke at the Human Rights Campaign Dinner, and I have to wonder if everyone there agreed with her claim that parents concerned about age-inappropriate material in school libraries are fascist.
NH House Republican Attendance for the Week of 3-28-2024
Another week, another opportunity to get emails from disgruntled Reps who missed one vote. That seems to be the cycle. The folks who’ve been diligent get miffed, while the gross offenders could care less. That’s fine; this is, after all, to alert the people that a handful consistently refuse to represent.
Granite Stater’s (Any Stater’s Actually) Can See What Democrats “Mean” by Looking At Vermont
For years, Democrats in New Hampshire have pretended to be the Jimmy McMillin of property taxes. Like the rent, they are too damn high. If elected, they promise to do something about it. Lower them. Not taxes; those will go up; you just won’t see them.
Pasty White VanOstern Running to Replace Pasty White Ann Kuster – Did the NH Dems Learn Nothing?
Local ABC affiliate WMUR reports that pasty white New Hampshire Democrat Colin Van Ostern is stepping up to run for Congress after Ann Kuster announced her retirement. Van Ostern has been Kuster’s campaign manager, a former Executive Councilor, and one of Chris Sununu’s Dem challengers (he lost).
