Just weeks after the Iberian Peninsula went dark thanks to an overreliance on unreliable energy, New Orleans had 100,000 customers left in the dark. The power outage came with a three-minute warning as providers were forced to kill the juice to avoid imminent widespread and longer blackouts. Grid instability issues threatened to produce a much … Read more
The sky is blue, water is wet, and each year, about this time, the ‘ Grok reviews NOAA’s annual hurricane predictions. It’s not that we’re overly interested in hurricanes, though you’d be hard pressed to prove otherwise. There are over 100 articles in recent years on the subject, but for a good reason. The science. … Read more
For a bunch of Marxists with white guilt, the New Hampshire Democrat party still can’t seem to get out of its own way. They lost their First Nation primary in 2024 because the local diversity scolds didn’t have any. That was according to the DNC “birthing person” (mother) ship, which claims to have stripped them … Read more
The infamous Democrat scold, Jeanne Dietsch, has been struggling to find political relevance for years. Since being booted from her very short stint in the NH State Senate, she has launched project after project, unable to accumulate meaningful traction because – let’s be honest – they are little different from the rest of the Left’s … Read more
The former First Lady of the United States (FFLOTUS) was known for being prickly about how people referred to the wife of the then recently “elected,” though (at the time) still contested, future President Joe Biden. It’s “Dr.” Jill, they said, which for someone with even a legitimate Ed.D from a respectable univiersity is something … Read more
Earlier in the week, New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte signed HB551, which repealed the requirement for an additional local retail license to lawfully sell firearms in the Granite State. Firearms dealers are already required to have a federal firearms license (FFL), which the previous Administration was systematically turning into a trap. Numerous FFLs I know … Read more
Kelli Stavast doesn’t get enough credit. She’s the (former?) NBC Pit Reporter at the Talladega Motor Speedway who, when interviewing Brandon Brown, conveniently interpreted the chant F*ck Joe Biden (during a live interview) as Let’s Go Brandon. The rest is history. George Floyd, on the other hand, got far more credit than was his due. … Read more
Several stories broke in the past few days about the Biden Administration’s mishandling of the pandemic. Try as I might, I couldn’t get them both into the title. The Democrat Administration was hiding dangerous COVID-19 vaccine side effects from the public while labeling people concerned about harmful side effects as dangerous, violent extremists. First. “The … Read more
New York’s massive Empire Wind project has received the green light from the White House in exchange for the approval of two natural gas pipelines that would have to travel through New York State. When the news first broke that President Trump’s White House had agreed to let the offshore wind development proceed, I was … Read more
As reported back in March, Vermont is pretending to be concerned about arbitrary man-made emissions reduction targets. Two months ago, experts predicted the state would miss by as much as 12%. All the usual suspects were pearl-clutching and hand-wringing, despite decisions about the things measured being as arbitrary and man-made as the target. What counts … Read more
On May 24th, 2006, the so-called climate documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ exposed Americans to sore loser Al Gore’s post-public-office wealth accumulation strategy: peddle fear and cherry-pick data into the perception of expertise, scaremonger bad science to sell people on ideas he would invest in. Al did his speaking tours, got lots of earned media for … Read more
Sadly, for the propagandist left, Joe cannot escape his prostate cancer diagnosis by declaring he’s a woman. Raid Dr. Jill’s closet and wear all the dresses and make-up you like. You can even get a ‘takemydickfrome’ but Mr. Prostate will forever plague you. Literally, but that’s not all you can’t escape. The news of Demntia … Read more
Both chambers of the New Hampshire legislature have passed HB148, “permitting classification of individuals based on biological sex under certain circumstances.” The bill allows public and private entities to restrict access to certain spaces based on biological sex. Restaurants, gyms and whoever are free to segregate by sex-parts without fear of legal retribution by men … Read more
You’ll have by now learned that the FDA no longer recommends boosters for the Chinese Virus to anyone under 64 or younger unless they fit an immunocompromised profile. Or that before it can begin to consider that injection for anyone else, manufacturers will have to prove a clinical benefit. You can’t just say it’s safe … Read more
No one complains as much if their vehicle insurance rates are higher because they bought a car thieves love more than others. You can complain if you didn’t know that, but then that’s no one else’s job but yours. Before you buy a car, it makes sense to do some research. Vehicles with higher rates … Read more
I’m not sure how many men do the majority of the grocery shopping, but in my house, it is me. Even before my office left me and I started working from home, my office job made it convenient to stop at any number of destinations to pick up groceries or household items. I’d be a … Read more
The recent matter of white South African refugees waving American flags upon their arrival in the United States has more triggers than a gun store. Lefties are losing what passes for their hive mind. And I can’t help but wonder if Mr. Trump and his crew did not orchestrate this process to allow Dems to … Read more
Don’t expect them to admit that you were right. About what? Raising the minimum wage for tipped employees would result in lost hours, fewer jobs, higher prices, and restaurant closings. If you are reading this, assuming you are not some progressive troll, you knew that. The real minimum wage is zero, which is where more … Read more
If you missed last night’s Granite State Live, there have been some changes, but one thing remains the same. Keith Hanson continues to deliver epic takedowns and rants that melt the internet. Yesterday evening, Julian was talking about a long-term problem: getting “our side” to get off their ass and show up. I know, we … Read more
You’d be right to wonder why, when you’ve finally got a majority in both chambers and the Chief Executive is one of yours, you’d waste your time on a bunt when you could swing for the fences. Ironically, we’ve got that in New Hampshire and DC, but Republicans don’t seem to know what to do … Read more
