Following on my earlier post, Dems-n-Energy, I bring you another fake concern of the left that could be addressed, at least in part and almost immediately, if the Dems tried this one easy thing. In Dems-n-energy, it was the price of energy. Here, we’re talking education costs, which are the single greatest driver of high … Read more
Wherever you happen to be sitting as you read this, energy prices probably matter. In the United States or out, yes – we have readers in nearly every country on the planet, how much it costs to heat, cool, cook, and live in the 21st century turns on the cost of the energy necessary to … Read more
One of the underappreciated nuances of the anti-racism movement (the pro-white racism is blatant, not nuanced) is how everything that movements like BLM stand on assumes blacks are criminals. Calm down. I understand that the point they are trying to sell is that blacks get framed, and if there were fewer cops, they’d be less … Read more
Chasity Bono used to drop by the variety show because she was a super cute little girl, and pets and small children (especially if they are not yours and you can walk away from them or give them back) are a big draw (marketing-wise). Chastity had an addadicktomy and became Chaz Bono, not so cute, … Read more

The foundation of the climate scam is computer modeling. I know it started with man-made warming and Al Gore sharing the now-infamous hockey stick, crafted using very selective tree-ring data and a scientific method the author refuses to make public fifty years later, despite the hockey stick never coming to pass. Computer modeling hopped on … Read more
Is it possible that we’ve passed the peak of Medicaid fraud? Like war-weariness, even the people who were all in from the start are beginning to tire of the exercise. Support and interest wane, as civilian leadership is increasingly pelted with correspondence about when this will be over. In the case of fraud, people working … Read more
Whether you like them or not, the hurricane season posts are a critical balance to the fearmongering agenda of the Climate Cult. More and stronger storms. That’s why we (or at least I) do these. Media bias is strong when the weather presents the opportunity, so we work to provide balance, but no one seems … Read more
Anyone with the signatures can vie to replace Platner. That’s what the Maine Democrat State Party is saying. “Candidates now have the ability to submit their declaration of intent and begin engaging Maine Democrats in earnest by earning their support and collecting signatures.” Commie Ro Khanna, whom I wrote about Saturday, wants Troy Jackson, whom … Read more

Not to kick the same donkey too many times, but the measure of a moderate Democrat, real or imagined, is not if they can lay claim to the title. It is whether it means anything once they are a member of the caucus. Jonah Wheeler is a mostly reliable Democrat vote in the New Hampshire … Read more
The moment “they” announced COVID loans, it felt like another laundromat for fraud. And it was. Locally, we’ve had one high-profile case involving Andy Sanborn. Andy was just a Concord business owner in 2009/2010 when the Tea Party rose from nothing. He was showing up at the hearing, talking about the long list of new … Read more
Every Friday, I get an email from the Governor’s office listing all the bills she has signed or vetoed. This week, one bill, HB1268, makes New Hampshire the freest state in America for homeschooling. It frees parents from a systemic contradiction. The education system monopoly that can’t teach kids to read or do math is … Read more
Ro Khanna is another communist “rich kid” (even though he’s not a kid), a Democratic Party Marxist worth over 230 million. The fallout from ‘The Revolution’ he desires won’t hurt him or his family. They are financially inoculated as long as they pull for team blue. Che shirts, hammer and sickle. That makes him an … Read more
While surfing the news-o-sphere for something to amuse my mind, I stumbled upon what you’d expect to find. An article with the headline “Canada and Australia Have Much Higher Violent Crime Rates Than the US.” By expect, I mean, the US gets a bad rap for its murder rates, especially from Democrats who run the … Read more
You may have heard the Men from Maine parody on WROR or seen some YouTube shorts. Self-deprecation can be hilarious, and white men are allowed, but Maine Democrats could probably do their own version. Democrat men from Maine. We’ve got the repeated accusations of poor behavior by Graham Platner, the systemic effort to cover it … Read more
The pipeline for stories, tips, leads, and the rest of it is rarely dry, but most of them never find their way into the content you get to see. Limited “parking spaces,” for one thing, and I have to feel the spark. My creative process is probably not unique or unusual, but if I look … Read more

Today, on the Morning Update, Democrats continue to struggle with the proper handling of Classified documents. From Hillary to Joe Biden, to Jack Smith, whose office mishandled them while trying to prosecute Trump for doing that. 00:00 Introduction and Overview of the Indictment02:11 Document mishandling Handling03:59 Mishandling Classified Information Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel … Read more
More great news out of Florida, and it lands close to our snarky little hearts. “State agencies in Florida are barred … from hiring advertising firms that use ‘misinformation’ ratings to decide which news outlets deserve ad dollars and which don’t.” Remember NewsGuard? Outfits like NewsGuard, Ad Fontes Media, and the Global Disinformation Index built … Read more
