Jeanne Shaheen is not just an enemy of free speech she is a partisan warrior for controlling speech.

Shaheen voted to repeal the first amendment.

Jeanne Shaheen recently voted to make dissent illegal.   She, and 47 other US Senators, all Democrats, moved to empower congress to decide what, when, where, and how often, someone could engage in dissent. (aka; political speech they do not like.)

She wrote a letter to the IRS asking them to target potential political opponents…and they did!

“…according to a letter signed by New Hampshire’s own Senator Shaheen, sent to the Internal Revenue Service, several Democrat Senators have expressed a concern about whether 501(c)(4) groups are engaging in any campaign activity which (according to the Senators) is expressly prohibited by their 501 (c)(4) status.

Identity politics Democrats (sorry, that’s redundant), put down your latte’s and grab your iPhones to call your (whoever it is you call when you are supposed to be outraged) – a CNN anchor was giddy at the sound of a woman being assaulted,

“(This is) quite possibly the best minute and a half of audio we’ve ever come across.” (CNN Anchor Carol Costello) grinned during the entire setup.

The anchor went on to say “sit back and enjoy,” before playing the audio, in which (a woman) says she confronted a man who had allegedly pushed her little sister, only to have him shove her to the ground, then drag her by her feet while calling her an obscene name I cannot republish here that refers to the female anatomy.

Costello commented, still grinning, after the audio that “the long bleep” was her favorite part. She ended the segment by saying “you can thank me later.”

I don’t follow my twitter feed much at night but I happened on it this evening and the Twitterverse (NH Edition) is all over the debates.  Guinta and Shea-Porter, Shaheen and Brown, there’s even residue from Kuster and Garcia.  (Annie is mean!)

I’m not a reporter nor a campaign operative so I can happily lean back and say “Life is too short to spend it watching narcissists squabble over rhetoric.”  I recorded The Blacklist, Scorpion, and The Walking Dead–which is, well– never mind.   But other people do watch debates, and, lucky for me, they use twitter.

While there was plenty of back and forth on twitter, this one tweet caught my eye, from Drew Cline at the Union leader.

When people who politicize everything in the pursuit of power spend twenty-trillion of someone elses dollars in just a few years, well that buys a lot of something, and where Democrats are concerned it is called progress.  No, it wasn’t for science, or bridges, or good paying Middle Class jobs,* or equality, or security, prosperity, or happiness.  It didn’t buy experts, unless by experts you mean those expert at buying favors, concealing facts, spinning statistics, dodging investigations, or refusing explanation.

These things (facts, statistics, scrutiny, and investigation) are all enemies of the left and its agenda and are to be avoided at all cost.  Why else do you think New Hampshire’s Democrat delegation refuses to expose themselves to unfiltered questioning.  Not only are they part and parcel to the hypocrisy and deception, they are also too stupid even to survive questioning by those they intend to rule.

Jeanne Shaheen’s political legacy will be built on making health care more expensive and more difficult to get.  What she did to New Hampshire was bad enough.  But then Democrats sent to her Washington so she could double down on failure.  Aaaannnnd She did.

Patricia Wanderlich, a Chicago-area resident, experienced a life-threatening brain hemorrhage three years ago and has an aneurysm. Her (ObamaCare) health plan, however, comes with a hefty $6,000 deductible. Rather than pay for a much-needed yearly brain scan to monitor her condition, Wanderlich is going without. “To spend thousands of dollars just making sure it hasn’t grown?” she told The Times. “I don’t have that money.”

On Union Discipline and Employee Rights

Unfortunately, most employees do not know or clearly understand their choices and legal alternatives vis-a-vis the union. On the one hand, it is common knowledge that employees have the right to join and assist unions. Less well known, however, is employees’ right to refrain from supporting the union. This “right to refrain” includes: a) the right to refrain from joining the union in the first place;(3) b) the right to resign from union membership at any time, and thereby escape any post-resignation internal union fines or discipline;(4) and c) the right to stop paying full union dues and instead pay only a reduced “financial core fee” which excludes the union’s political and non-collective bargaining expenditures.(5) Unfortunately, many employees are misled into believing, either tacitly or through outright misrepresentations, that they are required as a condition of employment to join the union and pay full dues as a condition of employment.(6)
