The Land of Lincoln is not exactly kind when it comes to the Second Amendment. Bans, restrictions, takings, you name it. Illinois believes the government has more rights than you do, and when they can’t take the guns, they write laws that make it as difficult as possible to carry them for self-defense. In their … Read more
Mark Cuban has discovered that not everyone hates Donald Trump as much as he does. The former Trump is okay guy turned “can’t stand him” published a poll on X (still pronounced Twitter), and I have to think he was expecting a different result. Why else post it at all? What he got was egg … Read more
Another third-world disease is rearing its head in the United States. The Oropouche virus is here, linked almost exclusively to travel from Cuba, and it’s got an interesting nickname. Sloth. And while not necessarily fatal, the “experts,” as in, we still think it’s a good idea for pregnant women to get the COVID vaccine, are … Read more
It has become impossible to do business in some parts of Chicago, where unprosecuted crime and rampant lawlessness have driven grocery and retail stores out of the city. We covered this last year. Unable to guarantee employee safety or economic viability, everyone from mom-and-pops to Wal-Mart has closed up shop. The result is “food deserts.” The Chicago … Read more
The Vermont Department of Health is still promoting the CDC’s childhood vaccination schedule, suggesting a COVID-19 shot for children as early as six months. Children were neither at risk nor a vector and effectively immune until we started jabbing them. It says pregnant moms should get one, too, absent comprehensive or accurate and complete informed … Read more
New Hampshire Fish and Game has a problem you’ll be familiar with. Things are getting more expensive, and (no coincidence) fishing and hunting license sales have fallen off. The Fishy Game folks don’t think they’ll have enough money to do everything they do. Okay, do less? That’s what we have to do. We, the People, … Read more
Joe somebody was president for a few years, at least in name. His accomplishments were so great and so good that Democrats were terrified of the electoral consequences. In a fugue, they arranged for Joe to make a fool of himself during a national debate so their compliant media could parrot in unison how Joe … Read more
The aggravation over the failure of the turbine blade at Vinyard Wind continues to escalate. The foam and fiberglass that have plagued Nantucket all summer finally made it to Martha’s Vineyard. It seems appropriate, given the offshore farm’s name. But these alien invaders were not so quickly dispatched as the “migrants” were last year. In … Read more
Dan Richard appeared before the court on Friday for oral arguments in his case against the State of New Hampshire. He made time to update us over the weekend (on Facebook), which I’ve captured and shared with Rumble so non-facebook folks can check it out. Dan has been on a tireless crusade to get the … Read more
The Feds have a problem, and it is a big one. A Federal Judge in Kansas just dismissed charges against a man for “illegally” owning a machine gun. The court said that, as these are bearable arms and the State failed miserably to prove historical precedent for any restriction, the case was thrown out. On … Read more
New Hampshire has had its share of voting irregularities, both investigated (poorly, but still) and those not. But none of the local efforts to move to paper ballots, even in towns where it wouldn’t even begin to be a hardship (which is all but a few), have succeeded. People either don’t care to show up … Read more
This started with me looking to share the words of Mark Schmitz, the Gold Star Father of Marine Lance Corporal Jared M. Schmitz. He had some thoughts to for Ms. Kamala Harris that I found … informative. He wanted to set the record straight about President Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetary, how Kamala got … Read more
One of the risks of writing about hurricanes a day before the content is published is that they can form in the interim. This has happened to me before, but not so much this year. That’s odd. All the indicators suggested a knock-down drag-out storm-a-palooza of a season. It has yet to materialize only days … Read more
Neither Mike Bordes nor Travis O’Hara should be allowed to go back to Concord, and while they’d be better than most Democrats, you’d actually have to show up for that to work, which makes this rather amusing. Bordes wrote an Op-Ed for the Laconia Daily Sun, pimping O’Hara as prepared and present for County Delegation … Read more
Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNE) has been complaining for months about how it won’t make as much money as it likes—a “shortfall,” they call it. The response is to threaten services and whine about the political climate in a part of the country where states enshrine a right to their services into their … Read more
The DNC Convention was a COVID-19 super-spreader event. Reports suggest almost everyone who attended knows someone who contracted COVID-19 at the convention. They’ve been sharing their woes on social media along with images of positive tests. Please excuse my Shadenfrued, but the most “mRNA-vaccinated” collective of human flesh on planet Earth can’t stop telling us … Read more
Rumor has it Geno Marconi opposed developing offshore wind in the Gulf of Maine. I have also heard from fishermen (through a third party) that Geno opposed the redevelopment of Rye Harbor, which would wipe out the shacks and kick out local business owners. If that’s true, it is no mystery why Geno was put … Read more
A handful of Substacks ago, I asked a question. If the migrant invasion is not displacement, what is it? Is its purpose rising crime, record drug overdoses, overburdened towns, cities, schools, families, resources, and so on? What’s the point of it? And if it is none of those things, are you trying to replace the domestic population? Woven … Read more
A story about corruption in California isn’t likely to surprise anyone, or that Los Angeles might be the corruption Mecca. It’s a big city with lots of Libs, a lot of money, one-party rule, and a bit of political corruption. How much? Four LA city council members have been investigated in the past year, with … Read more
At the end of WWI, Europe went from three republics to thirteen. There was a hustle and bustle to embrace constitutions and parliamentary government all amidst the economic, societal, and cultural ruin of a war that completely redefined the political lines of a region that had known little but authoritarian rule. Russia’s response was Bolshevism … Read more
